══════════════════

YOU WERE WITH TWO IDIOTS. THIS was beginning to get boring, the one sided bickering, the angry shouts Haru would do, Daisuke (pretty much) flirting with you, Haru then yelling at him to stop. All this happened in a fancy black car, which you assumed was Daisuke's - there was no way Haru could afford such a ostentatious car. You leaned agaisnt the car's frame, staring out the darkened windows, watching the scenery pass by. You just realised that you had no idea on what you were actually supposed to do for the job, and your attention shifted from the window and the boring landscape to Haru, once again disregarding Daisuke's flirting.

" Hey, Haru. " You nudged him, and he momentarily stopped his angry screaming at Daisuke. " What exactly are we doing? "

Haru stared at you. You stared at Haru. There was a moment of silence.

Haru burst out laughing, and you looked away, face flushing a bright red. " Shut up! I'm... No one told me about what we're actually supposed to do. " You huffed, crossing your arms and looking out the window again, " Stop being so mean. "

You heard snickering from the front seat, and you huffed once more, feeling annoyed that the billionaire was chuckling at you. You virtually 'hated' everything about him.

" We're here. " You opened the door, eager to get out, however, you appeared to be unsuccessful, struggling to push open the humungous door. Grumbling under your breath, you looked towards the other door, where Haru had exited the car. But, before you could move towards the other door, Daisuke opened the door for you, smirking. Seriously, what was with this man and smirking so arrogantly? Was it a general thing, or did he only do it to you?

You exited the car, mumbling a small thanks to Daisuke for opening the door for you.

" Anything for you, ( y/n ). "

" Where... exactly are we? " You asked Haru, and Daisuke almost looked dejected (you would've loved to see such an expression on his face, although he was pretty unbreakable), appearing to feigning rejection and disappointment, making you roll your eyes.

" We're at a chocolate store. " Haru answered your question, and you raised an eyebrow, " You know the bombers from the other day? " Your mind flashed back to the report you had typed up the other day, about some terrorists stealing money and containing a bomb, " Yeah, they stole from a chocolate store. "

" A chocolate store? " You stifled a giggle, and both Haru and Daisuke gave you a glare, " Seriously? Of all places to rob? "

" Mhm- wait, wait up, asshole! " Haru screamed, alerting the people around you, " Wait for me and ( y/n )! "

" So much for being courteous... " You muttered, feeling annoyance rise within you.

You followed Haru into the store, staring into the window that contained all the tasty looking treats and delectable delights. Your eyes gently sparkled as you gazed at the well presented (dark/white/milk) chocolate pieces.

" Ma'am? " You were brought out of your chocolate fantasies, " Would you like a sample? " Enthusiastically nodding, you grabbed a piece of chocolate, popping it into your mouth and indulging in the rich, creamy flavour.

" ( y/n ). The investigation. " You attention was still focused on the chocolates, but you opened your mouth, ready to remark- " I could buy you a box, ( y/n ). "

Usually, you would refuse any kind of expensive gift from Daisuke. However, this was chocolate. Chocolate. So, you mumbled a quiet, embarrassed ' yes ' towards Daisuke, face gently heating up again. He laughed (at you?), purchasing 10 boxes of chocolate from the female cashier, and telling her to keep the change of half a million. Once again, showing off with the money he had.

" Hey, the investigation. " Haru stopped you from immediately devouring the boxes of chocolates. He pointed to the female cashier, who frantically waved.

" You guys question her, I'll look around the store. " You placed a hand on your hip, staring at the some ripped cloth that you had found on the floor, racking your brain for any ideas on what sort of clothing it would've come from.

" Why are you looking around the store? " Haru asked, scowling at you for earlier on - when you put most of your attention towards the delicious looking chocolates.

" Because I'm most qualified. "

Daisuke smirked. " Because she's a- "

You quickly shushed him, whisper-yelling in his ear, " SHUT. UP. YOU CAN'T TELL EVERYONE THAT I'M A PRIVATE INTELLIGENT AGENT. A NAICHO AGENT. SO SHUT. I KEPT QUIET ABOUT IT FOR A REASON, IDIOT! "

Daisuke's smirk only grew wider, and you frowned, placing a hand on your forehead. " Just... scram. " The two left you alone in the store, and you examined the area in peace.

" We're trying to figure out who would've issued this bomb, " Haru explained to you, as you put the evidence collected into a plastic bag, neatly placing them in another bag. " I doubt that two broke teenagers, or adults, would be able to piece together an explosive device. "

You nodded, cleaning your hands so that you could delve into the chocolates bought for you. Daisuke smiled (a surprisingly genuine smile) at your actions, pushing up the dark shades on his face (you never really noticed them until now, he probably put them on to aid in his investigation).

" HEUSC, give me information about the explosive device. "

Wait, was he talking to himself? It appeared so, until you realised that: 1. This guy was rich. He could get the latest technology whenever and however he wants! 2. He was from the famous Kanbe family, what did you expect? Of course he'd have a personal aid, such as a butler or connections with someone of a higher rank. Which was what he was most likely to be doing. Speaking to someone who'd aid them in the investigation.

" HEUSC has provided me with information. I have paid the female cashier 5 million, for her aid in the investigation. "

" Do you really have to give out ounces of cash to everyone and anyone? "

" Jealous? "

" Of course not! It's just... seriously? They don't need that much- "

" I'm just being generous. "

" Hah! You make me laugh. You, generous? " You got back into the extravagant car, plopping onto the leather seats and opening a box of chocolate, stuffing yourself with the shaped luxuries. You offered Haru some, but he declined. He appeared to be irritated (more so than usual) with Daisuke, and you could only assume it was something that had happened during the questioning of the cashier. You'd take a look at what had happened later on.

As soon as you arrived back at the office, you made a dash towards your cubicle, placing yourself onto the uncomfortable wooden chair, and logging into your laptop, opening some software. If Haru was the one who was endorsing in suspicious activity, you'd be heartbroken. If Daisuke was the mastermind behind illegal affairs, then you'd still be pretty heartbroken. So you just had to hope it was neither of them.

You loaded up some of the security camera's locations, attempting to locate the chocolate shop's cameras (you had no idea why a chocolate store would have such security, but hey, it was worth a try). Luckily, you found a few cameras in the actual store, and you clicked onto the footage, plugging in some earphones, and trying to hide your laptop from the other workers.

And so you pressed play.
