Through there isn't anything special with my death.
Actually a lot of people have died and dissapeared.
Even furnerals have become an everyday sight.
18th october, Tuesday, Futsumetsu (Buddha's death, unlucky day)
Ozaki Kyouko's wake
R: Eh?
Is it alright if we don't help with the wake?
Woman: We females from the neighbourhood will do it!
I'm sorry, but we'll be leaving the account books and the office work to you!!
Page 9
Well then!!
Sfx: sosokusa sosokusa
Sfx: batan
R: Why?!
K: It's an infectious disease!
As we are working in the hospital we are the most dangerous, aren't we?
They are saying, that someone like us is not to prepare and serve people food.
R: Is…
That so…
Ozaki's mother (OM): Hey, you all!
What are you doing here all carefree?
You have to work upon your own initiative!
I also don't want common people to go into our house and touch things as they want!!!
R: Bu… But
OM: Well, go already to the kitchen!!
Sato (S) : It's not like we aren your servants!!!
Page 11
OM: You seem to forget from whom you earn your wages!!
S: I did receive my "renumeration" as a "nurse" of the "clinic"!
Nurse: Sato-chan!
S: But I am definitely not a servant!
Sfx: ho ho ho
OM: How are you talking to me!!
I will have Toshio to make leave!!!
S: And what about it?!
There are enough clinics who want nurses!!!
Page 12
Sfx: gyo
Even when Yuuki-chan dissapeared, the doctor did not worry at all.
With that, I am already thinking that it's fine to…
Already fine with…
Uwaaaaa!!!
R: Ever since that day, Sato-chan stopped going to work.
Three days thereafter her retirement has been mailed

O: Izaki-kun retired?
Why?
K: You really do seem to have not a clue about it.
Doctor, do you know that Yuuki-chan has disappeared?
O: Shomi-kun went missing…?

It was when my head was full with Kyouko….
Sfx: gacha

To Ozaki [name、Toshio?]
K: It's no use, even if I were to blame you now, but!
For Sato-chan you were behaving very cold regarding Yuuki-san.
And then she couldn't endure the attitude of your mother!
O: It's my fault?
K: That's what I intend to say!!
Did you not hear it like that?
Page 15
I can also not consent to it!!
But as I feel for with you, I will not say something like I am leaving!!!
Sfx: pon
Sfx: batan
Page 16
Even at such a situation, the doctor's eyes showed no despair
I thought I'll try to trust the doctor.
The shrine
That's right everything save the shrine will dissapear

Two days after the wake of the young wife, 20th october
Seishin (Se): Eh?
Mirukami-san has died?
Wife: Yes….
It seems his liver has been crushed
The furneral service is also already over
I am sorry for keeping quiet about this. It's a will from my husband.
Tsurumi-san has?!
Page 18
Tsurumi: The shrine is troubled right now, therefore tell me to hospitalisate in the Kyousai clinic…. (unsure)
Then, when I am dead, I leave the furneral service to you…
Se: Is...
that so...
I will then visit the burial.
Wife: Yes…
Thank you for everything until now.
Sfx: gacha
I have to report this to father.

It seems that many are recently going to this Ebuchi Clinic when the symtoms showed.
It's like the patients are building up some hope
Only a little bit left…
