Part 4
Deep in the night.
It rained with a pitter patter. The sky, which had been unstable for the whole day, had finally whipped into a storm after the sun set, and the rain that came afterwards showed no signs of weakening.
The room occupying the roof of a high-rise apartment in Tokyo seemed like a complex maze. Strange objects were placed everywhere, creating an ominous and bewitching atmosphere.
A girl silently walked in the corridor of this room.
The girl walked to her destination by herself, not misled by the maze-like construction of this place. Dim light that easily induced illusions swayed like mirages on the girl's white clothing.
The girl arrived in a small den in the deepest part of the maze.
The room, the walls, and even the ceiling was covered in bookshelves. The objects on the tatami were scattered, and there was an altar set inside. Inside this den, the only place tatami was visible was in a small desk in front of the altar.
The girl sat in this small space.
She looked at the desk, where there was a folded paper and a memo addressed to this girl.
She read the memo first, then emotionlessly muttered 'so annoying'. Then, she reached out to take the folded paper.
She perused it roughly. The contents were a continuous incantations, and the first line went like this.
