New law of Beast Taming

A pair of dangerous eyes looked at Amane with a familiar light in them. She was aware of the feeling of danger that was rising around her.

A smiling face but dead pair of eyes was the look Charlie had worn when Amane had first picked her up all that time ago. She could still remember that cold glare she got for her effort of getting close to the younger.

It had been a tough battle with Charlie but Amane had somehow succeeded in luring the younger to her side.

Now, it was like Amane had stepped back into the past. Charlie was looking at Amane with a familiar glare and the same atmosphere had formed around them.

The only difference this time was - Charlie was older and her clothes were no longer rags. She sure had grown up physically but deep down, Charlie had remained as a child.

Amane could not help herself. Her impulse to go ahead and pat Charlie on the head was strong. And before Amane knew it, her hand was resting on a soft head and she was patting Charlie.

"There is no need for you to be so tense, Lady Suzuki. I am sure whatever is ailing you would be solved soon."

There were tears in Charlie's eyes as soon as Amane performed her action. The divine leader had to look away to hide her expression.

When Charlie turned back, she was her normal self. There was not even a hint of any other emotion but happiness and excitement in her eyes.

'Yup, Charlie sure grew up as an actress. If I did not know her true self, even I would have a hard time knowing what she was truly feeling right now.'

Amane wanted to flinch but she could not. That would give away the fact that something was wrong with her.

"I cannot believe I had a relapse like that. I am sorry Lady Tsurugi, I let my emotions get the best of me. I think we should end today's session here. I will come to pick you up tomorrow."

Charlie Suzuki sat up abruptly with her face flushed red.

The servants were startled at her sudden action and they looked at Charlie with a nervous expression on their faces. They wanted to know if they had done something wrong.

In the end, Amane was the one who raised her hand to assure her servants that nothing was wrong. Lady Suzuki had gotten a little emotional but that was no reason to panic.

Soon, Charlie left the estate but she had dropped a whole bunch of worries on Amane's shoulder. Especially with the news of this recent possibility of a chimera case.

Normally, Amane would not have cared about such things and she would have opted to stay out of this situation. But her current self is different.

Amane's heart was beating restlessly. She was worried for something and even her instincts were telling her that things were not going to be simple this time.

'I hope things are not going down the direction I am thinking of. Please do not let it be Chen behind all this.'

Amane never wanted the kids she raised to become a hindrance to society. She had tried her best to raise them with love and care.

So, if there was a student of hers that grew up into a bad person, then it would be up to Amane to take care of him.

...

The night passed quickly. Before Amane knew it, Lady Suzuki was at her door steps to accompany her to the crime scene.

But Charlie Suzuki was not alone here today. There was a familiar face sitting adjacent to her in the car.

Familiar red hair and green eyes greeted Amane as soon as she sat down in the car. Sean gave Amane a nod of acknowledgment but nothing more. He was busy with his reports and rechecking things for this case.

Chapter Experience:

"Sean, greet Lady Yoko properly. Despite her age, she is the head of the Tsurugi family. And she is also someone I want to have a deep relationship with in the future."

Sean looked up at Amane with a startled and annoyed expression. He was busy enough without having to add extra steps to his routine.

But Sean could also not say anything in front of Lady Suzuki or he would be in trouble. The divine leader was not a gracious one and she was especially harsh with people she found annoying.

"Greetings, Lady Yoko Tsurugi. It is an honor to be in your presence today."

Sean greeted quickly. Surprisingly enough, Lady Tsurugi looked just as annoyed as he was.

"Charlie, stop messing around with the kids. Officer Sean, there is no need to greet me formally the next time we meet. Also, I would like it if you tell me what the status of this investigation is."

Amane quickly took a seat inside the car. She was handed a paper by Sean and it had things marked on it by a red highlighter.

"Then things we highlighted are the likely clues we found while investigating this case. If you find anything of importance then let me know."

Sean did not care much for Yoko Tsurugi, but he felt his respect rising for the lady when she did not complain and took the briefing page from him.

Her serious expression scanned all the information before rechecking it once more.

"Sean, look away from my person. If you ended up having a crush on Lady Yoko, then it will not end well for you."

Sean was startled when he suddenly heard Charlie Suzuki's voice. He looked at his side, only to notice the divine leader's pissed-off expression.

The fox ears on top of Charlie's head were twitching and her expression was annoyed. It seemed as if she was trying her hardest to hold her temper back.

"I am not interested in Lady Tsurugi in a sexual way. I find her fascinating as a person and I wish to work with her."

Besides, Sean was sure that was something wrong with Charlie Suzuki. She gave off a weird feeling every time he looked at her.

At this point, Sean was sure that his instincts were trying to warn him about something. And he was going to listen to his instincts.

"I see. If that is the case then it is alright. You can continue to observe Lady Tsurugi as much as you want. But never go after her, alright?"

It was a mystery how Lady Yoko missed that whole conversation. She was busy looking over the papers and finding oddities in the cases.

"Hey, is everything alright? The air feels tenser than before and you both also seemed to not be paying attention to the case."

Yoko's voice was soft and melodic. It was yet another thing that puzzled Sean.

"Oh no. Nothing is going on here. You can continue to focus on your reports for now. I was just asking Sean about a previous case."

Sean had no idea why Lady Charlie chose to lie. But he was not someone who would expose someone else's secret.

Soon, the car pulled into the spot where the first crime had been committed.

The body had been disposed of already but the remains of that attack were still there. Many experts had been called in to try and find out what happened here.

And as it seemed, there were some beast experts on the scene today as well. One of the most famous beast experts was Ashley Tunner.

He was somewhat of an online celebrity and proficient in his profession. He could tell a beast cry just from hearing it once.

And he also had a following of students with him currently. He seemed to be teaching them about something.

All in all, Ashely Tunner was a good choice to try and solve this case. But there was only one problem when it came to him and his students - his massive pride.

"Lady Suzuki, you are finally here. Are you here to see someone great like me in action? I knew my reputation would bring you here to me one day. Let me show you how an expert in his field."

The man boasted about his success constantly. He did not notice that he was annoying Charlie.

Sean took a step back from his adoptive mother's side. He did not want to get caught in the verbal abuse that was about to happen.

But it seemed that luck was on his side and nothing like that happened.

Instead, Lady Tsurugi decided to kneel on the ground and rub her hands against the seemingly perfect ground.

She brought her hand up and looked at it with suspicion. Sean was sure that there was something in this environment only Lady Yoko could figure out. And bringing her along had been a wise decision on their part.

"H-Hey, what are you doing kid? This is a crime scene and you cannot contaminate it with your action."

Ashley Tunner yelled with a faint expression on his face while rubbing his chest.
