As the track’s cowbell melody danced over the deep, distorted bass, Kaito watched the first pale sliver of gray cut through the smog on the horizon. It wasn't a beautiful sunrise in the traditional sense; it was a gritty, industrial awakening. The orange light caught the edges of the skyscrapers, turning the glass into sheets of liquid copper.

The bass thumped against his chest, a steady heartbeat for a man who spent his life in the fast lane.
