In the screen, Owada continued: "...The weight of a man...is the weight of everything that man carries...You understand, right? Brother!? If it were you...I would definitely understand.
....."
Then after the screen went black, an image of Chihiro appeared. She said sheepishly: "I'm sorry for scaring you all... I simulated it myself based on the information about Owada-kun that the master input.
....If Owada-kun talks to the lost Ishimaru-kun, will this be the case?"
"Actually, it's understandable to stop moving forward... After all, you can postpone the moment of choice to some extent... Feel as disappointed as you want, regret as much as you want, and then when you wake up... you've already done it.
We have no choice... Humans... are really weak... Like this, they seem to be able to say something very impressive..." the artificial intelligence said with a smile.
The silent Ishimaru chuckled...and then said: "I will never forget it...Brother...just like a dry sponge absorbing...moisture...the dialogue just now, the passion just now, all...
It’s engraved in my heart!”
Naegi said: "That Ishimaru-kun...what's wrong with you..."
"Huh? Haha... I have been reborn! Ishimaru-kun said! Come on, I am very motivated, idiot!" Ishimaru shouted.
It seemed a little unclear, and it started to burn... Lin Xiao said: "Um, Mr. Ishimaru, calm down."
Then Ishimaru-kun ignored him and let out a strange roar, and ran out of the locker room...
Lin Xiao and Miaomu were both surprised and were about to go over to see him.
At this time, a girl with long purple hair appeared...it was Kirigiri.
"What are you doing..." Kirigiri said.
Naegi said: "Ah...that..."
Kirigiri said: "Don't act haphazardly. It will only cause trouble... If the shady case here is discovered, the gain will outweigh the loss..."
Lin Xiao said: "I'm sorry... because Ishimaru said he wanted to meet... Naegi and I both wanted to help him cheer up."
Kirigiri said: "Okay... Anyway, it's better to leave here now."
After that, the day passed peacefully... but the money in the gym was still there... indicating that maybe there was just an undercurrent.
The next morning, I came to the restaurant...only to see Naegi and Hagakure.
Ye Yin said: "Oh, good morning."
"Good morning...Why are there only the two of you? Where are the others?" Lin Xiao said.
Ye Yin said: "Let's go first... we'll talk more slowly later, anyway, let's take a bath together..."
"Well...but everyone?" Lin Xiao said.
"Where are they waiting for us?" Ye Yin said.
The three of them came to the bathhouse together... As soon as they arrived, Yamada made a strange cry, and then said: "Ah, someone come and save me."
Naegi said: "What's wrong..."
Yamada said: "That person wanted to kill me..."
Lin Xiao looked at where his eyes were pointing and asked: "Kirikiri...you want to kill Yamada?"
Kirigiri said: "I never said I wanted to kill him... I just wanted to play with the reasons why I would make the same mistake..."
Lin Xiao said: "Same mistake, what mistake did Yamada make..."
Kirigiri said: "He sneaked into the locker room late at night and used the program without authorization... And when I saw him yesterday, he looked very suspicious..."
Asahina said: "What on earth did you do."
Kirigiri said: "I gave him a tactful warning yesterday, but it seemed to have little effect...so I just asked him to explain it..."
Yamada yelled: "Don't kill me!"
Kirigiri said: "I won't kill you, I just want you to explain..."
Lin Xiao said: "What happened to Yamada..."
Yamada said: "...Ah...I just chatted with her for a little while..."
Kirigiri said: "We have already agreed not to contact without permission...and it is forbidden to go out at night!"
Yamada said: "Well...because it's pleasant to talk to her...so..."
Ye Yin said: "Wait a minute, you won't be obsessed with artificial intelligence..."
"What artificial intelligence, that's an angel..."
Yamada said seriously.
Asahina said: "Isn't this completely obsessed..."
Ye Yin said: "Why did it become like this?"
Yamada said: "Well... Actually, at first, I just listened to her talk about Master... Finally, after doing in-depth research, I found that it was very pleasant to talk to her... That... because of my body shape and hobbies
Something like that... So I have never had a conversation with a girl... But even if I made no secret of my interest, she would not be timid... and she would say what I said was very interesting... let me
Talk more...teach him more things...so I feel very happy...that's why it's like this..."
