Under the Veil of Night

In the City of Crime, one law stands above them all: Only the strongest can live. Fighting is normal, extortion is common, and death is inevitable. Born into a wealthy family yet forced to live in poverty, Kanae Nali vowed to become strong enough to take back what rightfully belonged to her—even if it meant that she had to face the consequences and brave the dangers lurking in every corner. Yet on the outside, just like her mysterious peers, she was no different from the other high school students living their lives to the fullest. “Under the ray of light, my ability will only make me die faster. Under the veil of night, my ability allows me to survive longer.” ____ Story set in fictional city. Any similarities with real world's event is purely coincidence.

Advance Preparation

The Wells Family Residence

Jason returned back to his home after sending Kanae home. He didn't park the car inside his house but rather hid it away in some remote place in Black Street. Afterwards, he walked directly to his home while fiddling on his phone to make sure that he erased the traces of his trip just now.

Ting!

"Young Master, welcome back home," Jason's butler greeted him directly as soon as he opened the gate.

Seeing the old man before him, Jason pursed his lips. "It's already late at night. Did anyone come searching for me?"

"Company A CEO came to…."

Listening to the list of the powerful people who made a visit, Jason made a mental note to talk to them later. He entered the living room and called the servant to prepare hot water for him to wash up.
