Ilaya is sitting in bed while pondering about what happened a while ago. She finished her bathing while feeling rattled inside, she wipes her body carefully, expecting that a red mist will appear again. She's alert the entire time in the bathroom and didn't manage to enjoy her bath.
Now, Ilaya is starting to be perplexed by this happenings. She had just confirmed things by experimenting last night, now, she had to figure out things again
'I expected that my body is abnormal, or maybe I'm the abnormal one. But I didn't expect this visual abnormality to emerge from me. I thought that it's only an internal strangeness'
She thought about what caused the red mist to emerge. She had a power without a doubt, uncontrollable it may be, it's still a power. Her power of senses can be triggered by the whispers and murmurs, but it's also the other way around. If she used her power to enhance one of her senses, it triggered the white noises in her head and all the senses that she had would follow suit. That leads to a sensory overload that injects her with an enormous amount of information that's too much to bear. That leads her to feel like her head is going to explode from pain, not to mention that the whispers in her head turns into a screaming fest that worsened her state even further.
So, it can be said that the whispers in her head and her senses are connected, but what about the horrifying pain in her heart that she experienced last night? The feeling of her heart slowly burning is strange as well. It's not connected to her senses as she already experienced the three times that her senses went out of control. Then, the morning after what had happened last night, some red mist appeared from her
'And if I am correct, I did see a colorful motes of lights the moment that I woke up this morning. I thought that it's only a side effect of my experiment that night, but now that a smokey red mist appeared on me, it's not that simple anymore'
I have a feeling that something strange happened to my heart other than just hurting, and is now showing its effect. The motes of lights and the red mist that I saw is probably the manifestation of that heartache that I felt last night
She thought of trying to make the red mist appear again but shakes her head.
"I better stop experimenting for now, I don't know if something strange will happen again, and last night attempt is too much already"
Though she said that, her mind keeps wandering about her new power, or if it's a power to begin with. Her curiosity is nagging at her to explore this new aspect of her. Then, she stands up, get her backpack and goes out of her room. She walked downstairs to start her search again
'I have more better things to do than courting death, like finding clues. It may be an aimless search but I'm that desperate. Until I searched that old house, I'll look everywhere to find something related to me'
She then goes out of the hotel and started her journey again
…
In the city of Chuo, a man in a white shirt and blue jeans while wearing a hat is walking in the street with a strange gait. The man looked at the sunset that heralds the impending night with teary eyes. The man has a dazed expression as he follows a woman in the distance. The man is the spy that that the Yakuza boss tasked him of observing Ilaya
The man then saw Ilaya in the distance entered a convenience store. He then stopped walking and leaned on the wall of a building, then, looked at his trembling knees. His all lower body hurts from walking from morning to afternoon from his unintentional tour of the city. He remembered yesterday that he had finished touring the half of Chou ward, and this day, he finally completed it
The man then screamed on his mind
'I can't do this anymore! I'll have to report to Boss and suggest to add more men to tail that woman!"
He feels that if this continues, he'll be able to tour the whole of Tokyo through walking! The man then massages his thighs as he waits for Ilaya to exit the store. Before the man had the time to take a breather, Ilaya emerged from the entrance of the store with a paper bag in her hand. She then walked towards a park in the distance. The man then started to walk again while glaring at Ilaya hatefully
…
As Ilaya walk towards the park, she feels tired all over and her feet is hurting so much. At least she manages to finished her search in this city, and now, her next target is the Minato ward.
Her searching changed from carpet search to looking for main roads as looking and entering streets would be futile and time consuming. As long as she feels familiarity or deja Vu, only then she will do a carpet searching of the area. Her next search will be delayed for a bit because her work will starts tomorrow.
Ilaya then reached the park then sit at bench and starts eating her dinner. While she eats, she's counting her remaining money, there's little of it left. She thought that the money will be able to last until she starts at her job, but it's only enough for three (saving mode) meals now. She cannot afford to stay at the hotel tonight and needs to leave the place soon.
'Whatever, as long as I have food, I can sleep anywhere, I even woke up in the middle of the street so sleeping there again will be no sweat. Hehe, I'll take a shower first at my room before I leave the hotel. That way, I'm not going to be smelly when I go to work tomorrow'
She then finished her dinner, then walked out of the park and finds a cab to leave the place. She arrived at the hotel at 6:45pm and then goes to her room and took a shower. She then cleaned the place and looked around at the place that sheltered her when she first woke up. She then left the room and goes to the receptionist to turn the key to the room and got out of the hotel
When she was outside of the hotel, she glanced around and saw people going to their homes
'Ohh! I can feel a familiar feeling, the feeling of not knowing where to go'
With that thought, she chuckles sadly and walked aimlessly, looking around from time to time. She saw many beautiful buildings while searching for a sleeping spot. As she walked, she ended up in the park where she first rested when she started searching, and also the place where she felt a killing intent last night
Ilaya then enters the park and curiously looks for the place where the person who wants her dead is previously hiding. She walks through the trees and reached it, she then trace her sight to her previous spot when she felt the malice, and it match
Ilaya then sit at the base of a tree, and leaned on it as she looked the spot where she was last time. She then hugged her backpack and rest
"I hope I doesn't rain, or I'm definitely going to feel even more miserable"
She then gently closed her eyes as she listened the sound of the wind rustling the leaves and the sound of the city, soon, she slept
