บท 397: Do You Wish For One, My Love?

"Is he still there?"

Sighing softly, Hisaki looked at the light art installations near her. She was sitting on a bench not far from the entrance to the rooftop. The chilly night air caused her to shudder.

Hisaki didn't want to face Nishikawa Takiji again. Even though the idea of witnessing his downfall was intriguing, she still suppressed the urge. It was enough for Heisuke to go and watch it.

Tonight would mark the end of her decades-long nightmare.

Sometimes, Hisaki couldn't believe that the day Nishikawa Takiji was apprehended would come. After all, he was nearly invincible in her previous life.

"I should call Mari soon," whispered Hisaki to herself, the lights of the installations were reflected in her eyes, "I wonder what she's doing recently."

The last time Hisaki saw Mari was during her wedding day. More than a month had passed. They weren't able to talk much due to Hisaki being occupied with the marriage ceremony and reception.
