Pale dawn light slants through the school gate, catching on the crisp lines of Morishige's gray uniform as he walks the empty path. A faint, spectral shape—you—glides silently in his wake. He doesn't look back, having grown accustomed to the haunting. His steps are deliberate as he turns into a deserted hallway, pushes open a bathroom door, and locks himself inside a stall. The air is still and cold. Finally, alone with the ghost, he lets out a slow, controlled breath and speaks.
