However, when he saw the caller ID, he froze.
He was stunned.
The caller was none other than his half-sister, Xiaoli—the very one he'd seen stabbed to death by the man in the black robe.
"What are you doing? Don't tell me you're on a date. It took you forever to answer."
The call had just connected when a cold, haughty female voice came through the receiver.
Hearing that familiar voice, Hakawa Yuuma's tense heart finally settled.
He carefully questioned her to confirm she was safe, then let out a long sigh of relief.
Next, he called his junior and senior from school in succession.
Only after confirming that they too were unharmed could he truly relax.
'Could that really have been just a hallucination?'
Hakawa Yuuma frowned, his heart filled with doubt.
But if it was a hallucination, it had been far too realistic.
Still, as long as everyone was safe, it was a good thing.
However, Hakawa Yuuma had no idea that the day's events were merely the beginning.
