*Hey...have you heard?"

"You mean what happened to that goth chick, Misachiko? Yeah. I heard."

"Yep. They found her body in a cemetery. She been murdered under mysterious circumstances..."

"Do you think it has something to do with the rumors regarding the Blood Moon...?"

"Could be...? Do you remember that the blood moon is connected to the Dead One...?"

"You mean that school boy who was bullied by his classmates and died? Holy shit..."

"Yeah. He may have something to do with it..."

"So freaky...But why is he doing this...this is above revenge. This is murder..."

"It doesn't matter. He been bullied and killed. He blames the world. So anyone by now could be a target. Maybe you. Maybe me. That's why they call him...The Dead One..."

*Hiroshi's Pov*

Well shit...

So everyone around Ikebukuro is making up rumors about Kamishiro's...well Misachiko's death and liability of it being the center of the news.

Now they're telling stories that Tomoki Tanaka...the Dead One...has something to do with it...?

The Rumor: Every once a red moon is form. A spree of disappearances and murders takes place in the summer of ikebukuro. The streets are no longer safe. People are saying...the Dead One is killing these people.

But no...

It wasn't Tomoki who was doing this...

It was all Hannya...

Yuma: Man. People sure do love spreading rumors. Such a shame Kamishiro ain't around no more.

Seiya: If anything. She would've tried to debunk those rumors and figure them out on her own. Anyway. Speaking of her, did she say anything to you before her death?

Me: Yes...But before I tell you guys. Why did you came to Auntie's cafe?

Seiya:...I have another client I have to meet with.

Me:...Does it have something to do with the police?

That situation with Bon almost got us all in prison or at least sent to juvenile hall for being minors.

Thank God, I'm not 18 yet...

Although I will be in an couple of months...

If I survive that is...

Seiya: Don't worry it's none of that.

Yuma: We decided we're going to have some fun with this one~! You in?

If it beats feeling depressed over  Manaka and Kamishiro. I guess it'll be fine.

Me: Sure...

*Later*

We were now in a high class club. Himeno was on a couch while having his feet on the table giving off that Yakuza vibe as usual. Yamada was holding his baseball bat with sharp teeth grin. Meanwhile, I was on my laptop digging up information on our latest victim...I mean "client".

It was a man in his late thirties. Wearing a grey business suit with short black hair and dark brown eyes. He had an jittery frightened expression that Himeno found amusing.

Seiya: So Higachi-san...You remember what you owe us? Correct?

Higachi: Y-Yes Himeno-kun!

Yuma: Sama.
