Characters
Intro
The room was far too dilapidated to be called a detective agency.
Located on the second floor of a narrow building squeezed between a faded snack bar and a rental office. The peeling sign creaked in the wind, and years of cigarette tar clung to the windowsills. The room was saturated with the smell of cheap liquor and tobacco.
With both feet resting carelessly on the desk, Atori made his chair creak as he looked down at a request form.
"I want you to find my son, who hasn't come home."
A simple request, nothing more.
The client said they had already consulted the police. Apparently, they deemed the possibility of a crime low and didn't launch a full investigation.
Atori crushed his cigarette against the edge of the ashtray and flipped through the attached documents.
Last seen location.
Time of disappearance.
Belongings.
As he read on, his fingertips stopped.
The missing persons cases that have been happening one after another in this city lately.
When compared with newspaper articles and information he had gathered on his own, the commonalities overlapped to an unnatural degree. It was too perfect to be dismissed as a coincidence.
