A familiar voice: "This is... Chie?" It's Naomi. "Very, very bored. I'm out of the hospital, but confined to my home for maybe a month. It sucks." "You like video games, Chie?" "There's a game, called Raze. A little FPS. It's not the best-selling game out there, but it's popular enough. But recently some of the players of this game have been dying. We think a supernatural may be the cause." "Their hearts just stop." "At least, that's what we gathered from the autopsies." "All of the deaths were Japanese citizens in Tokyo. The cause is probably within your jurisdiction. You can try logging onto the game, but that could be dangerous. Or you could go to the GCJ branch in Tokyo. They're the makers of the game. We've already spoken with them once, though, so that may not help much." "They don't know the cause; they agreed to recall the games if the occurances continue, but that's only because they know they'll be ordered to anyhow. We didn't get to talk to the programmers, however. They may have something to say." "Hmmm... The deaths were all in multiplayer mode. There's a chance you'll find the problem if you log onto the game, but that also has some risk." "Oh, and they all occured at night, though at varying times." "That's all." "Later."
