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.

"If you don't have anything to do, how about if you help out scouting?" Shieli turned her head around to look at Neo.
"Ah? Don't I need to rest too."
"That's Shiro."
"But I'll also need energy for tonight."
"It's important for a sniper to know the target location of his job. If you don't want to scout, I'll report to Boss."
Neo: "…" what's with the difference in treatment?
He wanted to cry but no tears were coming out. Looking at Shiro, he noticed that the latter had already pretended to be sleeping. Before he could protest, Shieli already ushered him out to search for information and position for sniping tonight.
"Where do you plan to stay tonight, Shiro?"
Shiro peeked his head out of his blanket. "I'll just position myself on top of the hospital. There's a tower that Kevin had built."
