Every bit of affection that Misa gained was earned through hard work and giving to her husband, and she treasured these.
I watched it day and night to relieve my grievances.
She only forced herself to accept the marriage proposal in order to gain her boyfriend's love, so how could she bear to watch the data drop?
[Your arrival now is too drastic a change. Light Yagami already had some suspicions about you, and if he deduces the truth, his feelings for you will definitely plummet.]
The system's words made Misa Amane stop dialing the number.
"We must find a way. Haisa will never allow Yue to like someone else."
On the small TV screen, seeing Light Yagami accompanying Utaha Kasumigaoka, who had just returned, to pay respects to her grandmother, Misa Amane hurriedly puts on her little red hat.
Try to think hard.
Kasugano Sora also put it on, and they thought together.
"Perform a play!"
"Haisa, didn't you just draw the ability of telepathy? With the ability of sensory transfer, you can completely turn the tide of the battle."
With the principle of "one prospers, all prosper," Kasugano Sora quickly came up with a solution.
“As long as Haisa makes the excuse that she has no feelings and needs to see something exciting to feel them again, Yue will have a legitimate reason to cheat on you, and because of this, he will still feel guilty towards you.”
After shaking her head and finishing her speech, Kasugano Sora began to summarize: "Let's walk the path of Zilu again."
"Are you even going to take away a few minutes of Misa's time?" Misa whispered sadly, knowing that this was mainly an act for her boyfriend's benefit.
After all, it takes time for a woman to go from firmly opposing her boyfriend's infidelity to being eager to see him cheat.
"That's all we can do. Acting is Haisa's forte."
Chapter 122: Norwegian Wood
Kasumigaoka Utaha knelt before her grandmother's tombstone for a long time.
Her mother tried to curry favor with the Yagami family, but no one welcomed her; instead, she was constantly criticized.
"I want to write a book to record the places I've been."
Speaking of what she had seen and heard these past few days at the grave, from being assassinated by extremists to being welcomed by Kira's fanatics and enjoying state banquet-level hospitality... Kasumigaoka Utaha has transcended vulgar interests and turned to fight for the noblest cause of mankind.
This was also what Light Yagami was thinking. If nothing unexpected happened, he would travel alone to a distant land to continue searching for a solution.
"Grandma didn't have the opportunity to go to school. She was hungry as a child and her life seemed endless. After learning about Kira's existence, she was very happy and prayed for Kira devoutly every day."
"What should we pray for? We pray that Kira will not be discovered, that Kira will live a long life, and that Kira can change the world."
As she asked and answered herself, Kasumigaoka Utaha was already pressed close to Yagami Light.
The more I understand how great Kira's deeds are, the more I can comprehend his resolute determination to walk this path alone.
In many places, children starve to death due to poor medical conditions; even a minor cold can be fatal, let alone education. Meanwhile, in wealthy cities of developed countries, some children want an airplane as a birthday present.
The gap between the rich and the poor has widened to an enormous degree, with 98% of the wealth controlled by 2% of the population. This wealth rarely flows into the market; at most, it is transferred among them. If this continues, the environment will only deteriorate further.
"Grandma always said that Kira was amazing. Everyone thought that Kira was just an ordinary person who wanted to rebel against the false world ruled by the powerful clans. But you are the most powerful son of a country. You betrayed your own class."
Different people saying similar things can convey different meanings.
"You gained such profound insights from just one trip?"
Light Yagami smiled helplessly. Kasumigaoka Utaha had seen far too much these past few days, truly understanding the lowest levels of human life and witnessing all kinds of human evil.
The idea of equality for all people grew stronger in my heart.
"How about adding an extra layer of stamping for me?"
"No." Kasumigaoka Utaha refused decisively.
Her eyes were somewhat dazed. In the cities she visited, the Kira fanatics were the same, one after another, brimming with youthful energy and their eyes filled with longing for a new world.
Each one stands before them, waiting to be imprinted with a layer of ideology. After that, they will disperse to all parts of the world, using Kira's certified identity to dedicate their lives to seeking fairness and justice for the local people.
Because Kira is like this, so are his followers; only Kira like this can gain their trust.
“Those unfinished moral obligations will be carried on by successors, and I will also do my part for you. Your focus should be on finding new patients with the syndrome.”
Light Yagami was not discouraged by being rejected.
He then looked at Yukino Yukinoshita.
The bionic face mask has been removed, and the tail is furry and has a designated place to be placed.
"With great power comes great responsibility."
Almost all the heavy weapons were destroyed, leaving only some guns. After several attacks, Yukino Yukinoshita successfully protected Utaha Kasumigaoka.
If it weren't for Rio Futaba's teleportation device, the number of attacks would have doubled.
There are always people who want to stop Kira and his forces from growing stronger, because it will cost them their lives.
...
...
The grill is sizzling with oil, and the Little Red Riding Hood band is having a meal together.
