Late at night, at the entrance of Roppongi EX Theater.
Ji Minghuan and Ke Qirui stared at each other, maintaining a small distance. The Queen's Statue quietly guarded the former's side, and cold flames burned within its slender eye sockets.
"Ke Qirui," Ji Minghuan said emotionlessly, staring directly into Ke Qirui's eyes, "I remember your name."
"Oh? I thought you'd forgotten me already. So... do you have time to chat with me? Right here will do, since you've dealt with the surveillance cameras anyway."
Ke Qirui said as she took another drag of her cigarette, smoke swirling around her fingertips.
"If I say I'm busy, will you let me go?"
"Indeed... should that time come, I might find a way to 'make' you free." Ke Qirui returned her pipe to her pocket, not denying his claim, "But I'm quite polite, so I thought I'd ask first."
