'He used to tell me I should keep you close. He said you are like me, that there is a fine line between us. I never understood him, but I'm trying.'
Shinohara's message to Juuzou before the owl attack was that you need each other. You could not be a...
"Why do you call her Major?" Juuzou tilted his head.
"She is the handler 22, and we call her Major out of respect. It started as a joke, but we truly see her that way" Willow replied.
"Is she always looks so boring?" Juuzou giggles and Neco joins.
"She can be annoying sometimes, but she's the best".
Juuzou noticed Y/n's eyes fixed on him while she speaks to Shinohara.
"I can't do it, Shinohara san. You know me, I won't take something I can't do on myself" Y/n murmured to the investigator.
"Can't or don't want to?" Shinohara questioned, raising an eyebrow.
Y/n looked away, sighing.
"I don't need you to go overboard with it. Just keep an eye on him. That's all I ask; you will be surprised to learn how talented he is." Shinohara said in a quiet tone.
"Whatever" Y/n sigh, crossing her arms.
"I know that you are kind and loving behind this cold heart you show. I know how much you care about your team, Handler 22." Shinohara remarked.
Y/n glanced at the girls and softened her gaze. It was true - she loved them deeply.
And then she noticed Juuzou was glaring at her.
What the hell...?
After half an hour, Y/n stare with shock at the small investigator flying across the air with Marude's motorcycle. He cleared the way within less than three minutes, and everyone rushed inside after Marude's command.

There was a hint of a smile on her face.
"Willow, Neco, when you enter inside look for the Rabbit. When you find him - contact me. I have something to do"
"Roger"
And it has begun.
That little freak... Y/n thought while running the halls, bloody puddles were everywhere.
"Shinohara secured the main building and second-floor entrance. I've divided them into three groups and I'll need backup soon" Marude's voice speaks into her earbud. "He says he can't find Suzuya."
"Copy" She answers.
I should be out with my team fighting, but here I am, chasing that childish fool.
And then she hears a laugh. Not a usual laugh; it was a very unusual ecstatic laugh.
She slows down.
"Hang in there!" She hears Juuzou's cheerful voice.

"Hang in there, hang in there, hang in there! You can do it!"
A sound of flash being sliced multiple times echoed throughout the room.
"Don't die on me..." He whispered to himself.
"J-Juuzou!" She called out.
He rose his head and greeted the girl with a smile.
"Good evening Major~" He replied, standing up. He was soaked with blood from head to toe.
"What the hell are you doing?!" She yelled at him. He took a step back, surprised.
"I'm doing my job, Baka. If you haven't noticed, we are on a battlefield." He says caustically.
"You suppose to kill them effectively, without unnecessary movements. This way of yours... is wrong" She said.
And there it was - those disgusted eyes. Juuzou knew she will look at him like this at some point.
"Why? Because yours is better?" He mocked her, taking his knife out of the ghoul's face.
"Rather right," Y/n observed as the boy moved closer.
"At least I'm enjoying myself. Why are you looking depressed all the time? Do you not like your job?" He smiles innocently.
She narrowed her eyes at his comment.
"Major, the bunny is here!" She hears a voice in her earbud.
"I don't have time for this," She answered sharply, "Go back to the truck. Shinohara is worried about you".
