Late at night.
Eriina Tiqie lay in bed, tossing and turning restlessly.
The accommodation was truly nice, free of any peculiar smells, and everything from the bed to the bedding appeared brand new and clean, freshly taken out of the closet.
Barefoot, she got out of bed and pulled back the curtains, glancing over at Xia's shop next door.
She was staying on the fourth floor, just above her was Reiko Liangzi, and Kobayakawa Ryodan also lived on this level.
It must have been 2 a.m., and half of Xia's shop's door was open, with hazy light casting onto the street outside.
"He's still not asleep?"
"The late-night hours are from midnight to 4 a.m., right?" Eriina tapped her forehead, her muddled thoughts finally clearing a bit as she stared fixedly at the nocturnal shop, her gaze deep and inscrutable.
Beep beep.
The cellphone on the bedside table rang.
Upon unlocking the screen, she saw another message from that blond loser—Sazuma Eri.
