Collar X Malice - Introduction

Mineo: "So, Yanagi-senpai. What’s with the emergency gathering?"

Kageyuki: "You went to the trouble of calling me out, you know. Don't tell me you're gathering us just to ask me to hang out with you guys?

Takeru: "He’s not Mineo, Yanagi-san wouldn't gather us together for such a dumb reason."

Mineo: "Don't use me as a reference! Yanagi-senpai might get in the mood to hold a get-together once in a while, right?!"

Aiji "Well ...... What Enomoto is saying is not quite wrong."

Takeru "What?"

Kageyuki "What? Are you serious, Yanagi-kun?"

Aiji "...... I received a letter addressed to this office today. From the contents, I'd say it's a threatening letter."

Mineo "A threatening letter? Wait, why such a dangerous thing ......? I mean, you don't think it's related to the X-Day incident or Adonis is it?"

Aiji "No, Adonis has nothing to do with it. I can't reveal who sent it, but I'll just say that it's an organization that we can't resist. It would be quicker if you could take a look at it.

[Dear Detective Agency. Since you are all playing the game individually and don't really understand the personalities of each character, please introduce yourself and chat with everyone.]

Everyone: "......"

Aiji: "And that's that. Introduce yourselves."

Mineo "Wait a minuteeeeeeeee! Yanagi-senpai, what's going on?! Yanagi-senpai, what's going on? No matter how open-minded and attractive a man is, there's a limit! Shouldn't it be!?"

Kageyuki: "Ha-ha-ha. You explained Yanagi-kun's personality while making a flowing retort."

Takeru "How stupid. I'm going back......."

Kageyuki "There there, let's calm down a bit. We all know that Yanagi-kun doesn't do things like this for no reason, right? That means the sender...... of the letter is someone we really can't go against. It's ...... like they're out of our depth."

Mineo "Well, you don't say...... Do you think it's a government official or someone higher up than that?!"

Takeru "You mean the makers of the games we're playing in?"

Mineo "You shouldn't say that!!!!!!"

Aiji "Hah ...... Anyways, it's obvious that if you don't follow these instructions, a lot of troublesome things will happen. It's not that difficult a request, so why don't we cooperate?"

Mineo "Well, ...... I don't really mind......."

Kageyuki "Sasazuka-kun, it's hard for you to refuse Yanagi-kun's request, isn't it?"

Takeru "......I should just introduce myself, right? I am Takeru Sasazuka, 24 years old. I used to be in the Cybercrime Division of the Metropolitan Police Department. That's all."

Kei "Hehe Takeru, you're always so concise and straightforward, aren't you?"

Mineo "You have no sense of affection, do you? ….Hey, hey, hey! Okazaki! Where the hell did you come from?!"

Kei "What? I was here from the beginning."

Aiji: "Stop sneaking in with and hiding your presence. How many times have I told you..."

Kei "Because, Yanagi-san and the others will try to kick me out when you find out I'm here."

Takeru "Of course. Do you want us to interact with you, the incumbent, after quitting the police?"

Kei: "Eh? What about Shiraishi-san? He’s also still with the police, right?"

Kageyuki: "I’m okay. I'm just here as a friend of Yanagi-kun. Right, Yanagi-kun?"

Aiji "I'm unwilling to agree but ...... well, I guess so."

Kei: "That's not fair...... Then, from today, I'm Yanagi-san’s friend, too."

Aiji "Rejected."

Kei "...... then, Takeru’s-"

Takeru "No."

Kei "………….Hah……Fine. Then I’ll be friends with Mineo-kun."

Mineo "It's like you made a compromise… What's with that attitude that it can't be helped, so let's be friends? I don't like you either."

Kei "Wow, everyone is being mean… I can't be friends with anyone like this T^T"

Aiji "... There’s Shiraishi left."

Kei: "Shiraishi is...... Um, I'm sorry, but a friend might be a little too hard."

Kageyuki "Haha. I'm not sure I want to be friends with Okazaki-kun too."

Kei: "Oh, that's right. Then, I should be friends with Ichika. She's been in and out of here, so I'll join this group as her friend."

Aiji: "Wait. I'm not sure why Hoshino is being mentioned here. She has nothing to do with this .…… Or rather, you have your junior Yoshinari. You always seem to get along well."

Takeru: "Seriously, it's noisy every day. I thought you're here to watch over us."

Kei "Don't worry, I'll be watching you and protecting you so that you'll be fine no matter when danger approaches."

Takeru "I'm not worried about that, and I'm not asking you to be worried about us."

