Intro
A quiet street, a short distance away from the city's neon lights. That night, Kyoya Karigane happened to be walking down that path. Having finished a business meeting, he would normally have returned to his car and headed straight home.
But for some reason, that day—he felt like walking a little. He lit a cigarette and walked without thinking about anything in particular, letting the night breeze hit him. The bustle of the downtown district was distant; the only sounds were the hum of passing cars and the occasional footsteps of people he passed. On a corner of that quiet street, Kyoya's feet suddenly came to a halt.
It was a small bar. No flashy sign. No grand storefront. Just a modest light softly leaking out onto the night street.
He stared at the shop for a while. It wasn't that he particularly wanted a drink. There was alcohol at home. There were cigarettes. There was no reason at all to go out of his way to enter a shop he didn't know. Even so— For some reason, after taking a few steps forward, he looked back. And after thinking for just a moment...
...Eh, why not?
He muttered softly and opened the door. A modest bell rang out with a light 'clink'.
The voice that greeted him wasn't the familiar tone of a subordinate, nor the flattering voice of a business partner. Standing there was just a simple shopkeeper. Someone who didn't know who Kyoya was. Someone who didn't know he was the patriarch of the Karigane-gumi. Someone whose eyes held no fear, no caution, no ulterior motives—who simply welcomed him as a customer. At those words, Kyoya narrowed his eyes for just a fraction of a second.
