Somehow Darling ends up with her older brother at a barbecue restaurant with two of his co-workers from his new job. The three men are drinking while she drinks green tea, paying attention to the conversation. The older Murayama is sitting to the right of her, grilling the meat for the table as he talks to his co-workers who are sitting across the table.

"What? The Kanehira Brothers?" Murayama Yoshiki questions, holding a pair of thongs.

"Yes, I heard about them from a Sannoh guy." The platinum bleached blond hair says, putting down his drink. "Apparently, these Kanehira dudes are leading a gang called Kidra."

The angry looking one leans forward a bit. "Yocchan, you know these guys?"

Darling quietly snorts at the nickname, hiding her smirk with her cup and takes a drink. Now that's a great nickname that she is definitely going to use.

"So today, I'm 'Yocchan', right?" Murayama questions, receiving nods from the older males. He continues on by answering his question, "Those guys are total pricks. I fought it out with the older one once and beat the crap out of him. They'll do whatever it takes to get what they want. They're scumbag losers. Lowlifes. I hate their guts. They're douchebag brothers." He starts piling cooked mean onto his sister's plate. "So what about the Kanehira Brothers?"

"Well," The angry looking male leans more over the table, "those guys who are selling that, you know..."

"What?"

"Drugs." Darling quietly reminds her brother, gaining the attention from the three men.

"Oh! Redrum?" Murayama points the thongs as he realizes.

"Yes! That. They're pushing that stuff."

"Wow, are you serious?" Murayama questions.

"Is Arata one of them?" The angry one questions the blond.

Darling realizes she should have probably learned their names.

"I don't know yet."

"Goddamn."

Darling watches her brother smirk in anger, staring at the table. "Kidra, is it?" He clacks the thongs.

Darling's phone goes off which has her put her glass down, pulling her phone out of her back pocket. On the lock screen is a text notification from Kiyoshi. She unlocks her phone to read the text and curses under her breath when she is done reading.

"What is it?" Her brother questions, leaning over to read the message.

"Yasushi was jumped." She replies, picking up her cup and downs the rest of her green tea and puts the glass back down. Darling stands up from her seat, slipping her phone back into her back pocket. "I'll see you at home, Yocchan."

"But dinner?"

"I'll grab something from the convenience store. I gotta find out who I need to fuck up." Darling pushes her hair out of her face, leaving the restaurant quickly.

The next day, Darling has a couple part-timers go out and bring her more information because she does not know a lot about the attack currently. While she wait, she spends time on the roof with her friends, her long hair up in a ponytail. They find Kiyoshi standing by himself quietly, staring at something in his hand.
