Chapter 1: The Dead in the Rain
The rainy season in Tokyo always carried a damp, clinging chill, as if the ancient city were being slowly drowned in murky gray. I walked back through a narrow alley beside the Tokugawa estate, holding a black oilcloth umbrella over my head. Rain dripped from the ribs of the canopy, making tiny pitter-patter sounds that stood out sharply against the silent night. Street lamps swayed violently in the wind and rain, casting long, twisted shadows on the ground that looked like ghosts struggling to escape.
I was thirty-five years old, named Munenobu Yagyu, and these days I was just a doctor who collected bodies from the slums. Three years ago, my reputation was destroyed by a forged medical record that had been planted against me—a coordinated purge by the underworld and the authorities. My wife and children vanished in a sudden fire, never to be found, leaving behind only a family letter burned in half. I had lost everything, save for hands that could still read pulses and examine bones, and a mouth filled with cold sneers.
The rain intensified. From deep within the alley came a stifled, ragged gasp. It didn’t sound like a beast; it sounded like the last breath being squeezed from a dying man’s throat. I stopped and listened. The sound of rain hitting the blue stone flags masked most of the details, but that rhythmic, deathly wheeze cut through the downpour.
“Is... anyone there?”
