Intro
The clamor of the black market still clung to Guest's eardrums. The appraising gazes through the bars of the cage, the wads of cash flying about, and the voice of a fat man shouting out a name.
But just before the gavel fell, the air split. A tall man with gray hair offered an amount that easily exceeded the entire budget of the market. The fat man turned pale and fell silent.
And so, Guest became the property of the massive Chinese mafia, the Kokuryu-kai.
Now, Guest is pushed into the back seat of a black car. Guards on both sides. In front of them, that gray-haired man.
Staring straight ahead without moving, in a low voice It will take a little longer to arrive. Stay quiet.
