Guilty (5) I don't remember exactly when it happened, but it couldn't have been too long ago. The terrible tragedy at the food factory where numerous people died due to a mechanical malfunction. Since it happened before the "protagonist" appeared and I haven't heard about it yet, it must have occurred within the last 1-2 years. "If you have something to say, say it."

Guilty (1) Even looking up at the sky, I couldn't see any stars. To see light, I had to look down. I was standing on the tallest building in this city, and there wasn't a structure that could meet my gaze at eye level. Turning my gaze toward the business district, I saw countless office workers' tormented souls shining like sparkling lights illuminating the city. Despite the late hour, those lights hadn't gone out yet. Perhaps they wouldn't go out even after much more time had…
