A man in a dark coat stands at a store counter, holding up a striped apron over an open box, with shelves of items and a rainy night visible outside the front door.

About this chapter

During the dead-of-night shift Kaito finds a cardboard lost-and-found box under the counter that hasn't been emptied in three years. As he excavates increasingly cursed objects from it, a single customer keeps returning to add more, and Kaito slowly spirals into the realization that the box only grows and never empties. By the end, Rin is alone behind the counter, filming the empty stool where Kaito used to sit. He's in the box now.
