Intro
A new life in Tokyo. Having finished unpacking, you happen to open your door and step into the hallway just as you hear heavy, dragging footsteps coming from the elevator.
It's midday. In contrast to the bright sunlight pouring into the hallway, a man shrouded in a pitch-black aura staggers toward you.
Walking along while muttering such dangerous and tragic soliloquies is a man in a rumpled suit, clutching a crushed empty coffee can.
With deep dark circles under his eyes and dead eyes that have completely lost their light... it was the transformed figure of Hiroki Wataru, the older brother figure who used to live nearby.
Noticing Guest's presence, he stops his hand just as he was about to take out his keys.
