Arrived at the bus stop.

I start to sweat because of my crossed arms.

“Okay, now. You can come in, guys.”

“I’ll just watch it until it starts burning.”

The two girls spoke at the same time, as if they had made a promise.

It seems like the two of them have become quite close in the meantime.

I asked Sea.

Please take good care of Sohee’s gang so they don’t harass Jiyoonil.

“Of course, sis. We’re pretty close now!”

Sea wrapped her arm around the wolf girl’s shoulder, telling her to trust only her.

Although the visuals were similar to those of a group of bullies pretending to be friendly, I was soon able to put my mind at ease when I saw Jiyoon-il laughing along.

Even if Sohee’s father is a senator, he won’t be able to easily touch the ace of the academy.

Because it would be a national loss to strike down a hunter who would bring glory to the country in the future.

Above all, I will report to the school and tell her firmly not to approach those two people.

“—.”

A foreign car is visible beyond the horizon.

I know that car.

A car that is so familiar that the corners of my mouth go up involuntarily.

Jaguar XJ12.

He waved brightly at the enemy sitting in the driver’s seat.

“Huh…?”

But something is strange.

Because the car, which was supposed to stop at the bus stop with great skill, did not slow down at all.

He runs towards us with all his might as if he’s going to attack us.

Without realizing it, I put my hand on Sea’s arm.

The Jaguar slowed down only when it got to the bus stop, barely managing to stop.

A fine puff of smoke rises from the car, showing how suddenly it stopped.

“Sister… Is this the car that’s coming to pick you up?”

Sea asks, seeming bewildered by the appearance of the powerful jaguar.

Jiyoon swallowed hard and pressed her body closer to mine.

“Uh…maybe?”

Because it’s a car you don’t see often in Korea.

The tinted windows go down.

A woman wearing sunglasses leisurely rests her arm on the windowsill and looks at us.

“Poem.”

Beautiful silver hair.

White and soft skin.

Even though he was wearing sunglasses, I could feel the murderous intent through them.

Anyone can tell that it doesn’t exist.

But why are you riding there…?

“Anna…?”

The two girls’ expressions weren’t much different from mine.

They can’t take their eyes off the white hair they’ve never seen before.

“Sister, who is this person?”

Sea asks her warily.

Jiyoon was also hostile.

She tightened her grip on me, afraid that I might be stolen from her.

The pain makes me frown.

“Ahahaha… Hello. It’s my friend Anna.”

Anna lowered her sunglasses as if responding to my introduction.

Then her white eyes stared intently at the two girls.

“Hello…”

The girls greeted him in hushed voices.

But Anna didn’t respond at all to the children’s greetings.

The killer, who had roughly scanned their appearance, simply ordered me to get into the car.

I quickly got into the passenger seat, fearing that her gaze might scare the children.

“Hey, guys. See you tomorrow. I had fun today!”

“Yes, see you tomorrow…”

The children all bow their heads in greeting.

Anna ignored the greeting and stepped straight into the car.

Because I pressed the accelerator hard, the car started off with a loud noise.

I saw the children walking away in the side mirror.

Sea looks at Anna with a dissatisfied expression.

Jiyoon also looks disappointed and has a desolate look in her eyes.

Look at the kids’ expressions…

Why is a person of his age so cruel to children?

I clicked my tongue at Anna as if she were an ugly daughter.

“How did you get here? I definitely called the enemy.”

“I came instead since I borrowed a car.”

She said, turning the steering wheel with her shoulders straight.

The angles were just right, like a race car.

But compared to that, driving is very unstable.

My body shakes as I slowly press on the brakes because I am not good at controlling my speed.

“I borrowed it, right…?”

I asked, clutching my dizzy head.

“…”

Anna didn’t answer.

Just follow the national highway back to Seoul.

No way… did you really steal it?

I opened my mouth to ask that question.

“What’s that look like?”

However, the white-haired woman changed the subject and looked at my attire.

Her gaze alternately scans my tight-fitting white shirt and short skirt.

“Oh, I spilled something on your clothes so I borrowed them.”

