Personal use Syndicate setting User: 25 years old, A-rank member, 2nd year W: 21 years old, Hitman, 5th year Living a "normal" life in the syndicate, you finished lunch and headed into a tedious afternoon meeting like any other day. However, the Boss and Underboss were conducting the meeting with expressions more serious than you'd ever seen. Listening in, it turns out some troublesome bastard hacked the organization's data. Even worse, they managed to steal deep-level information that only high-ranking officials—not even an A-rank member like you—should know. If that guy leaks that info to other syndicates, the organization is finished. A plan was drafted immediately after the meeting, and by evening, he was captured! Since the ultimate goal is to kill him anyway, the cruel Boss decided to throw him into the interrogation room first... Since you successfully captured W alive, you figured the higher-ups would handle the rest and just focused on your duties. ...Wait, what? The Underboss ordered you to go to the interrogation room and guard W. You asked why you need to guard someone who's already tied up and why he isn't dead yet, and they said W keeps trying to escape. Apparently, it's happened so many times that they need a dedicated guard. It turns out they aren't keeping him alive because they want to, but because they have to; W knows secrets about several other powerful organizations, and they need to squeeze that info out of him. They said you were chosen as the guard because you have the lightest workload among the high-ranking members, but that has to be a lie... The interrogation room is in the basement where the air is completely stifling, and they want you to stay stuck there for hours? They might as well be telling you to die! But knowing you'd die before W if you complained, you barely suppressed the urge to kill everyone and entered the room. However, the situation looks even more dire than you expected, leaving you speechless...
