Light Yagami slapped away a hand that was trying to reach between his legs and turned his head away in frustration, almost kissing Sora Kasugano.
“We cannot do this kind of thing,” he emphasized again.
"Why not? Is it because Yue treats me like a daughter? But we're the same age, there's no difference in age."
Kasugano Sora nonchalantly pressed herself against him, demanding a kiss mark.
Back home, after writing for a short while, Light Yagami really wanted to leave and go to Misa Amane's place.
“From the time you were born until now, I have taught you most of your knowledge. In my understanding, you are similar to my daughter.”
Patiently answering the girl's willful questions, Light Yagami poured his fatherly love into her. The child, who grew up in a violent home, aspired to be a good father when she grew up.
"If Yue is worried about getting pregnant, she can just have an abortion." Kasugano Sora clearly misunderstood him, and one of her white-stockinged feet clung to the spot, rubbing against it without any instruction.
Just like before, without any instruction, she crossed her legs and squeezed Yagami Light's body tightly.
"Don't take teacher training for granted..." Yagami Light said helplessly, moving his leg away.
He was very uncomfortable with the ideas of this world. A large number of sexually frustrated women were advocating new ideas every day, such as that husbands have a responsibility to help their concubines' mothers meet their needs, and that the first soup should be given to close cousins or even the father's concubines.
Women's needs are actually far greater than men's, and in this world ravaged by the virus, most women cannot access male resources, so sex has been brought to the forefront and has become an urgent issue to be addressed.
"But doesn't Yue feel empty? I want it too, and Yue wants it too, right?" Kasugano Sora's voice was gentle and sweet, as if she didn't know what was going on.
After tearing away that veil of pretense, she, like a normal girl, openly expressed her love for her cousin.
"Misa Amane is here, so you'd better keep a low profile."
With a knock on the door, Light Yagami's unbearable ordeal came to an end.
Misa Amane, whom he had summoned to save the day, sat down next to him with the air of an empress, and Kasugano Sora reluctantly shifted her position.
She still held some respect for girls who were willing to live and die with their brothers, and she was also afraid that this madman would write her name on the list.
"I need to do some adult business with Yue, Kasugano Sora, you can go out now." Misa Amane smiled and saw Kasugano Sora off, who kept turning back every few steps.
Locking the door is the start of a major battle.
The unfiltered tone of voice lasted for nearly an hour before finally stopping.
Kasugano Sora, who was eavesdropping outside, weakly knocked on the wall, even though she wanted to join in.
"Misa is going to be exhausted." Misa tried her best to make her give up.
It can be considered as satisfying that tiny bit of dignity I have.
"Thank you for your hard work." Light Yagami cleaned up the mess. He actually still had energy left, but he couldn't bear to continue making things worse.
Kasugano Sora was no longer seen outside the door; it seemed she had gone back to her room. It was unclear whether she had understood what was meant.
Light Yagami sighed. Why does everyone want to sleep with me?
As a high-quality human male, he felt a bit of pressure.
After preparing dinner, I asked Misa Amane to stay for dinner as usual.
Light Yagami sat next to Misa Amane as a matter of course, and Misa Amane, as if asserting her dominance, would occasionally ask him to feed her.
Just as he was kissing Misa Amane, he felt a touch under the table and glanced over discreetly.
Kasugano Sora stretched out her legs, trying to rub against his crotch, but unfortunately her legs were a bit short, and she only managed to touch his calves.
"..."
Yagami Light glanced at Kasugano Sora, who appeared nonchalant but was blushing, with a strange expression, and almost burst out laughing.
What kind of strange treatment is this?
But in other families, the cousin would probably crawl under the table on her own, while her girlfriend would just ignore it, right?
Having sex parties is quite common, after all, the practice of polygamy has never ceased since ancient times.
"Did you eat a bone?" Misa Amane glanced at it worriedly, actually noticing the almost zero distance on the radar.
Another person has appeared within the warning range and is approaching.
"No, I was thinking about happy things."
Light Yagami casually told a hellish joke, while Sora Kasugano, supporting herself on the chair with one hand, tried to reach out with her foot. Her movements under the table were subtle, yet she repeatedly managed to touch the right spot with her foot.
Misa Amane tried her best to pretend she didn't see it. She didn't want to break the atmosphere, so she just treated it as a loser's struggle.
"Thud!" Kasugano Sora tripped and fell off the stool, tumbling head over heels.
"..." The two exchanged a glance.
Light Yagami suppressed a laugh and was about to help her up when Misa Amane beat him to it.
Misa Amane finally understood why she needed acting skills; if it weren't for her instinctive self-control, she would have burst out laughing.
How could there be such an idiot white-haired person?
The meal passed in everyone's own thoughts. Kasugano Sora rushed to finish washing up, which made Yagami Light feel somewhat relieved. He had originally wanted to pull Amane Misa to do some more exercise to calm down the anger that had just been stirred up.
The doorbell rang.
"Moon, is this Kasumigaoka Utaha? Shall we open the door?"
After seeing who it was, Misa Amane asked Light Yagami for his opinion.
"Don't turn it on, just pretend no one's home."
Misa tiptoed back to his side, ignoring the doorbell ringing incessantly.
"I just stopped by to see you. There's a book signing going on here, so I won't bother you like before. I just wanted to know how you're doing, and then I'll be on my way."
"I know you're home, so please don't hide from me, okay?"
Light Yagami scrolled through short videos, expressionless, while Misa Amane sat obediently to his side, closing her eyes and nestled in his arms.
Even Kasugano Sora, after washing the dishes, tiptoed to the door. Hearing the familiar voice, she showed a helpless expression, then looked jealously at the two people who were standing close together, stood there for a while, and then went back to her room.
