Akira wanted their return to Mountain Ridge to be low-key and quiet and without incident. However, after some discussion with Kaito, she agreed that it would be best if they made a dramatic appearance. People in the shadows needed to know Kaito was back since they were all speculating about his death.
An ostentatious appearance was crucial because Kaito's presence was her primary protection during the vulnerable period.
Therefore, after staying in Supreme City for a week, the two people took Zhong Feng's private plane to Mountain Ridge. Going through Tokyo first would have been more prominent, but it was not suitable because of Akira's condition.
However, it did not matter because the people in Mountain Ridge were always prepared for gossip. The news about their return would be on MR Circle before they left the airport.
