Human emotions were like a tree, tangled and complicated, with luxuriant branches and leaves.
Every branch and leaf was an extension of the sentient being's emotions. They were intertwined with each other without any pattern. No one could fully understand all emotions. It was almost impossible to draw them into a straight line and understand them in one's heart.
As for the boy named Ryuga, his emotional tree was in a state of withering.
No, it should be said that his emotional tree lacked crucial soil and nutrients. It never had the chance to take root and sprout.
He was born to be unable to understand the joy of an evil person after doing evil, nor was he able to understand the satisfaction of a good person after helping others. He was even more unable to empathize with love, family, friendship, anger, and hatred.
Not to mention killing innocent people with his own hands, even if theoretically his closest family member died in front of him, his heart, which was like stagnant water, would not have the slightest ripple.
It was as if God purposely removed his emotional system when he created him. Weak emotions. This was the [Abnormal Symptom] that Ryuga was suffering from.
…
"Your parents are dead."
On the night of the 28th of September, Ryuga received the news from the Guanbuzi Police Station.
Even after hearing the grievous news that theoretically his closest family had died, Ryuga's heart didn't have the slightest ripple. It was like a stone falling into the ocean, unable to cause any ripples.
Although his parents were indeed Ryuga's parents in terms of blood, in reality, they had already cut ties with each other two years ago.
Addicted to fun, in debt, and not caring about home … These were the few impressions that Ryuga's parents left on him.
If the world's parents could be divided into three, six, and nine classes, then Ryuga's parents must be the lowest class. They basically didn't have a proper job and spent all their time in bars and other entertainment venues. Even when it came to 'who should take care of their son', the two of them would shirk away and argue endlessly.
Those were men and women who lived completely in their own world. They would not care about anyone else. Even their closest family members would not be able to wake them up from their third-rate depravity.
Therefore, when Ryuga was nine years old and awakened the power of Future Vision and had enough ability to earn money to support herself, she cut ties with her parents and left the family.
Ryuga had always believed that it was impossible for people to leave society and live alone. Everyone had their own obligations in society as a whole.
People who couldn't fulfill their obligations were very boring.
This was one of the three types of people that Ryuga didn't want to come into contact with. It wasn't because he disliked them. He never had such feelings in his heart. It was just that after calculating the gains and losses, he felt that there was no need to come into contact with them.
On the morning of the 29th, Ryuga went to the Guanbuzi police station.
On one hand, she needed to take over the inheritance left behind by the parents. On the other hand, Ryuga also planned to investigate the cause of their death.
Unlike his parents who couldn't fulfill their obligations, Ryuga felt that as their son, he should more or less show some hatred for the criminals and the will to take revenge.
In the minds of most people, if their parents died, the son should take revenge for them, right?
In fact, Ryuga didn't have any clear idea of taking revenge for them. He, who was indifferent, never had any emotions like anger or sadness. He just felt that he should fulfill his obligations as a son.
His parents had been killed by someone.
When the police found the two bodies, the bodies looked as if they had been bitten by wild beasts. They were covered in wounds and were unsightly to look at. Even their limbs had been cut off and were arranged in the shape of a swastika.
The way they died was very strange.
"Preliminary judgment is that the person who killed the couple should be the 'serial killer' who has been causing a lot of trouble in Guanbuzi City recently. The other party has the habit of biting the bodies after killing the victims."
A man with black hair, wearing a formal grey suit, and looking to be in his twenties with a short stubble on his chin made this guess.
He placed the cherry blossom emblem on the table. Only the lower leaves of the cherry blossom were painted yellow. The cherry blossom itself was plain silver and there was a yellow bar on both sides of the cherry blossom.
Ryuga glanced at the emblem discreetly and glanced away.
Being a police officer was already a very high position in the police department. Was he the one investigating the serial killer?
"This is the fourth and fifth crime committed by the other party in the past few months. However, Mr. Ipakura, I don't think this is a problem that should be discussed in front of an 11-year-old child."
As he said this, Akushi glanced at the two people in front of him.
Ipakura Kyouhei, the younger brother of the deceased's husband, was 30 years old. He ran a small studio and had some assets.
Ipakura Bare, the son of the deceased's husband, was 11 years old. Two years ago, he cut ties with the deceased's parents. No one knew where he lived or what he was doing.
The uncle and nephew were the only family members of the deceased's husband. Both of them had the right to inherit the estate, so they were called together today.
"I'm... I'm sorry, officer. I just didn't expect my brother to die like this. I'm a little emotional..."
Ipakura Kyouhei seemed a little nervous. He took out a handkerchief from his pocket and wiped the sweat off his forehead. At the same time, he covered his face so that no one could see his expression.
"By the way, may I ask if the inheritance left behind by my brother can be … inherited by Naked?"
Ipakura Kyouhei's voice was trembling. His voice was dry and his lips were a little pale.
Akushi didn't mind. He just waved his hand. "Who knows? I'm not in charge of the estate of the deceased. I'm already having a headache trying to find the murderer. "
"However, according to the law, when the spouse and parents are dead, the child of the deceased is the first in line to inherit the estate. So, it should be inherited by this child."
As a child, even if he asked face to face, he wouldn't be able to get much information. He didn't care about the estate of the deceased's parents. So, Ryuga didn't want to stay any longer. She walked out of the police station with Ipakura Kyouhei.
"Bare... there's something I don't know if I should tell you."
Outside the police station, Ipakura Kyouhei looked like he wanted to say something. His eyes were a little evasive, as if he was hesitating. But in the end, he gritted his teeth and spoke.
"Actually, I'm responsible for your parents' death. I told them that the place had a new drug that the mafia recently imported... I'm the one who killed them!"
The moment these words left his mouth, Ipakura Kyouhei seemed to be relieved. He seemed to have made up his mind. There was an unnatural look of guilt on his face.
Ryuga looked at the slightly noisy sirens not far away. She didn't look away. Out of the corner of her eye, she inadvertently saw Ipakura Kyouhei's reaction.
Akushi Akushi and Ipakura Kyouhei.
These two people had their own value in this matter.
If she wanted to avenge her parents, these two people should be able to play a role.
