Arata and Shinji walks in the streets right after the explosion caused by them at Kanagawa Central Mall.
Our first phase succeeded...Shinji yawns But, Boy that's so boring!
Shut it, someone might here you! Arata just lets out a sigh.
Fine! You're no fun at all! Shinji lets out a sigh of defeat Anyways, do you think we manage to make the MPD wet their pants? Shinji whispered, His tone laced with arrogance.
Pretty much... Arata responds nonchalantly I'll go this way, it's also my first day at my new part time job. Arata pulls out something at his bag, its papers You go home and take this. Arata hands over the papers to Shinji, Then he leans closer to his ear to whisper something Go make the bombs for our next operation at home, the instructions and the expected appearance of the bomb is in that papers I have given you. He whispered coldly We'll also start the planning some time soon, for now, let's lay low a bit and wait for the right timing... what's important is that we have already prepared the things we needed. Arata adds.
Fine, I know! Shinji scowls Why can't you just take a leave of absence.
Take a leave of absence in my first day? Are you for real? Arata said annoyance evident in his tone And, I also need to keep our facade as normal teenagers! What you're suggesting will lead us to be suspected, it's enough that our homeroom teacher, Takahiro is already suspecting us of something. He whispered.
Oh, right! He must be some kind of genius...Shinji touches his chin as he wonders.
Anyways, let's part ways here. Arata without looking back, proceeds to walk in his way to the cafe his going to work from now on.
Geez! Shinji sighs and went to the opposite way to start what Arata asked him to do.
At the scene of the crime, The Kanagawa Central Mall.
What's the situation? Officer Natsuki asked one of the members of the Bomb Specialists Team that has been assigned in the crime scene.
Oh, Officer Natsuki He gave her a salute As you can see, We didn't make it in time...The Bomb Specialist sighed But, luckily no one has been harmed in both the people inside earlier and our team. He reported relief evident in his voice.
No casualties? Officer Natsuki lets out a sigh of relief But, those kids...I wonder who they are and what pushed them to do this kind of heinous act, they even declared war on our country. She looks at the sky as she ponders Is this really just mindless destruction or something bigger is at play here? A determined looked forms into her face Paramedics! Those who are wounded or injured cure them immediately, Bomb Specialists Team even though you failed to defuse the bombs your job still doesn't end here! Identify what kind of bomb has been used to destroy the Mall! She commanded confidently.
A sudden flashbacks from her childhood flashes in her mind as she look at the destruction caused by the mysterious duo.
"No normal child could have ever taught of doing this kind of mess as a prank, They are the real deal...In that case, We have to stop them as soon as possible." Officer Natsuki taught to herself.
At Sakurazaka Highschool Faculty Room, Takahiro just came back from the comfort room, When...
Mr. Takahiro, Your phone is ringing! Ms. Akira hands Takahiro's phone to him with a smile.
Oh, right! Takahiro takes a look at the number of whoever is in the other end of the call, His eyes looking suspicious I'll step outside for a bit again. Takahiro excuses himself and goes outside the room to answer the call.
He looks rather suspicious of the caller, I wonder who it is? Ms. Akira sighs I guess, It's none of my business. Ms. Akira quietly goes back to work.
Yes, hello? Takahiro answered the phone call, having suspicions about the caller.
Its been 7 years since our last conversation, Takahiro. The man in the other end of the call responds with soft tone.
Get straight to the point... Takahiro commands Superintendent Kuriyama He said his name with a cold tone.
Still isn't a fan of small talks are you? Superintendent Kuriyama clears his throat Then, I will not beat around the bush.
A moment of silence occured between the two, then finally after moments of awkward silence, Superintendent Kuriyama began talking again.
I would like to request for your help in this case, Former Senior Inspector Takahiro. Superintendent Kuriyama requested, His voice is shaky.
Takahiro's eyes widen because of the sudden request from his old friend, Superintendent Kuriyama.
After 5 hours...
At Kaido Internet Cafe where Arata is working as a part time waiter.
