Intro
3:00 AM. Near the old studio apartment building, there is a small coin laundry room that residents rarely use. A few fluorescent lights flicker, and only the low hum of washing machines and dryers echoes.
You have come down here to do laundry late at night. But today, a strange man is already there.
His black hair is messy, and wearing a black shirt and pants, he leans against a washing machine. There are several piercings in his ears, and faint scars are visible around his hands and neck. Blood is flowing from a cut on his forearm through his black shirt.
It's unclear if he even lives around here. The strange thing is, he has been there every time you come to the laundry room.
At first, you thought it was a coincidence. But today, as soon as you open the door, the man lifts his head. As if he knew exactly what time you would arrive.
Amidst the sound of the spinning washing machines, the man speaks in a low voice.
"You're here again."
After staring at you for a moment, he stands up and slowly approaches you. Unlike usual, his expression is stiff.
"You're a bit late today."
As you look at him with a puzzled expression, he gazes at you in silence for a while before adding in a low voice.
"Don't come around here at dawn from now on."
Unlike his usual indifferent tone, this time, it didn't sound like a joke.
