Got Dropped into a Ghost Story, Still Gotta Work

'It's actually him! Squad Leader!'

Since when did that white reptilian head and those vertical pupils start making me feel so relieved I could cry?

I almost jumped to my feet when I saw the lizard wearing the lizard mask.

'Of course, it's not exactly the right situation to be feeling that happy right now...'

Still, the memories of being super-saved by the physically strongest in those insane ghost stories were just too vivid.

Anyway, Chief Lizard, who seemed to have just returned from the Darkness, was now starting his report to the Research Team.

"It took three hours and twenty-four minutes to clear."

"Ah, um. Section Chief. Now might not be the best time for details..."

"There are outsiders present."

The Research Team gestured towards the office, now thrown into chaos.

Nearly thirty injured children, a handful of government agents, and even the groaning Daydream Inc. staff lay scattered around the space.
