Things To See In Iburi:

"Thoughtfulness, dedication to customers' needs and meticulous attention to detail are all things that Soyokaze Touya, a ryotei in the centre of Iburi, is known for. A luxurious and somewhat exclusive resturant, it is famed for managing to be a quiet, tranquil place despite its location in the noisy city centre as well as for its food."

Paradise had kept the Oubai clan business, Soyokaze Touya, as a building inside the city centre. A restaurant needed customers, but this scene had no people. One could walk from the train station to its doors and not meet a soul - none of which could be seen in the entry hall behind dimly-tinted doors. A counter was seven meters away, with chairs and a pot plant on the right. One who went inside would see it was a hospital. The hygenically-scented air fought off infections and strongly made it difficult to breathe. Being a hospital, the walls were white, and so were the bright lights.

Kouchisei hadn't wanted to leave. He'd found comfort here; his mother was close and the fake appearance on the outside would keep people away. He was a quiet man, and his mother had wanted him to bring friends to visit. Regardless, it was hard to change and open himself up to make them. This hospital was a nice place, he thought.

Reizo wasn’t sure what was more annoying: the urge to try and tug the skirt down lower on his legs or the familiar sense of dread that’d settled into his stomach. He was used to it, but combined with the outfit and the new sensation of fear, true fear, crawling up his spine gave it all gave him pause. The place was creepy without the chatter of patrons inside or the aroma of food wafting out of it, and the shadow-things did nothing to help to stymie his apprehension.

No better way to break through the fear and doubt than be jumping in head-first, and after a sidelong glance at the others, that’s exactly what he did. No use in waiting around for them all, especially since teams were apparently being decided on and they’d all be following soon after. A deep breath for courage, one more long look at the almost mesmerizing swirls on the door, and he plunged through.

And was greeted by the sickly sweet disinfected air of a hospital. He gaped down at the outfit, it all making some sort of inane sense now, and walked a little further in, trying to ignore the cold finger of fear probing up his spine. Beyond the sharp clacks of his boots (a nurse in boots, nice) on the pristine tile floor, it was deathly silent.
