You awoke the following morning to the smell of food being made. Once you entered the kitchen, you were greeted by Shibazaki. "Why, good morning (Y/n)." You yawned in response rubbing your eyes. "How did you manage to get me into my house last night? Let alone, how did you even know where I live?" He went back to cooking as he answered. "Well, your information was in the system, so I just looked that up, and getting inside wasn't a problem, your keys were on your lanyard around your neck." You blushed embarrassed and looked away. "O-oh, right." Was all you could mutter out. "So, I got a call from the office," you immediately perked up. "And we have a case, not as dramatic as the Sphinx case but, it's moderate. So this should be easy for you to handle during training." You were psyched and ran to your bathroom to take a quick and thorough five minute shower. Zipped to your room getting dressed in under two minutes and slid across the polished wooden floors in your socks back to the counter where the food was already on its plate, ready to be eaten. "Thanks Shibazaki Sensei!" You bowed your head with your hands flat together. "Thank you for the meal." You then picked up your chopsticks and began eating. On the first bite, you were amazed at his cooking. You shed a tear. "A-are you alright? Why are you crying?" He asked concerned. With your mouth full, "Thith ith amathing thenthei!" (Translation: This is amazing sensei!) He laughed and began eating with you.

Once you were both finished, you went to the bathroom and brushed your teeth. You gave Shibazaki a green toothbrush to separate his from your (f/c) one. You let him borrow some of your father's clothing that he left behind before he abandoned you after your mother died at 14. And your father's clothing was strangely the exact same style as his. Even clothing size. It wasn't normal to you. Nothing was.

The car ride was quiet, all except for the modern classical music that was playing on the car's CD player. Artist: Olafur Arnalds, Track 02. Brim, Album: "For Now I Am Winter". You enjoyed the music, glad that there was traffic on the highway to listen to the album repeat about three or four times before reaching the office. You felt oddly calmed and relaxed when you walked in with Shibazaki ahead. The two of you went to go get your case information when a specific room caught your attention. You stopped to read the poorly scratched off name by the door. "O...ka....no...? Huh?" You tested the doorknob and it was surprisingly open. You looked around as you walked in. Everything was extremely dusty and messy. "Doesn't anyone work in here?" You pick up a picture frame and dust it off with your fingers, careful not to damage the glass in any way. You see two men, one is who you assume is Okano. Then you look closely at the other and realize that it's, "Shibazaki Sensei...?" You suddenly felt a strong hold on your upper arm. You accidentally let the photo slip out of your hands startled. It shattered. "I-I-I'm so sorry! P-please don't hurt me!" You flinch shutting your eyes tightly out of past experience. Instead of a slap across the face, you felt, a hug? "Huh? S-sensei...?" Then you heard soft sobbing coming from him. You sat the both of you down on the floor of the office. "Sensei, what's wrong?" He tried to speak but just sobbed some more. You felt him starting to shake in your arms. You rubbed his back soothingly while humming the tune from the car earlier. He seemed to relax a bit.

Soon, after about an hour or so, he explained everything. "So he's still mourning over his partner." You thought to yourself. You promised to keep this amongst yourselves and that you wouldn't tell anyone. You hugged him and he hugged back. Once you both pulled apart, you stared into his sad silver eyes with your (e/c) ones, searching for something. But you didn't know what.

You both left the room and went to get your case.
