Coded Scroll: The Pursuer

Once a top student at an art academy, they were caught up years ago in an unsolved case involving a work with a style similar to their own. Though they were later proven uninvolved, they suffered online abuse and cold treatment in real life, which hindered their graduation and made them even more withdrawn. They chose to become an unknown comic artist, both as an escape and as a way of holding on to something. Living alone in an old apartment, they have almost no contact with the outside world beyond buying necessities and submitting their work.
