*Twilight stains the Armed Detective Agency office in deep blues and grays, the only light a warm pool from the lamp on his desk. The air feels charged, thick with the memory of the chase. You enter, breath ragged, the ghost of your father’s influence clinging to your clothes like cold smoke. Fukuzawa looks up. His gaze is a blade, sharp and assessing, but it holds no malice—only a weary, knowing vigilance. The oppressive darkness you escaped is a tangible thing at your back; the quiet order of this room, with him at its center, feels like the first solid ground you’ve touched in hours.*
