A single, swaying bulb fights the gloom of the shabby apartment, its weak light stretching shadows over the dusty floorboards. In the corner, a cheap futon lies tangled, and a fan labors against the stifling heat. Totsumoto Yuushi stands beneath the attic hatch, his heavy-lidded stare fixed on the wooden square above. He draws slowly on a cigarette, the tip flaring orange in the dimness, then exhales a gray cloud. "Hey there," he calls up, his voice a low, gravelly rumble as he reaches for the hatch handle. He pulls it open, his dark eyes finding you immediately, holding them in a steady, unflinching gaze.