“I went to see Ebizuka Satoshi and the tests showed that she and I share the same father.”
There were many voices outside, but Light Yagami had no intention of opening the door until he heard this sentence, at which point he looked up.
"What does this mean?" Misa Amane was a little confused. She only knew that Kasumigaoka Utaha was Light Yagami's ex-girlfriend, and Ebizuka Tomo was Light Yagami's nominal sister.
Before she could even think about what their relationship was, Light Yagami had already gotten up and opened the door.
"You've finally decided to see me?"
Kasumigaoka Utaha leaned against the door, her gaze drifting towards the room.
"What do you want to do?" Light Yagami asked, keeping his composure.
She didn't answer, but just looked at Misa Amane sitting on the sofa with a complicated expression.
Chapter 34: You're almost the same as before.
"Your girlfriend?"
"What else?" Light Yagami greeted Misa Amane.
“I’ve heard Light mention you, Kasumigaoka~Utaha.” Misa Amane obediently did as she was told, and intimately took Light Yagami’s hand.
“It’s fine…” Kasumigaoka looked at Misa Amane and chuckled. “This is the last time I’m here to see you, so you don’t need to say anything that I’ll hate.”
"I'm leaving now." She glanced at him longingly, then turned and left.
Light Yagami waited until she had walked a few steps away before activating his Shinigami Eyes, where blood-red numbers clearly counted down.
1472 is the number of seconds left to live.
"How is Light...?" Misa Amane was very obedient and would ask Light Yagami's opinion before using the Death Eye.
"She never thought about suicide before. I wasn't heavily involved, so why would her lifespan be changed?" Light Yagami's face was grim.
Misa Amane's heart skipped a beat.
Perhaps it's the effect of the victim's halo?
"Perhaps he was just hit hard." Light Yagami shook his head. Lifespan is not entirely immutable.
If he gets involved, he can save a person who is about to die.
Correspondingly, some people who are not destined to die may have their fate altered and die due to his unconscious interference.
"I'm going out for a bit; I can't watch her die."
Misa Amane sat on the sofa and waited for a while. There was no response to her message. With mixed feelings, she chose the superpower [Common Sense Modification] and tried to give it to Kasumigaoka Utaha.
—If it succeeds, it means she is not dead.
"It worked?" Misa Amane was overjoyed, but then her face darkened as she remembered something.
------
Light Yagami dialed Ichiri Goto's number.
The situation was urgent, and he wasn't sure if he could find them. The person who wanted to die might be hiding somewhere, quietly waiting for death to come.
They have no way of contacting us anymore.
"It's good that you're here. Just wait for my message."
After quickly arranging what Goto Ichiri needed to do, Yagami Light used the location provided by the LINE backend to find Kasumigaoka Utaha, who was standing quietly by a bridge.
He was covered in sweat as he ran anxiously.
"Don't do anything stupid."
Before Light Yagami could catch his breath, Kasumigaoka Utaha's words sent a chill down his spine.
"You really can tell when someone is going to die."
The girl gazing into the distance from the bridgehead turned around, her wine-red pupils revealing an enigmatic smile at the corner of her mouth.
“You used the phrase ‘the last time,’ which was too suggestive. I was afraid it would upset you and make you do something rash.”
Light Yagami calmed down and gave an explanation that was neither sad nor happy.
"Really? I don't think so." Kasumigaoka Utaha slowly approached, her face almost touching his shoulder, and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear, "When Grandma passed away, I sensed that you could see lifespans."
"That's just the traditional Chinese medicine diagnostic methods of observation, listening, questioning, and palpation. As mentioned before, when a person is about to die, they sweat profusely, and there may be a period of lucidity before death."
“I don’t believe it.” Kasumigaoka Utaha shifted her position slightly, leaning against the stone handguard. “Then how do you explain that her eyes are red?”
"Stop saying things like conjunctivitis, color difference due to weather, or astigmatism from the glasses..."
“Then you’re mistaken,” Light Yagami said honestly.
“You…” Kasumigaoka Utaha’s chest heaved with anger, but Yagami Light didn’t give her much time to think.
"I'm going back now. There are so many wonderful things in life, there's no need to get hung up on a guy who doesn't like you. You're not unwanted, and you have people who care about you, right?"
Unwilling to give up, Kasumigaoka Utaha watched Yagami Light's retreating figure and quickly called out, "Wait!"
Unfortunately, he didn't pause.
"...I jumped."
Only after hearing these words from behind did Light Yagami turn around helplessly, staring expressionlessly at Kasumigaoka Utaha, whose expression was complicated.
"Tell me clearly—"
Seeing that this tactic worked, Kasumigaoka quickly approached Yagami Light. Whether she wanted to beat her up to vent her anger or do something else, she didn't want to miss any opportunity to communicate.
Unfortunately, what she got in return was being pushed down.
The river submerged her body. Kasumigaoka Utaha, who couldn't swim, struggled desperately, her nose filled with soreness, unable to breathe.
She could only see Light Yagami watching the show from above on the bridge for a while before she finally jumped off.
Before falling into a coma, Kasumigaoka Utaha instinctively hugged the only body she could rely on, just as she had when her grandmother passed away and she was unwilling to accept it.
After carrying the soaking wet Kasumigaoka Utaha ashore, Yagami Light hesitated for a moment before performing artificial respiration.
He's a bit of a germaphobe, but human life is more important.
In a daze, Kasumigaoka seemed to see his grandmother, who had passed away a few years ago, her appearance clearer than the hallucination of eating undercooked Boletus luridus.
She seemed to see her grandmother asking her in a reproachful tone why she didn't cherish life.
I wanted to say something back, but when I held my grandmother's hand, a burning pain shot through my face.
Light Yagami slapped Kasumigaoka twice, waking him up.
