Night 58: M111-M120 Hallway
F19.
F19. He repeated the number to himself over and over again even though he still had the note that Shiina had written for him clutched in his hand. F19. The female blocks...well, it was probably a good thing he'd gotten lost there that one night, huh? Made looking for her easier.
Man, what was he doing? He wasn't Hazama, and yet Hazama's memories compelled him to go after her every time he even though of her name; as much as Akumetsu had tried to detach itself from normal society, the fact still remained that Nagasawa Shiina had managed to worm her way into Hazama's heart far more than he'd ever admitted to.
And of course now Niikura got to deal with the aftermath.
The soldiers had taken Edward some time after dinner, but he'd hardly protested even when one of them advanced on him, intending to prevent him from interfering: someone was counting on him to still be in one piece, so he couldn't do anything rash until then.
And he'd given Mike his room number. Mike would be coming here, hopefully still human because otherwise he'd have some explaining to do. He could...probably zip out now and get Shiina while he was waiting; it wasn't too far at all. Or he could wait and then go with Mike. But...how many times had he kept her waiting? Maybe just once, a Shou could show up before the tension got thick enough to cut with a knife.
Niikura groaned to himself as he picked up his flashlight and headed out the door. Stupid Hazama, making everything so complicated.
