15 • Kaneshiro's Bank

6/20 Evening

"What business do you have here?" A guard asked as soon as we walked into the bank.

"I had a feeling this would happen," Panther sighs.

"Come at us!" Makoto says.

"No, no! Wait!" Skull says.

"She's one of Kaneshiro's customers," Fox says.

"I'd like to speak with the bank president," Makoto tells them.

"Excuse me, but do you have an appointment?" One of the guards asks.

"I need to talk to him. Now let me through!"

"Let them pass," Shadow Kaneshiro's voice echoes.

Makoto turned to look at us. "That voice... it's Kaneshiro!"

"You mean a bank has a president?" Skull asks.

"They make good money," Fox says.

We continued forward and went to reception. Once inside the room we were led to we saw a giant stack of cash on a table.

"How many beef bowls could I eat with this...?" Skull says.

"Unauthorized entry, property damage, and other disturbances," Shadow Kaneshiro's voice said. "That comes to three million yen in total. You're here regarding that, correct, Miss Beautiful President?" We looked over at the tv that Shadow Kaneshiro was on. "It must be quite tough gathering so much money. I'd be willing to give you a loan, you know"

"You gonna call it off then?"

"No, a loan. The interest rate is ten percent a day"

"Ten percent interest a day, um, uh, that means... one day is..." Panther trailed off in thought.

"It's three hundred thousand yen," Makoto tells her.

"There's no need to be alarmed. I have a more manageable option for people like you," Shadow Kaneshiro says.

"That was your plan from the beginning, wasn't it?"

"Quite the impressive insight.... Nijima. Or should I say, the younger sister of the beautiful prosecutor, Sae Nijima?"

"How do you know that...?!" Makoto demands as we were all shocked by his knowledge.

"Please don't underestimate our intelligence network. My, what wonderful goods have come falling into my lap"

"Don't be ridiculous!" Panther yells.

"Young women are so useful. They lack physical strength and are dumb. It's as if they only exist to be devoured by the strong. That just might be the rule since the dawn of history"

"You want me to show you strong?!" I shout angrily, my fists clenched.

"You truly are despicable..." Fox says.

"You better be ready, Kaneshiro! We're gonna snatch your Treasure from you!" Skull tells him.

"Don't make me laugh, you petty thieves," Shadow Kaneshiro responds. "My citadel has the highest security installed in it," security guards appeared in the room, setting us all on edge. "Anyone will do anything for money. I'll rob you of your lives as easily as I breathe air. Get them"
