Thr ginger took a while to notice but he's being followed. Probably by someone by the name of Akutavawa. Chuuya already knew from the start but he shrugged it off. Higuchi knew it was Chuuya she met. However, Chuuya didn't think that Akutagawa would be so near. Akutagawa was just creating some distance because he knew how dangerous Chuuya was.
That made Chuuya smirk as he started running. Akutagawa, upon noticing that, followed. Chuuya was actually running the opposite way of the ADA office. Knowing how Akutagawa works, there must be more subordinates arriving. Akutagawa was just stalling time and cornering him. A good plan but Chuuya wasn't naive. Much to Chuuya's delight, Akutagawa didn't know Chuuya was aware of everything that was happening. With one turn into an alley, Akutagawa lost Chuuya. He clicked his tongue in annoyance as he fished out his phone. Little did he know that his target was right above him. Chuuya had used his ability to make himself float above Akutagawa. It seems he still had lots to know. Taking Akutagawa's ignorance as an advantage, Chuuya eavesdropped into his conversation with what he thought was the boss of port mafia. Knowing that the port mafia will be attacking the ADA again the next day, noon, Chuuya didn't really need anymore information. However, he could imagine Kunikida nagging him for not listening to Akutagawa when he could so he would stay put.
The whole conversation was mainly apologies from Akutagawa though. One part of the conversation caught Chuuya's ear.
"You want a meeting instead of an attack. But, Boss, that's risky. Especially right after we attacked them a few weeks ago." Chuuya could see the boy flinch and removed the phone from his ear before nodding to no one in particular. "Alright. I'll pay the ADA a visit." With that Akutagawa sighed and placed the phone back into his pocket. Despite agreeing with his boss about paying the ADA a visit, Chuuya could see that Akutagawa still wanted to search for him. Groaning, Chuuya thought up another idea as he slowly went back down to the ground, once his feet touched the ground, he saw Akutagawa turn swiftly around and glare at him. Chuuya smirked as he suggested, "Why don't I lead you to the ADA? A better chance for you. I'm pretty sure your boss won't hate you either." Still glaring at the ginger, the taller boy wanted to kill the man right in front of him but he had strict orders to never hurt the ginger from his boss. Sighing and massaging his temples, Akutagawa cursed himself as he nodded at Chuuya who's smirk became bigger. "Great! Let's go!" With that Chuuya left the alley with a reluctant Akutagawa behind.
If Chuuya knew the ADA would be hysterical, he wouldn't have offered Akutagawa help. The only sane people in the office now was Fukuzawa, Kunikida, Rampo and Kyouka. The rest were in their ready stance, some screaming and some running around like crazy animals. Chuuya could see Kunikida taking off his glasses as he slowly closed the door with Akutagawa looking at him confused. "Just wait for a while..." Chuuya murmured as he gently pushed Akutagawa back. Soon enough, a bang on the door was heard as Akutagawa slightly jumped. Screaming was heard as Chuuya massaged his temples. When everything was silent, Akutagawa went forward to open the door. He wanted to get this over and done with. Chuuya, however, stopped him. Looking even more confused, Chuuya dragged Akutagawa away from the door. Just then, the door slammed open and Kunikida threw what seemed like Atsushi out of the door. The weretiger landed in front of Akutagawa's feet as the standing boy's eyes widened. The blonde at the door coughed a few times before announcing, "You may come in. The President is in the meeting room." Chuuya chuckled slightly as he walked in without hesitation, trying to ignore all the concerning sights in the office. A few on the floor and some struggling to stand. The mafiaso behind Chuuya was the total opposite. He stared at at the state of the ADA members and muttered under his breath, "Weaklings..." it was thankfully inaudible to the rest.
The silver-haired man was sitting in his comfortable chair, his arms folded and eyes closed. Akutagawa stood up straight. He heard from his boss that he shouldn't mess with this man. Akutagawa was the type to not back down but when his boss tells him so, he would usually sit back respectfully. When Fukuzawa opened his eyes, Akutagawa bowed respectfully. When Fukuzawa gestured for Akutagawa to continue. "Message from my boss, he wants a meeting with you tomorrow to take down a organisation, 'The Rats In The House Of he Dead'. Further discussions I'll be held tomorrow at the port mafia base." With that, another bow from the boy and he left.
The president kept silent, not a word left his mouth. Chuuya always thought that Fukuzawa was a silent dog. He didn't say anything and it was impossible to know what's happening in his mind. The total opposite from his previous bosses. His previous bosses were talkative, it was obvious what they were thinking because of the expression on their faces. Dazai was a bit different, he could hide it well but he acted differently with Chuuya. Sweeping those thoughts away from his mind, he looked back at the president who glanced at him but closed his eyes again after realising all the ADA members were outside the meeting room. "We'll attend the meeting tomorrow. Don't let your guard down, especially you Chuuya." The ginger nodded but Kunikida wasn't pleased, "President. What if it's a trap?" Fukuzawa nodded and explained, "I thought about that too but I don't think their lying. Isn't that right, Rampo?" Upon hearing his name, Rampo jolted up from his seat and rushed tot he room, nodding. "I don't think their lying. The Rats In The House Of The Death organisation is giving both the port mafia and us problems. We shall attend the meeting tomorrow!" Everyone, after hearing Rampo's statement, agreed and walked away. Chuuya bowed respectfully and walked out of the room. He was met with Yasano, her arms akimbo, "Where's my supplies?" Chuuya totally forgotten about that and his hand made it's way to his neck as he rubbed it. "Sorry about that...I was running away from the port mafia, so..." instead of getting scolded, Chuuya was met with Yasano patting him on the shoulder and comforting him, "lt's alright...I understand." Chuuya sighed in relief until Yasano's grip tightened. Chuuya winced slightly, "You get them later!" Yasano's stomped off to her office. Chuuya stood rooted to the ground speechless.
