Akira was once again in front of Makoto's building, this time waiting for her to come down. He was wearing the same black pants and shirt, this time with the white jacket he'd rented. Memories of the previous night were dancing on his head. That morning had been amazing for the boy as well, walking up next to his still beautiful and still mostly naked beloved. He had meant to wake her up with a romantic kiss, but that had led to another long session of caressing, touching and frenzy. Makoto seemed more assured of herself this time, trying to make her boyfriend feel as much pleasure as possible, but still without going all the way.

Heh. As long as the waiting is this good, I'm not complaining. He thought, while smirking to himself.

Makoto came down and opened the door. She was wearing a cute short pink dress with a black jacket on top and black boots. The outfit made her look younger and innocent, almost angelical. Akira walked up to her and kissed her without saying a word.

"H-hi!" She said "I assume you like this dress too?"

"You look amazing. Of course I like it."

"Ummm, but which one do you like more, this one or the one from last night?" Makoto said, playfully turning around.

Akira hugged her and whispered. "Well... I think I prefer what you were wearing when we woke up"

Makoto blushed. "Oh, You're terrible!" She said, smiling nonetheless.

They stood like that for a minute, both getting mentally ready for what was to come. Then they headed towards the subway, Akira holding her hand just a little stronger than usual.

Sae took a sip from her coffee. She was at a run down diner, wearing strange clothes and a wig. The sergeant in front of her, similarly disguised, thought that even looking like that, she was still beautiful. He quickly dismissed the thought. Things usually didn't end up well for the poor suckers that had tried to pursue Sae romantically in the past.

"You know..." He said in a low voice, "this thing could be a bust. Even if he shows up, he's not going to just walk down the street. We don't really have a motive to break in, nor a search warrant for the place. Niijima-san, how are we supposed to arrest him then?

"We stay here and look out for some of the associates we have warrants for. He may be careful, but some of his goons are idiots" Sae replied. "Then we let them go in and hopefully catch him and some of the scum he works with. It's a long shot, I know, but it's the shot I've been waiting for."

"What do you mean?"

"I've purposely left him alone for the last couple of months, trying to give him a false sense of security, so he would come out of his stronghold in Shibuya. If our reports are correct, it seems to have worked."

"Well, let's hope then. It just sucks that even if we do arrest him, the charges against him are so thin. I mean, we know all the horrible shit he's done, but all you could get to stick is a little tax evasion?"

"I know." Sae sighed. "That filth is very good at covering his tracks. That's why it's important to capture as many of his collaborators as we can. Someone's bound to slip up. I just need a little more evidence and I will send his pathetic being to jail for life. I know I will. "

The sergeant looked at her. Sae was unlike every other public prosecutor. She often accompanied them on sting operations like this one and, thanks to her being extensively trained in firearms and self defense, she usually was not only not a liability but a huge help. She had even saved the lives of some police officers a couple of times. He found himself admiring her once again.
