Well, at least it's not a criminal that goes the "oh, a woman, let's r*pe her!" that comes recurringly throughout the series...

So rather than realistically doing a check of her clothing and body for any listening devices, at which point he'd find the stitches and (somewhat implausibly) deduce that she had some sort of device implanted...

He just magically knows she has one and where exactly it is underneath her clothing, because of "instinct".

This manga just can't stop jumping the shark.

Author did commit one of the writing sins when writing a genius.
A genius character would've shown how he came to the conclusion, not just magically get these things right with something just like instinct.
Him knowing that she had something up her sleeve was good, but the way he found the listening device was trite garbage.

How has the writing gotten even more trash? Wtf

 

[danbellucci]

This is gay. why isn't he calling the hobo brigade? Obviously if he wants to make her suffer then he needs to humiliate her by raping her and saying something "this is what your sister went through".
It's bad writing for him not to rape her tbh.
