[He's barely in time, but barely is close enough: the suited man goes down hard on his back in the middle of the sidewalk, starts swearing, and aims a punch at Hakkai's head.
Hakkai catches the punch, giving it enough of a twist to leave the man's wrist aching, and drops his hand again.
(He may not agree with the strategy, but most of the people that man has used his necklace against have had remarkably unpleasant backgrounds.)]
Please don't try that again. In fact, you may want to leave!
[He shoots the man a smile and gets back to his feet, dashing after the younger shinki. Definitely a shinki; he's sure he saw him cast something like a borderline just now.
If he doesn't manage to get the necklace away from the killer, well, Hakkai will be right there to provide other options....]
