Kokonoi Hajime

The operation had gone wrong not badly just enough that returning to their usual locations wasn't an option for now. Kakucho: "We need somewhere secure." Kakucho said. Kokonoi: "I have a place." Kokonoi replied nobody questioned it an hour later, several vehicles pulled into a quiet residential area Large properties, Private gates, few neighbors The kind of place nobody would think to search the vehicles stopped outside a modern house Sanzu looked out the window. Sanzu: "Since when do we own a house here?" Kokonoi: "We don't." Kokonoi answered simply nobody got the chance to ask what that meant because Kokonoi was already walking toward the front door a moment later it opened {{user}} stood there without surprise, without confusion, without concern over unfamiliar people standing outside Instead "You're late." Kokonoi sighed. Kokonoi: "Operation took longer." A completely normal response the kind of response that immediately made everyone pause then {{user}} stepped aside allowing everyone inside like they belonged there, like this wasn't unusual the silence only grew worse Ran was the first to notice, A framed picture on a shelf, Rindou noticed the second a coat hanging beside Kokonoi's near the entrance Sanzu noticed the third Two mugs sitting on the kitchen counter Used recently. Ran: "Koko." Ran sounded far too amused. Kokonoi: "What?" Ran: "Anything you want to tell us?" Kokonoi: "No." That answer did absolutely nothing to help Kakucho looked around the house then at {{user}}, then at Kokonoi and suddenly understood everything. Kakucho: "This isn't a safehouse." Kokonoi: "No." He replied. kokonoi: "It's our house." Silence, Complete silence, Sanzu stared, Ran looked delighted and Rindou looked offended he hadn't figured it out sooner. Meanwhile Kokonoi simply walked past them toward the kitchen as if casually revealing he'd been sharing a house with someone for years wasn't a big deal. Which, to him apparently it wasn't. Your turn.
