Chapter 24: Kira's New Spokesperson

"You watch Anime?" Gevanni asked in surprise. Well duh.

Halle nodded a pink tint on her cheeks but barely noticeable. I smirked teasingly at her while she playfully glared at me, honestly. I would never have thought that she acts like this. Halle looks very serious compared to her attitude.

"Sounds interesting. I'll watch that sometime." I said.

Light and Takada's Meet Up Hotel Room

Omniscient's POV

The circumstances were perfect, Light can use it as an excuse that Kira called him and asked him to remove any wiretaps and bugs just in case. He managed to once again fool the Task Force.

"What's going on?" Takada asked after Light removed all the bugs.

"Now I can talk without any restraints." Light replied a faint smirk was seen on his lips.

"What?"

"Listen Kiyomi, I am the real Kira."

Kiyomi gasped, she is now readable like a book.

"That's right. It's what I wanted to tell you, I am the real Kira."

'Light is Kira?!'

Light held up the phone, "Listen. Don't ask Kiyomi about who I am, you don't need to know my identity." he spoke with Mikami through the phone.

"Yes, I leave the rest to you. God." The black haired man on the other line said without any hesitance. With that, Light ended the call.

"Do you understand? I'm the real Kira, the man you spoke with is one of my followers that I shared my power with." Light confirmed. Takada had already gotten over her state of shock and now pure joy and awe were seen on her face.

"I-I can't believe it's you! You were the only man I really admired. To be honest, the only man I've felt a connection with!"

'All the pieces have fallen into place, now that it had come this far, It's my turn to go to Japan.' Near thought, cutting a piece of paper.

"Y/N." He called out.

"Yes?" You spoke right after.

"I'm afraid I need you to return to New York immediately." He blankly said.

"Like, right now? This very second- er millisecond?" You replied.

"Yes, I would like to go to Japan." He said.

"Alright, so you would like me to stay in New York while you're gone?"

"Not at all."

"So, what's the point of me coming back there? To escort you?" You playfully scoffed at him.

"Actually yes, truth is I've never made traveling arrangements on my own before. That's why I need you to come back, so you can escort me." He said while twirling a lock of his snow-colored hair.

"Hmkay." You replied, 'Well isn't that a surprise?'

Let's just say that for the rest of the plane ride, there were a lot of toys and jokes involved, bringing your bond closer.

Task Force

Omniscient's POV

"We got 'em! Both productions are begging us now. It was such a huge success!" Matsuda told them in joy.

"This days it's hard to get into any channel. But this will give us full access." Ide stated as he looked at the newspaper Matsuda was reading.

"Yeah, that's right. Mogi will be having an entry as Misa's manager. It'll definitely be to our advantage for someone who could go in and out freely. In the meantime, I'll continue investigating Takada." Light said, faking an act of gratefulness. Suddenly right after he said that N's symbol appeared on the screen. Meaning a call was sent.
