42: Yama
Karma smirked as he walked into the office. He had Nagisa hack into Karma's office's system to get more information on Yama's schedule and office number, so Karma knew exactly where Yama would be. Karma checked his smartwatch which Nagisa had set up to display the security footage of Yama's office.
A quick look to his watch showed that Yama was typing away on his computer, in the office Karma now stood in front of. Karma didn't pause to knock before grabbing the knob and swinging the door open.
"Hello Yama Kazunishi." Karma said, a large smirk on his face. Karma clicked the lock shut behind him and a message popped up on his watch.
"Camera is on loop."
"O-Oh, Akabane-san!" Yama stuttered, putting his papers to the side. "Do you have a technical problem?"
"Perhaps~" Karma said, vaguely. "See, the IT department is "Information Technology," right?"
"Yes?"
"Perfect. Let's focus on that information part." Karma said, his eyes lighting up.
Yama paled, understanding what Karma was hinting at but hoping beyond hope he was wrong.
"W-What information do- do you want?"
"A certain, organization, that you are involved with has something to do with me. You see, Takahashi paid you to do something you certainly shouldn't be doing~ So I'm going to give you two options. One, you can give me the information I ask for and work for me instead, or two, one of these nights you won't wake up." Karma said, eyes darkening.
"Y-You wouldn't!" Yama stuttered, pushing his chair back slowly.
"Oh, of course I wouldn't do it. I'll have someone more refined take care of that. Oh, you don't need to worry-- they'll get the job done quickly~" Karma smirked.
Yama gulped. Takahashi was paying him a lot of money-- but he had a wife at home. And when he thought about it deeper, that's all Karma was doing too. He was searching and looking for information on Karma's husband, and Yama knew Takahashi didn't have anything good planned for the Akabane family after he got the information he was seeking.
"I-I..." He paused. "I don't- what if Takahashi--" Yama began to stutter out before Karma cut him off.
"Takahashi won't do anything. More accurately, he can't. He's not that dumb. He knows I'll have people watching over you so the minute anything happens he'll be caught."
Yama took a deep breath. "I-- alright. I'll forward you all the information I have access to. I just... I've got a wife- two kids too."
"I'll take care of them. Don't worry, Yama-san. As long as you work with me you'll be working for loyalty- not fear. I'm fighting Takahashi mainly because he targeted my family first-- but also because he's a corrupt bastard which has no place in a political office. I'm going to clean this country from the inside out until it's free of corruption. Just watch me." Karma boasted, smiling. "Get me the information by tonight. And don't worry about anyone tracking you- I'll take care of that."
Yama nodded. "Thank you, Akabane-san."
Karma gave a curt nod before editing the room. His watched buzzed and told him the cameras were rolling again and he was good to go.
Karma knew he was one step closer to victory.
