We are introduced to Masaru’s world: the hum of refrigerators, the beep of the register, the distant siren of a police car. A news report announces the sixth victim of the “Fukumen Satsujinki” – a masked assailant who strangles victims after asking them a riddle. Masaru dismisses it as “Tokyo weirdness.” Then Mask-san enters. Their first conversation is awkward, almost comedic: Masaru offers him a free takoyaki-flavored snack. Mask-san refuses. Silence. Episode ends with Mask-san saying, “Anata wa Kansai kara kita n desu ne. Osaka wa… ningen ga hontou ni warau basho da.” (You’re from Kansai, aren’t you? Osaka is… a place where people truly laugh.) kansai jin to hukumen satsujinki audio drama
