Now, without further ado...
1.5 Days Before the Incident
"We'll switch to Kei Saionji, reporting live on the site of yet another one of these mysterious body piles. Kei? What can you tell us about the bodies?"
"Yes, now if you look behind me, the police have just cordoned off the alleyway to prevent anyone from tam-"
The voices that came from the TV cut off. Again, the news covered the mysterious body piles that seem to pop up every two weeks or so. People are thinking that Strega is the one behind this and Shou was very much inclined to subscribe with the notion. That organization has always been recognized as a threat to the stability of Daitomi, according to local news channels and the mayor of Daitomi. Supposedly, it would only be a matter of time before the Strega presence is completely rooted out of Daitomi, but that declaration was almost a month ago.
His sister was watching TV in the other room and he just kept the door to his room open to let the background noise in and hear the news, which seemed to be only channel their TV ever tuned into for the past week or so. No doubt Rika was just waiting for the announcement that Strega has been purged from Daitomi.
It really set her on edge that a bunch of homicidal maniacs were running loose and their momentum just didn't seem to slow down at all. She'd always check if he kept the small frying pans stowed away in his school bag, whenever he leaves for class and always walks him to Shinka Academy, which was arguably near their house, whenever she could. The frying pans were there as a weapon for when she couldn't be around to protect him, not that he needed her protection but still.
Shou heard the footsteps down the hallway and soon his sister's head peeked into his room. Rika's hair was disheveled and her bent pair of glasses were on her nose, tilting to one side of her face. She was supposed to be going to class looking like that?
"I'm heading out for class, Shou. I'll be back in 3 hours. Are you going anywhere for the afternoon?"
"I don't think so, sis. It depends, I might get a text or something from a friend or something."
"Okay then, but be careful alright? If anything comes up don't be afraid to call me because I'm not afraid to just storm out of class. Lock the house up if and when you leave...in fact, I'll lock up the house even while you're in here."
"But-"
"No buts, a bunch of psychos are out there and I'd rest easier knowing you're at least safe."
"Fine."
"Good. Now I'll be off."
It was clear on her face that Rika did not want to leave the house and Shou alone. Though she was probably taking this a little too far. She was overprotective of him after all, so it was also very natural and somewhat expected. He heard her footsteps down the hall soften and then heard the front door open and close. His overprotective sister was out of the house, he had no one to talk to and nothing to do for the day.
Shou lay down on his bed and picked his phone up. There weren't any notifications at all, no new messages nor missed calls. He turned on the Blipper act and as usual, the Blipper feeds were filled with all the thoughts on the recent news about those mysterious corpse piles popping up in Daitomi. There wasn't anything new there which made him resort to the web browser and research whatever random topic came to his mind first.
Somehow Shou wanted someone to contact him, to ask him to hang out and all. Otherwise this would be one long afternoon spent browsing the internet or something along those lines.
