Inside the restaurant, Xu Long and Kira finished discussing the important information each team had gathered on Choi Li Sun and the woman name Hua. However, the two did not leave the table as they were still finishing their meals.

"So, you suspect this Hua woman's real name is Ji Chu Hua?"

Kira asks after taking a sip of his warm tea. He was surprised when he heard the name. He has never met Ji Chu Hua, but he knows that she is Yue Ling's cousin.

He set the cup of tea down and stares unblinking at the piece of paper Xu Long had shown him of Ji Chu Hua's information with an attached photo.

"Are you sure?"

Unlike Kira's calm appearance, Xu Long was the total opposite. He held his chopsticks in one hand while in his other hand was a piece of drumstick from the roasted chicken he ordered.

He had only taken a bit on the drumstick when he heard the questions. His brows furrow and he tilted his head to the side.

"I'm not 100% sure, but she was in the underworld to meet a suspicious person."

He was referring to the night he, Liu Shan, and the other went to Glory to find Steelhead. However, it wasn't him, but Qi Li who saw Ji Chu Hua. After they learned about this news, they've been keeping a close eye on her and it was then that they learned the person she's meeting in secret has the same appearance as Choi Li Sun.

However, despite him telling Kira this, he can't tell the whole truth because his new family is part of the underworld. He will never stab them in the back and allow them to get caught.

He glances down at the paper Kira was still looking at that had the information of Ji Chu Hua and he stops eating.

"Of course, that doesn't mean we're claiming she's the woman name Hua, but we can't be too careless."

Some of Wolf Team thinks Ji Chu Hua is the woman, but he doesn't. He had compared the photos millions of times and the photos of Ji Chu Hua from behind did not match the one of Hua.

The woman in the photos with Choi Li Sun was slimmer, whereas Ji Chu Hua was also slim, but she had more curves.

Kira glances up at the assistant. He purses his lip with a slight frown. If Ji Chu Hua is a suspect and involved with Choi Li Sun, are they not going to tell Yue Ling?

No, they can't. They are working with Lu Tian and his team. They can't give away any clues that they know Yue Ling.

Oblivious to the samurai's true thoughts, Xu Long leans forward and whispers with a serious expression.

"Bro, I've been doing some serious thinking. Is your name really Yamato Kira?"

Kira was still in a daze when he heard the question. He chokes on his saliva and pats his chest to calm himself.

"It's my code name."

He answers without the need to think. He found Xu Long to be a trustworthy man despite their first-time meeting. However, seeing the assistant's eyes lit up, he (Kira) sighs as he could already guess when Xu Long wants to ask.

"My real name is confidential."

"…"

The lights in Xu Long's eyes disperse like a lit candle suddenly blown out. He sighs in disappointment and starts to gather his things together.

"Alright, but since we've discussed what is needed, I'm leaving. Our side will continue to monitor Ji Chu Hua's moves, while you guys continue to collect intel on Choi Li Sun."

His words fell calmly, and he looks at Kira in the eyes.

"I'm not leaving because you don't want to tell me your name. I am leaving because I am a very busy man with things to do at night."

Kira was baffled by his sudden words. However, he forces himself to not laugh and nods his head in agreement. He watched as Xu Long close his briefcase and he suddenly remembers something.

"Oh, I forgot to ask. Do you think you can help cover our tracks?"

He is a hacker for Faith, but with Qin Jun's mistake, there's no doubt Yue Ling must have already informed Liu Shan to look into them. As one should know, Liu Shan's skills when it comes to technology is beyond better than his (Kira). However, if Xu Long agrees, maybe Liu Shan won't be able to find them.

Xu Long was already standing when he was asked for help. He narrows his eyes at Kira as he found the man's words to be very questionable. However, he shakes it away and shrugs his shoulders.

"I'll do what I can, but don't cause any trouble for my boss."

He doesn't say anymore and walks away from the table like a cool and man protagonist in a novel.

Kira watched him leave out the restaurant and he chuckles lightly. He found Xu Long to be a very interesting man. His head turns to the window and he stares at the pouring rain and he thought back to one of Xu Long's question.

When he first moved to City Z, he was only a teenage boy and a foreigner in a foreign country. Others would often bully him for being different since he didn't socialize much, but one day while he was cornered, God sent him two saviors.

Shin and Qin Jun. To meet them was the best thing that ever happened to him.

After meeting them it was then that he started to stand up for himself as he didn't want to weak and depend on them all the time.

Shin would laugh and joke saying he was like Yamato Kira. Someone who dislikes fights and conflicts but is willing to fight in order to protect his friends and loved ones.

It was because of this reason that no one called him by his real name anymore.

Even if his real name is forgotten, he does not care. He will continue to live with this nickname in memories of his deceased brother.

The trickling sound of rain brings him back from memory lane and he looks away from the window. He gathers all the remaining papers on the table and puts them in his bag before standing up to leave too.

As he exits the restaurant, he sighs at the rain does not seem to stop anytime soon. Reaching for a baseball cap he had put in his pocket he puts it on and lowers his head.

He makes his way to his car that was parked around the corner, but just when he was about to make the turn, a figure steps out and their two bodies collide.

"Woah, my bad."

He apologizes and looks up at the person he had bumped into. However, when he saw the person's face, his eyes tremble as they widen.

"Y-You… How…"

His words fell in a stammer and he was unable to finish the rest. The figure in front of him was the second person he did not want to run into.

"W-Why are you here?"

The person stares back at him as they stood at the same height. There was no smile on the person's face, but only indifference.

"I should be asking you that question."
