As Kyuji is summoned to the Kougami Foundation where Kougami himself is waiting for him a little "side trip" will be shown as Bourbon is going to have some "screen time" and his "assigned group" within the Black Organization is going to make its debut, and comes into "contact" with someone unexpected.
At Kiyoto Maii's office, the disguised Bourbon approaches Maki and asked permission to take a leave for an hour as he wanted to meet a friend who is waiting for him near the Kougami Biotech Laboratories, which Maki, who is in charge of the building assigned to him by Kougami, accepted the request and Bourbon bowed while taking his leave. Maki just stared at him as Bourbon leaves though he sent a Taka and Batta Candroids to follow him as he wanted to see something from the Black Organization member without giving himself away.
"You think I don't know what you're up to, huh? But…I won't do anything to you…yet. If you give me a good "ending"…I'll consider leaving you alone for now…"

107:Akai Medaru to Uragiri to Honō no Konbo part 2
Outside the Kougami Biotech Laboratories, at the parking lot, Bourbon took out his cellphone while opening the driver's door as he is talking to someone and did not notice the Batta Candroid managing to sneak inside the car as Bourbon's back was turn while speaking to someone, and there the conversation is heard and recorded, which the BO member boarded his car and heads off towards a nearby place while giving the caller some instructions before canceling the connection.
"Yes…it's me…you have arrived…? Good. Wait for me there…"
-x-
About 20 minutes later, Bourbon, still wearing his disguise as a Kougami Foundation employee, arrived at the meeting place, where the scene shows that the meeting place is actually an abandoned junkshop, and there several "small fries" dressed in black hats and trench coats are waiting, right outside a van. Bourbon got off the car and smiled that things went smoothly without trouble, but is unaware that Maki is watching him from the "shadows".
As the Batta Candroid sneaked out and positions itself on a nearby hiding place to continue recording the footage, Bourbon opened the compartment of his cart where several Candroids are stored, in which he secretly smuggled them out from the Ride Vendors when no one is looking, and had the henchmen load them inside the van, taking care not to accidentally activate them. By then two men emerged from the van, and are revealed that they are Bourbon's "subordinates" under the group that "Anokata" assigning them to. They are identified as Scotch and Tennessee, who, along with Bourbon as their team leader, are known as "Whiskey".
"Sir…"
"Sir Bourbon…"
"Ah…Tennessee and Scotch…"
"We arrived after some ten minutes ago…"
"Good…now open the compartment…"
"Done, sir…"
"Careful…make sure you don't press anything…once they are accidentally activated, it'll send a signal from the Kougami Foundation and might track us to the Black Organization HQ…"
"All are loaded…"
"Good…good…"
With all of the stolen Candroids loaded inside the van, Bourbon is pleased with things going well, with more of the Candroids being sent to the BO HQ and had the signal connecting them to the Kougami Foundation's link severed, the BO now has a seemingly unlimited "assassins" in conjunction with the BO henchmen, that would help them in their operations and now they are stepping ahead with their assassination assignments, though he told the BO about the problem with Birth, in which "Anokata" assigns him and Vermouth in trying to finds a way to get to the blueprints of the Birth System and brought them to him so as to duplicate and mass-produce them before selling them to potential customers.
As Bourbon is about to leave, he spotted an approaching Akira Date, and knowing who he is, thanks to his spying and from Vermouth's info, he instructs Scotch and Tennessee to leave casually while ordering the henchmen to attack him, as Bourbon intended to see how Birth can fare well against normal humans. As the van casually leaves the scene, the henchmen went into actions and went straight for Akira, who saw them come out of the junk shop and hid away at a corner while putting on the birth Driver, sensing that they are after him.
"Huh? "Men In Black"…? Who are you and what do you want?"
"Nothing personal…"
"We were ordered to beat you up…"
"So prepared to be reduced to a bloody pulp…"
"Any last words…?"
"He's putting on a large belt!"
"I don't know who you are…but if you're going to ransack me…you chose the wrong victim to mess with…"
-x-
At his office, Maki smirked seeing that Bourbon is testing the Birth System against normal persons, though he seem to like the idea of seeing "an end" to normal opponents and has no qualms in seeing the "small fries" die as long as he gets to see a "minor ending" and watches the footage from the Batta Candroids as he sees Akira activating the Birth Driver and assumes the armored form of Birth.
