Chapter 1: Got a Sister, a House, and Healthy Parents

Dim.

Gloomy.

Weird.

When Kitahara Shinichi opened his eyes, he found that he was in such an environment. He also found that his hands and feet were bound tightly. He couldn't move at all.

Surprisingly, in the face of circ.u.mstances similar to straying into a horror movie scene, he wasn't even frightened. It didn't even cross his mind that he may have been kidnapped.

It seemed that this kind of thing had occurred many times. Unconsciously, he became accustomed to it.

He thought confusedly:

“Who am I?”

"Where am I?"

"What am I doing?"

Three philosophic questions of a traveler emerged in Kitahara Shinichi's mind. But he couldn't answer any of them.

Shinichi couldn't help but look around at the surroundings to confirm where he was at. He then pondered his next course of action

As his eyes better adjusted to the gloom, he could make out more details, he was thrilled because this dark and gloomy room was full of torture tools. Sickles, cutters, knives and all kinds of sharp tools he couldn't name.

And these torture tools…

All of them were stained with blood!

"Is this a place to slaughter pigs?"

Shinichi looked confused.

But immediately, he felt something was wrong.

After all, he, who was tied up, is a man, not a pig.

"Sss."

Suddenly, strange footsteps came.

He suddenly became tense!

"Who's coming?"

Shinichi hadn't developed a strong mind even after being exposed to a few kidnapping events. Panic had slowly begun to take over his emotions. He subconsciously struggled to get up, but his limbs were tied up. So, he could only barely raise his head to see who was coming.

He could barely make out two strangers shrouded in darkness appearing on his periphery. They both wore masks and he couldn't make out their features. From the slits of their masks their eyes radiated a ruthless intent.

As if in their eyes, he, who was tied to the table, was really a pig waiting to be slaughtered.

Shinichi was completely panicked. He struggled against his binds with greater intensity.

However, when the two approached, he widened his eyes.

They're actually……

"Ah!" As the horror overwhelmed him, Shinichi suddenly sat up. His face was pale. Trickles of cold sweat ran down his forehead, and his eyes looked panicked.

After a while, he realized that he had a nightmare.

The window by the bed was opened. The sky was bright. But it looked a bit overcast, seeming to rain. The cold breeze blew over.

"Huff……huff……" Shinichi wiped the cold sweat off. He hadn't had a nightmare for a long time, but he couldn't think that a rare one would be so scary. It directly woke him up from the dream.

But strangely, after he woke up, he couldn't recall the nightmare he had a moment before. He only remembered that the content seemed terrible, but he had forgotten the specifics.

Shinichi thought about it for a while, but he couldn't recall it. He then chose to simply ignore it.

"Anyway, it's just a dream. It's normal to forget after waking up……" He shook his head and said.

However, though he couldn't recall the content of the nightmare, the memories about his past successively emerged in his mind.

I, Kitahara Shinichi, a world traveler, got a sister, a house, and healthy parents. Send me the money!

Though the description above was short, it's enough to summarize the 16-year life of Kitahara Shinichi since he was born into this world.

He then glanced at the clock on the desk. It's already 7 o'clock, time to change clothes. So he got off the bed.

Today was April 1st, the day the semester started. As a freshman representative of Johoku High School, he had to give a speech on stage. So he decided to go to school earlier to prepare for it, lest he would be too nervous on stage.

“Knock. Knock.”

A sudden knock at the door shocked Shinichi. He turned his head and saw a gloomy shadow from the bottom of the door.

Then, the voice came.

"Shinichi, have you got up? Time for breakfast."

"I know. I'm changing clothes."

Hearing the voice of his mother, Keiko, Shinichi was a bit relieved. It's probably because of the nightmare that made him feel a little bit weird, as if something bad would happen.

However, it wasn't a prominent feeling, so Shinichi didn't go deep into it. His mother, who stood outside the door, seemed to have heard his response and left. The shadow standing outside the door went away.

