Hearing the shout from the female detective, Jason nodded in acknowledgment. Then... he gazed at the 'food' in front of him with an indescribable hunger in his eyes.
Gurgle, grrrr.
The rumbling of his stomach had long since turned into a continuous roar.
Gulp, gulp.
The excessive secretion of saliva made Jason swallow incessantly.
"Thank goodness I didn't give up. Finally, you're here."
Jason whispered.
In those hunger-filled eyes was a glimmer of relief.
He had almost given up just moments ago.
But luckily,
everything had taken a turn!
After clearing out the outer areas of the Hanakaiin Family's territory, Jason darted toward the core of the black mist without stopping.
The scent of food suddenly became faint and elusive, filling Jason with an uneasy premonition.
Thus, Jason pressed forward with all his might.
But soon, he was forced to halt.
A defensive forcefield blocked his way.
Without hesitation, Jason raised his blade and struck.
Bam!
