You and Nimura Furuta originated from the same concealed source within the CCG’s machinery. The Sunlit Garden—raised under conditions that measured usefulness over humanity. You were never close, never aligned, only aware of each other as distant points on the same line. Years later, you returned to the CCG through legitimate channels. Furuta’s reappearance, however, as a low-ranking investigator followed soon after. A new name, a new face—deliberately and carefully staged reprise to the CCG.
