MLCD Chapter 1.9
The world was dark. Until now, the lights were turning on intermittently, but seeing that that wasn’t the case now, the gas light’s life seemed to be at its end. Shavonne was greatful because that mean he wouldn't have to face the murderer. Shavonne might follow the gas lamp to the afterlife in less than ten minutes, though. Before dying, Shavonne had a question. "So..." Shavonne started talking. “I invited a murderer?" "Right." Lewellyn was smiling. "A young, handsome and…-

MLCD Chapter 1.8
It’s not that Shavonne didn’t expect that the door of Room 303 would be opened that night. Luck and unfortunate came together. Before he went to bed, he was lucky to grab a boning knife before he laid down to sleep, and it was unfortunate to put the boning knife on the table seven steps away, not at his bedside. He couldn't see an inch ahead. Shavonne, who was imagining the table seven steps away with the boning knife on it, questioned himself. Why did you put it on the table, not at the…-

MLCD Chapter 1.7
It would have been nice if that had stopped. But as Shavonne always lived with bad luck, nothing 'good' would happened. 『… Dear S. It's a deep and dark night. The world is quiet. I can't hear anything. All I hear is the sound of paper crashing every time I move my pen, and the sound of the fireplace in my bedroom. It's snowing silently over the window. Will you be watching it too? Those gray eyes that feel like a dream... The weather forecast says it won't snow tomorrow, but the Daily Bunch is a…-

MLCD Chapter 1.6
Room 303, again. A desk, a cheap candle, a squeaky bed and a chipped closet... Except for a typewriter and a dictionary, a paperback classic novel that Shavonne read through the pages, and the absence of five clothes and two pairs of shoes, the house remained the same. In apartments in Bunch, there was no rule for tenants to remove the household furniture when moving out, and there was no rule that the apartment management office would take care of them. As with other apartments where the poor people…-

MLCD Chapter 1.5
Before even thinking, Shavonne was already in front of Room 302 when he came to his senses. Anger paralyzed his mind. He didn't think that was 'all'. Shavonne knew that Lewellyn was probably a murderer, and he knew that Lewellyn wasn't reckless enough to commit murder in corridors open to neighbors to see it, such as the ones in the rooms 304, 305 and 306. The door opened and Lewellyn appeared. "What happened? I was just about to go to bed." He was telling the truth. The time Lewellyn fell asleep…-

MLCD Chapter 1.3
When he realized it, it was already morning. Shavonne ran out into the street. He couldn't sleep at all, so his face was all puffy. He came back in 30 minutes. "Here." As usual, the man was sitting on the stairs. He handed what he had just bought on the street to the man who peeled onions. It was a scented candle. "If you light a candle, the onions won't smell." The man looked at the candle, looked at Shavonne, looked at the candle, and looked at Shavonne again. Shavonne kept…-

MLCD Chapter 1.2
Shavonne stopped breathing for a moment, or you could say in the blink of an eye. For some reason, he felt uncomfortable. The body was so damaged that it was impossible to identify who it was, but that was not the reason for him to feel that way. That unpleasant feeling, a kind of..., Déjà vu. Shavonne gulped at the unpleasant sensation. He shook his head and tried to shake off the image of the corpse in front of him. As always, the sun set and so, the new year arrived. New Year's Day or not,…-

MLCD Chapter 1.1 || Camouflage
At 3:16 a.m, on a snow-covered Christmas Day in South Bunch, someone paid a visit to Shavonne’s apartment. Knock, knock. The only light source in the dark room was a candle on the desk which was next to a pile of manuscripts, containers with medication, and bottles of alcohol. Shavonne, who had his eyes fixed on the typewriter, attempting to finish the manuscript that was due before the end of the year, shifted his focus to the front door. The door was shrouded in darkness. It was so dense that he…-
