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.

Group is Independent
"Tommy, that's not our group phone, right?" Kanae's eyes turned sharper. There was only a limited number of people who knew Tommy's number. This boy was not popular in school, so there was almost no one who knew his number.
Jason immediately took his I-Pad and handed it to Kanae. On the other hand, Shiro brought the phone to Tommy. These two were wounded badly, so they needed help from others to be able to reach these items.
"Kanae, have you finished the preparation?"
"You can pick it up now," Kanae answered as her hand was still busy with the I-Pad. On the side, Jason already picked his laptop and also constructed a blockade of jamming signals to avoid getting tapped.
Tommy answered the phone. "Hello, who is this?"
His phone displayed a stranger's number, so he tried to be cautious. After all, he knew that he rarely gave his phone number to anyone, so he had to be careful to not leave any trace of him being Tom.
"Hello, Tommy."
