January 11, 1986.

At that time, Naoki is only 4 years old, his family is alive. At that time, he was very mature as a child and shy. That day was his birthday, also he doesn't know that this would be the last day to see his family alive, he is very happy, but he does not show his joy, he smiles at his parents and younger brother enjoying his birthday party. His father has gone somewhere, Shinatsu Muneyoshi (Naoki's mother), is talking with him about trivial things, She, Naoki and Eita (his younger brother), are currently alone. 1 hour later Shion came back.

Shion: I'm sorry Naoki but dad had some business to take care of.

Naoki: I'm not angry, they must have been important matters.

Shinatsu: It'll be time for you go to bed soon... it's getting late.

Naoki and Eita went to sleep. Naoki even though it was a happy day for him, he had a premonition of the upcoming tragedy. He downplayed this feeling and fell asleep.

In the morning, when Naoki got up, it was very quiet, he felt like everyone had gone somewhere, he went at first to Eita's room. Eita was lying stiffly in his craddle. Naoki tried to wake him up, but Eita showed no sign of life. Naoki was terrified, he at first haven't thought that Eiro died, he went to his parent's room but no one was there.

He now was going down to the stairs, looking for his parents, when he entered the dining room he saw a gruesome sight – His mother was lying in a pool of her blond, she was dead.

Naoki screamed, and started crying, he cried for 2 hours. Then he just sat on the stairs and he stared blankly at the floor.

Three hours later Kiichisaburo Muneyoshi – Naoki's uncle (older brother of his father) came to Naoki. He looked coldly at him.

Kiichisaburo: You'll come with me kid.

Naoki: What for? I would like to stay here...

Kiichisaburo he walked around the house, he returned to Naoki, the horrible sights made no impression on him. He is standing next to Naoki and he crosses his arms.

Kiichisaburo: Where is Shion?

Naoki: I-I don't know…

Kiichisaburo says nothing in response, and he is just calling the Police, after some time the Police finally came.

Keitaro Matsuda ,after the Police force searched the house, approaches Kiichisaburo and Naoki.

Keitaro: I'm very sorry... The kid was lucky to survive at all, the murderer even strangled his brother. Also I have one question for you
Where is your brother?

Kiichisaburo: I talked to him last night, he told me that he was in danger and was supposed to leave Yomiyama today. Most likely he was kidnapped and killed.

Keitaro: Uh, I see. I can guess who it is. They probably wanted revenge for the murders of the 1970s. I find it hard to believe that the rivalry between your clans continues into modern times. I will tell you privately that the perpetrator will probably not be caught. It will probably be like in most situations like this, someone else involved in another murder will be blamed for this… however, I cannot rule out the possibility that your brother committed this crime. Until we find his body, then it will be difficult to blame it on someone or cover it up.

Kiichisaburo: I doubt he's still alive

Keitaro: I feel sorry for the kid, I have a daughter not much older than him.

Kiichisaburo: He'll be fine... he'll be under my care.

Despite Kiichisaburo's declaration of adopting Naoki, Shinatsu's brother and husband of Yukiyo, who had just had a miscarriage, also wanted custody of him.

However, Yukiyo bought baby Mei from her sister, and the topic of Naoki's potential adoption by the Misaki family.

After a month, Kiichisaburo and Naoki were going to the airport.

Naoki: Where are we going uncle?

Kiichisaburo: To the Airport, you will live with me in Switzerland from tomorrow.

Naoki: I'd rather stay here...

Kiichisaburo: You have no choice... besides, don't count on any love or warmth from me... you are just my stupid brother's son. You will meet Roxanne, you will not live with me for now.

Naoki: Who is Roxanne?

Kiichisaburo: I'm having some problems, so you're going to live in an orphanage for a few years, Roxanne runs this orphanage.

Naoki: Why couldn't I stay here? even in an orphanage?

Kiichisaburo: Shut up for now, I'm driving.

Naoki lowered his head, sinking into sadness and despair over the loss of his loved ones and the prospect of spending the next few years in an orphanage.

After reaching the airport, Naoki and Kiichisaburo boarded a plane and flew to Geneva. Some time later Naoki and Kiichisaburo entered the orphanage. They encountered dr. Roxanne Leroux - the manager of the orphanage.

Roxanne: Hello Kiichisaburo... that kid with you must be Naoki.
Roxanne smiled maliciously. She is a tall woman in her 30-ties, she has blonde hair and wears glasses, she usually wear medical gown.

Kiichisaburo: Yeah take care of him.

Kiichisaburo left.

Roxanne leaned over Naoki.

Roxanne: Hello young gentleman, do you speak French, English or German? I can't speak Japanese very well. And we have to communicate somehow, right?
She said it in a friendly tone, hiding her terrifying intentions towards Naoki.

Naoki (in english): Little

Roxanne took Naoki's hand, and took him to his room, apart from his bed, food and toilet there were only mirrors.

Roxanne: During this time you should learn at least the basics. (She gave him textbooks to learn French, German and English in Japanese.)

