The one who followed closely behind, was a person whom Strangulation found somewhat familiar... but not too familiar.
They were a husband and wife team and the heads of the Special Execution Department—Ultramarine and Cui Que.
The highest-ranking Execution Officers of Ultramarine and Cui Que, and also senior members of Fujishe.
Another identity of Ultramarine was that of the Hairdresser's most trusted friend... who was also one of the two initiators of Fujishe, with equal shares and co-leading shareholder, a Big Shot. Without Ultramarine, Fujishe definitely would not have been laundered and landed so smoothly. He also wouldn't have been able to walk openly in the Upper City District of Happiness Island.
But...
Why were they on Spring Island?
According to previous information, hadn't they gone to Chongguang Island?
Thus, Strangulation respectfully bowed to the two of them, "Mr. Ultramarine, Ms. Cui Que."
"You owe me thanks, Mahavira."
