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.

Imprisoned
Nali Family Mansion (Frank and Sakura Home)
Frank stared at the corpse of his daughter with rage filled his entire body. He was busy with his own matter recently because of the case with Kanae and many others. As Sakura was already grown up, he let her on her own device. Nothing should have happened to her, so why did he receive her corpse so suddenly?
BANG!
Banging the table in front of him, his eyes were red with rage and sadness. He only has one daughter. He loved her so much that he couldn't bear with losing her.
"Where do you find her?"
"Replying to Master, we find her in the Blue Sky Street."
Frank frowned. He knew that it was the street towards Kanae's mansion as he already passed that area for a long time. When he thought the possibility of the two of them doing this, rage filled his eyes again.
"Are they in the mansion during the time of death?"
