Chapter 331

My soft footsteps amplified a hundred times in the hallway.

I was following the route of the murderer.
Murderer. My dearest Aoi could've been killed.

I found myself at a side door and pushed it open.

The cold air hit me like a wall,
climbing up my nose, down my throat, filling my lungs,
eating me from the inside out.

I let the cold swallow me and stepped outside.

The sky was a deep blue.
For the naked eye it appeared black, but looks can be deceiving.
It was going to be morning soon.

As I stood on the path looking up at the sky, something landed on my nose.

it melted as soon as I touched it.

Snow.

It will be a white Christmas.
