Hiro got to The Metal Dragon Pub and unlocked the door. As he stepped inside, he saw Akio in the stockroom doing inventory. Hiro greeted Akio and asked how business was doing. Akio replied, "We're up for the month again." Hiro replied, "That's good to hear."
Akio then asked how the last few days have been. Hiro said, "Good, just a few things have been weird, I guess." Akio asked, "What?" Hiro replied, "I keep seeing a blue light that sometimes turns red at the end of the alley next door. And when I went past the cemetery this morning, I got a very bad sinking feeling when I went by. I looked around from the front gate, but I didn't see anything unusual."231Please respect copyright.PENANAfg9sioAJ5Q
Akio replied, "Well, the light you see might just be some new gizmo someone installed somewhere. You know, technology is advancing very fast these days. And the bad feeling you got might just be a bad spirit hanging around. You need to remember that this land and town are very old, and there is bound to be something here."
Hiro nodded, taking in Akio's words. He knew that there was a lot of history in Tsuchi-mura and that sometimes, that history could manifest itself in strange ways. He couldn't shake the feeling that there was something more to the blue light and the cemetery, but he didn't know what it could be.
As the day went on, Hiro couldn't help but keep an eye out for the blue light. He didn't see it again, but the memory of it lingered in the back of his mind. He also couldn't shake the feeling that something was off about the cemetery. He knew that he would have to investigate further to find out what was going on.
