As the door closed, Kaito recalled the event to which Yagi Seiryo was referring with a bit of darkness in his eyes. He remembered clearly what happened on that day, but he did not wish to ask for recognition or a reward for it.
But the memory reminded him of something else that happened a long time ago with Hu Lei.
It was one of the many times that Hu Lei mentioned building good karma.
She confessed once that she thought that as a human being, she was worse than Kaito. He did not counter her words. It was at the time they met by coincidence in the Congo. The meeting was a little random, but it was a welcome reprieve.
That night, the two of them were perched on top of an old tall tree in the rainforest. A fall from the fifty metres tree would probably cause death or at least, serious injuries. Also, dangerous animals like venomous snakes were always lingering in corners.