After changing the clothes, Shinichi looked in front of the mirror and combed his messy hair. After it became neater, he went out of the room.

His parents and sister were already sitting in the living room.

"Shinichi."

Seeing him go to the living room, his mother waved and said with a loving smile on her face.

“You look spiritless recently. I made some meat porridge in the morning to fuel your body. After all, from today, you are a high school student. You may feel pressured from all the studying, so you need to get more nutrition ”

"Fine."

Shinichi casually nodded to greet his father on the side before sitting down.

The father of Kitahara Shinichi, Kitahara Muraichiro, was a surgeon. He's currently the Director of Surgery Department at the First Hospital of Chiba City. He has been a doctor for decades. He's very experienced. He has saved countless patients. He also had a high reputation in the hospital.

And his mother, Kitahara Keiko, was a housewife who usually stayed at home to take care of family matters. However, she had been a professional nurse for several years before she got married, so she occasionally helped her husband deal with some hospital affairs.

“Brother, your hair looks like a bird's nest. It's like an Afro.” Sitting next to him was his sister, Kitahara Rinka, who had a pair of ponytails. She smirked cutely, as if she saw something funny.

“Really? I will fix it later.”

Shinichi rubbed his head as he didn't really care. His sister was only nine years old, and she was still a little girl. Kids at this age tended to laugh at anything they see. Just because his hair was in a mess, she giggled so happily.

But seeing her laugh, Shinichi's bad taste came up again. He picked up a piece of meat from the bowl with a cute rabbit pattern in front of Rinka, threw it into his mouth, and ate it.

Sure enough, what he did immediately angered this kid.

“Ah, bad brother. Don't take my meat!” Rinka bulged her lovely little face roundly. She raised her fat little hands, as if she wanted to scare him. She looked furious.

"Ha."

Seeing this, Shinichi was finally satisfied. Teasing his own sister was part of his daily routine.

But every time Shinichi saw Rinka eating a big bowl of meat with her little mouth, he's always amazed. The appet.i.te of my little sister is too exaggerated, right?

To this end, his parents had also checked her many times, but the results of those tests all showed that Rinka wasn't sick. She's very healthy. The reason why she ate so much was simply that she had a good appet.i.te. There's no side effect. So they let her eat without worry.

“Rinka, you eat a lot of meat. Why don't you grow taller?”

Seeing Shinichi touching his sister's head and talking, his parents on the side quietly looked at each other. His mother handed a bowl of meat porridge to him.

“Shinichi, stop joking with Rinka. Hurry and eat. Didn't you say that you have to give a freshman speech at school?”

"Ah! Yes."

Shinichi took the bowl and began to eat porridge.

His parents stared at him, as if they wanted to observe some change from his face.

“How's the porridge? Shinichi.” His mother asked lovingly.

“It's delicious. Really good.” Kitahara Shinichi nodded and said.

“Look, I said that Shinichi would definitely like the meat porridge. How can he not like it? It's so delicious.” His mother seemed to be talking to herself, or her husband.

“That's good.” His father smiled gently.

Regarding the parents' conversation, Kitahara Shinichi always felt a bit weird. But just like he couldn't recall the content of the nightmare, he couldn't tell what was weird. So he could only ignore it.

After having the meal quickly, Shinichi fixed his hair and went to school with his bag.

However, after he left in a hurry, the house suddenly became quiet.

Even sunlight couldn't have dispelled the coldness and gloom.

An indescribably gloomy atmosphere.

“Crack, crack.”

On the dining table, there's only the weird munching sound of Kitahara Rinka, who kept gobbling up the meat.

Her mother rubbed her head softly. "Don't rush. Eat slowly."

Her father said. "Yes. If the meat is not enough, we'll add some more."

"Anyway……there's still a lot left!"

The two said together.

When they talked, they're expressionless. Their eyes looked dull.

They didn't look like humans.
