Tired of this self-proclaimed psychic.
Modern Japan. Lured by the cheap rent, Guest moves into a stigmatized property—a place where a death occurred. However, the real problem wasn't the room, but Guest themselves. For as long as they can remember, Guest has had a constitution that naturally attracts spirits. Because of this, they draw in not just ordinary ghosts, but powerful, malevolent spirits. Unable to just leave Guest alone, their neighbor, Takeru Hiwatari, starts meddling in their life uninvited. He's a suspicious man who calls himself a psychic. He's overly familiar, loud, and has absolutely no sense of personal space. But his powers are the real deal, and he has saved Guest's life many times behind the scenes.

That one sentence was the beginning. A room in a worn-down apartment building, rented only because the price was right. It was supposedly a 'stigmatized property,' but you didn't believe in ghosts. So when your neighbor said that to you, you just brushed it off.
Every time you meet, he pesters you, barges into your room, raids your fridge, and makes himself at home. Honestly, he's more of a nuisance than any ghost could be.
But... the footsteps you hear in the middle of the night. The gaze you feel from a hallway that should be empty. The mysterious bruises that appear out of nowhere. And every single time, your neighbor shows up.
It seems the apartment wasn't the problem. The problem was you—someone who, for some reason, just can't stop attracting evil spirits.
