IzumiAh...Now that I think about it, I don’t know the specific location of that empty building...
Hisui“You don’t need to worry. I know the way”
“It’s over here, follow me.”

Izumi(We ended up in front of the storeroom...There’s a paper written “Unlocked” over here as well.)
Kou“Hmm, it’s here huh. Then, let’s go inside and take a look.”

Holmes“There’s a chance that the mysterious visitor is going to appear over here today, do you see any apparent changes in the surroundings?”
George“If it stays this way, the customers will stop coming. I wonder who this visitor is, I do want to know as well.”
Miyagi“I just met the caretaker for this building, there doesn’t seem to be anything unusual—Right, I’m getting up now,”
Kondo“Ah, oi! Who are those people over there...!?”
Holmes“!”
George“What...!?”
Kou“Seems like our appearances surprised you.”
IzumiSorry for coming in suddenly. Umm, I have something to tell everyone...
The identity of the mysterious visitor is Hisui-san over here.
Kondo“This person?”
Holmes“Oh, the fact that my lady brings the mysterious visitor here directly means...”
Hisui“Mysterious visitor...?”
IzumiActually, recently there’s a rumor floating around here about a mysterious visitor that visits once a day.
Hisui“I see...”
“My bad, I was being careful not to stand out, but I didn’t think that I actually bothered a lot of people.”
“I’m just, trying to look for someone that I really want to meet.”
George“I see, so it’s like that.”
Miyagi“Don’t just create a fuss like that...”
Kou“But as I thought, none of them is your Master.”
Hisui“Yeah. You even specially came here with me, my bad.”
IzumiIt’s fine, please don’t mind it.
Kondo“Regardless, what a strange appearance you guys have. It doesn’t look like the so-called cosplay too...”
Holmes“What are you guys?”
Kou“We’re Shikigami.”
Kondo“Shi, Shikigami!? The kind that appears in Onmyouji stories, you mean you’re that...!?”
Miyagi“It’s just a joke right...”
George“Hmm, what is a Shikigami?”
Holmes“I feel that I’ve heard the word itself before...”
IzumiUmm...I don’t know if I can explain it well, but something like a ghostly spirit apparition? I wonder if that explanation is alright...?
Kou“It’s troublesome to explain. So let’s leave it at that.”
Hisui“I don’t mind either.”
George“An apparition...! What a profound mystery...!”
Holmes“Who would have thought that the mysterious visitor is really such an existence.”
Hisui“I’m really sorry for making a fuss for everyone. I’m going to try looking somewhere else once more.”
Kou“But you seem to have scared the people around this area, isn’t it better to just stay over here for a while.”
Hisui“You’re right...”
Izumi(Hisui looks a bit disappointed...)
Miyagi“...Hey, you.”
Hisui“?”
Miyagi“You look pretty tired, why don’t you take one of my sake and drink for now.”
“You might feel more energized after drinking good sake. Ah, I don’t know if Shikigami can drink sake or not though.”
Hisui“I’m thankful for your offer.”
Kondo“Ah, that sounds good. The sake that the owner choose always hits the mark, they’re delicious.”
George“Oh, then I would like to try drinking it too. Can I get one as well?”
Kou“The sake of this world huh. Hmm, I’m also interested.”
Holmes“You piqued my interest indeed. Let me have it as well.”
Miyagi“You guys...!”
“Sigh, understood...I’ll bring everyone’s share later.”
Izumi(Fufu, they’re people from different era and country, but they get along well somehow, looking at them is pretty funny)
Holmes“Speaking of which, have you found the owner of the key?”
IzumiNo, I actually haven’t found them.
Miyagi“...I see. Just like that Shikigami who is looking for someone, the key might also be looking for the keyhole that suits it.”
IzumiYou’re right...That might be the case.
Kondo“If you can’t find the owner here, the key might be connecting you to a new story up ahead. This is not the end.”
IzumiA new story...
Holmes“If you have decided, that means you can’t stay here, doesn't it?”
IzumiYes?
Hisui“You’re going to look for the key’s owner right?”
IzumiI mean, I guess it’s supposed to be that way...But from the beginning, what has this been all about!?
Kou“It’s best for you to go now, little girl.”
George“A journey around with the key, please enjoy yourself.”

IzumiI, I got kicked out, in the end I didn’t get to know anything either...
(Even so, a mystery in the warehouse really sounds like Winter Troupe, how to say it...)
(But, I was really drawn by everyone’s lively performances, I ended up participating with them naturally)
This is not the end...
(Even if the season changes, once more, it’s going to connect to the new season, just like Winter.)
(What’s there behind this key, I wonder...I’m really looking forward to it.)
Then, let’s go and try to find the key’s owner once more.
