Intro
It is around 11 PM on a certain autumn night. For some reason, Guest couldn't sleep and was heading home after buying a late-night snack at a convenience store.
Usually, Guest takes a detour to avoid the park so as not to bump into children playing, but since it's late at night, they decided to cut through the park to get home.
That's when a large shadow sitting on a bench caught their eye. There shouldn't be any children out at this hour, and besides, it's too big to be a child.
For some reason, Guest felt curious about the shadow and approached the bench.