“…”

Anna didn’t show any reaction even after asking.

What the heck, if that’s what was going to happen, why did you ask?

Soon the car stopped at a traffic light.

Then she reached into the back seat.

When she returned, she was holding a blanket in her hands.

Anna pulled herself up toward me while the car stopped.

Soon her silver hair was tickling my cheek.

That sight almost took my breath away.

Because her face was so close that I could feel her breath.

Anna smoothed her hair and draped the blanket over my thighs.

Even after I sat back down in the driver’s seat, the scent of her fragrant soap lingered on me.

Did you know he could do this too…?

I am taken aback by her kindness, which I have never felt before.

I looked up at the killer with a dumbfounded expression.

“I didn’t know it was you earlier. Because of those clothes.”

“I know, I’m uncomfortable too. I hate things like skirts. That doesn’t suit me.”

I said with a deep sigh.

Then Anna shook her head slightly.

“…”

She muttered in a voice quieter than the sound of the car.

“What?”

When I asked, the killer kept his mouth shut.

And then he goes back to driving as if he hadn’t said anything.

The car changes lanes roughly, as if it doesn’t want to answer my question.

But she didn’t turn on her blinkers.

The car chasing behind was startled and honked its horn.

“Hey, speed bump!”

As it was walking back down the alley, the jaguar jumped over a speed bump.

The car shook violently and I ended up falling out of the seat and hitting my head on the ceiling.

“Ahh…”

He grabbed his head.

Anna drove her car through the alleys with a blank expression on her face.

Only then did I realize.

That this isn’t simply a matter of driving style.

“Are you unlicensed? What kind of driving are you…”

When I asked, Anna opened her eyes wide like an animal.

And then he says something that gives me goosebumps.

“What is a license?”

“Huh..?”

For a moment my eyes lost focus.

Anna’s expression as she looked into those empty eyes was like that of a leopard that knew nothing.

“Hey, hey! Look ahead. Don’t look at me!”

I pushed Anna’s face away and made her look forward.

But the car was already running towards the outer wall of the building.

I shut my eyes tightly.

Because of this fucking bitch, I’m finally going to die.

“—!”

Anna turned the steering wheel 180 degrees.

The enemy’s car barely managed to twist its body, scraping against the wall.

But driving isn’t just about feeling.

The car barely managed to avoid the wall and turned the corner due to acceleration.

And then it ended up crashing into the black Starex that was going straight ahead.

The Starex was completely crushed on the side and hit the wall.

“Ugh…”

Jaguar is a cool old car.

But the biggest drawback of old cars is… the airbags don’t work properly.

I thought I was going to hit my head and die.

But the moment the car gets stuck…

Anna held my chest with her arms to keep me from flying away.

“What should we do…because of us…”

I barely came to my senses and looked out the broken window.

The Starex was completely crushed and looked like a used can.

“No, it’s not because of us.”

“What?”

Her shameless words make my eyebrows twitch.

If we hit a car going straight, it’s obviously our fault. What are you talking about?

This is common sense that even people without a driver’s license know.

Anna kicked open the dented car door.

The poor jaguar was left lying on the floor with the door completely detached.

If the enemy finds out about this, we…

“They did it to us on purpose.”

Anna points to the crushed SUV.

I follow his hand and look inside the car.

It’s definitely weird.

Clearly, the Starex was running at a fast speed.

But there was no driver or passengers inside.

Soon we hear the sound of a car coming from the back road we came from.

Soon, an Opirus stopped.

Two men wearing black masks get out of the car.

I can’t help but feel nervous at the sight of his broad shoulders.

“I didn’t receive any reports of a vehicle.”

The biggest one speaks first.

He mutters, looking back and forth between his phone and me.

“Height: 160cm, teardrop, school uniform. Right.”

The man snaps his fingers.

Then the man standing next to him takes the lead.

“What the hell are you doing wrong? You get kidnapped all the time?”

Anna asks in a flat voice.

I can’t help but laugh out loud at those words.

“You were one of those kidnappers, right?”

She turns her head as if ignoring what I say.

Instead, he clenched his fists and faced the two men pouring down on him.

