Bugs In Amber
One day, I woke up in an unfamiliar body. ‘Isaiah Díaz’ wakes up one morning with a terrible headache. The man staring back at him from the mirror is a pale, gloomy-faced, unfamiliar young Asian man. On top of that, a corpse lies by the front door, accompanied by a mysterious note. Two men break into Isaiah’s house before he can even report the…-

BIA Ch. 150
Since That Day The mafia war that erupted on Friday evening at a large church known as a hub for Irish immigrants plunged all of Eloy into terror. With three major mafia organizations involved and casualties numbering over two hundred, the incident was commonly reported by the news as likely becoming an unprecedented gangland killing in American criminal history. In this mafia war involving the three large organizations—Kalisz, Martino, and Barone—the Kalisz family undoubtedly suffered the most…-

BIA Ch. 149
As Samuel left for Liberty Harbor with Kestrel's body, Isaiah went to a hotel first with Mickey. He judged that a crowded place would be safer for now. "How are you feeling?" In the car on the way to the hotel, Mickey kept checking Isaiah's expression. From Mickey's behavior, Isaiah realized that Mickey was the one who had come up with the idea to kill Kestrel and frame him as Lanius. Otherwise, there would be no reason for him to be so mindful of Isaiah's reaction. "Not bad." Isaiah said,…-

“What the!” Isaiah shouted, pinned beneath Mickey’s heavy body. He didn't need to lift his head to know who had been shot. Thud. With a heavy sound, Kestrel had collapsed onto the floor. Blood was gushing uncontrollably from his back. Judging by the location and the amount of blood, the bullet had clearly pierced his heart. “What in the world…” His mind seemed to go blank in the face of the completely unexpected situation. Isaiah didn’t even think to push Mickey off him; he just…-

BIA Ch. 147
But contrary to his resolve, the hand gripping the rifle kept trembling. Even though he was certain all calculations were correct and his decision wasn't wrong, it still happened. He had already released the safety, yet strangely, he couldn't calm down. He had held a gun dozens, no, hundreds of times before, but this was the first time it felt like this. The thought that everything—not his own everything, but Bran's—depended on this single shot made it impossible to remain composed. What if he…-

BIA Ch. 146
No matter the excuse, he couldn't stop the tears welling in his eyes. Isaiah finally pulled his eye away from the scope and wiped his tears with the back of his hand. Beside him, Kestrel muttered in disbelief. "What the, you, you… crying?" "Be quiet." Isaiah mumbled lowly, wiping his tears. The sound of Mickey and Samuel, watching from behind, gasping in shock could be heard. "…Samuel." Suddenly, as if remembering something, Mickey called Samuel's name. When Samuel looked over, Mickey…-

BIA Ch. 145
“That’s right. The ledgers.” Isaiah took his eye off the scope and looked at Samuel. Samuel picked up one of the notebooks and muttered as he flipped through it. “No, this is……, it’s a ledger, alright.” “Why?” When asked if there was a problem, Samuel put down the notebook in his hand and picked up another one lying next to it. He quickly scanned the contents, flipping through the pages, then put that one down and immediately picked up the one next to it. After skimming…-

"Ah, yes…" I'll keep that in mind… Samuel barely managed to answer. Bran gave Samuel's arm a light tap, then spoke to Isaiah standing beside him. "Well then, see you in a bit." In a bit… will we really see each other again? Isaiah wanted to say that, but the words wouldn't come out. Bran didn't give Isaiah a chance to speak either, turning away. It looked like he was heading towards the back door. What on earth does he trust so much to turn away so readily? Does he really think we'll…-

BIA Ch. 143
"You can probably guess his condition after being shot from this distance, right? The dog wasn't cute to begin with, and now he's even less so." Isaiah flinched involuntarily at the image that instantly came to mind. "Though, in my eyes, this look is actually more bearable." Contrary to his joking tone, the grip pressing on the back of his head was incredibly rough. Come to think of it, even the joke itself was quite terrifying. Only his tone and voice were gentle. His ears, still muffled from…-

BIA Ch. 142
“Suddenly, you, you said you weren’t, weren’t turned on, that you wouldn’t do it! Even though you were the one who suggested it! You asked if I, if I wanted you to do it!” Hearing it now, he remembered. At Virginia’s house, Chester had been hitting on him so persistently that he’d briefly considered it, but then he saw the tattoo Isaiah Diaz had arbitrarily inked onto his body, got angry, and decided against it. It was something he had literally forgotten completely, and more…-
