리틀팍스

Roxy arrived at the Metro City department store. It was truly a mess. All mannequins were undressed, and no food was found in the food court. And all the employees and guests were trembling with fear. Roxy went to an employee and asked.

Roxy: Mamm, are you okay?

Employee: (in a frightened voice) I hope I'm okay. He's here! That guy!

Roxy: Who is he?

Employee: Dark, dark! I'm so scared.

Roxy: Could you please tell me the circumstances?

Employee: I went to work as usual to greet customers and sell things. But suddenly, the whole department store became dark! To the point where you can't see anything! I used the flashlight function on my phone, but it became dark enough to absorb even the light. And I felt a chill behind me, and someone hit me hard in the back of my head! I fainted, As I fainted, I saw something faint and terrifying thing laughing wickedly and stealing things. I don't remember anything after that.

When Roxy heard this, she immediately went to one of the police officers.

Roxy: Is there any evidence found?

Police: Footprints were found in the hallway to the basement. It didn't match any of the customers who came here, of course, with any of the employees.

Roxy: Then shouldn't we go right away? We need to arrest him before the crime expands!

Police: I've sent some police commandos. They'll take...

Roxy: I'll go.

Police Commando 1: It's gonna be really scary, Rocket Girl.

Police Commando 2: It would be better not to go

Roxy: But I have to go. If no one goes, there's only more damage.

And she headed to the basement.

The basement of the department store was really dark. But it felt darker than any other basement. And it was so quiet. It was so quiet that you could even hear insects crawling. Roxy was a little scared, but she held onto her heart.

Roxy: It's scary, but I've experienced a lot of things that are scarier than this.

Roxy immediately used her super-vision and super-hearing to look around. In the basement, there were various boxes of clothes and goods, and there were also mannequins, which made the production a little creepy. And as soon as Roxy went through every corner and turned her back...
