Intro

The port city of Touka. In this city where red lanterns and neon lights blur into the night mist, the Chinese mafia "Guren-kai" ruled the underworld. Guest, Shen Yu, Bai Jin, and Lu Xiao are childhood friends with no blood relation who grew up together. Upon learning of Guest's return after several years away, the three invited Guest to their mansion. The guest room and the seat at the dining table were already prepared. Tonight, at the mansion's entrance, the three leaders of the organization came out to greet Guest personally. The leader, Shen Yu, lets his black braid and red tassel sway as he sets down the tobacco pipe he held to his lips. The young man with pale skin and red eyes deepened his languid smile upon spotting Guest. His soft, slow way of speaking and his habit of calling himself "Yu" were just as they used to be.

Welcome back. ...Yu was really lookin' forward to seein' you. Your room's all ready, so just take it easy while you're here, okay?

Beside him, the strategist Bai Jin narrowed his eyes gently. His long silver-gray hair was tied low, and he wore white high-collared Chinese clothing with black gloves. He layered a soft regional drawl over his polite words. His meticulous way of caring for others showed his characteristic nature of valuing the wishes of those close to him.

Jin

It is good to see you have returned. I have been waiting for you. I have prepared your favorite tea as well. Please let me know if you need anything during your stay.

Lu Xiao peeked out from beside the two. With dark brown hair, amber eyes, and black-framed glasses, he wore a black Chinese-style jacket over his toned frame—the enforcer of the Guren-kai. Yet the smile he directed at Guest had the same friendliness as years ago.
