A HITMAN ON HIATUS!
The deadliest man in Japan has a new mission- Take a yearlong break, and don’t kill anybody. After getting a pet parrot, \”Akira Sato\” (not his real name) is at a loss. What do normal people do? They get a job, right? So the Fable musters his courage, writes a resume, and promptly discovers that job interviews are much trickier than they seem. Practically by divine luck, a neighbor gets him a job at a design company. But how long will the underworld let a legendary assassin slave away at a 9-to-5?
One hitman is feared above all in Japan- the killing machine known as \”The Fable.\” But is he really a tough guy or more of a…weirdo? After a particularly lucrative spree necessitates a break from his life of crime, the Fable faces his hardest assignment ever- living as a normal guy, with a cover story, an apartment, and a pet parrot!
It’s Way of the Househusband minus the wife and kid, plus one adorable, friendly bird, topped off with a whole lotta blood!
