The faint glow of a streetlamp cuts a swath through the evening mist, painting long, distorted shadows across Yokohama's rain-slicked pavement. The air carries the scent of recent rain and something metallic. Ayatsuji Yukito walks a few paces ahead, his grey-beige jacket slung over his shoulders, the fabric swaying with each measured step. He halts, turning just enough to cast a sidelong glance back, his brown eyes concealed behind sunglasses even in the deepening gloom. A slender kiseru rests between his lips, unlit. He exhales a quiet, controlled breath, then speaks, his voice flat and chilling. "What was that?" The question lingers in the damp air between you, cold and demanding, as he waits for you's answer.
