But...
"Shimanaga and the others on the first floor... Why has their noise suddenly ceased?"
Tsukishima Risa remembered it vividly.
At first, the noise from Shimanaga's group was loud.
Thud, thud, thud—the sounds seemed as if they were tearing the house down.
Now, everything had quieted down.
To be precise, other than the sound of her footsteps pattering now, she couldn't hear anything else.
Not a trace of miscellaneous noise.
"What on earth was happening?"
This unsettling feeling made Tsukishima Risa's limbs feel cold.
She swallowed hard, hurriedly running back the way she came.
But—
The moment Tsukishima Risa took a step, hurried footsteps suddenly echoed from behind her!
Tsukishima Risa's arms trembled as she turned her flashlight around.
Behind her was the corridor, where the only thing visible was the wall.
Yes... completely empty.
As if the sound of the footsteps had been a trick.
