Daichi and the kids finished preparing the food, and now they are happily eating at the round table.
The kids are full of enthusiasm, telling him random stuff about school. He is happily talking to them. After dinner was served and the kids were now in their bedrooms, he decided to take a shower while Dana and Mike cleaned the kitchen.
Ah... so nice to have a big family. Dana is still young at 35, so another family member could be welcome in the near future.
He wished for a big and lively family of his own. But how would that happen? He sighed.
After taking a shower, he wore an all-black leather outfit and gloves.
"Are you leaving so soon?" Dana asked.
"Yes, big sis... there is an important meeting I have to attend."
Dana wandered her eyes at him, up and down. Yes, his outfit is not for formal business attire. But Dana understood where exactly he was headed, which is the main building of a Mafia group he leads in this City.
"You take care, okay?"
"Thank you, big sis…" he said, then turned to Mike. "Here's the key to the Rover, brother-in-law Mike," Daichi throws the key, and Mike catches it.
"Okay! Thanks, brother-in-law!"
"Why?" Dana asked her husband.
"Of course, that event is a star-studded night. My wife deserves the best entrance! So I borrowed it from Daichi."
"I am giving it."
"What!?" the couple was shocked.
Daichi steps closer to Dana and holds her on the shoulder. "It is my advance birthday gift for you, big sis. That would be a couple of months from now, but it looks like I will be on an island by that time, so I could not celebrate your birthday."
Dana suddenly hugs him. "Thank you. This is too much."
"What are you talking about? You and Mike stood up like a parent to me. And we are family. It's for the kids as well."
The couple was overwhelmed as they had been dreaming of getting a new family car for the kids to have better transport, sending and picking them up from school.
"The kids will be happy to know tomorrow."
"Hum..." he nodded. "Am leaving now, big sis, brother-in-law," he nodded at Mike.
"Take care, Daichi, and thank you."

Daichi went to the locked garage and opened the door to take out his MV Agusta bike. He wore his helmet and started the motorcycle. After warming it, the bike slowly runs until it reaches the main road and blends into the traffic.
When he gets the opportunity, Daichi overtakes, speeds up his bike, and arrives at his destination in less than ten minutes.
The front gate opened, and the men watching the outer building greeted him immediately. He nods, then past them.
He parks his bike and takes off his helmet. He then rushes inside.
"Good evening, boss!" greeted the several men who stood at the door.
"Get lost. No need for formality." Daichi shoos them, gesturing his hand to stop it.
When it comes to his gang, he hangs out with them casually, completely opposite his Security Team from the Empire Dragon Hotel. After he shoots them, they all scatter around and continue their actions before he arrives.
"Boss, the sparrows just landed," Informed a man in his mid 30's and bowed to him.
"That's great, Dale." He followed him to the second floor of this building.
Dale Earnhardt is the boss of this group and works under him. He is just one of many gangs kneeling before him, and this building serves as the main office of his entire gang.
Dale opens the door, and he sees five foreign men scattered around the room occupying themselves.
"Hey, man!" Kurt stood up from the floor and walked towards him. "Long time no see."
"Yeah." Daichi raised his knuckle to meet Kurt's.
He glances at Bryan, and he gives him a salute. The other men nodded. He counted them, and one was missing.
"You knew better about her," James chuckled.
"She does her habit," Lainey chimed in.
"Yeah," he nodded to agree. He stepped closer to Dylan, who was now busy assembling his long-range sniper rifle.
"Is this the latest one?" he asked.
"Yeah." Dylan passed the gun.
He tried the scope, and the optical did not disappoint him.
"A total night vision from miles away," Dylan proudly stated.
"Hmm..." he handed back the rifle to Dylan.
"Great."The rest of the men are also busy preparing their high-powered, long-range sniper rifles. They are the private Hitman of the Crow Corporation, which is, only the Chairman and the President know about them.
And since Shun one day showed up on their doorstep after two years they hadn't heard of him, the four of them learned about this private Hitman after they became the King's Men.
The other day, he phoned them for one atop mission and to secure the Bella Collection Fashion Show where known people from High Society and government officials will be. Not to mention the Ambassador's presence and guests all over the world.
Yes, he knew very well because he worked as a Hitman once. He was trained for a year. No. He did not kill someone but just to protect certain people from a distance as the Eyes.
"Alright. I'll try to catch the Red Sparrow. My gang will help you with anything you need."
"Good luck!" the five of them said and gave him a thumbs up.
He chuckled. After a few words, he left the building and roamed the city for half an hour.
He stopped in one of his gangs who ran his bars and entered the establishment.
"Usual order," he told the bartender.
After his two glasses, the woman who sat beside him laughed. "A real man should not take ladies' drinks," the woman teases him.
He let out a sexy laugh and replied, "If I let myself get drunk, how could I escort you home safely?"
The woman smiled and gave him seductive gazes.

Daichi sat up from his bed. He reached out his back, and he could touch a few lines of scratches.
He glanced at his side, and it was empty. The woman wasn't there anymore.
