"I thought so too but it turned out, this time, it is different," he said
He paced to a fish tank nearby and fed his fish.
"There was an incident at one of their branches in southern Japan, Kyushu. There was a huge fire. It was rumored the branch was attacked."
"A Kuroi branch attacked? Who would have the guts to do that?" I remarked and turned to Kelly
"Did we hear about this?"
Kelly strained as she tried to recollect and nodded after a long pause.
"We have news of a fire at a shrine but I did not think much about it."
Sian nodded
"It turned out that after that incident, there was some disturbances at Kuroi, and there were a series
of events that culminated in that meeting in Kansai."
"Do you have details about that meeting?"
Sian hesitated
“If you would like, out of favor, I can find out more for you.”
“I am happy to pay for those services."
Sian laughed and waved his hand
