【L月L】Inquisitor

"That's the way it is, but I don't think there's any reason to be depressed because—"

"The information of Clover Company is here." Ye Shenyue spread out the latest investigation report on the table in front of him, "I already counted the data yesterday."

Ye Shenyue and L stared at each other for a moment.

"……thanks."

"You're welcome."

Ye Shenyue crossed her arms in front of her chest and stood by the window.The chain dangled from his wrist, crawled across the black marble floor, and then circled upwards, attaching itself to another man's wrist.

He heard that L was eloquently expressing his views on the recent abnormal death of Clover Company, and he did not shy away from expressing the relationship between Clover Company and KIRA.The whole situation is under the control of L, and everyone is a pawn in his hands ready to go.

But as another player in the chess game, he is not qualified to comment on L's attitude.

Even if Mi Haisha was written in the notebook in advance by him, she would not kill for B in a short time. The confusion of the identity of the "prey" bought him a short respite, but it was just a cover-up to delay time.Mi Haisha is dead, this method no longer gives him any protection.He was evenly matched with B, he saw B's face, and B almost confirmed the identity of his "prey".

But they are all in a situation where they can't do anything to each other. He is now "protected" by the police, and B can't kill him like before.But at the same time, he didn't get B's name either.

Judging from his previous request to Mi Haisha and the current response of Clover Company.The two notebooks in Mi Haisha's hands have been sent to the chess pieces he selected according to his prior request.Whether it was Yotsuba Company or Keosuke Huoguchi, they were all traps arranged by him in advance.After all, he still has to be thankful for his so-called "prey" status. Even if he loses the ownership of the Death Note, he will not lose his memory. B already has a superior IQ. With the eye of death, he only needs to observe the life span to determine the identity of the current note holder.

B will definitely get the first chance, and this is exactly what he wants.

"So, as long as we find out the truth about Yotsuba Corporation, we can catch KIRA!"

"No, it's not." L interrupted Matsuda, "I'm sorry for always pouring cold water on you, Matsuda. But I still want to clarify our purpose. Catching KIRA is only the best result, but the most important thing about this operation is to clarify KIRA's murder method, otherwise we will always be led by his nose."

"I still don't quite get it..."

"L means—he doesn't think that KIRA is alone." Ye Shenyue rejoined their discussion, shaking her wrist, and the metal chain undulated like waves.

"That's why I'm here, right, L?"

"That's right," L said. "According to our previous analysis, KIRA is not a person who is willing to punish with selfish desires. He has a very high sense of morality. As for the Yotsuba incident, I have two guesses. The first The first is that a person with the same ability as KIRA appeared, which is undoubtedly the simplest guess. The second guess is that someone in Yotsuba is an accomplice of KIRA, and all his actions are KIRA's acquiescence or even KIRA's request. the result of."

"If it's the second reason, then the criminal profile of KIRA that you constructed before will have to be reshuffled."

L quickly glanced at Ye Shenyue, "That's right, so I can understand that you are so happy because you saw my reasoning go wrong, Yue."

"This is all your imagination, L."

"Really, I'm really sorry." L said, "Since you are regarded as a suspect of KIRA, why don't you give me an answer—Yue, you are KIRA in the second case, why did you do this?" ? Is it because you have changed, and your superior morality has been washed away by power and desire? Or is it because the so-called "justice" is just a beautiful word, and all declarations and actions are means to achieve your inner purpose?"

After he finished speaking, he showed a brisk smile, "Of course, these are assumptions, please don't take it seriously. If you offend, please forgive me."

Luke began to laugh loudly, and his laughter was intermittent, "Ye Shenyue, this man is really interesting."

Ye Shenyue didn't find L interesting at all, because he couldn't answer the question at all.

If power is never a means, it is an end.Then he is a liar, he is no different from those members of parliament.But if power is the means, what is his end.

Ye Shenyue suddenly felt a kind of embarrassment, as if being tortured out of the blue.He was naked, standing under the chandelier.The light shot into his eyes, making both eyes stinging, and then circles of halos appeared in the pupils.The night is lit with the light of day, and all the creeping and hidden corners are invisible.

L was staring at him with interest, his eyes were pure and calm, as if those harsh tortures didn't come from him at all.He felt his throat crack and burn with an unbearable heat.

L was always like that - an executioner, but he never tortured himself.Just words can force everyone to face the hateful truth, allowing them to peel off the illusion of blood and flesh, like the outer skin, from themselves.Then it turned into a puddle of mud, unsightly dirt, and those people—let's call them "people", the flesh of the bloody forest, lost their faces and themselves.They had nothing left but howling.

Ye Shenyue is not such a person, he can't stand such an indecent image.That past self seems to have ceased to breathe long ago, but it is still a kind of undead, a dying image that exists in memory.

"You kill it." Said the ghost of the past.

So he raised his gun and shot himself.

"Shooting the Undead" was a joke after all, but the last vestige of it was gone too, easily crushed by L—or himself.The hypocrisy of the past is dead, and the lies still linger.It breeds, struggles to grow, and soon produces a new self.

"I think he has another purpose." Ye Shenyue said.

"You are saying that he is not for 'justice' itself, these are his means. So in your opinion, what should be his purpose."

"Maybe it's a test, maybe it's a search. I don't know," Ye Shenyue said, "I'm not KIRA, and I don't know his purpose."

"What about you, L," he pursued, "don't forget, our binding is relative. My doubts about you are the same. Now, you are KIRA in the first situation, how will you deal with the new , an opponent with the ability to kill."

"Use." L replied quickly.

"How to use it?"

"Use him to divert the attention of the police."

"and then."

The sugar cube between L's fingers fell into the black tea, and the heat quickly dissolved it, and soon disappeared.

"Then?" L smiled, his thick black pupils made people shudder.

"Kill," he said, "kill him."

Ye Shenyue knows that this is the answer that belongs to L, and it is also the answer that belongs to B.No two people are exactly alike in the world, but two people who are completely different will have similarities.

"Are you KIRA, L."

"Are you KIRA, Yagamitsuki?"

All of them lost their language function, and tacitly lowered their heads to flip through the materials in their hands. They read with relish, as if it was filled with the truth they had been looking for for a long time.It's a pity that the posture is too contrived, and there is a kind of nondescript embarrassment.

"Then, let's go here first today."

When Matsuda left for the last time, L and Ye Shenyue in the crack of the door still maintained a confrontational posture, as if a violent dispute would break out at any moment.But they were just silent, so the expanding energy was forcibly compressed in a narrow space, making people eager to escape from the scene.

"Mr. Aizawa, don't you think the atmosphere between them is too tense?"

"...Maybe it's Yue Zai who is brooding over the restriction of her personal freedom."

"That's right, Yue was already annoyed by the monitoring before. His girlfriend was killed, and she was treated as KIRA to restrict her personal freedom..."

But these are only their guesses after all. For Ye Shenyue and L, it is always difficult for others to really guess their intentions.There is always a door between them and ordinary people, the door of appearance.The other side is a field that no one can step into. They are all wandering outside the door.