Naoki was locked in this room for a month now, he has food and he has the opportunity to take care of hygiene, but he is isolated from the world, He constantly sees his reflection in the mirrors that take up the entire room. Slowly his psyche begins to break down, he begins to hallucinate and hear voices.

Naoki: Why did I have to survive...?

Naoki's voices: Because you are the chosen one..., Your life is worth more..., That's right, you should die...

Over the course of several months, his voices and hallucinations began to become more and more disturbing.
He sees the sight of dead family members all the time and he has stopped sleeping.

Shinatsu's voice (as Naoki's hallucination): Why did you do that! It's only your fault!
Naoki started screaming and crying, he started having suicidal thoughts. After the hallucinations stopped, he took the fork he had in his room. I probably have to do this... My life is a nightmare... no one loves me, I am completely useless... no one needs me.

Naoki's voices: Don't you want to take revenge on Kiichisaburo? Think about it... if he sent you here, he's probably responsible for the death of your parents and brother.

Naoki: Why would he do that? But really, why was I sent here by him...

Naoki's voices: That's right, you connected the dots, but in this state you won't take revenge on Kiichisaburo.

Naoki: Then what should I do?

Naoki's voices: Forget about your old life... about your brother and mother, it only slows you down, just like emotions, without remorse, sadness, joy, and fear.

After spending half a year in complete isolation from the outside world, Naoki was released, he is changed, he seems to have no human feelings. Roxanne cames to him.

Roxanne: It's time to test you!
She gave Naoki a simple needle, and ordered to kill other boy from this orphanage. Naoki fullfilled the order without asking.

Naoki: Don't think that I will obey your orders, I am not here of my own free will. I heard the shots, and I know what happened to those who refused.

Roxane laughed.

Roxanne: Correct, we don't need faulty objects here.

Naoki: I will follow your orders only to survive, nothing more than that.

Roxanne: I like that, few people retain their own will, after what you just were through.

For 5 year Naoki was living in this facility, he is one of the best ''objects'' in this facility. His only weakness is his low physical strength, but he is precise.

Kiichisaburo and Roxanne, met after a long time.

Kiichisaburo: I have something to ask you

Roxanne: Hmmm?

Kiichisaburo: Give me Naoki back..

Roxanne laughed.

Roxanne: My best subject? Besides, you sold it to me for a million francs.

Kiichisaburo: I have five milion francs, Can I take him back?

Roxanne: I still have to experiment with it, and 5 million francs is ridiculous compared to what the secret services can offer me for him. Besides, it's very interesting how he doesn't feel any physical pain... He definitely does, but he hides it... it's so exciting~, And that's probably the biggest reason why I won't give him to you.

Kiichisaburo looked directly into Roxanne's eyes, those money from secret services ,are probably not just for you, my 5 million francs are just for you, think about it. I'll wait until tomorrow to respond. Her is my number.

Roxanne felt sleepy, and after that everyone dispersed.

The next day, Roxanne looked like she was under the influence of drugs.

Roxanne: Follow me Mr. Muneyoshi...

Kiichisaburo followed dr. Leroux and she handed over Naoki to him.
An hour later, Kiichisaburo and Naoki were heading to Rotterdam.

However, instead of taking the faster route from Geneva to Rotterdam via France and Belgium. Kiichisaburo was traveling through Germany.

Naoki: Can you explain to me why we don't take the shorter route?

Kiichisaburo: My daughter Elisa will live with us, she is your age.

Naoki: Can you explain to me why I was released from this facility?

Kiichisaburo: For now, shut your mouth. You are annoying me.

Naoki: Likewise

Naoki wondered about the meaning of the word "home".

He lived half his life in Yomiyama and half in Geneva. He lived with his parents in an orphanage, and now he will live with Kiichisaburo and Elisa. He realized that there was no place like home for him. People and places of residence change, there is no place he misses.
Kiichisaburo and Naoki reached Mannheim, there they waited for Elisa, who was to board with Naoki and Kiichisaburo.
Elisa noticed Naoki.

Elisa: My name is Elisa Richter, nice to meet you.

Naoki: Remained silent.

Kiichisaburo: Elisa, get in the car.

Elisa got in the car just like her father told her. After a long journey they reached Rotterdam, Elisa Naoki and Kiichisaburo moved in together. After a month, Kiichisaburo called Naoki for a private conversation.

Kiichisaburo: Don't think I'm going to let you sleep and eat here for free.

Naoki: Do you expect a 10-year-old child to go to work?

Kiichisaburo: We both know what you were taught in that orphanage.
I have an order for you, you will kill a certain prosecutor and his entire family. Apparently you have no inhibitions about killing women and children. Do you?

Naoki: Do you want me to be your tool Kiichisaburo?

Kiichisaburo: In return, you will get a house, food and I will also pay for your studies in the future.

After much thought, Naoki agreed to it.

Disguised as a poor child, he begged outside the prosecutor's house, his wife gave him something to eat, Naoki took the opportunity and killed her, the prosecutor and his children.

After finishing the job, he returned home.

The next day, hearing about Naoki's success, Kiichisaburo smiled, because it meant that he could continue his criminal activities, which he carried out in Geneva and Germany.
