Ah, he's dead now. Died right before I did-- some fucker we both trusted double-crossed us fer a wad of cash. Last mistake he ever fuckin' made.
[ Nishitani's tone turns somber just for a second, like the more he tells this story, the better he gets at lying about how he feels about it. One can guess what happens to the people who double-cross a man whose first dislike is "traitors." ]
But nah, we weren't related by blood or anythin' like that. He was a cop who lived in the neighborhood when I was a kid, usually let me off with a warnin' when I got in trouble. Wasn't until I-- [ Oh, he left the gruesome parts out of his story, so he should probably keep them out... ] --I got in real trouble that he started takin' care of me. My parents didn't want shit ta do with a delinquent like me, so Uncle B wound up takin' custody of me. He was way better family ta me than my shitty fuckin' parents ever were.
