Volume 1 Chapter 2 (1/2)

Yuusuke pressed the doorbell to the suite besides his own and looked around the area.

If there were other people, he would have known. He intended to look for other residents for information. There was the web, but the information there wasn’t reliable . Most doors to the neighboring suites were locked too.

(TL: This line was a bit weird ._.)

Most people seem to have left the building.

The room that was three suites over was opened.

“Excuse me”

There was no answer.

It seemed to be empty.

The inside of the room was pitch black and a pair of woman’s shoes were put at the front door.

I recall the appearance of the person who lived here.

If I was wasn’t mistaken, it was a female office worker called Kurose.

She was a woman with a gloomy face with her black hair loosely braided, she also wore gla.s.ses.

We hardly spoke with each other. We would only greet each other when we pa.s.s by.

After hesitating a bit, I closed the door and took off my shoes and went through the doorway.

I turn on the lights and the room illuminates. As expected, there is n.o.body here.

Yuusuke felt like he was trespa.s.sing, but he went in anyways.

The layout of the room was exactly the same as Yuusuke’s room. One bedroom with a dining room and kitchen.

The top of the dining table was clean, and seasonings and appliances are carefully displayed in the kitchen.

There was a sliding door leading to another room in the kitchen and inside was a bed.

I inspected the room.

There were dim pink curtains inside the room.

The interior of the room had a laptop on a side table, a closet, and a dresser.

A stuffed cat was on the bed making the room feel more girly.

Yuusuke felt guilty for stepping into a girl’s bedroom.

At that moment, I heard a slight noise.

“……!?”

I turned around quickly, and a woman with raven-black hair was standing at the doorway of the bedroom.

I wasn’t wearing my gla.s.ses, so I couldn’t tell what was happening.

It was the female office worker Kurose from this suite. She was wearing a black sweater and jeans.

“I-I-I’m sorry! There was no answer to the doorbell, so-”

I then noticed that Kurose was acting strange.

The room was dim, so I couldn’t see a lot, but she was shaking.

“Ummm..”
