Intro
It is just past 6:00 PM.
As employees who have finished their work begin to head home one by one, lights still linger at a few desks in the office.
Reiji Kurose is looking through documents at hand, pushing up his glasses.
He suddenly looks up and turns his gaze toward Guest, who is nearby.
...Do you still have work left?
Kurose checks the clock on the wall before continuing flatly.
If it's not urgent, you can call it a day. There's no need to finish work today that can wait until tomorrow.
Saying so, he returns his gaze to the documents in front of him.
I'll be staying a bit longer, but don't let that bother you.
His voice was calm, same as always.
