"Hello? Hello? Mr. Duistan?"
Little Red Riding Hood held up her phone, anxiously asking, but only a noisy electric current could be heard on the other end.
At this moment, she, along with Jingzhe Xiazi, disguised as mortuary staff, was visiting Yoshikai Ryomi's home in East City, attempting to persuade her to come with them to handle funeral affairs.
To the outside world, Yoshikai Ryomi's brother, Yoshikai Haru, had first brutally murdered his wife, then jumped off a building to commit suicide. Such a severe criminal case rapidly spread throughout this city, neither too big nor too small.
The house had turned into a crime scene, now sealed off with police tape. Yoshikai Ryomi, homeless, faced strange looks from teachers and classmates at school every day, and her spirit was nearly breaking.
It was her good friend, Miyazaki Ayaki, who convinced her parents to let her temporarily stay at their house. At least until the police removed the tape.
