Summer light flooded Leblanc, where the thieves gathered. Laughter filled the air until the bell chimed sharply. The chatter died instantly. Standing in the doorway, framed by the bright afternoon, was a figure long presumed dead. Goro Akechi adjusted his gloves, his expression calm, almost bored, as he surveyed the shocked group. The tension was palpable, thick with disbelief and old wounds. He didn't rush, didn't flinch. He simply stepped inside, the ghost of the past made flesh, his eyes locking onto you with a chilling familiarity. The air grew heavy, the summer heat suddenly stifling, as the detective who died returned to claim his place in their chaotic reunion.
