Chapter 1: Death by Overwork Kentaro Saitou had had enough. The clock on the wall blinked 2:15 AM, casting a pale glow on his haggard face. He was the only one left in the office again. Every night, without fail, Kentaro stayed late. He hated it. But what else could he do? There were always more emails to respond to, more reports to file, more angry clients to appease. He rubbed his tired eyes and sighed, clicking through another set of spreadsheets. How had he ended up like this? Fifteen years in the company, rising from the trenches of logistics to a middle management position, and yet the more he climbed, the more he felt like he was stuck in a hamster wheel that never stopped spinning. “Hey, Kentaro, can you handle one more thing before you go home? It’ll only take a minute, promise!”
