Chapter 4:

Digital Ghosts

Project RunAway


That evening, Aoi tries to relax at home, but she feels like she's being observed. Her parents' automated messages come in as usual, but she can't shake the feeling that they aren't really from her parents at all. She checks the house's digital system, hacking into its core for the first time. To her horror, she finds hidden files — recordings of her daily life. Every moment of her existence has been recorded. As she clicks through the videos, she sees a strange figure lingering in the shadows of her home in some clips. A warning message pops up on her screen: "Stop looking."
