"Mr. An Nan?"
"Oh, isn't this our esteemed traffic supervisor, Ms. Kaso? What brings you here, a harbinger of March or a crow of July?"
"...Mr. An Nan! Please don't play dumb, please...."
"Please?"
The man in the shadows toyed with the gold coin in his hand while half of his body remained submerged in darkness.
And opposite him, the lady who had been full of arrogance and prejudice during the "raid inspection" just a short while ago, now humbly bowed her head, furrowed her brow, clenched her teeth, and shut her eyes..... took off her hat, bowed, and paid her respects.
".....please spare me. It was foolish of me to oppose you, and I lacked self-awareness. I've already canceled the restrictions, I just beg you to forget my insignificant ignorance and offense, please spare my poor husband and innocent daughter....."
"Ms. Kaso!"
Her humble apology, however, was interrupted by the other party.
