Remember Me, Baby.
Trapped

Andrew broke through the crowd in the lobby. The situation is really chaotic outside. Men in semi-military uniforms appeared to be arguing with some police officers. There was Jimmy among the crowd, seemingly trying to be the go-between for both sides. Andrew was relieved that his partner was fine. Only Clark can't be reached.

While walking to Bentley's car that had driven him, Andrew tried to contact his best friend once again. However, the result was not as he had expected. The communication tool does not work at all. His personal cell phone fell out of nowhere, he did not want to waste time by looking for it among the debris in the building.

Andrew half ran over to one of Mr.Tanaka's men who served as a driver, then said, “Pinjami I'm your phone.”

The young man reached into his pocket and pulled out his cell phone and handed it to Andrew. “Please, Sir,” he said politely.

“Thank you,” Andrew said before hitting the number combination he had memorized. While waiting for his call to connect, he got into the car and gestured for the man sitting behind the wheel to immediately run the vehicle.

“Where is your position?” andrew asked when she heard Clark's voice from her phone.

“Drew?” reply Clark from the other end of the phone, “I'm still at the Kobayashi family residence. Completely fucked. Everything happens quickly. I can't save them. I heard Sakamoto Zen also ... You have to tell the girl ....”

Clark's voice sounded a little panicked. Andrew could see a guilty look on his best friend's face. He must have felt like a failure because he could not carry out the mission properly. He can find out because the condition here is as chaotic as Clark's condition. He fails to protect Hiro and is unable to capture Robert. Ryuchi .. The bastard disappeared somewhere.

“I understand. Calm yourself,” said Andrew while lowering his tone, “There is something wrong in this mission. You careful. I'll go back to the base to check on Keiko. I'll tell you later.”

After disconnecting the phone, Andrew returned the phone back to its owner

“Thank you,” he said again while staring at the more police cars arriving, “Please take me to the treatment center.”

“Good, Captain,” replied the man while turning the steering wheel to the right at a crossroads.

The car drove fast, overtaking other vehicles nimble. Andrew tapped his finger on his thigh while thinking hard. The wrinkles on his forehead multiplied as he tried to find the complicated knots that linked all of these cases one by one. Hiro was right, there must be an insider who leaked their plans to Robert as well as Ryuchi, otherwise there might be two people who appeared at the right time. Robert's men even recognized him immediately and led him to meet their leader. However, why would that person send Ryuchi as well?

Andrew tried to think from the traitor's point of view. What will he get, or is he looking for until he dares to bet like this? If the plan fails, not only the government people are after it, but also the mafia ... wait, did Hiro not say that Ryuchi already has the stamp of the Kobayashi and Sakamoto families?

Is the traitor looking for the same thing? If he managed to obtain that thing, wouldn't he be able to become a ruler in the black and white world? He became the chairman of the Mafia but also remained a member of the EEL. Really sneaky .. hum, it's worth it Mr.X asked him to come down directly and keep an eye on the field ....

“Captain, we've arrived.”

“Hum.”

Andrew got down and headed for the entrance. He approached the square box and brought his face closer in front of the scanner.

Beeping.

Beeping.

Beeping.

Denied Access.

Andrew brought his face closer once more, but who would have thought that it triggered a level one alarm that signaled danger. Andrew's entire body stiffened when he saw a company of troops approaching the entrance. Their facial expressions were illegible, making Andrew's instincts wary.

“Captain Roux, Mr.Tanaka would like to meet you,” said the man standing at the front, “Please follow us.”

Although his mind was filled with many questions, Andrew followed the man without many questions. He knew they were just following orders. The gunmen escorted him to Mr Tanaka's room as if he were escorting a prisoner. It made Andrew even more convinced that something was wrong.

“Sir,” greet Andrew after opening the door and find Mr.Tanaka standing behind him.

The old man turned his body and stared intently at Andrew before asking, “Why leave your troops there?”

“Kobayashi Hiro tells me that his assistant already has two family stamps and is eyeing Sakamoto Keiko's life, therefore I—"

“How can you be sure of the man?” interrupted Mr.Tanaka without turning his cold gaze over.

“He cannot lie. He was seriously injured by the shot of his assistant and—“

“Then explain to me, where is the seriously injured man? Jovanka found no one in the room but the bodies of Robert's men!” shouted Mr.Tanaka while pounding the table so as to cause a loud echo in the room.

Andrew was stunned and exclaimed, “What?!”

How could? Obviously the man was almost out of blood, it was impossible to just disappear.

“Sir, just to wake up the man can't. There's no way she just disappeared, unless someone helped her.”

Mr.Tanaka pressed the table with both hands, then looked at Andrew with a burning highlight.

“The only person who last saw her was you.”

Hearing those words made Andrew realize, someone had just set him up. And he foolishly got into that trap.

Damnit.
