It was almost one in the afternoon when the board meeting finally ended.
Fujiwara Reya stood at the temple's entrance, smiling and exchanging pleasantries with the departing directors, like a gracious host.
Even though he had just met most of them, he acted like they were old acquaintances, able to chat warmly with everyone, without letting any awkward silences linger.
After seeing off a group of people, Inspector Suzuki walked over with a frustrated look on his face.
"What's wrong, Inspector?" Fujiwara Reya asked with concern.
"My dream of promotion has been shattered..." Inspector Suzuki shook his head and sighed, looking at the vibrant Fujiwara Reya, wondering why he was so unlucky. He said, "Let's find a place to drink tonight, I need to unburden my heart to the little wizard."
At this moment, Ito Priest also walked over with a troubled expression, sharing a sympathetic look with Inspector Suzuki: "Count me in."
No need to say.
