At 4:50 p.m. a week later, I finished work early to meet Lily-san and arrived at the lobby of the finest hotel in Sibyaku. I managed to get there 10 minutes before the scheduled time. Fortunately, I had booked a top-tier room, so I hoped I could make her feel welcome.
Since she would likely be very nervous, the first thing to do was to ease her with a nice dinner. Thanks to my disguise, my identity hadn’t been revealed. As I looked around the lobby, it seemed that she hadn’t arrived yet. I carefully scanned the area to confirm this and then took a seat on a suitable sofa where I could see the entrance.
As time passed, it became 5:00 p.m. The appointed time had come, but Lily-san was still not there. It could be that she was delayed due to makeup or choosing her outfit, or perhaps the traffic was heavy. I decided to wait a bit longer.
By 5:30 p.m., I began to worry about her. If she had changed her mind, well, that was something I would have to accept since I was the one who brought it up. However, if she had encountered any trouble, it would be serious. To avoid any misunderstandings, I left a message for Lily Amian at the hotel front desk under the alias I had been using and decided to check her residence.
