Chapter 204: Huh!

Kimura Kazuki came to the bedside and lifted Natsuna Yamanaka off the bed, dropping her on the floor directly.

After all, this was his room and his bed. He would not want anyone to dirty his bed when he herself had yet to even sleep in it.

He put in so much effort just to capture her, to lure her off the internet that he even crossdressed. It was finally his time to be rewarded.

Kimura Kazuki stared at Natsuna Yamanaka with nothing but coldness in his eyes. There was no further need to appear as a woman, so he returned to his normal voice and ordered in a cold tone, “Say it... Who is the one giving you instructions?”

Lying on the floor, Natsuna Yamanaka stared intently at Kimura Kazuki with wide, black eyes. She suddenly found her tongue again, and so she croaked, “Your... your voice!”

Hearing this, Kimura Kazuki paid no attention to her as he stopped in front of the sofa in the living room, picking up the bag containing his male clothing. He then went into the bathroom and stood in front of the mirror and used “Mask of a Thousand Changes” to restore his face. Then, he changed out of the female clothes and stepped into his male clothing.

Having restored his original appearance, he looked in the mirror and furrowed his brows ever so slightly... He felt as though his face had turned softer and less manly as compared to before. Evidently, the use of “Mask of a Thousand Changes” had caused his facial bone structure to soften. It seemed like the pain would be less intense for the next time he used “Mask of a Thousand Changes.”

While thinking, Kimura Kazuki came into the bedroom and glanced at Natsuna Yamanaka, who was staring at the ceiling and seemed to be deep in thought.

After Kimura Kazuki returned to the room, he had not muttered a single word.

Having witnessed Kimura Kazuki’s majestic transformation, Natsuna Yamanaka sighed, a helpless smile plastered on her terrifying face, “You are indeed an Extraordinary Individual, are you here to capture me?”

Kimura Kazuki raised a curious brow at Natsuna Yamanaka and said, “Your conscience and thinking seem to be working quite well.” Natsuna Yamanaka’s powers were not strong, they were only worth the same as the First Foundation State. In the past, this type of demon would not even produce a conscience, let alone this sort of clear conscience and thinking observed in Natsuna Yamanaka.

This can be easily observed from Natsuna Yamanaka’s demeanor. Generally speaking, demons of the First Foundation State do not have consciences, let alone have thoughts.

They could get furious at literally anything and kill everyone in sight! Once their power exceeds a certain level, then only they would gradually generate a conscience, but not to the point where they become as intelligent as Natsuna Yamanaka. Only those who have gone through the Metamorphosis State would have consciences and thinking processes like those of ordinary people.

To say that nobody was supporting Natsuna Yamanaka, Kimura Kazuki would be the first to express disbelief. So, he repeated the same question from earlier, “Say it, say who is the one instructing you to come out and kill.”

Lying on the ground, Natsuna Yamanaka had exercised all means thinking of an escape route. Still, she could not manage to break free of the ferocious claws of the Spirit Immobilizing Talisman. She knew that there was no way out this time, so when it came to answering Kimura Kazuki’s question, she laid out her honesty.

“Yes...” However, right as Natsuna Yamanaka’s lips parted to reveal the name of the mastermind behind all of this, her face twisted in pain suddenly. Her terrifying face began distorting in pain, and fear flashed through her eyes as she stared at Kimura Kazuki, barely forcing out the words, “Save... Save... Me...”

The very next moment, Natsuna Yamanaka’s conscience suddenly exploded. The next moment, Natsuna Yamanaka’s face was horribly distorted, her eyes spilling with fury. She glared at Kimura Kazuki and produced a sound as if her throat had been cut. As of this moment, a rhombus-shaped black gem at Natsuna Yamanaka’s chest transformed into a dark ray of light and fled out the window.

However, in a split second, the gem flew back into Kimura Kazuki’s hand, attracted by his internal reiki. He used reiki to look through the dark material of the gem and eyed the demon lying on the ground without any consciousness.

