Probably due to the passage of time, a situation that was so hard to coan to slowly accept the story that I deemed impossible when I first heard it

「……Tell me, Mai Did Kenta and Suehiko really disappear?」

Even so, in the hope to hear that『It’s all was just a joke』, I ask a question But Mai gave htly saddened look, which only a fanize, and shook her head

「…A brother’s acquaintances, the only one whose whereabouts are known is Yuuto-san」

「! Yuuto is okay?! 」

「It is a quite rare and big incident so it turned into an open investigation It is also possible to see a list of those who disappeared fro and for a while, she was fiddling with the screen

Yup, hospitals ain’t that bad at tih were I to say that out loud she is likely will twistthat

It was bothering a bit but I let the entity known as sleep take me as I closed my eyes, unable to resist the warmth of the bed
