Rooftop Standoff – Shadow's Stream

Shadow's eyes drifted to the corporate building that was about to be infiltrated.

『Hrmm…』

Nothing about it stood out at first glance──just another faceless glass and steel structure in the city. But the way these men moved, the weight of their cases, the sheer precision… something gnawed at his instincts.

『I've seen this kind of operation before.』

He exhaled slowly.

『This isn't a simple break-in.』

Something was about to go down.

And judging by the gear they were packing, it was big.

Shadow stepped forward to close the distance between himself and the rooftop's edge. His black boots barely made a sound against the concrete as his entire being was now focused on the tactical unit below.

He peered down, his masked gaze locked onto the thieves as they moved with trained smoothness.

Then—like clockwork—two figures flanked him.