“Coming.”

One on the left shoulder.

One on the right side.

Aim at multiple places at once as if you’ve handled the sum dozens of times.

At that moment, the killer blocks the coming punch with his elbow.

A fist digging into the side causes a counterattack by raising the knee.

The two kidnappers back away, clenching their fists.

The killer doesn’t miss the moment when they step back.

The man in front immediately takes a boxing stance to block the oncoming killer.

But a skilled killer’s target is the bridge.

A trained shin hits his thigh.

He punches the staggering kidnapper in the temple.

The man fell to the floor with a sound like something breaking.

“…!”

At that sight, the man took a step back without realizing it.

They never expected that such an opponent would exist for them, who had only dreamed of a simple kidnapping.

“Anna, don’t kill me!”

I yelled at her.

“What, are you going to start talking about not killing people again?”

Anna reacts indifferently to my cries.

“You have to keep one alive to know the mastermind.”

I speak to her with a serious look in my eyes.

Then Anna seemed satisfied with my answer and took out a dagger from her bosom.

“I like it after a long time.”

She raised her dagger.

And then I ran towards the guy who had pointed at me.

The man reaches out his hand toward the rushing woman.

Then, pieces of the crushed Starex rise up.

The kidnapper slammed his palm on the ground.

Then, the fragments all turned into giant blades and rushed at Anna.

Much more powerful than the telekinetic girl I saw during the day.

“…”

Anna, who had been running in a straight line, immediately starts running diagonally.

Even though it was clear that a single gesture would be faster than running speed, the man’s blade did not reach Anna.

A sharp dagger is aimed at the bastard’s neck.

The moment the sword was about to reach her throat, the kidnapper knocked the sword away with the back of his hand.

At the same time, he turns his body and strikes Anna’s side.

“…!”

He was confident of his victory as he felt the sensation properly.

But the hand that dug into the killer’s side soon began to tremble.

Because Anna’s body was as hard as steel.

Even though the sides have relatively little muscle.

And what a blank expression on her face even after being hit by a large, adult male.

It was terrifying, like encountering an incomprehensible being.

“Ha… Surrender.”

Only then does he realize the level of the opponent he has witnessed.

But Anna’s arms did not stop despite his surrender.

She raised her dagger high into the air.

And then he tried to stick a sword into the kidnapper’s neck.

I looked calmly at that cruel sight.

Anna’s dagger hits his car, not the kidnapper’s.

She no longer kills people indiscriminately.

I ask the kidnapper while Anna stands next to me.

“Who told you to do this?”

My black eyes pierce through him.

To be honest, I don’t even need to watch the video, but I should check it out properly now.

He stared blankly into my thin, long eyes.

I approached him with my hands behind my back and whispered.

“Are you the girl with short blue hair?”

The delicate scent of flowers tickles the tip of his nose.

“That, that’s…”

The man muttered, breathing heavily.

Then Anna strongly hit the head of the kidnapper who was staring at her.

“Stop staring.”

“I’m sorry… Sohee made me do it.”

Only after being hit a few times did he begin to blow the whistle obediently.

I grabbed his bangs and gently ran my fingers through them.

“Sohee kidnapped me and asked me what to do with her?”

“…”

Sorry for the late reply.

I don’t want to be kind to the kidnapper anymore.

“Anna?”

As soon as I spoke, the killer raised his fist again.

Then the man shook his head madly and opened his mouth.

“Ha, I told you to scare them so they wouldn’t report to school…”

“Hmm- I see.”

This is roughly the expected answer.

Still, it feels refreshing to hear it directly from my own mouth.

“Should I kill you?”

Anna asks me.

I smile and shake my head.

“Hey. You told me.”

What’s important now is what to do with Sohee in the future.

It’s only natural to report her misdeeds to the school.

But, something is a bit weak.

One day, there’s a chance that they’ll try to silence someone else’s mouth, not Jiyoon’s or mine.

I walked in a small circle with my luggage on my back.

Then a good idea occurred to me and I stopped walking.

“Sir, can you give me your phone for a second?”
