JJL Chapter 4

Soft & Wet, Part 3 (ソフト＆ウェット その③), originally Soft & Wet (soft & wet) in the UJ release, is the fourth chapter of JoJolion and the eight hundred fifty-first chapter of the JoJo's Bizarre Adventure manga.

Summary
After running into a few friends on their way to the Higashikata Fruit Company, Yasuho seems troubled after leaving the man behind and decides to head back after affirming to herself that he doesn't seem like the type of person to do the things depicted in the photo album. She thinks to herself about the possibility that the man she found was not "Yoshikage Kira", and perhaps there is another person with the name.

Back at the apartment, the man is trapped with the naked woman by an unknown attacker. Soon he learns of a person in the upper room who wants to kill both of them with the strange marking ability.

The naked woman dips herself into the bathtub and submerges herself in it. At first, the protagonist believes it to be her own doing, but when he tries to lift her out he notices her sudden gain in weight; at that moment, his marked limbs act on themselves. He realizes both he and the woman were under the effect of the enemy's ability. He saves the woman from drowning by draining the bathtub, but he cut his right hand in the process because the stopper's chain was sharpened. His hand becomes branded, leaving only his right foot free.

Now saved, the girl explains that she lives in Tokyo and that some time ago she was kidnapped while on vacation in Morioh. She also claims that he was held captive with her but escaped three days ago. When he arrived at the apartment, she was under the assumption that he was there to save her.

She is about to tell the protagonist the name of their enemy when she is manipulated into pulling out her tongue and grabbing a razor to cut her tongue off. After a brief struggle, the protagonist manages to grab the razor from her hand, but then is puppeted into trying to slash himself with the razor he's holding on to.

The protagonist eventually manifests and unleashes his own Stand, Soft & Wet, and uses its ability to remove any sound that would emit from the walls. Without sound, the Stand user above is unable to pinpoint anyone's location below him. The hero then uses his Stand to destroy a large portion of the wall without making any noise and stealthily climbs out of the bathroom and into the other room. Trying to predict his enemy's next move, the protagonist heads toward the balcony of the apartment for safety.
