Shota Yamada is panicking now.

He just squatted in the toilet for a while, and all his colleagues left the store and locked the door!

Leave him alone in the empty, dark cowherd shop.

The sirens outside didn't stop.

And there are rumored murderers wandering.

It's no wonder if you don't panic!

To make matters worse, he didn't know where to put his phone.

I can't even make a phone call to a colleague.

It's really a house leak that happened to rain overnight - unlucky to get home!

But from another point of view, the doors and windows of the store are locked, so it's always okay to spend a night like this.

It's just a little harder to sleep.

Shota Yamada comforted himself in his heart.

Because the power supply was some distance away from him, he walked over in the dark like this, and his heart was even more panicked.

And turning on the lights could make it a potential target for murderers.

I just didn't turn on the lights.

I'm going to stay up all night with my clothes on the booth.

"Click! Click! ”

But at this moment, near the back door of [Fantasy Dream], there were two or three harsh noises.

It seemed to be the sound of some kind of sharp object colliding with glass.

Shota Yamada's hairs stood on end.

No way..... No way..... No way......

He prayed hard in his heart.

It's just that I'm thinking too much!

It must be so!

Unfortunately, the noise has become more and more harsh.

Shota Yamada remembered that there was a large glass window at the back door.

It's not impossible to break the glass and turn it into the store!

The more Shota Yamada thought about it, the more panicked he became.

Hurriedly flipped off the card seat and lay in the corner, not daring to make a sound.

Although this gesture is a little embarrassing, it is better than losing a small life, right?

It's "Click!" again. "A bang.

The glass shattered.

Shota Yamada's little heart also mentioned his throat at once.

Maybe...... Where did the feral cats come from?

Or a thief who wants to steal some money?

Shota Yamada knew that his thoughts were tantamount to self-consolation and self-deception.

But when it comes to this, what can he do but comfort himself?

In the pitch-black [Dream], it suddenly fell silent again.

It seemed to be just his heavy breathing and the sound of his heartbeat intensifying.

According to the time calculation, it is likely that the other party has already climbed in through the window.

"Toot-toot-"

However, it was in the silence and darkness that a rhythmic bell suddenly sounded.

Shota Yamada finally knew where his phone had been left - he certainly couldn't mistake the rhythm of the ringtone.

"Toot-toot-"

The unanswered cell phone kept ringing.

The lit screen became the only source of light in the darkness.

Footsteps finally came.

Of course, Shota Yamada could no longer comfort himself, but he just cowered in a dark corner, not daring to move, let alone gasping hard.

Fearing that the sound of breathing would reveal where he was.

Meanwhile.

A sweet smell wafted through the air.

- That's the smell of blood!

Please, don't go my way.....

It's just that most things in the world are counterproductive.

The dull sound of footsteps, clearer and closer.

The bell stops.

Shota Yamada could probably guess that the other party was walking in the direction where the mobile phone ringtone came.

Silence once again shrouded in the dream.

Silence like death.

Shota Yamada's heart was so tense that it almost jumped out of his throat, and a faint feeling of suffocation permeated his chest.

Suddenly, the bell rang again.

He was already too nervous to do anything, but he was so frightened that he trembled, and there was an inconspicuous sound.

Only this time, the ringing didn't last long before it came to an abrupt end.

"Hi~"

"You ..... Want to enjoy my collection too? ”

Someone picked up the phone.

Shota Yamada's whole body stiffened.

And his next sentence made him feel like he was falling into an ice cave.

"Looks like there's another audience here!"

There was a smile hidden in the words.

————————————

Open the door to Fantasy.

Yamada-kun...... Are you there? Yamada-kun! ”

Hitomi Amamiya called out to Shota Yamada.

Hope to hear his response.

It's just that in the dark shop, there is no sound, and there is a suffocating silence.

"Is he gone?"

Hitomi Amamiya breathed a sigh of relief.

If that's the case, of course, it's even better, at least it won't be life-threatening.

It's just that Aono on the side snorted and muttered.

"Blood ......"

"Blood!?"

Amamiya Hitomi immediately realized something, her expression tightened, and her brows furrowed.

Smell it carefully, but you don't smell anything.

"Aono-kun, are you sure?"

"Hmm."

Aono nodded slightly.

The improvement of attributes will also enhance his senses.

"Call the police first!"

Hitomi Amamiya's face was very ugly, and she thought of a very bad situation.

But still gritted his teeth and made such a decision.

"Hello! Hello! ”

In the silence, a cacophony suddenly sounded.

"Can you hear me?"

Looking at the light in the darkness, it was a mobile phone screen.

"It's Yamada-kun's phone."

Hitomi Amamiya was quick to determine this.

"Don't turn on the lights~ It's boring to turn on the lights!"

The voice on the phone suddenly became serious, as if it was a warning.

"Save ..... Save ....."

At the same time, on the other end of the phone, someone said weakly.

Amamiya Hitomi's hands clenched so that his knuckles turned white, and this was Shota Yamada's voice.

Unexpectedly, they really hit this most dangerous situation.

"I like black, so ..... Don't turn on the lights! ”

The man didn't care that Shota Yamada's identity was recognized, and he showed his preference as if talking to himself.

Aono walked in the direction of his phone.

Hitomi Amamiya hinted with his eyes not to act rashly, but Aono ignored him.

"As for calling the police, it's up to you, anyway, when they come, my last treasure will be completed!"

"Would you like to appreciate the whole process of how it was made?"

It's obvious what he means by "treasure".

"Okay."

Aono replied briskly.

At the same time, I have walked to the side of the phone.

On the screen, you are in the interface of video chat.

It was pitch black, and I couldn't see the picture over there.

However, the camera with a red light indicates that the other party can see them.

In this way, he found the two people who had entered the [Dream].

And when Aono's face appeared, there was a silence on the other side.

"Huh..... Haha....."

Then came the sound of maniacal laughter.

"Perfect! Your face is a perfect masterpiece! If I peel it off, that's the last thing I'll treasure! ”

"I've changed my mind, we're ...... Make a deal. ”

"I will give him back to you, and you will come to me."

The killer himself didn't really think that his deal would be accepted.

Who would be willing to trade their lives for someone else they don't know very well?

It's just that.....

Aono smiled.

Smiled brightly.

Even in the dark, his smile was brighter than the sun.

"Deal!"