Ceres said: "Yamada-kun, have you misunderstood... Artificial intelligence is not interested in you, but in what you say... It is a program, and continuous learning is the meaning of its existence.
, it’s natural to be interested in things you don’t know.... And what you are good at is information that its developer cannot teach..."
Yamada said: "Ah...I understand this..."
At this time, a very strong voice interrupted the conversation, it was Ishimaru...Although it was Ishimaru who had completely changed his appearance.
He said: "Hey, you guys, I have been listening to you since just now! You are just talking to yourself!"
Ye Yin said: "Ishimaru? Are you resurrected?"
Ishimaru said: "Ishimaru? Who is it!"
"No...it's just you..." Ye Yin said.
Lin Xiao pulled Ye Yin and whispered: "He seems to have awakened strange attributes..."
Then Naegi told everyone what happened yesterday...
The master said: "In other words, because of what the program said..."
Asahina said: "That's why it turned out like this..."
"No, my brother is mine! The clone of my brother's soul is entrusted in the artificial intelligence. No one is allowed to touch him."
Ishimaru who said this stared at Yamada with hostility...
"...Why is this..." Yamada said dejectedly.
"Okay, no matter what, no one is allowed to contact without permission...I will guard it..." Kirigiri said.
After making the agreement, we spent another peaceful day... It seems that the motive for this incident was just money, and everyone looked down upon it, right?
I hope so.... After Lin Xiao woke up from his sleep, he came to the restaurant....
In the restaurant, in addition to Kirigiri and Ishimaru, Togami and Fukawa were not there as usual...
Hagakure said: "Kirikiri is guarding, but why isn't Ishimaru here either?"
Yamada, you said: "Humph, it's best to leave that guy alone!"
Asahina said: "It seems like he is very angry..."
Ye Yin said: "I can't help it... I'm a love rival..."
"Please don't compare me to that kind of virgin... Virgins are contagious!" Yamada said.
Ye Yin said: "Okay, so should you."
Ceres said: "Let's stop talking about this. Breakfast is the most important thing."
Suddenly, a man burst into the cafeteria, with a cheerful laugh... Yes, it was Xiang, the genocide.
The great god said: "It is indeed."
At this time, another person walked in behind her, it was the Ten Gods.
Everyone looked at him, and he said impatiently: "Don't ask me why I'm with her... I'm too lazy to answer..."
Ceres said: "Okay, what do you want to do here?"
Lin Xiao said: "You are not here to have breakfast with us, are you?"
"Of course, I'm here to ask some questions..."
Togami said lightly.
"What specifically are you asking?" Naegi asked.
Togami said: "There must be something you didn't tell me, right?"
The great god said: "....Sorry, I can't say it now..."
"Why?" Togami said.
The great god replied: "Because of various reasons..."
Ye Yin said: "So far, I have acted like it has nothing to do with me, and now I suddenly ask us to explain something. Are we so easy to control?"
Togami pointed at Ye Yin and declared: "It's decided, I will drag you to feed the birds after you get out of here."
Ye Yin said: "What kind of dictator is this?"
Togami said: "However, it is really a great democracy. People who do not comply with your wishes will not give any information..."
Naegi said: "That's not the case..."
"Forget it, okay, can you tell me what happened to Ishimaru? I met him by chance yesterday, and I always thought he looked strange..." Togami said.
Ceres said: "Ishimaru is broken..."
"It's probably because the character has collapsed..." Lin Xiao said.
"Wait...that's just...a little problem..." Naegi said.
"You can't stand this kind of environment, and you even have a mental breakdown?" Togami said, "But guys like this who preach a cheap sense of justice are generally very weak... But thank him,
It seems like things are getting interesting."
Naegi said: "What does interesting mean?"
Ten Gods said: "Let me give you a piece of advice first, don't rely on the false sense of companionship...it will make you suffer a lot! Okay, then goodbye..."
The genocide said: "Well, farewell..."
Togami said: "You don't have to follow me..."
