That state of utter disarray, more ruthless than herself.

But why was her sister so popular?

Death is like life flashing before one’s eyes.

In the heart of this female detective, from her childhood, through her adolescence, to the battlefield, and now, to the present.

She suddenly realized that it was only recently that she had been truly happy.

Was it the tranquility of the cafe?

The leisure of day-to-day life?

No, it wasn’t.

It was... Jason!

It was Jason who took her into a real world, showing her the most authentic side of life.

Even though it was dangerous, she didn’t hate it.

After all, the battlefield, with its barrage of gunfire, was just as perilous.

But...

Nowhere near as thrilling as now.

Alas, this is where it ends.

My journey is over.

Still unwilling to let go!

With such a cry in her heart, the female detective closed her eyes.

She quietly awaited the arrival of death.

Though reluctant, she was remarkably calm.

The baptism of the battlefield had long accustod her to this.

But then, one second, two seconds passed.

The expected agony did not co.

The detective opened her eyes.

A tall and robust figure overshadowed her from behind.

The sharp gust of wind was slicing against this figure.

This figure remained unscathed.

The sharp gust scattered and crumbled, turning into a gentle breeze that blew in all directions.

Under the night sky, beside the streetlamp.

This towering, solid figure was like a city wall, tall and substantial, offering a reassuring presence.

"Jason?!"

The female detective exclaid with joy.

But Jason did not respond.

He gestured with his hand and took big strides towards the Hanakaiin Itsuki.

The curiosity in his eyes intensified.

The Hanakaiin Itsuki had ’food’ on him!

Just like Hanakaiin Haru, there were three decent ’foods’, one good ’food’, and one extrely tempting ’food’.

Originally, when Jason t Hanakaiin Ue and found no ’food’ on him, he thought Hanakaiin Haru was an exception. But after eting the Hanakaiin Itsuki, Jason realized.

Hanakaiin Ue was the exception.

Perhaps not valued?

Jason didn’t know any more.

However, he knew that the Hanakaiin Itsuki in front of him was not to be missed.

He was hungry!

Hanakaiin Itsuki sensed sothing different about Jason.

The most obvious sign was that his recent attack had no effect.

More perceptible was that, to his senses, behind Jason, a huge, dark monster lood, howling at him.

It was a heart-trembling howl.

"Bloodline of a demon?

"Or...?"

"A concentration of killing intent?"

Hanakaiin Itsuki couldn’t determine precisely, but it didn’t hinder his attack.

Whoosh! Whoosh whoosh!

One sharp gust of wind after another appeared.

Jason paid them no mind, continuing to advance.

Snap, snap snap!

The sharp winds slicing at Jason’s body made crisp noises.

Cuts appeared on Jason’s clothes, but Jason himself was completely unhard.

Even these winds that could split a person in half had no power to halt his steps.

"’Immovable King’s Body’!"

"Such formidable secret teachings of the Tongshou Temple!"

Watching Jason approach step by step, Hanakaiin Itsuki was not panicked at all, but instead laughed again.

Such a sincere smile.

As if he was truly impressed by the secret teachings of Tongshou Temple.

But in his eyes, Hanakaiin Itsuki’s sinister intent intensified.

As an heir of the Hanakaiin Family cadet branch, he couldn’t possibly be unaware of what the ’Immovable King’s Body’ represented.

Overpowering an era.

Suppressing countless prodigies.

Normally, he would take it as a rumor or a jest.

After all, no one knew better than he did what the family records were like.

Exaggeration, distortion, were all too common.

Even completely fabricating stories was not unusual.

Thus, to the so-called ’Immovable King’s Body’, Hanakaiin Itsuki held a disdainful attitude.

He thought that even if the ’Immovable King’s Body’ did exist, it must be an exaggeration.

At best, it was just that the ’Vajra Body’ had reached a certain extre level.

But the successive attacks just now were telling him that the rumors seed to be true.

Although not to the extent where one could ignore the attacks of great demons, being able to withstand half of his attack power had far exceeded the scope of the ’Vajra Body’.

Or rather, the ’Vajra Body’ simply couldn’t reach such a level.

