Shizuo was smoking silently while studying his surroundings. He should be accompanying Tom while talking with a client but the atmosphere inside the restaurant makes him sick, thankfully the street outside is not crowded. He first looked at a boy buying an ice cream then to a bunch of wanna-be gangs, until his eyes landed on the nearby overpass. A black fur jacket caught his eyes and his wonderful mood turned sour.

"Izaya" he growled spitefully and ran towards the overpass, the people around him frantically moved away from his path. He was about to rush up the stairs when a girl with a messy black hair started skipping down the stairs. Not wanting to disturb the girl from his violent action, he stepped aside. The blond glanced towards the direction of Izaya and gave him a glare, the troll smirked at him in return. Shizuo looked back at the girl, now infront and smiling at him.

"Ah, you're the same girl Izaya is talking to the other day" He remembered. "I suggest you keep your distance from him"

Shizuo started to walk up when he heard the girl sigh he then looked back. "How cruel, but it's better this way" She whispered before walking away.

He watched the girl walk away; his thoughts about killing Izaya disappeared. He knows that girl and he's sure of it. Shizuo was about to walk away when a voice behind him made his foul mood come back.

"Oh, so love at first sight applies to you, Shizu-chan"

"IZAYA!" Instead of getting pissed of what the flea said, the thing that annoyed him is his voice. Pushing his thoughts away about the nostalgic girl, he continued with his goal: murder Orihara Izaya.

Izaya continuously typed in a laptop he borrowed from Yagiri Namie, his secretary. It's been 5 hours since he was able to escape from Shizuo, but their encounter made him glad for the first time; however the confirmation of facts can be proved later. The busy man studied the screen for a few seconds before continue typing. Namie watched him, puzzled why Izaya would borrow her laptop when he has a desktop and a laptop beside him.

"Found you" Izaya smiled at the screen.

"What ?" his secretary sitting on the couch asked.

"An email sent by Mairu Kira to SK," Izaya paused and raised a brow "sent from Italy"

"What do you want from an email?"

"Information as usual" Izaya clicked the mail and seconds later, his smile turned to a frown. "Namie-san, I suggest you buy a new laptop"

"Huh?" Namie raised a brow at the man's sudden suggestion.

"Some viruses and a worm will be installed whenever the email is opened by an outsider" he said flatly "I don't call this careless" he added as he watch the files in the screen disappear one by one.

"Virus? Worm?" the woman blinked at the disappointed man, his statement slowly sinking in "WHAT?!"

"Yes, I opened the mail. At least I have the main information" Izaya turned his chair and looked outside, Namie on the other hand desperately trying to save her files from being deleted. In the end, she failed and the laptop system is completely destroyed.

"You knew didn't you?" She snarled "That's why you used my laptop!"

"I didn't, but I did suspect. There's no reason for you to get angry, I assume you have a backup file"

"I do"

"See, no harm done" Izaya smiled while Namie didn't argue, she really hate the man.

"So what is that important information tou're talking about?" She asked to change the topic and for her to calm down.

"Do you know Kirigaya Kenji?" Izaya answered, Namie crossed her arms ready to listen. She knew that's the answer to her question.

"No"

"He's a normal 42 yrs old citizen in Kanagawa" He started "12 years ago he and his wife were murdered in their home while their only daughter was kidnapped"

"How were you able to know this case?"

"The records of this crime was stolen by an anonymous thief but an acquaintance of mine had a copy"

"So how does this case relevant to my question?" Namie asked impatiently.

"The case was left unsolved of course" The troll smirked, his next statement will surely answer her question "Also their daughter, Kirigaya Seven was never found, but 12 years ago, 2 months after her disappearance, a Kishitani Nana appeared here in Ikebukuro"

NOTE: After rereading the previous chapter, it is only the time I remembered that the name 'Mairu' is also the name of Izaya's younger sibling. I apologize for forgetting and I hope this won't create a confusion. *bows*
