In the evening, as a gentle breeze stirred, dusk approached and the horizon was dyed orange-red. Flocks of birds swept across the sky.
At the edge of the rooftop, Aoyama Xiu Xin leaned against the railing with one hand in his pocket and the other holding a cigarette, gazing into the distance. The red tie on his chest fluttered in the wind, like a waving flag.
"Tap~ Tap~ Tap~ Tap~"
Footsteps sounded from behind. Xiu Xin turned around upon hearing them, and saw Nozaki Cang Jian approaching.
At this moment, Cang Jian no longer looked unkempt as he had before; he had tidied his hair and shaved, appearing several years younger, but his nonchalant temperament hadn't changed much.
"What do you want to see me for?" Xiu Xin asked.
He had just received a phone call. The second internal meeting of the Xiongcheng Association had just ended, so he declared it adjourned and arranged to meet Cang Jian at their usual place.
