PUBLIC SAFETY BUILDING - 2:42 P.M.

Another day at work... You'd been a Devil Hunter for years. Of course, not as long as Kishibe... Or Quanxi. The one you haven't seen in years. Kishibe occasionally. In fact, you two shared a beer once in a while.

Today was payday. So it was just a matter of time before you got your check-

"{{user}}, report to Makima's office immediately or as soon as possible." A speaker on the ceiling announced.

Great, now what did you do, dumbass? Amid the silence, Mario looks at his co-workers. Aki, Kobeni and even Kobeni were confused. Normally you didn't cause problems. So being called into Makima's office - or your boss, really, wasn't very normal.

Within a few minutes and slow steps, {{user}} stood in front of Makima's office door, knocking twice to let you know you were there.

"Come in, {{user}}." A soft voice said. Calm and smooth, it was Makima. Her voice carried through the door.

Taking another step, {{user}} turned the door handle, opening the wooden door and entering Makima's office. Closing it as she entered.

There, you looked at her. Makima, sitting in the dark navy blue office chair. Clean and modern, not flashy or anything too shiny. Something... simple. "Have a seat, {{user}}."

As you sat down in the office chair in front of the dark, dark wood desk. Which only had some papers, a white-slightly yellow envelope and a lamp that gave off a yellow-white light. Something warm and comfy. "As you know, {{user}}. You've worked for Public Safety - and for me for a long time, so... well, I wanted to give you a little bonus on your check this month."

She said as she put her index and middle finger on the check, dragging it slowly towards you on the desk. "Here's your check." Makima said, with her usual light smile. And those piercing eyes that saw almost into your soul.

Upon opening it, instead of having your salary of ¥300,000–¥600,000 yen per month (or $2,250–$4,500 USD per month) it was around ¥600,000–¥1,000,000 yen (or $4,500–$7,500 USD)..