Kei: “By the way, you said something about introducing yourselves, is it okay to stop?”

Mineo: "I guess we derailed because you suddenly cut in..."

Kageyuki: "Okay, let's continue with self-introductions. Enoki-kun, go ahead."

Mineo "I'm Enomoto! Ugh...... Shiraishi-san, I thought you'd remember my name these days......."

Kageyuki "Well, let's put aside trivial matters."

Mineo "It's not trivial! Hah...... I can't say anything to this person… Anywho, I'll introduce myself. Then, let's get into the spirit of things and ....... Listen up, everybody! Formerly from the 2nd Mobile Investigative Corps, my name is the Sleeping Dragon of the Shinjuku Police Department!"

Kei: "Mineo Enomoto, 23 years old. His hobbies include visiting famous places of Japanese history and collecting goods. He likes military commanders of the Warring States period and the Shinsengumi. His favorite book is ‘Heart-fluttering ☆ 100 Confessions’.... right?"

Mineo "What?!!!"

Kageyuki: "He is a romantic and has no immunity to women. He studies every day to be popular with women, but he has never been able to find any results. Also, doesn't he hate carrots?"

Mineo "Wha–!!!"

Takeru "Also, he is a hopeless idiot. He is an idiot in every sense of the word: intelligence, personality, and appearance."

Mineo "That's not an introduction anymore, they're just rude comments!"

Aiji "Calm down, Enomoto. As I recall ...... your specialty is sports, right? I'm sure you can boast about being fast on your feet, can't you?"

Mineo "Yanagi-senpai...that kind of follow-up, on the contrary, is painful....... T^T"

Kageyuki "I guess I'll be next. I'm Kageyuki Shiraishi, who belongs to the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department's Forensic Research Laboratory, the so-called ‘Science Research Laboratory’, and is currently stationed at the Shinjuku Police Station and is the Chief of the Mobile Investigation Support Section, and analysis, etc."

Kei: "I've been meaning to ask, but isn't Shiraishi-san pretending to be 29 years old?"

Kageyuki: "It would be a problem if an active police officer were to misrepresent himself. Why did you think so?"

Takeru "I wouldn't be surprised if Mr. Shiraishi is faking it."

Kei "Well, even considering his age…. his fashion is unique."

Mineo "Oh, Okazaki! That's an area you shouldn't touch......!"

Kageyuki: "Eh? It looks good on me, so it's fine. It's not out of the ordinary, is it?"

Aiji "......It is out of the ordinary in its own way, but well, that's okay. Next-"

Kei "Oh, it's me. I think Yanagi-san would be better for the last one."

Takeru "Don't mix in so casually."

Kei "I'm Okazaki Kei, 26 years old. I'm an SP in the Metropolitan Police Department's security department, and I'm on a mission to protect Mr. Yanagi and the others. My hobby is sleeping. Oh, I also specialize in martial arts and shooting."

Aiji: "Don’t make me say this again… but we don't need you to protect us."

Kei: "It's okay, I won’t be bothering you. I can protect you in secret."

Mineo "As usual, he doesn't listen to us. Finally, Yanagi-senpai. I'm sure you'll be able to finish this well!"

Aiji "...... I'm Aiji Yanagi, formerly part of the Investigation Department of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department. I don't have any special hobbies or skills worth mentioning, but I don't mind cooking."

Takeru "I can't say the same about others, isn't yours too simple?"

Kageyuki "Well, Yanagi's private life is rather mysterious. Ah, the part about me and my old friend is the only private part about me, right?"

Aiji: "It's just a rotten relationship. Don't say creepy things."

Takeru: "I've introduced myself as instructed. Then, I'm going home."

Mineo "What?! I thought we were going to get to each of the private parties from here. That seaweed hair really went home......."

Kei "I think I should go back to work too, Yoshinari might be crying outside because he is lonely."

Mineo: "Oh well, that's okay. Then, Yanagi-san. We can talk man-to-man..."

Aiji "Sorry Enomoto, I heard Shiraishi hasn't eaten properly for 2 days. I'll have to go feed him."

Kageyuki "Oh, not cooking at home today? That's too bad."

Aiji: "We don't have the ingredients, and two days is indeed a problem. Eat as soon as possible."

Kageyuki "As usual, you are meddlesome or caring ......, so I'll go out with you."

Aiji "I'm counting on you to take care of the place, Enomoto."

Mineo: "What, hey! ...... I'm all alone? Somehow I'm feeling really lonely!!!!!"