"Well…even though it's a minor one…I wouldn't mind see this kind of "ending"…and it's a good thing to see how the Birth System be up against opponents who are not Yummy…"
-x-
Back at the junk shop, Birth is taking on the Black Organization henchmen as they fire away with their high-powered weapons, but to their surprises, their bullets only dented and fell on the ground yet it didn't deter them from stopping him, though it is clear that they are outmatched, while Bourbon watches from behind, observing how Birth moves and how he fights after seeing Akira activating the Birth Driver via a single Cell Medal.
"So that's how the "Birth System" is activated…and it takes a Cell medal to initiate its activation…"
As the henchmen continued firing, Birth decided to end the fight quickly before a victim of a stray bullet may claim a life and brought out a Cell Medal, inserting it and turning the Grap Accelerator again, which allow Birth to summon a weapon, which seconds later, the voice input of the Birth Driver spoke and announces the weapon summoned.
Birth Driver: "CRANE ARM…"
Birth's right forearm suddenly gets covered in an energy projection and several metallic components appeared and materialize, forming around the arm, creating a gauntlet-like weapon, which shows a powerful winch attachment that is contained in the Receptacle Orb on Birth's right arm up to his right shoulder. This is the Crane Arm weapon and is one of Birth's many arsenals.
"Hey!"
"Where did that come from?"
"What is he?"
"Never mind! Keep shooting him!"
"Right! We show no fear to anyone!"
"Kill him!"
"Poor you…I guess I'll have to wrap things up…"
The Crane Arm is designed with the winch allows him to scale buildings as well as collecting any leftover Cell Medals with one sweep, it has also other uses, such as it can be used as a whip to damage opponents from afar. Birth demonstrated this as he does a punching gesture and the winch extended and went around the henchmen, tying them around with its cord in one sweep motion and the gunmen are secured.
"What…?"
"Hey!"
"Let us go!"
"No fair!"
"I'll kill you!"
"Help!"
Birth then approaches them and is intending to see their faces and to ask them who they are and why they attack him, unaware of what is coming up next.
"Okay…if you want to live…then you better start talking…who are you and why did you attack me?"
Bourbon, then took out what appeared to be a remote control device and presses a button, which causes the captured henchmen to explode, with Birth caught in the blast, which is revealed that the henchmen unknowingly had powerful explosives attached to their hats and trench coats, with a mixture of dangerous chemicals and components of C4 explosives. Bourbon watches on as the smoke cleared, and saw Birth unscathed yet it was nothing to be upset about.
"Hmm…that weapon is indeed powerful…I'd better tell Vermouth about this and see how we could get our hands on that "Birth System"…and see if there are any blue prints we can copy or steal…this would definitely impress "Anokata"…an army of "Birth soldiers" of the Black Organization…"
As Birth checked the remains of the henchmen, Bourbon sneaked his way back to the Kougami Biotech Laboratories noting that the Birth System is something he wanted to show to "Anokata" after recording everything in secret, and if given the chance, he might do something to get his hands on that weapon and study it, and to mass-produce it if possible.
Seeing that there is nothing he can do, Birth deactivated the Birth Driver and Akira Toudou leaves the scene before police came, and he didn't want to get in any trouble let alone questioned at how he survived a suicide explosion from the BO henchmen belonging to Bourbon's group.
"Geez…all this attack for nothing…a bunch of suicidal goons…better go or else I'll be suspected of being a bomber…"
-x-
The scene later shifts to the Kougami Foundation where Erika and Kyuji arrived at Kougami's office, where Kousei Kougami is waiting for them smiling as usual, while at the same time seeing Kyuji coming inside his office with Erika informing the president that she has brought in the vagabond. The eccentric businessman feels that something good is about to take place with a simple conversation.
"Mr. President…I have brought Kyuji Hino as you requested…"
"Ah, Good day, Mr. Kougami…"
"Ah…good work, Erika…good work…"
"Okay, sir…I'll start do my work…"
"Very well…Hino...I must say…you have impressed me…taking out two Greed at in one blow…"
"Ah…"
"Well done…you and Ankh have done well…I thank you for the hard work…here is my token of appreciation…"
"Ah…your welcome…huh?"
