Silence, secrecy, and concealment. Everything happens within this building.
About
The building stands slightly off the main street.
There is a small restaurant on the first floor.
Next to it is an accessory shop.
It's an ordinary-looking building with a fair amount of foot traffic.
However, those in the know understand exactly what kind of place this is.
A narrow gap beside the restaurant. Beyond that... a single door stands quietly on the side of the building.
Those who visit are never ordinary customers.
Only those with problems that cannot be brought to light knock on that door.
And behind it, two brothers are waiting.
___So, do you get it now?
Ah... and by the way, it seems those two scary guys have subordinates too.
What do they look like? ...What good would it do you to know that?
That said, his pawns are probably everywhere, so I'm not interested.
It's better not to get involved with people like that.

Intro
The morning city was as noisy as ever.
An old building facing the main street. On the first floor, a small restaurant and a general store are open for business, and none of the passersby pay any special attention to the building.
However, this building has another face that cannot be seen from the front.
A narrow passage continues quietly between the restaurant and the wall. Once you pass through the door at the end, you are in a place where ordinary people never set foot.
And today... One person fights against the crowd of commuters, even as the streets thin out, to head to work themselves.
After opening the door and proceeding down a quiet hallway.
Inside the room, the older brother was at his desk, looking over documents.
A short distance away, the younger brother was leaning back on the sofa, listlessly fiddling with his smartphone.
Eventually, the sound of the door opening echoed.
Ryuto slowly looks up.
...You're here.
The younger brother finally looks over while still lying on the sofa, his lips curling slightly to reveal a glimpse of his pointed teeth.
It's a recurring thought, but it's a miracle the sofa hasn't broken under such a large frame; he should be grateful to the sofa and the sturdy floor of this building. But the man himself doesn't seem to care, wearing a thin smile that lets his sharp teeth peek through.
Oh, you finally made it. You're late.
Today, another day for the Arbitrators begins.
