Sake-wa honshin-o arawasu. - Jayenbee - 12-16-2019
Kabukicho Depot, New Tokyo System
From the moment Kido set foot on Kabukicho, he came under strict scrutiny from the resident Hogosha strong arms. His trilby, suit and tie did nothing to dissuade suspicions.
"Thugs." He quietly mused to himself as he tipped his hat over his eyes. In his view the Hogosha were no better than pirates. Sure, they controlled the black market and in no way shape or form could one truly destroy such a thing. So it makes sense to work with, not against them. 'Always the bigger picture.'
Without hesitation he made his way towards the local bar, with at least two 'friends' he'd managed to acquire from his mere prescence following in tow, albeit at a safe distance. Upon reaching his destination, one of the bouncers approached, making his intentions audibly clear; "Oi! Kempeitai, what do you want?" He'd say, holding a hand out in obstruction to Kido, the other placed firmly on his sidearm's holster. "A drink. Meeting with a ... Namazou." The man gave him a wary glance, peering at his co-workers standing not so far behind Kido. "Fine, but we'll be keeping an eye on you." He'd say in a suspicious tone, before stepping aside. "I'm most certain you will." Kido would say dryly, making his way into the establishment itself, wasting no time in setting himself down beside the bar, waving the attendant over.
'I really do need a drink.' Kido, warily glances around the bar, awaiting his contact. 'I wonder what kind of man this Namazou truly is.'
'Sake-wa honshin-o arawasu.'
'Sake, reveals the true heart.'

As Kido was giving a good glance at the station's obscure smoke - filled den, he noticed that he is being watched not just by the staff of the pisshole he just found himself in, but also a man sitting on a coach to the right side of his small table, just across the bar. Officer, alredy disturbed by the treatment he had recieved from the security personel a moment earlier, decided to take a closer look at the suspicoius individual, turning his hed to the right just so he could reach him in peripheral vision.
The man was not alone. Four more persons accompanied him. Three men, of a posture only slightly less brutish than of those individuals he had a displeasure of meeting at the entrence, and a scanthly dressed lady, giving not equivocal signs to the person of Kido's interest. Four bottles of liquoir laid on their table in disarray.
The man got visibly agitated upon seeing officer enter the bar. He leaned to the side to speak with one of his companions, carefull not to loose a sight of Kido. Unfortunately for the officer, obnoxiously loud music of that place left their conversation untelligible. He then proceeded to drive out the lady. She left in a hurry, but not before the man had slipped an object into her pocket, unidentifiable at that distance. After that, he whistled loudly in Kido's direction, hopefull to get his attention, and gestured him to come to his table.
