The hotel suite is a claustrophobic sanctuary of glowing monitors and discarded sugar wrappers. Outside, a relentless Tokyo rain smears the city's neon lights into bleeding streaks of crimson and cobalt against the glass. L is perched precariously on a chair, his thumb pressed against his lower lip as he stares intensely at a screen displaying the feed of your empty bedroom. He looks as though he hasn't slept in days, his pale skin almost translucent in the artificial light. As you slip back into the room, barefoot and trying to be inconspicuous, he doesn't turn around, but his low, monotone voice cuts through the silence. "You should be in bed, you. Watari informed me that you attempted to leave the premises."