“Huh.” The corners of Kimura Kazuki’s lips curled upwards as a sneer escaped.

Subsequently, he picked up his phone and dialed Ryo Otake’s phone. Before Ryo Otake could speak, he bluntly said, “The murderer has been captured... I am now at Weier Apartment, you should come over.”

Upon hearing that, Ryo Otake could not help the surprise brewing in him. Already? The thought that the murderer was not a person but a specter struck him, and he asked in an unsettled manner, “Do I have to bring anyone?”

“Come over alone.” Having thought for a bit, Kimura Kazuki decided to let Ryo Otake come alone as they could decide on their next step then.

Very quickly, Ryo Otake arrived at Weier Apartment.

He pressed the doorbell and waited anxiously. During the noon, when Kimura Kazuki entered the police station, his magnificent good looks stunned everyone on the spot. Even he, in his middle years, was attracted to him, and this was scary.

When Kimura Kazuki opened the door, Ryo Otake could not help the sigh of relief escaping his lips as he noticed that his appearance had returned to normal.

“Come on in.”

Upon receiving his cue, Ryo Otake entered the room. As soon as he strode into the living room and the view of Natsuna Yamanaka entered his field of vision, he let out a yelp and fell back onto his bottom, terror sprawled all over his face.

A long moment later, he realized that the wraith before him was unable to move, and his vigorously thumping heart finally calmed down.

Under normal circumstances, ordinary people are not able to see apparitions. However, since Natsuna Yamanaka was imprisoned by the Spirit Immobilizing Talisman, the figure of her body was visible.

Wiping the cold sweat off his forehead, Ryo Otake said with his mouth dry, “This... is the murderer.” He walked up to stand next to Kimura Kazuki and looked down at Natsuna Yamanaka, unable to bring himself to go any closer.

Only when he was by Kimura Kazuki’s side did he feel a sense of security.

“That’s right,” Kimura Kazuki added faintly, “But because of an incident, she has lost her consciousness and is now no different from a beast.”

Ryo Otake gulped, and after calming himself slightly, he forced a smile, “Even if she had consciousness... We can’t get much out of questioning her anyways. It’s optimal if we hand this over to specialists.”

Kimura Kazuki nodded. Diverting his attention to Ryo Otake, he warned, “I can temporarily hand this wraith to you, but... three days. Three days later, after you are done with the records, you must return it to me.”

“What... Can I know the reason?” The need to return the murderer after it was caught was puzzling to Ryo Otake. Could it be that the world of the extraordinary people was different from the ordinary world?

Asking for it to be returned was naturally just so that he could absorb the demon as reiki, nothing more. If it was not for the fact that he had agreed to help, Kimura Kazuki would have directly absorbed it without even bothering to drop Ryo Otake a call.

Learning this, Ryo Otake could not help the astonishment displayed on his face. So this is how ‘Extraordinary Individuals’ train?

Thinking, he hesitated, “This... I...” Before he could finish, he watched as coldness gradually took over Kimura Kazuki’s eyes. All of a sudden, a thought struck him, and he felt like slapping himself. They had come so far, and he was still indecisive? With that thought, he swiftly promised, “Rest assured! After we’ve completed the records, I will return this wraith to you!” At this moment, he kept his head hung low, and respect was laced in his voice.

Kimura Kazuki nodded slightly, grabbed the keys from the coffee table, and handed them over to Ryo Otake. “This is the key to the apartment. I have something on right now. As for the wraith, you can just have the specialists transport it out of here.”

“Ah, okay then!” Ryo Otake did not say much else.

Subsequently, he followed Kimura Kazuki downstairs and sat down on a random bench... Obviously, he dared not stay in that room at all.

Watching Kimura Kazuki’s figure shrinking in the distance, he began thinking hard on how to inform the specialists about the entire situation.
