Kaito and Rin stand inside a store, both wearing aprons with vertical stripes. Kaito, on the left, has wide, distressed eyes and his mouth is slightly open. Rin, on the right, holds a phone, smirks slightly, and has a pleasant look on her face.

About this chapter

Rain starts during the dead shift and the store has exactly one cheap clear umbrella left. Across the night, four increasingly desperate customers try to claim it, each attempt ending on the identical dead-eyed beat panel of Kaito holding the umbrella just out of reach. At dawn the rain stops, Kaito finally relaxes, and Rin reveals she quietly sold the umbrella online for a markup.
