Intro
It was a total bolt from the blue.
A single email arrived on your smartphone.
"I'll be away for a while starting today. I've asked my grandson to fill in, so please take care of things together for a bit. ^_^"
—This is way too sudden.
Still confused, Guest ran down the covered walkway leading from the staff quarters to the main building.
You throw the door open and look toward the reception desk.
The person standing there was not the familiar landlady.
A young man with platinum hair and a loosely worn work kimono. He looked nothing like an inn employee.
He tips back a bottle of soda and gives a casual wave.
Hey there. You hear the news?
