บท 308: We Are Here For The Treasure Hunt

Kimura Kazuki laughed when he heard the question. He said, "I happened to be nearby and there's a ruckus here so I came over."

This answer caused Makoto Honda to take a suspicious glance at him. Only firefighters were around here, so how blind did one have to be to not see anyone coming over? There were plenty of trees here on Kanayama, well-trimmed and neatly ordered. It would make noises whenever someone passed by so there was nowhere to hide.

The thought made Makoto Honda shudder. The arrival of this young man was not notified to him by those firefighters. He was wearing a headset after all… Moreover, he only noticed the young man's presence when the boy entered his sight. He heard nothing at all of his arrival.

Makoto Honda inhaled lightly, creepiness crawling through his skin all of a sudden. He thought of all the lore he heard about Kanayama. Goosebumps sprang through his arms.
