After, his order was successfully finished Ronan decided to sit and enjoy the show as he started devouring his pizza. The thick and melty cheese hitting his taste buds in all the right ways as he tucked in. "Mmm! This so good stuff no wonder people pay a wad of cash for this" He hummed with delight.

"Hmmm I still got some cash with me, I wonder what I could buy here aside from food" he yawned noticing the animatronics on stage singing with perfect automation.

"Able to move, talk, enter criminal databases, I wouldn't expect something like this in the year 2006" he mumbled to himself in amazement.

"Still though they just seem too human to me, it's kinda creepy in a way" he examined their faces and chests, remembering how human they were. "Ah... Another loyal customer, You must be Ronan?" A voice came from behind as Ronan quickly turned around.

"Oh don't be spooked it's just me, Hillman Yokogao" he chuckled with a sigh, he seemed to measure at 5'8" with short black hair and brown eyes. He wore a dark blue shirt and green suit complete with a purple tie, along with glasses.

"As imposing as I am, I wouldn't hurt a fly" he smiled lending his hand out for a handshake. Ronan reluctantly shook his hand with a bit of unease. "So what brings you here to my fine establishment today?" He asked with a somewhat happy smile.

"Oh just an outing with friends nothing much" he replied in a more chill tone this time while sipping on a cup of water. "Ah of course, a relaxing outing with your pals... Really takes me back to my youth" he reminisced looking at the children playing near the Animatronics.

Remembering his youth clearly as he sighed happily. "Since I'm the owner... Wouldn't you like to ask some questions?" He sat across from him. "I got all the time I need so ask away my patron" he smiled yet again this time it seemed more creepy.

"Oh well my first question is why are they so human? Are You some kind of crazed Otaku who obsessed with Kemonomimis?" He asked intrigued about the Animatronics designs and where he got the idea from. 

"Ah the usual question hahaha, you remind me of those reporters... Well to put it simply" he paused for a moment trying to make a well versed response that seemed respectful.

"They are based off my wife... The most dearest thing in my life, well she was anyway..." He took a deep sigh of disappointment. "Oh I didn't mean to bring back any uh bad stuff" Ronan apologized in a nervous tone.

"No no really it's fine" he chuckled, "But by the look on your face I bet you wanna know about those urban legends no?" He asked with an analysing tone as Ronan froze up in shock.

What was with this guy? How was he so calculating? So good at analysing a person? He asked himself in confusion. Before building up the courage to respond with a faint nod.

"Well rest assured there is none... These ghosts even if they were here, they would've grown up and left" he explained. "Huh? What do you mean?" Ronan replied with a puzzled expression.

"When a person dies... Spirits age like a human but they can never die, They move on eventually unless something or someone keeps them in place" he explained with a bundle of information that seemed almost like something straight out of science fiction.

"You know so much... But how?" Ronan asked as his curiosity started consuming him. "That's my hypothesis anyway but I believe it's true" Hillman shrugged as Ronan rolled his eyes with a little doubt.

"So basically bullshit" he mumbled rocking on his chair. "Anyway I think you should go to your friend I think she needs help" he titled his head as Ronan looked to the right noticing Kaiya staring at a horse plushie.

He then looked back at his cash in hand. "It wouldn't hurt to help the little softball once in a while" he stood up before walking off to Kaiya.

As Hillman watched from afar he began to grin, "Human nature... So easily manipulated and so easy to mess around with" he mumbled already setting his plan into motion. 

"You see Ronan... Humans are very much like animals, they'll find competition in anything and everything" he added before walking away. "After there can only be one mate" he chuckled under his breath.

"Ronan?" Kaiya looked up noticing him holding up a 900 Yen note. "Just that penguin plushie thank you" he asked as the Animatronic behind the counter appeared to be a small pink robot girl with chibi style size and human features. 

"Right away sir!" She nodded before pushing a ladder againster the shelves and grabbing the plush toy. "Here you go mister!" She exclaimed with a smile before placing down the plush on the counter.

"Fun Fact! We have a couple discount on going right now" she chuckled with almost childlike laughter. As Ronan frowned rolling his eyes...

"We're not a couple" he sighed.