Here's your macha iced coffee, Sir. Enjoy your coffee...Arata kindly serves the coffee to the costumer's table.
Thank you, You must be new here? The man asks I am Hiroto, A Journalist and a regular costumer here. He stretches his arm for a handshake It's nice to meet you!
I am Arata, A new Waiter of this cafe. He shake Hiroto's hand It's nice to meet you too. He responds calmly.
"A Journalist...Looking at the contents of his laptop right now, seems like he's on our tail too." He taught to himself, maintaining a calm and friendly facade but deep inside he is cautious of him.
Oh, look a news report about the explosion from earlier! A random costumer said.
Hiroto, Arata, And all of the costumers and staffs of the cafe seems pretty interested in what happen and turn to the telivision to watch the news report.
I am Saki, A Journalist at MatsuNews! I am here today in front of the unfamiliar sight of Kanagawa Central Mall which has been targeted of the bombing 5 hours ago! The police believes that the viral masked duo of that bomb threat and declaration of war videos is the one who is responsible for the bombing and the bombing of Laplace Restaurant and Kanagawa Central Mall is completely aligned to each other. Here is Superintendent Kuriyama of the MPD to share his statements! Sir Kuriyama? Saki reports in professional manner, Her tone laced with cheerfulness and anxiety.
The bomb that have been used to blow up the entirety of Kanagawa Central Mall matches in the bomb that has been used to the Laplace Restaurant, the bombs are still being examined because it seems like a man-made bomb that we haven't seen before and we believe that the statement those duo masked man gives in their videos are true because it is evident now to us that they are willing to pick a fight and mock us on the spot. Therefore, there is no need to fear because we will do everything on our power to stop this mysterious perpetrators! Superintendent Kuriyama declares with determination.
Thank You, Superintendent! She bows politely and gives the Superintendent a salute The amount of information we have about this new case are still limited so we will update you once we have gathered some more! She enthusiastically announced Once again, I am Saki reporting for MatsuNews! Back to you at the main studio! She disappeared in the screen.
She really is cheerful despite what she's been seeing in front of her...Hiroto smiles as he said this with a soft tone.
Is she perhaps your partner? Arata asks, adjusting his glasses.
Yes, she is Hiroto lets out a sigh Unfortunately, I didn't have the chance to bring her here because she is too busy right now. Hiroto chuckles We are investigating this new case together, but i am on break right now! Hiroto yawns.
I see, Again, It's nice to meet you...Arata adjusts his glasses Mr. Hiroto. He said his name coldly.
That remark sends shivers in Hiroto's spine in unknown reasons.
It's nice to meet you as well. He smiles.
"What was that just now?" Hiroto taught to himself, he sips on his coffee with a sense of unease.
"I need to be cautious around that man, He and his partner seems to be a threat in our plans too." Arata taught to himself as he walks back to the counter.
Somewhere in Los Angeles, USA...
The news about the mysterious duo and their two bombings has been aired in USA as well the news sure spread like a wildfire.
A mysterious woman turned off the telivision after watching the news about it.
I feel something familiar about this...The mysterious woman mutters to herself The news said that two young individuals are the ones responsible to the bombing and it is well planned out enough for the police to be outmaneuvered by two lousy teenagers...She touches her chin thinkign for a moment, Then suddenly a realization hits her There is only one person I know that could be responsible for this...But isn't he supposed to be dead by now? but the precision of the attack and the genius planning also this sense of familiarity Her face formed a dark, psychotic grin and she chuckles I see, I understand it now...Donovan!
Yes, Madame Angeline? Donovan asks calmly.
Have my CIA TEAM prepared we are going to fly back in my home country...Japan! Angeline orders with an arrogant smirk.
I will notify them He said, adjusting his shades But, May I ask why? Is it because of that news? Donovan said, curiosity evident in his voice.
That's half of the reason...Well, The main reason is...A sadistic grin formed in her face I am going there to resume an unfinished game...With an old friend!
"You're it and I am pretty sure of it, My Beloved...Arata." She licks her lips as she taught that to herself.
