January 5th, 1896
After he met with Setsura that day, Akito's thoughts remained on her. He knew how crazy it was driving him, so he decided to accept some other work.
It's not unusual for him to receive work from the theater group.
However, quite some time has passed since he got them. After all, everybody understands the current situation with the murder cases. Nobody would think to drag him away from all that.
He's hardly had any time to do any additional jobs; there is practice in between too. He decided to accept the job offer since it's been a while and the fact that Akito realized it was on his way from where Setsura usually stopped by.
He stumbled upon her by chance and figured out that she was investigating this area. Akito watched her for a long time,
and even wanted to take her home to discuss this recent case. However, her home now is Yang's place isn't it? He probably shouldn't walk her all the way to the door then.
