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.

Destroying the place (2)
While Kevin was destroying the suspicious place in his territory, Kanae contacted the Souhon Clan and the Lighting Gang to make the move against the abandoned building in their territory. They contacted the clan and the gang separately in case the other kept some of the results of the investigation a secret. As the third in command of the Souhon Clan, it was easy for them to ask something from the clan.
"They're the one who are in danger, so why are we the one who become busy?" Tommy asked when they gathered at their usual meeting place in the abandoned building.
"If they manage to finish the weapon, we're going to be one of the targets. Do you think they will let go of a perfect guinea pig like us?" Shiro rolled his eyes.
"I'm not a guinea pig!"
"You're the most perfect one. No one will search for you even if you disappear for days!"
