He grabs a loose pant and gets out of his bedroom half naked. Last night, he went home to his own pad, located on the Eastern part of this city that opposite from Kier and Rudolf's pad buildings.
Daichi spotted the woman comfortably sitting on his black leather sofa while tapping on his phone. She wore his T-s.h.i.+rt and foot rested on top of his coffee table.
He went straight to his kitchen and prepared some breakfast. He toasted some b.u.t.tered bread and prepared a sunny side up eggs, then some bacon. He made some cuc.u.mber salad mix with lettuce and tomatoes.
He was placing the two plates on the table when two arms wrap around his waist. "I missed this..." she whispered in his ear.
Daichi turns around and he kisses the woman pa.s.sionately. After a long moment, the woman parted from him and laughs. "Are we going to have breakfast or not?"
"Hmm... okay. Let's eat," he remembers that Shun wants him first thing in the morning.
That guy seems not in the mood this morning and he wasn't sure what triggers his good mood yesterday.
He wanted to spend more time with Riley because it is rare for them to be together as she works directly to the Chairman. Well, who is she? Maybe he could say she is his girlfriend, or not?
Truth is, he already proposes to her twice but Riley is a free bird who more choose to fly as the Top Hitman known, the Red Sparrow. He can't cage her and locked her up.
While having breakfast, Riley discusses the virtual set up she created on his phone. Making strategies is Riley's expertise, something is common about them. They exchange opinion on best set up with the Security and their spots as the Eyes.
After breakfast, Riley pulled him up towards the shower room.

EMPIRE DRAGON HOTEL: Meeting Room
The Planner was trembling while doing his presentation. Of course, the meeting room is filled with gloominess. The air-conditioning is on its maximum cooling but everyone's forehead is sweating.
What happened to their president again? He was in a good mood yesterday. They all let out a nervous sighed.
Shun staring at the huge screen with dark gazes. He doesn't speak but he is throwing a fiery aura all over the meeting room.
Blaire glance at her brother then meets Kier's eyes. They exchange glances. She gestured what happen, but Kier just shrugged his right shoulder answering he doesn't know. Shun has a big smile yesterday, so what happens now?
Kier glance to his side where Daichi seated. That guy is late.

Hiryuu Island: Hiryuu Senior High building
The school building seems quite. But inside, students were in a mess. Their advisers were on a meeting for the upcoming Promenade next month. The school will hold a Festival before the night of the Promenade with the Seniors.
Ca.s.sie was busy typing on her laptop finis.h.i.+ng more paperwork to complete her projects. Joanna who she moves her table to face her is busy playing on her own laptop. Their cla.s.smates also doing random stuff like playing on their mobile phone and others just fooling around.
This scene is the same in every cla.s.sroom in that building. From outside, it was so peaceful, but then the students began coming outside and shouting. Others were yelling from their windows like almost jumping.
Most of them are the players who are addicted to the game Rudolf was developing. The teacher rushes to their cla.s.srooms to check out the behaviors of the students.
Others were rolling on the floor. The teacher doesn't know how to calm down the students.
Currently, the Game Developer emailed them that a special event will hold as the second year anniversary of the game. They will give away some cash to the winners. That is why every player was busy upgrading and buying diamonds.
Now the Special Anniversary Event is almost over, the system was down and no one can log in back.
"Check the Discord!" Shouted by others.
They also check in to the forums and check their emails for announcements. But these incidents not only happens in one place but all over the world.
There is no announcements and no words from the developers. The discussion has been heated up and filled with cursing. Many express their disappointment and anger.
The Discord and other forums storm with millions of players, including Joanna.
Ca.s.sie was open-mouthed watching her whining and jumping in front of her.
"Brother Rudolf must know something!?" she suddenly slammed her desk while staring at her.
"Are you sure about that?" Ca.s.sie asked confusingly. She was stunned by the scenes. The school was too loud.

CM International Tech Office
Rudolf enjoying his coffee while laying back on his chair. Kirk and Jules peeping on his door.
"Are you sure about this?" They asked worriedly wondering for the great impact on the game.
Rudolf smiled without worries. "Relax, we have a great back up. Don't worry about the sponsor."
The two guy glance at each other. Well, Rudolf explained very well about this. He has the full control of everything and he has the backup plans after this.
Jimmy entered his office and sit in one of the chairs in front of his desk. "Ah, I can't read the discussions anymore. My eyes tired of reading millions of messages. Am going to sleep."
"Let's order some pizza!"

EMPIRE DRAGON HOTEL: Meeting Room
The president began asking difficult questions. The board and the Executives tried to satisfy him for their convincing answers.
Daichi entered the meeting room and sit next to Shun. He handed him his phone. Instantly, a smile planted on his lips.
All the personnel inside that meeting room wanted to pa.s.s out.
Shun read the message Ca.s.sie sent to Daichi.
"Brother Daichi, can I call brother Shun? There's something I wanted to ask him if he is not busy."
