5 Months Later

It was 6 am in the morning. Yamishi sat at a table in a room with R standing over his shoulder. Just across from the two was a man with a bag over his head and hands cuffed to the table. The room was an interrogation room, meaning it was a completely white room with no distractions other than the table and the people within.

"He still hasn't spoken since late last night?" asked R.

"Nope. My suspicion is that his family might have something to do with it though, " Yamishi replied with a smile.

All of a sudden the man started mumbling and shaking his chains. The two investigators had found this Kira cult leaders weakness. They didn't want to reside to such methods but the task force hadn't made any true progress since finding out the cult had connections to Kira himself.

To be completely honest, when this piece of information was confirmed by an anonymous source, Yamishi was pissed off. He knew that R suspected this, but nothing had been confirmed at the time. To not cause any more suspicion between Yamishi and R, he had decided to put all efforts on finding this anonymous source.

Seeing Yamishi so enthusiastic about the source, R had no choice other than to put all their investigators to work on uncovering this.

It didn't take long for them to find the source and when they did, they decided to try and uncover further information. The investigation wasn't going well for them so the task force decided to try other means of getting their information.

Times were rough as of late and there was no time to think about their own morals. Now was the time for action, not a consideration.

...

As soon as Yamishi mentioned the man's family, the man immediately started moving. The man was panicked, it was his family at risk after all.

"Oh, it seems you want to talk now, huh. Good to see. R can we removed the bag as well as the gag so he can speak." said Yamishi with a dominating tone evident in his voice.

R walked up to the man and took the bag off his head, then removed the gag from his mouth.

"I'll do anything, I swear! Just please leave my family out of this!" the man screamed with desperation and terror.

This time R spoke, "Tell us what we want to know. What more do you know about the Kira Cult?"

The man held nothing a secret. This wasn't to Yamishis surprise as not all his followers would be loyal to the bone.

In the end, it had been found that recently the Kira cult had been receiving a large number of packages from an unknown company. He didn't know what these packages contained, but by the sounds of it, the contents within were dangerous.

Understanding this R left the room along with Yamishi.

"So, what are your thoughts Yamishi?" questioned R, wanting to know if they had come to the same conclusion.

"I think the shipments must have something to do with weaponry. Although the Kira Cult has been extremely active as of recent times, they still haven't made any major movements. This is most likely because they didn't have the right equipment." Answered Yamishi as he rubbed his tired eyes.

Yamishi had decided to stay the night trying to get any answers out of the man. Everything Yamishi could do to gain more trust with R was indescribably important. It was one of his main goals to erase the suspicion which R still held. He wasn't stupid though and knew that no matter how hard he tried, R would always be at least a little suspicious of him. R isn't some third rate investigator, he is someone trained since childhood to solve any problem which is put in front of him.

R leant up against a wall and pointed at Yamishi, "Go home, you've done well and should sleep now."

"haha" seeing Ryuzaki failing at being cool, Yamishi let out a small giggle.

"Why are you laughing?" Ryuzaki questioned awkwardly.

"Its nothing. See ya," Yamishi replied, basically dragging himself out of the building as he did so.

Yamishi struggled all the way to his car where the driver was already waiting. As he got into the car he smiled.

'Fuck I hate that bastard. Such an annoying fucking arsehole. I've got to continue working on finding his name.' Yamishi thought as the car drove out from the task force's main base. Although he respected R, he also hated everything about him.

Yamishi, of course, had already been working on finding out R's name for the past few months, however, hadn't made much progress since R kept it such a secret. Yamishi already knew that R was trained by the same people who trained L and the others, but due to the fact that R had hardly any files, it was basically impossible to move forward.
