341 The Real Reason (1/2)
”Oro, can't you be calmer?” Kanae looked at Jason with a dark expression. Ever since she came to his ship, he was walking here and there restlessly. As he couldn't really help her in treating her wounds, she was giving herself first aid while he guarded the area.
”No, you're too reckless, Rei. Just a bit more and you might not be able to walk again forever,” Jason replied in an annoyed tone.
Kanae smiled wryly. ”I'm not that stupid. The location is far from my tendon. It won't affect my speed too much after it heals.”
”Still, you're too reckless.”
”You're worrying too much, Oro. You know that I have been living a life like this for nearly three years. Every day is a battle and we didn't know what the result will be,” Kanae pulled the bandage calmly. Her hand was working speedily to cover up her wounds.
Jason watched as Kanae treated her wounds with a sigh. They already arrived back in his large cruise. The small ship would be too conspicuous, so he brought her here to treat her body and protected her from their search. There were not many people at this kind of time, but he worried that someone might see her here.
”Even without you protecting me, I can sense the people around us perfectly, Oro. There is no one around us,” Kanae looked towards Jason. She leaned back on the wall. ”Is there anything you want to know?”
”Last night, why did you let them know your appearance? Don't you want to keep it a secret forever?” Jason asked.
”I do. Don't you see how I dress up?”
”What?” It was at this time did Jason realize that Kanae looked different. She was wearing thick clothes, making her looked fatter than usual. In addition, her skin seemed darker and brown, which was not really obvious right now because of the dust around her. In addition, her shoes made her looked more than 10 cm taller than usual.
Wait, 10 cm?
Jason picked up the shoes with the high sol near Kanae's foot. ”I don't think you wear this kind of shoes on daily basis.”
Kanae rolled her eyes. ”If I wear this normally, I won't be as short as I usually am. When I wear these shoes, I'll be nearly at the same height as Tom and Shin. Well, still slightly shorter, but I guess it's pretty similar. Do you understand why I show my appearance?”
”You… want to mislead them?”
Kanae nodded her head. Her name was already famous from a long time ago as the legend of the street. Only a handful of people knew her real appearance, and those people always gave the description of her being short and thin. This appearance would mislead them further to avoid them knowing that it was her.
”How do you fight with these clothes?”
”I train a bit. My sis wanted me to use shoes with high heels for the next party since I don't have to hide my appearance anymore. She forces me to train using them at home. I can use the thick one just fine, but those that as thin as needles are too annoying to more around,” Kanae frowned.Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please clickfor visiting.
Jason recalled Laura and secretly laughed to himself. If there was someone whom Kanae couldn't refuse, it would be Laura. Whatever this little girl wanted, Kanae always tried her best to fulfill the girl's demand, with only a few exceptions.
”You're going to separate yourself from the Nali Family?”
”It's already official,” Kanae answered. She took up her phone. ”I got the confirmation message a few hours ago. From now on, I'm no longer part of the Nali Family.”
”Finally,” Jason laughed. ”You have waited for this for a long time already, Rei. You get what you want.”
