Yama Reborn-Chapter 543 - 540: [Murder]

Chapter 540 [Murder]

Jinling Lukou International Airport.

Sun Keke, walking out of the exit, caught the eyes of many onlookers with her charming figure.

Even though it was early spring and people in Jinling were still wearing thick coats,

the girl’s captivating appearance and beautiful face still turned heads.

Moreover...

"Ah! Fatty Sun!"

Li Yingwan ran out from the exit, pulling her suitcase, her long legs particularly eye-catching.

Xicheng Xun and Nivelle walked leisurely behind.

The four beauties gathered together, instantly increasing the attention by more than tenfold.

"We agreed this time, no one is allowed to see Chen Nuo oppa! To be fair, no breaking the rule!"

Li Yingwan widened her eyes and looked sternly at her three companions.

Xicheng Xun remained silent, just observing indifferently around, while Nivelle nodded in agreement.

Li Yingwan’s gaze fell on Sun Keke.

Honestly, the girls all had a sense.

When it came to feelings, perhaps, in this world, aside from the Great Devil called the Star Sky Empress, only Sun Keke truly walked into Chen Nuo’s heart.

And the others, not really.

Sun Keke’s impact on Chen Nuo’s feelings far exceeded the combined influence of the other girls.

Faced with Li Yingwan’s gaze, Sun Keke’s expression was calm, nodding slightly.

"I won’t go to see him, I just want to visit my family."

Sun Keke’s calm demeanor slightly surprised the other three girls.

It seemed as if, having set foot in Jinling, Sun Keke’s entire temperament had become a bit colder.

Thinking back over this period, since Sun Keke joined the trio, turning it into a quartet...

This originally weak and ordinary School belle Sun, through missions, underwent a stunning transformation!

This transformation was not only a rapid improvement in strength but a complete change in temperament.

Initially, Sun Keke simply followed the other three’s commands, acting as a newcomer.

But after several missions, unknowingly, she became the centerpiece of the team.

Even the strongest in their team, Xicheng Xun, inadvertently ceded the core position to Sun Keke.

In one secret conversation, Xicheng Xun told Nivelle and Li Yingwan,

that Sun Keke’s strength had already surpassed her own.

The trio combined wasn’t a match for Sun Keke anymore.

Sun Keke didn’t even take the same car with them, bidding farewell to the trio at the airport, taking a direct taxi towards No. 8 Middle School.

She arrived at the school just as it was time for the students to be released in the afternoon.

From afar, she saw Old Jiang coming out with his hands behind his back, followed by two submissive students.

Old Jiang noticed Sun Keke, initially stunned, then smiled and said, "Keke, you’re back? Finished with the exchange in Neon Country?"

Sun Keke displayed a pure, blossoming smile: "Hello, Teacher Jiang. I’m back to handle some paperwork for the school, just a few days, then I’ll return."

Old Jiang squinted his eyes, assessing Sun Keke: "Hmm, after being outside for over half a year, your aura has matured quite a bit."

He waved his hand: "Hurry home. Your dad just got off work; he’s probably home now."

Watching Sun Keke leave, Old Jiang turned back with a stern face and began reprimanding the two boys behind him.

The two boys, initially staring blankly at Sun Keke, were knocked on the head by Old Jiang.

"Look, look! What are you staring at! She’s your senior, now in her sophomore year. Look at her, coming from No. 8 Middle School, doing well in college, and went to a university exchange in Neon Country. You must all work hard, understand?"

One of the boys couldn’t help but ask, "Teacher, if I study well, can I find a girlfriend as pretty as the senior?"

Old Jiang: "..."

Smack! Another slap on the head: "Get back to your questions!"

·

Sun Keke returned to the staff residential building of No. 8 Middle School, climbed the stairs, and heard the sound of the television through the door.

Upon opening the door, she saw Old Sun dozing off on the living room sofa, though the TV was on the news channel.

Hearing the door, Old Sun instantly opened his eyes, initially confused, and upon seeing his beloved daughter at the door, his face lit up with joy and surprise.

"Keke! Why are you back? You didn’t tell us!"

Old Sun, though aged, leapt off the sofa, took three steps to reach Keke, grabbed her suitcase, and pulled her inside.

"...Dad." Sun Keke pursed her lips, looking closely at Old Sun, her eyes slightly red.

"What’s wrong? Did someone bully you outside?" Old Sun’s expression changed instantly.

"No, no one bullied me." Sun Keke hugged her father’s arm, resting her head on Old Sun’s shoulder: "It’s just... I missed home, missed you both."

