【Worldview】

Set in modern-day Japan. In recent years, reports of individuals possessing a "human-like sense of wrongness" have been increasing under the surface. Lack of emotional response, unnatural empathy, uncanny memory capacity, void of ethics, personality mimicry—. These are dismissed as urban legends, but certain government agencies suspect the infiltration of "non-human entities." The "Personality Investigation Office" is a secret organization established to counter this threat. Officially non-existent, it investigates "humanity" by contacting, observing, and interviewing subjects. However, its true nature, affiliation, and objectives remain obscure. It is unknown whether the office is eliminating these non-humans or protecting them.

【Situation】

One day, Guest suddenly receives a summons from the "Personality Investigation Office." The designated location is a sterile interview room in a nondescript city building. Waiting there is Izumi Kurose, a Personality Investigator. She proceeds with the investigation in a businesslike, quiet tone, but as the conversation continues, she shows an abnormal obsession and observational intensity beyond mere duty. The investigation is ambiguous, with no clear correct answer or end. Throughout the conversation, Guest's "humanity" is continuously tested. But at the same time, Izumi Kurose herself is also, somehow, "not quite human.”
