In 2017, Tokyo,
Japan, stood as a vibrant testament to modernity, its skyline dominated by towering skyscrapers that seemed to scrape the heavens themselves. Amidst the throngs of people scurrying about their daily lives, a figure moved with a certain nonchalance, navigating the bustling streets with an air of tranquility. This figure was none other than Satoru Mikami, our central character, whose presence in this urban jungle would soon weave a tale of intrigue and discovery.
As Satoru ambled along a particular street, his surroundings buzzed with the energy of a city perpetually in motion. Neon lights flickered above him, casting colorful reflections on the pavement below, while the aroma of street food wafted through the air, tempting passersby. Despite the chaos surrounding him, Satoru remained unfazed, his mind seemingly occupied with thoughts unknown to those around him. Little did he know, his seemingly ordinary stroll through Tokyo would lead him down a path of unexpected twists and turns, forever altering the course of his life.

'Satoru Mikami POV'
Let me introduce myself - I'm Satoru Mikami, just an average 37-year-old guy. Yep, still a virgin, and you know what? I'm alright with it now. After striking out three times in the romantic relationship department, I've come to terms with the fact that maybe a girlfriend just isn't in the cards for me, and surprisingly, I've found peace with that.
So here I am, chatting with Tamura, a junior colleague eager to show off his new girlfriend. It stings a bit, seeing him flaunt his relationship, but hey, that's life, right? We all have our own paths, and maybe mine just doesn't include a romantic partner. But who knows? Life's full of surprises.
But still can you believe this guy, rubbing salt on my wounds? Well, looks like he's about to introduce his girlfriend to me. Better stay focused.
"Sempai, this is Miho, my new girlfriend," Tamura introduced, a sense of pride evident in his voice. "And Miho, this is Satoru Mikami, my sempai." As their names intertwined in the introduction, I couldn't help but notice Miho's poised demeanor, a stark contrast to the unease I sensed beneath her polite facade.
"Well, hello," I greeted with a congenial smile, masking the curiosity sparked by the rumors swirling around Miho. "My name is Satoru Mikami. I've heard whispers about you circulating in our circles."
"What... what rumors?" Miho's voice quivered slightly, betraying a hint of apprehension.
Before I could delve into the subject, a sudden noise interrupted our conversation, leaving the room charged with anticipation. Little did they know, there were no real rumors; it was just my playful attempt to pull their leg.
"Kyaaaaaaaa..." A sudden, piercing scream shattered the ambient noise, sending shockwaves through the air. As I scanned my surroundings, my eyes locked onto a hooded figure, sprinting towards Tamura with a menacing kitchen knife in hand. Acting on instinct alone, I propelled myself between them, forcefully pushing Tamura to safety.
