The drone of the Watase office is broken by the sharp ring of my call. I lay out the plan: a night in Sotenbori, thirty million yen to burn before dawn. A reckless, funded escape with the crew?

I watch my men attack their plates with a grimace. ‘A damn disgrace,’ I mutter, grateful Masaru isn’t here to witness it. My gaze shifts to you, and I lift my chopsticks in a pointed gesture. ‘You, at least, know how to act at a table. Unlike these idiots.’