The genocide said: "Hey... Lord Baiye, save some time for being arrogant and arrogant, let us enter the shy state..."
Togami turned around and said: "That's nonsense..." Then after saying this, he ran away...
"Oh, I ran away...ah hahaha, is it the attribute of a runaway girl...Wait for me, wait for me!" The genocide said so and chased after him...
It seems that the Ten Gods are also haunted and scared... by this murderer...
It was a quiet day, nothing happened anymore, right?
When I arrived at the restaurant the next day, except for Sakura Ogami, Asahina, Kirigiri and Naegi, no one else was there....
Lin Xiao said: "It seems like everyone can't get together recently... What's going on?"
Asahina said: "It's true. There are always such unpunctual people... It's so disturbing..."
The great god said: "No matter what, please wait a little longer before others come to gather..."
Lin Xiao said: "This is the only way..."
I originally thought nothing would happen, but no matter how much I waited, no one came... I had a bad feeling...
Asahina said: "Why haven't you guys come over yet? It's not usually like this, right?"
The great god said: "...Indeed...Why is this happening..."
Kirigiri said abruptly: "...Something happened... Or we were negligent... We were too focused on artificial intelligence... Monokuma has been very calm since he proposed his motive... Sure enough...
It’s still not that good…”
"...It is indeed too calm. It seems that the people who want to act this time have been planning or hesitating for a long time... I hope nothing will happen... It is better for us to conduct the search separately now...
." Lin Xiao said.
Kirigiri nodded and said: "Okami, you are in charge of the dormitory, Naegi and Lin Xiao are in charge of the first floor of the school, I will search the building..."
Asahina said: "Then, I'll go to the school building!"
Kirigiri said: "Don't be too reluctant...If anything happens, call other people over immediately..."
With uneasiness, everyone split up... After starting the investigation, Lin Xiao and Miaomu looked through all the classrooms on the first floor...
Then just after coming out of the last classroom, there was a sudden scream, it was Asahina...
Sure enough, something happened. She was in charge of the building. Lin Xiao and Miaomu looked at each other, and then rushed upstairs together...
When he came to the corridor of the building and saw Asahina lingering there, Lin Xiao rushed over and asked: "What's wrong? What happened?"
Asahina panicked and said: "It's not good...because the door of the entertainment room over there was open...so I took a look inside, but inside...inside...still...called everyone
It’s better to come here...I’ll go and call everyone here, you go in first..."
After saying that, she left in a hurry...and then came to the entertainment room... What she saw in the entertainment room was...
Seres looked like she was injured... "What's wrong with you, Seres..." Lin Xiao asked.
She grabbed her right arm with her left hand, which was probably where she was injured. She said, "I...I was careless...I was attacked."
"Did you see it by whom?" Naegi said.
"Being caught by a strange and suspicious person... That kind of appearance makes people want to add the word "weird" in front of the already strange and suspicious person... I was used by that strange and suspicious person with the hammer that was there.
Attacked!" Ceres said.
Then Lin Xiao saw it as expected. There was a gavel on the ground... The design was quite strange, and there was a line on it that said Hammer of Justice No. 1? What kind of strange thing is this...
Ceres said: "Fortunately, I avoided it at the critical moment, but I also fell at that time...Due to the usual lack of exercise, it left bad consequences..."
Then a voice sounded outside the entertainment room: "Are you okay? I'm afraid I brought Sakura here..." It was Asahina and Okami Sakura who rushed in...
The great god asked: "What happened to Ceres?"
Naegi said: "It seems that he was attacked by a suspicious person..."
The great god said: "Suspicious person? Who is he specifically?"
Ceres said: "I originally planned to go for a walk, but I found a guy who looked suspicious and his appearance was hidden, and then I followed him secretly...Then the suspicious person entered the entertainment room, and I
Looking inside through the crack in the door...it was at that time that he was discovered and attacked..."
Lin Xiao said: "When were you attacked?"
"I was attacked at around 7 o'clock in the morning..." Ceres said.
Lin Xiao said: "At that time...when everyone gathers in the cafeteria..."
