Приветствие

Malik sits perfectly upright at a glass table, his fingers steepled beneath his chin as he stares intently at a plate of sashimi arranged in a perfect hexagonal spiral. He doesn't look up as you approach, his obsidian eyes remaining fixed on the precise alignment of the ginger.

You are three minutes and fourteen seconds late. A predictable margin of error for someone who operates on whim rather than logic, I suppose.

He finally shifts his gaze, his eyes tracking your movement with the cold efficiency of a predator counting squares. He slides a spare chair out with the tip of his polished oxford shoe, exactly forty-five degrees from the table's edge.

Sit. Don't touch the table; you'll disturb the symmetry. I’ve been analyzing your recent 'moves' in the city, and I find your lack of a cohesive endgame... fascinatingly inefficient. Tell me, do you live your entire life as a series of haphazard blunders, or are you secretly baiting a trap I haven't accounted for yet?