The first day of Qingming Festival has been designated as Kira's Salvation Day by the world, becoming one of the two new holidays alongside Kira's Descent Day.
This is a holiday for the whole world.
Momoka Kawahara and Rupa, two heavy drinkers, raised their glasses and clinked them together.
They cheered and jumped for joy, and they themselves became light.
"Thank you Kira, for letting me end my 996 work schedule!"
"Thank you Kira, for giving my children access to education!"
"Thank you Kira, for making my mother eligible for health insurance!"
"Thank you, Kira, for lifting my country out of poverty!"
People were cheering for Kira everywhere. Misa Amane, with a piece of grilled meat between her fingers, felt like she had won a great victory.
After all, of the six people present, only she, An, and Subaru knew Yue's true identity.
The others were merely being used.
[Light Yagami's affection level for Yukino Yukinoshita and Utaha Kasumigaoka has reached 84 and 87, respectively.]
Clang! The chopsticks in her hand fell onto the table.
The other five members of the Little Red Riding Hood band looked over.
The concerned look made Misa Amane feel ashamed.
Her boyfriend's love for her is spreading, while her affection for Yukinoshita and Kasumigaoka is steadily increasing.
They share the same ideals and understand each other.
But I was the one hindering his progress.
The inability to develop feelings of affection, the attempt to compensate out of guilt, and the ongoing inner struggle.
"If you're feeling down, have a drink," Rupa said, drunkenly handing over a can of beer.
In an instant, Misa Amane's suppressed emotions erupted.
She took the can of beer.
"Bang~"
"Hai Sha is not an adult yet, so he can't drink alcohol."
"It's alright, we'll take care of bringing her back."
"Hehehe, let's join the adult world together."
"Another drunkard."
He took a few sips without thinking, the aroma of wheat lingering in his throat.
Misa Amane put one foot on the stool and sang loudly.
"See if I am still perfect in your heart, if you still care about me, and if you still love me uncontrollably."
"Are there places in my heart that I have never been?"
Her golden hair swayed, and she sang with a touch of melancholy, attracting the attention of the other drinkers nearby.
"The bright moon shines on the earth, hiding memories you don't want to mention. You said that true love can always turn back and true love can always last, so why is there still loneliness in your eyes?"
Jingqinrencai felt increasingly uneasy.
That's incredibly dedicated.
She tugged at Misa Amane's hand.
But they broke free.
"Am I just a crutch for you, filling the void in your heart? When will I be able to stay in that forest in your heart?"
"The bright white moon shines on the earth, hiding your deepest secret."
"Perhaps I shouldn't have asked, lest I stir up ripples in your peaceful heart again. But my love for you has crossed boundaries; I want to possess everything about you..."
Upside down, swaying and staggering.
Misa Amane's heartfelt singing was deafening.
She held the opened can of beer in her hand like a microphone, the golden waves swaying with her body.
Until the song ended.
The entire audience erupted in thunderous applause.
Even those who didn't know Little Red Riding Hood learned about the band through their companions' introductions and became fans because of the lead singer's energetic singing.
"Thank you everyone, I—" The drunken Misa collapsed into Momoka Kawara's arms.
Chapter 123: Desiring Love
Light Yagami was still hesitant; the remaining morality in his heart prevented him from betraying his lover.
Moreover, once discovered, the consequences are extremely serious.
Just like Ai Hoshino.
"I will try my best to keep you alive."
On Qingming Festival, Hoshino Ai had no one to pay her respects to. Yagami Light gave her company, which she had signed a contract with, a reason to be requisitioned, and came to the prison once again.
"Are you going to kill me?"
Hoshino Ai sat obediently in the chair, letting out a soft laugh as if a great weight had been lifted from her shoulders.
"I will keep you locked up until your identity is revealed, and I will try my best to protect you until then."
Light Yagami didn't intend to reveal too much information.
Killing someone is as simple as killing a chicken; just write down their name and recall what they look like.
We've dealt with quite a few rapists.
"I want to eat pudding pie, and your spicy diced chicken..."
Hoshino Ai talked about a lot of dishes.
"You know what? I've eaten a lot of food made by other chefs since then, but none of them have tasted the same as I did back then."
Tears streamed down her face.
Light Yagami couldn't bear to see this scene.
He remembered when he first met Ai Hoshino, she was pulled into the shop at a loss, and sat down, eating the pudding pie very carefully and cautiously.
"You've been wanting to eat this for a long time, right? Once you start working, you can have all the things you want."
"This kid stands outside every day," the shop assistant interjected.
Light Yagami paused for a moment, then asked the waiter to bring out all the dishes.
"If we can't finish it, we'll pack it up and take it home with Mom and Dad."
At this moment, Hoshino Ai said with tears in her eyes, "I live in an orphanage, and my mother went to jail for stealing."
