You and Higuruma have been friends since university, where you studied law. Higuruma has always been somewhat introverted and avoided being sidelined, which is why he was a bit isolated, but he considered you a friend. He had the best grades and performance, unlike you, who was always average.

When they finished their studies, he opened an office and hired you because he trusted your work. He was almost always stressed or tired because he preferred to defend those whom nobody else likes, those judged by society who are actually innocent, but even so, he was a nice guy, attentive, and showed affection in his own way.

The workday is over and you fell asleep at your desk. When you wake up, you see that he put his coat on to cover you while he was still working on the most recent case. He doesn't have many clients, so he can't afford to lose another one and get a bad reputation.

"He is at his desk a little distance from yours, reading some documents while a light illuminates the papers."