Ceres said: "I lost consciousness immediately after being attacked... I think I was unconscious for about an hour now..."
Asahina said: "Fortunately, I was only slightly injured..."
Ceres said: "Maybe it's because I begged that strange guy for mercy... This is also a means of survival... Rather than this kind of thing, we should hurry up and search now! Otherwise, something big will happen.
occur."
"Big event? What do you mean?" Naogi said.
"When I peeked through the crack in the door, in addition to the suspicious person, there was another person... It was Mr. Yamada... After the suspicious person attacked, he should have taken Yamada away..." Se
Reiss said.
The great god said: "Were you kidnapped?"
Asahina said: "It's better to go find him quickly..."
Lin Xiao said: "What exactly does that suspicious person look like..."
Ceres said: "Well, actually I secretly took a picture of the suspicious person..."
Asahina said: "Really? Take it out and have a look!"
Ceres said: "Please don't be frightened...although it may be difficult not to be frightened..."
After looking at the photo, I found out that it was a robot-looking guy grabbing Yamada-kun...
Asahina said: "Why a robot...Is this COSPLAY?"
Naegi said: "That means this robot took away Yamada...?"
Ceres said: "That's right...this photo was taken when I was attacked...so if I don't speak quickly, something will happen."
The great god said: "That's it..."
Lin Xiao said: "No matter what, let's go find Yamada and this suspicious person first..."
After that, everyone left the entertainment room and started the search operation...
Then the great god heard a sound in the corridor, and she said: "Although the sound was very weak, it should be in the direction of the library..."
After arriving at the library... I saw Yamada... Yamada's forehead was covered in blood...
Naegi asked: "How are you? Are you okay?"
Asahina said: "But...still alive...it's great..."
Yamada said: "It's not good at all...look at the blood..."
At this time, suddenly a person walked into the library, it was Togami.
When he saw it, he said, "What's the matter with your injury?"
Yamada said: "That guy... did it... I just named him the Justice Warrior..."
Then Naegi explained the guy who attacked... Yamada saw the photo and said.
"That's the guy!"
Then Lin Xiao found a mallet on the ground... exactly the same as the mallet that attacked Ceres...
The Hammer of Justice has words like... written on it...
Yamada said: "I was attacked by the prisoner with that hammer... and banged on the head..."
Asahina said: "After being attacked by this thing... I'm really lucky that you didn't have any serious problems..."
After all, you are strong and strong... you must be rough-skinned and thick-skinned...
Ceres said: "Now let's send Yamada-kun to the health room on the first floor..."
Naegi said: "Indeed, it would be better to treat the wound first..."
After that, everyone went to the health room together...
Asahina said: "Hey, Yamada...are you okay...can I take care of your wounds?"
Yamada said: "Well, thank you..."
Ceres said: "Yamada-kun, during this period, it would be better for you to rest here..."
The great god said: "Then let's go search for suspicious people..."
Ceres said: "The size of the hammers used by prisoners, No. 1 and No. 1, are getting bigger..."
Togami said: "If there is another one... I'm afraid it will be a bigger hammer..."
Lin Xiao said: "Yamada, after you were caught, did you have any clues?"
Yamada said: "Well... I got up very early today... so I started looking for her in advance... It was the artificial intelligence... Who knew that when I entered the entertainment room on the floor, I was suddenly attacked by a suspicious person?
Already..."
Ceres said: "That's what I witnessed around 7 o'clock in the morning..."
Yamada said: "After that, I was taken to the library and attacked with a hammer... That was probably about 0-40 minutes ago..."
"Around 7 o'clock... we were still gathered in the cafeteria at that time..." Asahina said.
Togami said: "I was washing clothes in the laundry room at that time..."
The genocide said: "Oh, it's the ** of the night..."
"How do you know..." Togami said.
"Of course, because I peeked..." the genocide said with a smile.
"Hmph, why does Kirikiri never see anyone?" Togami said.
"Speaking of which, she should have searched the building...but I didn't see her just now..." Asahina said.
"No matter what, let's continue the search now... we must find the suspicious person!" Lin Xiao said.
After that, everyone acted separately again.... (To be continued)
