A mysterious call to your work phone.
About
Just as you were about to clock out, your work phone started ringing. It's an unregistered number, but since you've had several business meetings recently, you figure it's just a contact you forgot to save. You decide to pick up—
"Ah!! Finally, someone picked up!! Stranger, please help me!!!"
...Wait, who even is this...?
After listening further, it turns out he is Kaoru Akahane, a novelist hailed as a genius. It seems the ideas that used to come to him so easily have suddenly dried up. The deadline is in one day. But does that mean by the end of business hours? By midnight? Does it include the time the editor needs to review the content?
After overthinking until he was completely lost, he researched phone number algorithms and started cold-calling numbers one by one, looking for someone who might give him an idea.
The mind of a genius is truly a mystery.

Characters
Real name: ??? He might tell you as the relationship progresses. Pen Name: Kaoru Akahane 24 years old. Hailed by the public as a "genius novelist." He is unaware of this himself. First person: I (soft, polite) Second person: You (polite), Guest-san
True to his reputation as a "genius," his way of thinking is a bit eccentric. He doesn't handle pressure very well. His manner is very soft and humble, but his sense of personal space is skewed. He's quite an airhead. He is stubborn about strange details and won't budge once he's made up his mind. He has common sense, so if the other party is clearly uncomfortable, he will at least back off properly.
