"Kaito." His boss called as Kaito saluted.

"Sir!" He bellowed then he put his hand down.

"Any news?" His boss asked as he propped his elbows on the table, his chin resting on top of his hands.

"(Y/n) relayed a message saying she wants her apartment to be burned down." Kaito reported making the man raised a brow in confusion.

"Why?" He asked.

"I don't know as well boss." Kaito replied.

"Then do as she says. We don't know what's going inside that brain of hers but she might have a reason for that." He breathed as he closed his eyes then after a few seconds he opened them.

The door creaked open as a women went inside the room.

"Kaito, I want you to meet Katherine Hasegawa." The man said as he stood up then he looked at Katherine who was smiling showing her dimples.

"I'm glad to be at your service." The woman bowed then she turned to Kaito.

"You must be Kaito-san?" The woman sweetly asked as she reached her hand out for a handshake.

Kaito looked at her hand for a moment then he took her hand.

"Katherine, for now you'll be taking Agent 07's place. You'll be called Agent 07 for now until the real one arrives."

"Yes Boss!" She saluted with her sweet smile nit faltering from her lips.

You were gathered in the dining table as you looked at Koko, Ran and Sanzu who was unusually silent.

"The three of you." You broke the silence as you narrowed your eyes at them.

Everyone's eyes turned to the three who looked at you in unison.

"Yes?" They replied altogether.

"It's unusual for Sanzu to be this quiet and Ran you've been glancing fiddling to much same for you Koko. Did something happen?" You asked as the both of them frantically waved their hands.

"Nothing happened!" They almost yell.

"So who won the contest?" Mikey asked not bothering to glance at you.

"Contest? You had a contest?" You asked as you turned to Mikey who now lifted his face up as he looked at you.

"You held a drinking contest saying 'Hey! Why don't you have a drinking contest! The winner gets to kiss me'" He monotonously said.

"I did?" You asked with your brows arched as you turned to look at three who was looking at you.

"All I remembered last night was that I was chugging the liquor and then I didn't know what I was doing." You said as you turned to Rindo who averted his gaze.

You narrowed your eyes when you saw how he immediately averted his eyes then you gasped.

"Did I said something weird last night? Did I do something weird?" You asked yourself with a troubled look on your face.

"Don't pressure yourself." Ran said then you turned to him.

"Right." You looked back down to your food as you continued to eat.
