Soo Yun POV:

Soo Yun was again sitting somewhere waiting for Mark. This time they have agreed to meet each other in a café quite far away from Soo Yun's suite. She was again masked and annoyed, that her partner never was able to be on time.

She looked nervously on her watch. He was already ten minutes late. Not much for a normal meeting, but she didn't want to be in public. So the time spent in public should preferably be as short as possible.

A server reached her table and gave her a steaming cappuccino. The guy eyed her from the side. "Miss, you can take your mask off in here, we have a good air purifier." Soo Yun didn't have a good argument to keep it on so she tried to find one quickly.

"No, I am fine. I j-just uhh...I have an allergy." She stuttered.

The guy lifted his eyebrows and nodded. "Alright miss." He bowed down and walked away with a silver tray. Soo Yun huffed out some air. But she figured out, that she had to take off the mask anyways if she wanted to drink her coffee.

"Damn it." She whispered and took her mask off. Just as she wanted to take a sip of her way-too hot coffee Mark sat down in front of her. she put her cup down and looked at him with an annoyed face.

Mark breathed quickly and while he was trying to calm down, he took off his backpack which he placed between his legs. "Hey Soo Yun."His voice was breathy.

"Hi Mark." Soo Yun said monotonously.

Mark lifted his hand to show the servers that he wanted to order something. "An iced americano please." He then turned his full attention to Soo Yun. "Sorry, I'm late again."

"Oh really? I didn't notice." She said sarcastically.

Mark looked at her with a straight face. "But I have news." Soo Yun's eyes enlightened by this and she leaned forwards. "What kind of news?"

Mark lifted up his backpack and brought out a small envelope. He placed it on the table and slid it over next to Soo Yun's cup of coffee. "This is for you, it's a USB stick. I have all the things on there."

Soo Yun nodded understandingly. Mark let his backpack fall next to him and leaned himself on the small round table. "Okay, I was on the search for information in the last three days. I had to dig really deep, but like I always say," He smiled proudly. "Every human leaves traces."

Soon Mark's coffee arrived. He gulped it down in one go. Soo Yun eyed him. But Mark quickly continued to explain his achievements.

"So, I was saying..." He pushed the empty glass away. "They have very good cyber protection. There's almost no information about them in the internet. But, two days ago I had another idea. I enrolled myself as a new worker for their gang in the dark web. I asked around and found many people, who didn't hold their mouthes as they probably should've."

Soo Yun nodded while listening closely to his words. From time to time she checked, if there was anyone listening to them, or looking at them suspiciously.

"They told me that no-one has ever met them in person. They have people who work for them, who give jobs to people who work for them again. It's all a big net of people working for each other."

"That's quite normal for a gang." Soo Yun didn't see anything interesting about it.

Mark scoffed. "Yes, but wait. The one guy I was talking to was actually part of the gang members who came here to Tokyo to enlarge their territory. So now we know their motive. But it gets better."

Soo Yun frowned. "Like what?"

Mark leaned back. "After chatting with him for almost an hour he told me indirectly that there will be a coup on Tuesday in one of the Yakuza's local places."
