Part in the Story[]
The Black Contractor[]
Babo, Joshua, Lewis and Irene socializing.
Irene, Lewis, Babo and Joshua engage in some early morning drinking, much to the annoyance of landlady Misuzu Ōyama. When Irene invites Hei to join them, Misuzu sweeps up a load of dust to stop them from forcing the uninterested Hei to drink with them. Later, while socializing early in the morning, Kenji Sakurai smashes in the door complaining about the noise the four friends were making, much to their shock. When Misuzu enters the room and complains about the door, the four help with the repairs and then have lunch together with Hei and the Ōyamas, during which they discuss the reasons they are there. Afterward, they four take Kenji to one of their apartments to drink. Lewis mentions that Hei is a loner and that they rarely interact with him. Irene says that it is fine, as some people are able to live like that and that they should carry on drinking. They carry on until all four fall asleep and Kenji leaves.[1]
