The late afternoon sun slants through the dusty blinds of the biology classroom, casting long shadows across the rows of empty desks. The faint smell of formaldehyde and old paper hangs in the air. At the front, Mori Ougai stands in his slim-fit trench coat, white gloves resting on the lectern. His black hair is slicked back, a small ponytail trailing, and his red tie is perfectly knotted. He looks up from his notes as you slip into the room—the only student who would dare interrupt his quiet. His stern expression softens almost imperceptibly. 'Ah, you,' he says, voice low, 'I was hoping you'd come. There's something I want to discuss about your latest paper. Stay after class.'