Trouble!

Unnecessary trouble!

Watching Jason approaching closer and closer, Hanakaiin Itsuki felt a wave of irritation welling up inside him.

He hated situations that were out of his control.

Once faced with such a situation, he felt like having a cup of milk tea—double sugar.

But right now, he could not simply walk away.

Irritation → Wanting milk tea (double sugar) → Cannot have it → Irritation 1 → Wanting milk tea (double sugar) → Cannot have it → Irritation 2...

A vicious cycle made the smile on Hanakaiin Itsuki’s face completely disappear at this mont.

Only frowning brows remained.

The eyes filled with a sinister aura flashed with malice and murderous intent.

But it vanished in a flash.

Because, he saw Hanakaiin Haru.

If facing Jason, who has mastered the Tongshou Temple’s secret technique ’Immovable King’s Body’, and he unleashed all his efforts and secret techniques, he still held a few chances of victory, but adding Hanakaiin Haru to the equation...

No chance of winning at all!

"Jason, huh?"

"I’ll rember you."

"Then..."

"We’ll et again next ti."

Hanakaiin Itsuki once again revealed a smile, and even waved his hand at Jason.

Then, a layer of illusory light appeared on the body of this young Onmyoji from the Hanakaiin Family.

If there’s no chance of winning, then just leave outright.

Procrastination is not Hanakaiin Itsuki’s style.

But at this mont—

Boom, boom boom!

Sounds like war drums suddenly erupted.

They reverberated through the streets, drawing people’s gazes.

Yes, it was Jason!

The once thodical steps forward Jason was taking suddenly accelerated.

His whole being shot forward like an arrow released from its bow, closing the distance to Hanakaiin Itsuki.

Then, he raised his hand and grabbed.

Hanakaiin Itsuki subconsciously tried to dodge.

But he didn’t manage to avoid it.

Because Jason wasn’t aiming to grab Hanakaiin Itsuki himself, but rather the spot on Hanakaiin Itsuki’s garnts that was wafting the scent of ’food’.

Rip!

Hanakaiin Itsuki’s clothes were torn apart just like that.

A straw doll the size of a palm fell out, caught by Jason.

anwhile, the illusory light on Hanakaiin Itsuki’s body reached its peak.

This young man from the Hanakaiin Family stared at Jason.

His look was filled with astonishnt and disbelief.

And then he disappeared on the spot.

Jason, however, casually put the straw doll into his backpack.

The entire process was smooth and unhesitant.

Watching this, Hanakaiin Haru’s eyes twitched.

How could this be so familiar?

It seems like this happens often?

Hanakaiin Haru thought to himself.

Jason, anwhile, ignored the other’s strange gazes.

Upon seeing Hanakaiin Itsuki, Jason knew it wasn’t possible to have a real fight, not just because the Hanakaiin Family’s separate residence was right behind him, but also because Hanakaiin Haru was here.

Therefore, Jason never intended to capture all the ’food’ on Hanakaiin Itsuki in one fell swoop.

Better to have one bird in the hand than ten in the bush.

Jason was very clear about this principle.

What he understood even more was the strategy of playing a long ga to catch a big fish.

Look at Hanakaiin Itsuki’s eyes when he left.

The other party will definitely co looking for him again!

Even if they don’t, they will et again.

Don’t forget the ’King of Fighters – The Tournant’!

The other party is a seeded player.

"Jason, Jason, are you alright?"

The straightforward Sagaraso girl ca running over sowhat belatedly.

But before Sagaraso could reach him, Hui Lijing stepped aside, blocking Sagaraso’s path to Jason.

The tall female detective not only completely obstructed Sagaraso’s view of Jason but also took off her own long leather coat and draped it over Jason.

After doing all this, the female detective turned to stand beside Jason, looking down at Sagaraso with a commanding gaze.

Sagaraso was taken aback, but then defiantly raised her head to et the female detective’s stare.

The atmosphere beca tense.

Hanakaiin Haru blinked and looked at Jason with a slightly mocking expression.

Jason, completely unaffected, walked straight into the alley, his voice utterly indifferent—

"I’m hungry, ti to eat."
