Virgil still felt as if he was in a dream, utterly bewildered.
Just the day before yesterday, he was an ordinary person, and the most bizarre thing in his life was a madman barging into a nearby school and shooting children.
But now, his entire worldview had been almost completely destroyed and reshaped.
The Paranormal Hospital that treated curses!
It really existed!
"I still don't understand," Virgil said. "What special talent do I have that you value so much?"
Was he... really that important?
"Even more important than you think," Klein said, looking down the corridor where his sister had gone missing. "But recruiting you also poses risks for us."
"Risks?"
Klein did not directly answer his question but said, "The red masks I gave you earlier, you received them, right?"
"Yes, I've got them."
The first thing Klein did upon entering the hospital was to hand two red masks to Virgil.
