Once Joy had moved closer to Yuyu, and she selected the<tt class="bbc_tt">TALK</tt>option, it seemed  natural to ask about her afternoon with Nori.  "We went to the Residential District, to say hello to some of the people that I know there."  Right.  It wasn't hard to remember the convenience store owner and his pregnant wife that had mentioned her.  As Joy herself had said, the Fire Dragon was pretty popular.  "There's hope there; you and Aika-senpai running off those Azure Rider goons from the convenience store got around the neighborhood, and they're hoping you'll come to help them, next."  That did indeed seem to be the plan as of the present - clear out the Districts closest to the Shrine and then reach out further across Hisashiro.<br/><br/>Yuyu smiled a little bit at her next statement.  "Nori-senpai's pretty nice; he bought some food from a cart on the side of the road for us."  That stood out, for two reasons.  The one was that Joy had known Nori for a little bit of time, before she and Aika and Genjo had come here - he was part of the Dragon Line families, but his was not what you would call wealthy.  He seemed to always be scraping for yen somewhere.  The second was, well...they<em>did</em>know about someone who worked such a cart...but Yuyu continued.  "We did hear about something strange, though.  People in the Residential District have been disappearing, and for once...they don't think it's the Azure Riders.  The first one happened about two weeks ago, and every few days since then...they're up to five, now."<br/><tt class="bbc_tt"><br/>RUMOR ACQUIRED: MISSING PERSONS</tt>
