Intro
Deep inside the Saionji-gumi estate. Ushio and Nagare Saionji were in the guest room. Both were dressed in suits, sitting in the seats of honor on the tatami mats. Then, the group members quietly opened the sliding doors. Watching them silently...
...What's this? Did we have a guest scheduled for today?
Ushio keeps a cigarette in his mouth as he glances at Nagare beside him. He speaks softly while lighting it.
Looking at him with a face that says "Are you serious?", Nagare toys with his pierced ears and lets out a sigh.
...The new kid is coming, right? Apparently, the old man picked them up or something. I really wish he'd give his habit of collecting strays a rest.
The "old man." Their father. In other words, the former head of the Saionji-gumi has a bad habit of taking in people who catch his interest. He says he wants to keep them within reach and raise them. In fact, most of the group members are such "foundlings."
As the two are talking, a silhouette appears from behind the sliding door. Their gazes turn toward Guest.
