Chapter 198

~5 min read 906 words

Since he didn't exchange half his lifespan for the Shinigami Eyes, Light Yagami had to find a way to use his intelligence to investigate the name of the agent following him.

On the weekend, he made an appointment with Margot Robbie.

Bale, playing the FBI investigator, saw this and followed them.

And halfway through, a wanted criminal who had been reported in the news got on the bus and hijacked it.

Light Yagami whispered to Margot Robbie.

Bale, sitting behind them, heard this and quickly advised the other party not to act rashly, saying he would find a way to solve it.

"What evidence do you have to prove that you are not an accomplice of the criminal?"

Light Yagami asked with a slightly suspicious look on his face.

Margot Robbie was stunned.

Only then did Light Yagami explain:

"Doesn't the news often report it? When a criminal commits a crime, to be prepared for any eventuality, they will let an accomplice mix in with the hostages to observe the situation."

As soon as these words came out, the expression of the agent played by Bale suddenly froze.

After struggling for a few seconds, he still took out his FBI investigator ID and showed it to Light Yagami, thinking to himself:

"There won't be a problem. Light Yagami can't be Kira. If he were Kira, he would have directly made that wanted criminal die of a heart attack."

And seeing the true name on the ID, the corners of Light Yagami's mouth curved into an imperceptible arc.

Got him!

Next, Light Yagami deliberately attracted the wanted criminal's attention, letting him get the note torn from the Death Note.

Thereby seeing the Shinigami Ryuk who had been following Light Yagami.

The wanted criminal was instantly scared out of his wits and fired randomly.

Bale mistakenly thought the other party was hallucinating from a drug overdose and rushed up to stop the wanted criminal.

However, the ending of this wanted criminal had long been arranged clearly by Light Yagami using the Death Note.

After seeing Ryuk, he hurriedly got off the bus to escape.

But he crashed into a car that had cut across and died on the spot!

"Everything is under your control, Light. You perfectly utilized the rules of the Death Note to know the name of the follower."

Looking at Light Yagami, who looked like everything was under control, even Ryuk, as a Shinigami, couldn't help but praise:

"As expected of the top honor student in the entire Lighthouse Nation."

"Oh my god!"

"Too amazing! Aizen!"

"How can he be so smart?"

"The Death Note can actually be used like this... I couldn't think of such a method even if I broke my head."

Countless audience members watching the premiere around the world gasped.

Just now they were intimidated by L's reasoning ability, but now they were immediately conquered by Light Yagami's strategy.

They originally thought the Death Note was just about writing the target's name on it.

They didn't expect there were so many abilities that could be utilized.

The key is that the battle of wits in "Death Note," while hearty, is not difficult to understand.

This is a major advantage of this work: the settings are simple and clear.

For example, another famous Hollywood screenwriter, Nolan, also has quite a few brain-burning dramas.

But often it's easy to burn out the audience's brains.

Although it feels awesome, many times the brain can't keep up with the plot.

Before you've figured out what's going on, the plot has already moved to the next segment.

You wish you could take a notebook and write down the settings while watching the movie.

And the rules of "Death Note" are extremely simple.

Even audience members whose brains aren't very sharp can instantly understand what happened.

However, Light Yagami got the name of the agent played by Bale but didn't write it directly into the Death Note.

Because if he did that, the police would immediately suspect him.

He did the opposite, disguised his identity, followed behind the other party, and proactively indicated that he was Kira.

And threatened Bale to act according to his wishes.

Otherwise, he would kill his family and everyone present!

Bale, having seen Light Yagami's ability, didn't dare to resist and could only obediently act according to the other party's wishes.

On the subway, Bale followed Light Yagami's instructions.

On the paper of the Death Note, which was obstructed by a barrier, he wrote the names of other FBI agents who were participating in the Kira investigation like himself.

This made him, without knowing it, kill all the FBI agents who were investigating Kira!

And in the end, having lost his value, he was also cruelly killed by Light Yagami.

"Urgh!"

Bale, who had just gotten off the subway, felt a sharp pain in his heart, fell to his knees, and collapsed on the ground, twitching uncontrollably.

Turning his head to look at the other side of the subway gate, he saw that at the other end of the subway door was exactly his previous investigation target!

"Light... Yagami!?"

Under the powerful acting of this A-list Hollywood star, Bale perfectly interpreted the shock of this FBI investigator at the truth before his death and his reluctance to leave his fiancée.

The audience in front of the screen could even feel how desperate he was inside, having stepped into the gates of hell.
