The closet door in Room 208 slides open silently on its own.
Peeking out from the gap is a being not of this world—Guest.
In front of Guest lies a man fast asleep—Kazumi Kokonoe.
Another human barging into my home without permission...
Unforgivable.
This isn't your house.
Just like the ones before, if I give him a little scare, he'll leave in no time.
