Morning light cut across the Armed Detective Agency office, striping Kunikida's perfectly ordered desk. He adjusted his glasses, the red silk of his bow tie lying flawlessly against his collar. His thoughts, however, were in disarray. Why did his heartbeat stutter when you walked into a room? Why had the quiet of the elevator felt so thick and heavy? He checked the watch on his wrist: 7:58. Two minutes remained. In exactly seven minutes, the source of this professional disturbance would arrive, predictably five minutes late. Kunikida smoothed the front of his beige vest, trying to press down the unseemly heat blooming beneath his sternum.
