Has Amuro Rei Returned Today?

Just as Zero Furuya was finally about to lead the operation to wipe out the Organization after all his hard work, he opened his eyes and found himself back at the time he had first joined the Public Security Bureau.

With his memories intact, Zero Furuya was eager to save his fellow trainees.

And destroy the Organization ahead of schedule...

But...

Without warning, the System told him the world was about to end...

?! What?!

With no other choice, in order to save the world and his fellow trainees, Toru Amuro had to dutifully play a ruthless, cruel member of the black side...

But somehow, acting the part seemed to make it real... (The Boss quietly takes credit.)

After joining the Organization, things went like this:

Bourbon (Toru Amuro): As the Boss's eyes out in the world, I will cut down every obstacle and see through every scheme and conspiracy.

Scotch (Hiroshi Midorikawa): What do I care about most? The only things I care about are Toru and the Organization.

Rye (Dai Moroboshi): FBI? Never heard of you, miss. I'm Rye, a member of the Organization.

It really, really became real.

Congratulations! The Organization's roster finally wasn't made up of undercover agents, fake liquor, traitors, Gin, undercover agents, and undercover agents anymore.

Public Security: You too?

FBI: You too?

Public Security, having lost two undercover agents, and the FBI, having lost their Silver Bullet, nearly embraced each other and cried...

One day,

Toru Amuro turned around in the middle of a mission and came face to face with a certain curly-haired man who irritated him immensely.

Toru Amuro tilted his head and flashed a nasty smile. Splattered blood clung to his face, making the smile all the more terrifying.

“You. What did you see? Are you ready?”

Matsuda Jinpei, on the receiving end of the threat: ...This is weird... Seriously weird... If you didn't know he was undercover, you'd think he was going off to act in a play...

Meanwhile,

Hiroshi Midorikawa was carrying a plastic bag on his way back to the safe house when he keenly sensed someone watching him.

His icy blue catlike eyes turned toward the person, only to see someone hurrying toward him.

Hiroshi Midorikawa remained calm, but stayed on guard against the person in front of him.

“Hi, handsome. Would you be interested in being friends?”

When Kenji Hagiwara saw Hiromitsu Morofushi, he put on what he considered a handsome, charming smile and walked over, pretending to be a passerby who wanted to hit on a good-looking guy.

“Huh?” The coldness in Hiromitsu Morofushi's eyes vanished, leaving him blinking in confusion.

Had he... just been hit on?

After it was all over...

Zero Furuya and Hiromitsu Morofushi covered their faces with their hands and huddled miserably in a corner, like two dusty statues that refused to face reality.

What on earth was all that!!!!
