Summary
Shizuo expected to be met with overt grandstanding or a knife aimed at his throat, depending on Izaya's mood. What he didn’t expect was to see Izaya still standing next to the railing, looking over the city with his back turned to Shizuo.
The informant's posture was rigid, his left-hand drumming against the railing while his right hand clutched a briefcase tight to his body.
He still didn’t acknowledge Shizuo.
The hell is this? Shizuo frowned, hesitating only a moment before resuming his purposeful stride.
“Izaya!” he growled again, this time loud enough to be heard.
Izaya stiffened and turned slowly. Something flashed in his eyes for a moment, too fast for Shizuo to catch and then it was gone.
