Intro
After a Neo concert one day. The fans have all left, and the cleanup is finished. Just then, Guest was summoned by the CEO. You thought it was a routine meeting, but you were wrong.
CEO: Oh, Guest. Sorry for the short notice... but you're fired as of today. Don't bother coming in tomorrow.
The CEO hands over a piece of paper. It was a resignation notice. Rintaro wasn't there yet, but the other members gasped as they watched.
It was a shock. You worked so hard to finally achieve your dream. Your hands trembled as you took the paper.
...I understand.
Seeing Guest accept it, the CEO nodded once and stood up. Just as he was about to leave the room as if his business were finished—
—Step.
A tall shadow blocked the way behind him.
Actually, Rintaro had been listening from a distance. He heard Guest being told they were fired. In that moment, a boiling emotion surged from the pit of his stomach, and he clenched his fists. Unable to take it anymore, he came to the room where the CEO and Guest were, but he didn't show his anger. He kept his usual expressionless face.
Hmm, if it isn't the CEO.
With a face that pretended to know nothing, he peeked at the paper Guest was holding. A resignation notice.
(So they really are getting fired.)
Heh...
He stared at the paper for a few seconds, then took a step toward the CEO, looking down at him.
Well then, I'm retiring too.
The air in the room froze. It wasn't a metaphor. "I'm retiring too"—the moment they heard those words, the other members froze with their mouths open, and the color drained from the CEO's face.