Thanking Kyuji and Ankh for the "hard work" Kougami offered him a reward, showing him a chest-full of Cell Medals, telling him this is a "one-time" reward, but then he gives the vagabond a surprise when he gives him a red Core Medal, which belonged to Ankh, with an engraved symbol of a condor. This is revealed to be the Condor Medal, one of Ankh's nine Core Medals, which he said that he brought it with him after his trip from Europe.
"…then…this Core Medal…and the Lion Medal that Gotoh gave me a few months ago…they are in your hands…?"
"Well…I do not feel like telling you everything yet…"
"…"
"However…I will tell you this: You can't relax just yet just because two of the Greed have fallen…for they can evolve using desire! Yes…desire…it can be both good…and bad…splendid…SPLENDED INDEED!"
"Well…"
"You saw it…didn't you…? When a Greed took more than the total limit of his Core Medals…it evolves…but what happened recently is a bad side effect…but the remaining Greed might use that as a fact to carefully absorb the Core Medals of their fallen Greed…and evolve in a safer way…and to combat that…you too must evolve…O's need a stronger, new power."
Kougami told Kyuji that Ankh will be needing the Condor Medal's power, not only to strengthen the bird-type Greed's power, but to also effectively aid O's. While bluntly telling him that he as many trump cars up his sleeve, he also gave importance that it is necessary to have some "extra power" to take down the remaining Greed – Uva and Kazari.
However, after a minute of thinking, Kyuji gave back the Condor Medal and said he'll only take the chest, stating that now is not the right time to use the Core Medal, which perplexed Kougami, in which Erika is able to clarify what Kyuji meant while dictating Shinichi Kudo's current state.
"Sorry, but…I'll take the chest…you hold on to that Core Medal…"
"Eh? What's wrong…?"
"This may not be the right time…if Ankh were to regain his Greed body…he might abandon Kudo's body…and may put the detective in danger…"
"Hmm…Kudo…Kudo…Kudo… hmm…I seem to recall him… Erika…do you have information on this Kudo?"
Immediately, Erika opened her laptop and downloaded the report and spoke to Kougami to answer his question.
"Yes, sir…His name is Shinichi Kudo…18 years old…a high school student…said to be on an undercover investigation…but recently resurfaced but went missing after the first Yummy attack…"
"For now, Mr. Kougami…Ankh is the only one who can keep Kudo safe…and alive…if he leaves Kudo's body…he won't last beyond 10 minutes…and he would die…not only that…he is said to be being hunted by a mysterious group of criminals…"
"An organization…Erika…you know…?"
"Yes, sir… the organization in question…is called the Black Organization… a secret syndicate that commits a number of crimes for various reasons which range from blackmail to robberies to assassinations. The members of the organization are given code names based on alcoholic beverages…but so far…I do not know how many of their members are or their names…"
"It's alright, Erika…it's enough…"
"If you say so, sir…"
After being told about Shinichi Kudo's situation, about the Black Organization going after the comatose detective, and about the possibility of Ankh abandoning Shinichi's body once he regained his Greed body, Kyuji gave Kougami the Condor Medal and took the chest, bowed to him and left immediately. Kougami just watched yet he is not done, sensing that something SPLENDID is about to happen and took out his cellphone and contacted Akira Toudou, informing him to come to the Kougami Foundation so as to give him instructions.
"Hello…Akira…"
"Mr. Kougami…?"
"Report to me at once…I have something to give you…"
"Very well…I'll be there in…"

Hope you like this chapter…with Bourbon and his group introduced, but it seems that Maki is aware about Bourbon though he chose not to do anything, which is fine with him, though it is unclear if he is aware about Vermouth being in Kougami's employ as well…
Another surprise…Kougami back from Europe…and has brought a souvenir…another of Ankh's Core Medals, though Kyuji forego giving it to Ankh knowing the implications should THAT scenario happens…
Preview:
The trouble is about to commence…with several reasons:
1) Heiji arrives and meets up with Kyuji and gang;
2) Kazuha goes into a fit again;
3) O's go into action, but will he be able to calm her down?
4) And the reasons for Kazuha's actions will finally be revealed.
