In one corner of the Tokyo city, there was an old warehouse. Abandoned for years. Not much people were around. Not even any resident close to it. It's walls became rusty and it's iron doors got it's red shade. But during the night times, it was being used by a crime organization.

It's the same crime organization that released the narcotics in the market and many teenagers like Shinichi became a victim of this.

The day was sunny. Sun's strong light pierced through little holes of the warehouse's roof and landed on the ground. A lot of men were present inside, in a circle.

"Boss, we have all the packages. What should we do now?" one of them asked.

A man came forward, "We wait till next day and begin our operation at half past 30." he was their boss.

Suddenly, two men came rushing from the upstairs, "Boss! We got ourselves a trouble!"

"What is it?" their boss asked.

"It…it's the police!" one of the two men said, huffing and panting.

"What the…the police? Everyone, get in the cars!" the boss ordered.

The circle got divided. People running in each direction.

"Hey! Atleast someone grab the boxes!" the boss man shouted.

"We don't have time! They are coming closer!' a shout from the crowd came.

"AHH DAMN IT!" the boss grabbed one of the man by his collar who was running past him, "The boxes are more valuable than your pathetic lives! If we lose them, we are good as dead!" he shouted at that man.

Scared of the boss man, they started grabbing some of the boxes but couldn't take all of them as the police vans were coming near.

They started their cars and fled the warehouse. Multiple police cars were chasing them, playing their siren. The red-blue lights flashed across the streets.

In one of the cars was the boss. He looked behind from the side view mirror as the driver drove past their other cars.

"Darn it! We are following their orders. Then why…"

Thung

A gun shot. The police were shooting from behind. Some shots missed and hit the road.

The boss held his phone, "Listen, we will split up! Divide into groups of 2 and go to your closest route," he ordered.

A 4 way road came. The gang's cars divided and went into two roads. On the other hand, the police vehicles also had to divide themselves. In one of the cars was the mission's leading officer. He put his walkie talkie on, "All troups divide into three grou…"

"Absolutely no sir!" a voice came from the car's own transmitter.

"What was that?"

"The gang's leader is in the front car. Send two units to the two roads and the rest behind that car." sounds came from the transmitter.

"Are you stupid? Tell me how do you know that their leader is in that car? And majority units behind that one car?"

"I can't explain now! But you have to trust me in this sir!" the line made the officer's hearing stun for a moment. As if…the world became silent for a moment. Even though he was against the idea, he ordered as the other officer said.

Meanwhile in the gang's car, the boss was typing a number in a phone. The phone looked different than the usually used models.

"He…hello! We are being chased by police vans!" he paused for a moment and listened to the reply form the other side, "What do you mean? We followed all of your orders! Now send some kind of backup!

Some different reply came from the other side, "So you deny huh? Then your packages can go to hell!"

Then he cut the call and told the driver to drive faster. After a few minutes, while passing one point of the road, a gap appeared on it. That gap worked like a flat door on the road. It slid and got inside, revealing an underground passage. From that passage, several black cars came out. The police had to stop their cars since the black cars were blocking their paths.

The door of one of the police cars opened and an officer came out, "Hey who are you people?" he shouted.

No response came. Then without giving a sign, a man in black suit got out from one of the cars and shot that police officer. The officer fell down on the ground, blood slowly painting the road red.

"Everybody take cover!" a police officer from a car said.

And immediately, multiple black suits got out of the cars and started shooting at the cars. Loud barrage of bang bang noise filled the atmosphere. The one who told to take cover got down of his seat.

He removed his cap and glasses. It was Haruto. Sweat ran down his neck as he was so tensed on what to do.

"A hidden passage? It has to be the organization! Why on earth is the organization saving this criminal gang?""

Then memories of the past hit him. Those black suited men…somewhere he had seen them. At some point in his life. But he couldn't recall when and at what occasion.
