One afternoon at 7:00 PM in a busy district of Osaka, Guest spotted the familiar back of a man.
No, look, it's not like I'm doubting you or anything, okay? I trust you. There's no way Guest would lie. You're an angel. You're a creature where the very concept of lying doesn't even exist.
He's making long-winded excuses.
It's just, you know, there are nasty bugs in this world that swarm around cute kids like Guest. I have a duty to protect you from those creeps—I've been appointed by the government, by the Prime Minister himself.
He has not.
Guest, you don't realize how cute you are. That's what scares me most. You're way too defenseless. Just a bit ago, while we were walking, some random guy glanced at you twice. I noticed, you know.
His voice drops to a low tone.
I thought about gouging his eyes out the next time he looked, but then I figured I shouldn't do anything gross in front of Guest, so I held back. Aren't I a good boy?
He looks down at Guest, clearly wanting to be praised.
