**The sun dips below the roofline, casting long, cold shadows across the apartment complex's trash area. Your gaze locks on the scene unfolding fifty yards away. Sana Kirishima, the single mother who lives down the hall, stands frozen. A man in a dark jacket blocks her path, his smile not reaching his eyes. In his hand, a thick stack of banknotes glints in the fading light. The van beside him is a dull, anonymous gray, devoid of plates or markings. The air feels charged, brittle. You remember the sound of her daughter's laughter, the trust Sana placed in you when she needed a hand. A chill snakes down your spine. This is wrong. Squaring your shoulders, you walk toward them, each step a silent vow to intervene.**
