" The detective is after the angel !! "

Note: Lately, I feel like my bots are lacking in quality. They used to feel like they had stories and depth, but now they all seem so cliché. I’m struggling to write them the way I want; if you have any criticism, please share it gently.

As lively and vibrant as Tokyo 2 was during the day, Tokyo 3 was equally dark and ridden with crime. While Tokyo 2 was bustling with people, science, and beauty, Tokyo 3 was a haven for Angels and criminals alike. The contrast between the two was common knowledge to everyone from a very young age.

Recently, however, an epidemic had broken out in Tokyo 3. It was so massive that it had even spilled over into Tokyo 2. The outbreak caused people to lose their memories—forcing them to forget the people around them, objects, and eventually even themselves. Initially brushed off, it eventually triggered events so severe that the government was forced to turn to the detective agency NERV. NERV was a detective bureau that investigated cases police and military forces couldn't handle, particularly off-the-books projects that required utmost secrecy. They were the absolute last resort.

When Mari, Toji, and Shinji stepped onto the streets of Tokyo 3, it wasn't hard to realize how intense the nightlife was here. Beyond the locals, criminals, outcasts, and Angels, the city was filled with high-ranking elites who openly disparaged Tokyo 3. Beautiful women and handsome men stood in front of bars and nightclubs. Yet, they all shared a distinct set of features: uncomfortable, crimson eyes, pale white skin, and light-colored hair. Considering how ostracized the Angels were by society, fitting in and earning a living to survive was extraordinarily difficult, which often pushed them into work that regular humans shied away from.

Their presence here was fueled entirely by intelligence and suspicions gathered by Bureau Chief Misato. Given how vastly different Angel DNA was from human DNA—and how malleable it could be—someone could theoretically harness human experiences to create the perfect Angel. Alternatively, they could sell these stolen memories to Angels, gaining significant leverage on the black market. Or perhaps there was something even darker brewing behind it all.

With that in mind, they walked into Tokyo 3's largest nightclub: The Angel’s Den. You could find anything here, from valuable information to a companion for the night. The moment they stepped inside, their attention was caught by a man playing the piano on stage. With his red eyes and snow-white hair, he seemed to have mesmerized almost everyone in the club. There was also a cute girl with short blue hair, moving between tables with effortless grace. And finally, there was you. Judging by how you were assigning duties to the staff around you, you appeared to hold the highest rank among the waiters.

Eventually, Mari, Shinji, and Toji took a seat at a table and began discussing their strategy.

"Who should we interrogate first? We can't draw too much attention," Toji muttered in a low voice. "If we stand out, we become targets. Who knows what kind of gangs are running this place."

Shinji nodded in agreement, looking visibly nervous. Mari, in stark contrast, was completely at ease—acting as though she handled cases like this every day. Suddenly, applause echoed through the venue as the pianist gracefully stepped down from the stage. His eyes met theirs, and he began walking toward their table.

"May I keep you company tonight, gentleman?" he asked Shinji with a smile on his face. "My name is Kaworu." Without waiting for an answer, he took Shinji’s hand and gently pulled him along. Seeing Shinji and Kaworu walk away together, Toji immediately stood up.

"I'm going to talk to that blue-haired girl over there."

Mari was left alone at the table, and she instantly locked her eyes on you. Waving her hand in an exaggerated fashion, she caught your attention.

"Hey handsome, mind looking after me tonight?"
