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.

Boss, You Are Not Allowed to Get Close with Her
"In your opinion, how many people disappeared during that time?" Mike asked with a confused expression.
"There are not many," Neo said with a smile, but his smile disappeared when he noticed that a lot of people requested leave at the same time. The time they left also varied from one week to one month.
Tommy returned completely after around three weeks, during which he also occasionally appeared in the school. Seeing the list reach thousands, Neo didn't know what to say anymore. Why did everyone ask for a leave at the same time?
"It's not far after Valentine's Day. A lot of people have their honeymoon," Mike explained as if he could guess what Neo was thinking.
"How do you know about this? Are you thinking about taking that girl out on a date?"
Mike smiled. "Who knows?"
"Mike, it's not that I oppose your relationship, but do you think you can manage to have two lives at the same time?" Neo asked.