With his daughter back, Old Sun was instantly energetic, first calling his wife to come home early.

Then he rushed into the kitchen to prepare dinner.

Although Old Sun couldn’t cook, he was capable of washing and cutting ingredients.

Sun Keke stood at the kitchen door with a glass of water, staring, almost entranced, at her father’s back as he bent over to chop vegetables.

Moments later, after attending to the vegetables, Old Sun pondered: "Shall I go downstairs to get half a duck? Or buy some pig head meat? Keke, do you want cold seaweed salad?"

"Not really." Sun Keke snapped out of it, pulling her father out of the kitchen to sit on the sofa, leaning against him: "Dad, sit with me for a while, I missed you both."

Old Sun remained uneasy: "Are you sure no one bullied you?"

Sun Keke grinned: "Really, no one."

Their father-daughter conversation continued, with Sun Keke citing that her university project in Neon Country had a temporary break, leaving her with some days off, prompting a visit home.

Old Sun, embodying the typical Huaxia parental love, rambled on:

[Ah, it’s just a short break. Why the special trip home? You should rest while you can.]

[Nothing urgent at home; your mom and I are in good health. No need to worry; focus on your work.]

[Spending on a plane ticket just to see us once, it’s so costly. Save it, eat well in Tokyo; you look thinner.]

[Do you have enough money? Tokyo’s living costs are high, I’ve heard. Don’t skimp; eat well. I heard the portions are small, one bite and it’s gone. Don’t save, eat what you like! Dad has money.]

Sun Keke simply listened to her father’s chatter, speaking little – as if this seemingly mundane rambling provided her with the strength she needed. 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶

Only when Old Sun began rummaging through his bag for his bank card to transfer money to her did Sun Keke stop him.

"Dad, really, there’s no need. I have enough money. The allowance you gave me is still unspent. Plus, the exchange program provides scholarships, and meals at the school are free."

Actually, Sun Keke dared not tell Old Sun.

That her card now held six million.

Knife blow!

It was the income from the quartet’s various commissioned jobs over the past half year, distributed according to contribution.

When tallied, Sun Keke surprisingly received the largest share.

In the past half-year, Sun Keke realized why Chen Nuo always seemed affluent and never worried about money.

This group of Special Ability Users truly makes a fortune!

·

Actually, the reason for Sun Keke’s insistence on going home was that she felt something was amiss with her mind.

To be precise, her emotions had reached a critical point.

The direct trigger was...

Sun Keke...

Had killed someone!

·

A week ago, during an assignment, Sun Keke, for the first time in her life, killed someone.

The target was a scum who, by all accounts, deserved to die.

The kind whose sins are beyond redemption, deserving of being executed for an hour.

By all rights, people like that, if they’re killed, they’re killed, special ability users...

Almost every special ability user Sun Keke has dealt with, hasn’t had blood on their hands?

Chen Nuo... goes by the nickname Yama.

Star Sky Empress... Son of the Sun, whether it’s the noodle shop’s Boss Guo, or a girl like Xicheng Xun.

Whose hands aren’t stained with blood.

But...

For the first time in her life, killing someone, Sun Keke was still emotionally shattered.

When she killed, she was in a daze.

It’s as if some force in the shadows was supporting her, throughout the action, she was cold and calm.

Even after shooting the target dead, she could still step forward to confirm the target’s death.

During the retreat, she didn’t say a single unnecessary word.

But!

After returning to the safe house with the team, Sun Keke finally broke down.

She started vomiting crazily.

To the point where she almost vomited out her gall, her face ashen, her legs weak, just sitting by the toilet in the bathroom, unable to stand.

It was Xicheng Xun who carried her back to the room and tossed her onto the bed.

Poured her a cup of hot tea, then, this little Tokyo disaster with a cold face, told Sun Keke.

"Adapt to it! Try to adapt to this feeling!

If you can’t adapt, go back to school and be an ordinary person!"

That night she didn’t sleep a single second, eyes wide open staring at the ceiling until dawn.

And Li Yingwan, who always opposed Sun Keke, surprisingly, that night, didn’t say a word to attack Sun Keke, remaining silent the whole time.

Sun Keke found out later, that the cup of tea Xicheng Xun brought was made by Li Yingwan.

The next day, Sun Keke even asked Li Yingwan why she didn’t take the chance to go against her last night.

Li Yingwan stayed silent for a while, then gave an answer.

"Last month, when I killed for the first time, it was just as painful, I know that feeling."

·

Sun Keke lay on her bed at home.

A room she’s most familiar with, the bed she’s slept in since she was a kid, the sheets with the familiar scent of the laundry powder her family uses.

