[Typically, Joshua stays within the realm of Shibuya--whatever happens outside of his city is none of his concern, including the spirits that inhabit elsewhere in the world. Only those that live and die within Shibuya are the ones that require his divine attention, especially for the sake of his Reaper's Game.
But word can travel fast in the land of the dead. Spirits passing through spread rumors about a number of them having been exorcised in Seasoning City by a powerful esper, one who even went up against one of the most disturbing esper-turned-spirits known to many, Keiji Mogami.
It's enough to get The Composer of Shibuya's curiosity.
He's not supposed to leave Shibuya--as the being that practically watched over this city as their kami, their god, going outside of the city even temporarily could upset the spiritual balance of the city if he's not careful. Still, this Shigeo Kageyama is someone he wants to meet, and Joshua finds he doesn't have the patience to wait for an opportunity to manipulate a situation for the esper to come to him.
He spins some fabrications for the closest Reapers that he's busy with something, sets up some barriers to prevent other spirits in Shibuya from noticing his coming and going, and forces his spiritual energy to be pushed down deep enough that he can appear to the living or dead as the fifteen-year-old Joshua Kiryu he was when he was once alive.
When he arrives in Seasoning City, he finds himself drawn to the outside of a building. "Spirits and Such Consultation", huh... despite such a tacky name for a business, there's something he can sense in this spot, so he clasps his hands behind his back and simply looks up at the sign for a moment, considers whether or not he should try to go inside. He could also just wait outside and see if someone notices him here, and while good things come to those that wait, he's already decided that waiting isn't for him. Otherwise, he wouldn't even be here.
So, Joshua knocks on the door. Time to see if anyone's in today.]
