  Lunch was pastry from that bakery with the mascot that reminded me of Phillip K. Dick. It was something about the croissant head and pastry beard that really looked like him. I always thought the sign was creepy, but they had good bread. I tried not to think of it, but I still worried about what the food was doing to me since it should have gone bad and started to grow moldy days ago. I dropped by Airi's branch office but even though it was open there were no bodies or signs of violence. Since it was close by, I decided to drive through Shibuya again to see if the piles in the crossing were all gone. I needed to find a place to sleep, and immediately thought of the beach in Odaiba, with enough open spaces to see anyone or anything sneaking up on me. Tomorrow I could go check the power plant in Toyosu, then go to Airi's friend's building nearby to see if she had gone there.
