Meanwhile, somewhere in Shinjuku, Kaori laid in a bed, softer than feather. As she fluttered her eyes open, for a moment, a mirage flashed before her eyes. It was of a man in blue overcoat on a red vest and black trousers. It seemed that he was kissing her! The mirage seemed so real, that Kaori had goose bumps all over her body and something funny ran down her spine. She still couldn't remember about any incident except the probable name of the man: RYO! "R……….yo" was all that she could mutter, opening her eyes from the half-asleep state. Just then she heard a voice "Hello my dear! How're you feeling now? Are you alright? MY God! You had nearly given me a heart-attack there in the cathedral!" Kaori tilted her head on the pillow to look to her side. All she could was a pair of eyes, eyes of an eerie person. She didn't know why, but suddenly something chilly ran down her spine. Suddenly all her senses went numb just before which she felt a pang of pain on her left wrist. Kaori could remember herself drowning into the darkness that slowly devoured her from all around. Her heart cried from within her, but she couldn't help it. Those eyes took her to a completely different world, where she had no control over herself.

"WILL ANYONE TELL ME WHAT JUST HAPPENED HERE?" shouted the Old Doc as Ryo slowly went out of the room. Sayuri too nodded to his words. Umibozu had tried to remain silent, but Miki-San blurted out from the toilet, momentarily closing the toilet-door to change into one of Kaori's trousers and then came out "Kaori is kidnapped" she said. Umibozu tried to stop her, but she retorted with a strong voice "Falcon! They have the right to know! Sayuri is her sister and Doc saved her life! Both of them deserves to know her………. Hey Doc! What happened?" her words were cut short as the Old Doc was seen to sit on the ground itself with a loud thud! "Again! Does this girl goes around searching for dangers?" he muttered! Umibozu gave Miki a stern look through the black-glasses (he is blind now, its previously mentioned!) he was wearing and went out of the room without any further word. Minutes later the door to the apartment was heard to open and close simultaneously, which explained that he went out of the apartment. The Old Doc was still sitting on the ground. "What shall we do now?" asked Sayuri. Miki had a frown on her forehead, "I don't happen to have the slightest clue to that, Sayuri-san. I don't like the sound of that" she said with sunken hopes. Finally the Old Doc said "So, that's why Ryo is so demoralized. No wonder he's shuddered to his inner self." Just then Miki san asked "What was the reason you stepped in here doc? Was it something very important?" The Doc thought for a bit and then said "Tomo-Chan saw that there is a magic show upcoming tomorrow due to the event of Christmas." Miki gave a startled look, "So tomorrow's Christmas, huh? There's the reason Ryo is so much depressed. It was the same day six years ago, when he met with Kaori, and in the same day after about a year of their meeting, Kaori had decided to celebrate Ryo's birthday. Ryo didn't have a personal identity of his own, neither did posses any memories regarding his past. After he met Kaori, everything changed. He got a life he had longed for, and Kaori got a partner who cared for her. Both were so happy in their lives together, that sometimes I myself envied them, and now look at them! Both are probably trying their level best to come closer to the other" she thought. Miki could only see one side of the story: Ryo's side, but although she couldn't see or Kaori, she was sure about her too. She clasped her hands and prayed to god to unite them as soon as possible. Sayuri was watching her with a bit of surprise, finally she couldn't help asking her "What's the matter? Why are you acting so weirdly?" The Old Doc too gazed at her intently. Miki went on to tell them about the incidents of how Ryo and Kaori met each other, what Ryo's been through for the past year, how he longed for Kaori and finally Kaori sudden relapse and return to his life, everything. Sayuri heard her till the last drop. It was as if she could see the incidents before her eyes. She mumbled "So that's the reason I couldn't get to you the previous time I tried to write XYZ, Mr. Saeba. Now I understand why there were no cases of any mysterious incidents from Shinjuku." Sayuri could finally understand how deeply Ryo cared for Kaori, how deeply he was moved by the incident. But there was one question in her mind, which she asked Miki "Why is she kidnapped now? Who did it?" Miki nodded her head in utter disapproval, "I don't have the slightest bit of information to that question, Sayuri. Neither Saeko or Umibozu knows anything about it, but perhaps Ryo knows who the kidnapper is. I had heard him to call out a peculiar name once before."
