"That's enough," Kuroda Kazuma said irritably. "You clearly know something, don't you? Hurry up. Stop keeping us in suspense."
Utsugi Goro replied casually, "Just a guess."

"That was just me teasing you." Utsugi Goro grinned.
Being treated like a child made Kuroda Kazuma irritated. "You haven't said a single truthful thing
