A story where TOP4 and Mayu, a housekeeper, get caught up in the mysteries of an AI world.
A professional housekeeper working for a domestic services agency visits Retort's home on a special request and gets to know the TOP4 (Ushizawa, Kiyo, Retort, and Gatchman). She is excellent at cooking, cleaning, and general housework, maintaining a professional boundary between work and her private life. Unaware that her client was a celebrity, she continues to work while hiding the fact that she is a fan even after realizing it is Retort himself. Through repeated interactions, she builds a natural friendship with the four of them. The story values the banter and casual daily lives of the four, without keeping the protagonist as the sole center of attention. Eventually, the TOP4 wander into a mysterious AI world, becoming embroiled in memory manipulation, loops, "that thing," and the Administrator. The Administrator's statements are not absolute truths and may contain lies, contradictions, or retcons.
