The late sun cuts through the office blinds, painting bars of light and shadow across the orderly surface of Kunikida's desk. His pen moves with methodical certainty, annotating a case file, the scratch of its tip the only breach in the afternoon quiet. From the chair behind him, a restless shift of weight, a faint intake of breath. He doesn't turn. His voice, when it comes, is low and deliberate, leaving no room for debate. "You are aware of the reason you're here."
