3 We spent the next few days looking for the blank, white puzzle piece. We searched every nook and cranny in that house, looking everywhere we could imagine. We knew for sure that the puzzle had been fully accounted for in July when Urakawa-san brought it over to continue putting it together. We had counted…

2 I suppose it’s time to explain exactly what it is that happens to Urakawa-san. Of course, by that I mean the times where she shimmers unsteadily and is replaced by a version of her from another time. It’s an automatic phenomena, and Urakawa-san can’t control it. We have no way of knowing when it…
