One night, it passed in a flash.
Chen Ran woke up early.
The best time of day is in the morning.
Waking up early brings a refreshed spirit.
After Chen Ran's transmigration, he specifically persisted for two days.
And... it became a habit.
The biological clock is truly powerful.
He walked to the living room.
Kagami also rubbed his sleepy eyes and walked out of the room.
Yawning repeatedly, he said, "Morning, little brother."
They had introduced themselves last night, but Kagami still preferred to call Chen Ran "little brother."
"Morning, Kagami."
Chen Ran replied with a smile.
Compared to Chen Ran's energetic state, Kagami had clearly set an alarm and struggled immensely to get up.
Chen Ran truly experienced this during his 996 work life in his previous life.

"Um... little brother, I'm going to be late for my part-time job at the Western restaurant, so I'm leaving now. If you need anything, you can find me at the restaurant," Kagami said.
The Western restaurant named Salle.
Like Ichiraku Ramen in Konoha Village.
It is a place that runs through the entire storyline.
The shop is not big.
But it is undoubtedly a place where luck converges.
Chen Ran knew its approximate location.
"Okay, alright."
Kagami left in a hurry.
Chen Ran also left shortly after.
Not far away.
A black car stopped beside Chen Ran.
The car window slowly rolled down.
It was a middle-aged man who looked very serious.
Kagami... Tsurugi!
The Director of the Metropolitan Police Department.
If one paid more attention to the news, they would find that this face frequently appeared in newspapers and on television.
Upon seeing him, Chen Ran's lips curled up slightly.
Due to some reasons, father and son had a falling out.
Kagami left home.
Although there seemed to be no interaction.
But as a father, his love for his son was not mixed with any pretense.
Kagami Tsurugi had been paying attention to Kagami.
And so.
He had only met Kagami last night, and today he came knocking.
But this was also what Chen Ran expected.
He was thinking of contacting ZECT.
Rather than finding the Hugor, Kagami Tsurugi was better.
He was, after all, human.
"Let's talk?"
"I am the new father."
Chen Ran nodded.
"Get in the car."
......
A secluded coffee shop.
Located on a boat by the sea, on the outskirts of the city.
The salty sea breeze blew.
If one wanted to enjoy tranquility, this place was definitely a good choice.
"What would you like to drink?"
Kagami Tsurugi asked.
"A latte is fine."
"Okay, my usual. Go order," Kagami Tsurugi instructed the man beside him.
He was clearly Kagami Tsurugi's bodyguard.
He also doubled as a driver.
"Allow me to introduce myself, I am Kagami Tsurugi."
He said with a smile.
"Chen Ran."
Kagami Tsurugi nodded.
Then he began to get down to business.
"The crimson knight, that was you, wasn't it?"
As he spoke, he took out a photograph.
It was clearly a surveillance printout.
It was a pitch-black night scene.
The picture quality was not very good.
Chen Ran recognized it instantly as the fight from last night when he saved Kagami.
He was somewhat surprised; he hadn't expected there to be surveillance in such a secluded alley.
"It was me."
As if sensing the surprise in Chen Ran's eyes, Kagami Tsurugi chuckled and said, "A few days ago, there were always incidents of hooligans harassing good women in that alley. The police received too many complaints, so they installed surveillance. I didn't expect it to be so coincidental."
"I haven't thanked you for saving Shin."
Chen Ran shrugged.
"It was a small matter."
"And... I also have my own agenda."
"Oh?"
"I've seen the unit that fights the Worms. Kagami said it's called ZECT, right?"
Kagami Tsurugi was startled.
He hadn't expected Shin to have revealed even this much.
Chen Ran didn't dwell on this issue and continued, "I wanted to ask, do you have any temporary positions over there?"
"You mean like the bounty hunters such as Sasword."
Kagami Tsurugi was a smart man; hearing the term "temporary positions," he immediately thought of Kabuto.
The Jōdō family had been working for ZECT to maintain their expenses...
