陸遠真（りく とうま）に囲われていた女は失踪癖があった。 そのうえ見つかるたびに彼女は、如月清夏（きさらぎ さやか）の仕業だというのだった。 西村乃愛（にしむら のあ）が九度目の失踪を遂げた時、遠真は清夏をサウナルームに閉じ込めた。 室内の温度は容赦なく上昇していく。 60℃...... 70℃...... 80℃...... 清夏の顔は真っ赤に染まり、蒸し焼きのように息ができない。 その様子を前にしても、遠真は指に嵌めた指輪を弄びながら低く問い詰めた。 「これが最後のチャンスだ。乃愛をどこに隠した？」

When my wife, Katherine Johnson, and her childhood sweetheart, Zack Wilson, were on an overseas vacation, they somehow went missing. All they left for me was a newborn baby born of their affair. 20 years later, I make a post about my son, Wade, passing the exam and joining the police force. Unexpectedly, Katherine and Zack return to the country and decide to sue me. At the prosecutor's stand, Zack sports a slicked-back hairstyle and can be seen wearing a smart-looking suit. The things he says, however, are very rude. "Many years ago, Katherine and I got married after she got a divorce. She then gave birth to a son for me. Harry, who was jealous of our happiness, stole Wade from us! "We've been looking for Wade over the past 20 years, and yet Harry refuses to return him to us! As Wade's biological parents, we have the right to demand him back!" Katherine glares at me angrily as well. "Harry, did you steal Wade simply because you're infertile?" The court hearing is streamed live on various platforms. The viewers are enraged, to say the least. They begin bashing me in the comment section. "To think that he actually stole someone else's kid just because he doesn't have any kids of his own!" "He's the reason that kid was separated from his actual family! What a disgusting, vile man! He must return the custody to the kid's biological parents!" But when Wade does get summoned to the court, everyone is left shell-shocked.

The registration date was May 20, three years ago. I realized that was why he never showed up those seven times. He was already married to someone else.
