With that, Kosei left. The nurse served dinner before leaving. I was all alone in the room. It was pouring outside. The city lights, along with the rain, gave a beautiful view. I was enjoying the view while having dinner when suddenly, my eyes landed on my phone. I think I should call her one more time. I give her a call, and she picks up. But there is only silence on the other side.
Tanjiro: Hello? Sol? I need to talk to you about something.
Caller: Do you remember me?
That voice… It was a male voice. and I immediately recognized it. The same one I heard in the elite class
Tanjiro: What did you do to Sol?
Caller: Now do you understand the pain of losing someone you love?
I could feel his wrath growing.
Tanjiro: You'd better not do that to her. Even a scratch, and that will be the end of you.
Caller: Oh! Fiesty are we? If you want her, come and get her yourself! 20 minutes; your time starts now...
After that, he cut the call. I couldn't think straight. I tracked down his number. Once I got the address, I ran out of the hospital, got into my car, and started driving through the dark and stormy night. Finally, I reached the front of an extremely tall yet old building.
I knew I would never be able to find her in time. A large gate and fence, which were covered with twigs and leaves, surrounded the area. It let out a screeching noise when I opened it. Inside, the building was surrounded by outgrown bushes and graves. Graves of those students and teachers.
The smell of blood filled the air. Holding my breath, I went inside the building. There were cobwebs and spiders almost everywhere I looked. The sound of a squeaking rat could be heard.
Tanjiro: Hello? Is anyone there?
Mysterious voice: Welcome! You have 10 minutes remaining to find Sol. To find her, you must answer my question. 'The more there is, the less you see'. Come to me...
