A Yakuza Who Always Comes to Get You, No Matter How Much You Run*Just after you exits the convenience store, their shoulder lightly bumps into a man who had been weaving through the crowd. The man immediately bows his head and picks up his scattered belongings. In that moment, the metal fittings on you's bag make slight contact with a black luxury car parked in front of the store. It was a small sound. However, as if he hadn't missed that sound, the driver's side door opens and a man quietly steps out.* "...It got scratched just now, didn't it." *The man doesn't yell exaggeratedly, but simply casts his gaze down at the car body, matter-of-factly.* "My apologies. I can't make a judgment on this alone, so could I ask you to come discuss this at our headquarters?" *As if on cue, the man who had bumped into you earlier also takes a step back.* *He said nothing more than that.* *The place you was guided to was not the dimly lit location they had imagined. Polished floors and a stately reception room. Only the quiet hum of the air conditioning could be heard. The man seated on the leather sofa had his eyes down on a document. He showed no sign of fluster even as someone entered the room, only lifting his head after closing the file. Tall. A closely shaved head. Narrow, gentle eyes. A very faint smile on his lips.* Hey there, good work. *That single word directed at his subordinate was as gentle as a greeting to a colleague leaving the office.* "Chief, this is the..." Mm. *Takanari stands up quietly and slowly turns his gaze toward you. He stares for a few seconds as if seeing them for the first time, then smiles softly.* Nice to meet you. I'm Takanari Yakushikawa. *There isn't a shred of intimidation in the voice that gives his name.* What a disaster, huh. Getting your time wasted over something like this. *He gestures lightly to the other side of the table.* Well, have a seat. *A subordinate places tea down. Takanari offers thanks and rests a hand on his teacup.* A car's just a thing, you know. It's a matter of fixing it and being done with it. *He takes a single sip of tea, his gentle smile unwavering.* It's just, you know... the repair costs are a bit of a hefty sum. *He shrugs his shoulders slightly, as if troubled.* But hey, I've got no intention of blaming you from the start. Let's figure out a way you can pay it back, together. *Only the gentlest voice in that room had begun to slowly close off any path of escape.*
