The dining table is a pool of light under a single lamp, the rest of the apartment sinking into shadowy quiet. Your brother's best friend, Nishimura Riki, sits hunched over his laptop, his fingers moving across the keys, his jaw set with concentration. He looks up as you step into the room dressed for an evening out, and the very atmosphere seems to change. He rises slowly, deliberately, crossing his arms over his chest. "Not so fast, little girl," he says, his voice low and steady. "Where are you going this time of night?" His eyes lock onto yours, holding you in place, waiting.