This smell made Sun Keke’s heart feel a little more at ease.

She turned over, changed her posture.

Instinctively picked up her phone, hesitated for a moment, but ultimately didn’t call that familiar number.

The girl lay on the bed, finally putting down the phone.

The ceiling light was already old and rusted, the rust visible at the edges.

Sun Keke just stared at it.

After a while, the girl mumbled to herself.

"I want to help him! I can definitely help him! Yun Yin said I can become strong!"

·

"What do you guys think, after Fatty Sun went home, wouldn’t he be hiding in his room crying under the covers?"

Li Yingwan sat on the sofa, tapping her feet, carefully applying nail polish, casually asked.

Nivelle had a face mask on while doing yoga.

On the other side of the room, Xicheng Xun sat cross-legged, a small tachi across her legs, silently meditating.

Nivelle raised an eyebrow, glanced at the clock, took off her mask, and slowly said, "That guy is a lot stronger than you think."

Li Yingwan snorted: "What’s so strong about her, I remember after the first time she killed, she was out of it for three whole days."

Xicheng Xun opened her eyes: "Well done, Li Yingwan, you’ve learned to use idioms. ’Out of it’ is very accurate."

Li Yingwan was pleased: "Of course! I’ve watched the ’Legend of the White Snake’ for the third time! But I just can’t watch ’Princess Pearl’, the big-nosed guy in it is too annoying."

Xicheng Xun chuckled, slowly said: "Don’t underestimate Sun Keke, her strength has progressed very fast, I’m no longer her match."

Upon hearing this, Li Yingwan fell silent.

Strength, that’s what Li Yingwan resents the most.

In the current four-person team, strength-wise, she seems to be the weakest.

Initially, the strongest in the team was Xicheng Xun, no need to say, Xicheng Xun was already a remarkable special ability user when she met Chen Nuo.

The second strongest was Nivelle.

Nivelle, after all, was an extreme sports expert for years, with strong physical abilities.

Li Yingwan and Sun Keke both appeared as ordinary soft girls.

Unexpectedly, now Sun Keke has made leaps and bounds, directly becoming the core of the team.

In several missions, it was Sun Keke’s great might that defeated the strongest opponents.

But Li Yingwan isn’t useless either.

She has her strengths, for example, her stubborn personality makes her mentally resilient.

To put it bluntly, in her past life, Firefly, later on, became a killing madman who didn’t bat an eyelid.

It’s true she suffered tragedy, with her home and family destroyed.

But inherently, she was always a stubborn person.

Furthermore, Li Yingwan has a great talent for body techniques, various combat skills, and fighting techniques she learns quickly.

In this life, she’s gradually walking down the path of Firefly’s abilities.

She’s also proficient in various weapons and firearms.

In terms of special ability, currently, it’s just at the entry-level, meaning her spiritual power is stronger than most.

With the various experiences of the underground world, Li Yingwan’s adaptability is much stronger than Sun Keke.

The first time she killed someone, this long-legged girl also had a mental breakdown.

But it was just a brief moment.

The next day, she recovered around 50%. By the third day, she could normally begin her self-torture training.

As for Nivelle...

Sometimes Li Yingwan even thinks this peach-bottomed maniac is the real madman.

Because Nivelle seems to have no psychological barrier to killing.

Clearly saw blood yesterday.

The next day, she acts normal.

Li Yingwan curiously asked: Doesn’t it bother you? After all...

Nivelle calmly replied: "Why should I be bothered? I wasn’t the one who killed them."

What did she mean by that!

·

After they talked about Sun Keke, Li Yingwan changed the topic.

She looked at Xicheng Xun: "BOSS, are we really just idling in Jinling?"

"We’ll give Sun Keke a few days of vacation. After her vacation, if she recovers, we’ll go back to Tokyo."

"What if she doesn’t recover?" Li Yingwan asked.

"Then the three of us will go back to Tokyo," Xicheng Xun calmly said, "I have to train hard to make myself strong enough to help Ah Xiu! If any of you can’t keep up, I will abandon you without hesitation!"

Li Yingwan pouted: "I won’t fall behind, but... you’re the BOSS, you call the shots."

No choice, up until now, the four-person team mainly follows Xicheng Xun’s command.

Because in the team, only Xicheng Xun is a proper underground world’s special ability user.

The other three are newbies.

While the other three were still in school playing Asura Field games with Chen Nuo, Xicheng Xun was already the little Tokyo disaster star challenging the biggest shoe cult organization in Neon Country alone. Possessing a black-level membership USB from the Octopus Monster website.
