대본

The final panel mirrors page one exactly, but in pale daylight: the store is spotless again and Kaito stands in the same mid-aisle spot holding the cleaning cloth, exhausted but composed, with Rin at the register on her phone. The one thing changed: a second small black fly is drifting in through the open sliding doors behind him, unnoticed. Rin: Behind you.

이미지 설명

Daylight; the spotless store mirrors page one, Kaito back in his spot with the cloth — but a second fly is drifting in through the open doors.

이 챕터에 대해

3 A.M. Kaito has just finished cleaning the dead-hours store to a spotless, silent perfection — and then a single fly gets in through the sliding doors. Unable to tolerate the one flaw in his immaculate kingdom, he arms himself with a tightly rolled blank flyer and declares total war on the intruder, even as Rin flatly points out the doors will simply open at dawn and let it out on its own. Across the shift the fly evades every swing, lands on a salaryman mid-swat, shrugs off the tracksuit regular's absurd advice, and drives Kaito into an existential spiral about the single imperfection in his perfect world — each failed attempt landing on the same dead-eyed beat of Kaito frozen with his weapon raised. Rin films all of it as 'Man vs Fly,' with one flicker of near-sincerity before going back to her phone. Near dawn Kaito finally, calmly corners the fly against the cooler glass with a serene smile for the first time all night... and the morning-delivery doors slide open, and the fly drifts out into the dawn on its own, exactly as Rin promised. Kaito gets nothing; Rin's six-hour stream wins the internet. He stands in the spotless daylight store, right where he began — and a second fly drifts in through the open door.
