@wurmixia !!!
While supernatural cases were rare for the detective to handle, he was tasked in investigating this abandoned house. Shuichi learned about the constant rumors regarding this place... like strange noises, a figure spotted inside, and even screams.. but how much of that was actually true, he wasn't sure. No one was brave enough to actually go in and see for themselves. He knows that it obviously can't be ghosts, but, as almost always the case: a person either living or hiding inside the place for whatever reason.
Today, he was going to find out for himself what was really going on, to hopefully clarify what's actually going on in this house to ease the people's worries. "This should be it..." He mutters to himself as he stands before it. He braced himself, since whoever is inside... could be someone potentially dangerous, if not some prankster purposely perpetuating the ghost rumors. With a taser safely stashed in his jacket pocket and backup on speed dial, he had some means of protecting himself if it gets that bad.
With his flashlight on, he quietly enters the house... the floor beneath him creaking with each step. At best, he won't find anyone inside and/or any evidence someone has been staying in here; and at worst, he does find a "ghost", after all. Which, again: he knows won't happen. But even with that said.. something about the air in this made him feel.... tense; like something potentially dangerous was lurking around the corner... but he quickly shakes that off as paranoia and continues on.
As he checks the rooms, steadily finding nothing except.. very concerning red stains here and there... he gets to the last room, opening the slightly cracked door some more... and stops immediately in his tracks. ".....!" A figure...sitting on the old bed. So someone really is here... But he doesn't dare step too close, aside from a couple of steps into the room. "....Hello." He greets. "Are you the person that's been staying in this house?"
Will he get an actual answer? He's not sure. He cautiously braces himself for whatever reaction he may receive....
