[Danwanron Hakomae] Hope synaesthesia

The green eyes looked at each other for a moment, she smiled, and before Miao Mu could react, she stretched out her finger in lightning speed, and flicked it on his forehead with a "snap".

"Ah pain!"

Seedling stared at her in bewilderment while clutching his reddened forehead, with a question mark on his head.

"Hahahaha, you look so stupid." Enoshima smiled, completely disregarding the boy's subtle self-esteem, and even bent down a bit viciously and stretched out a finger with long red nails to poke his cheek, "That's right, I also know that a person like Naegi can't hide any scheming at all."

"When you say that, I don't know whether it's a compliment or a mockery." The corner of Naegi's mouth twitched and took a step back to avoid teasing.

"Huh?" Enoshima tilted his head and blinked innocently, "It's a compliment. It's rare to see such a pure and lovely boy as Naegi these days."

"Thank you, but adjectives like cute don't make boys feel happy at all." He complained.

Interrupted by Enoshima, the conversation with Kirikiri was interrupted.

"It seems that this time I can't get the answer I want."

Hearing Kirikiri's sigh, Enoshima let out a "huh" when he heard the words, looked at her together with Naegi, and smiled boldly: "Is there anything Kirikiri wants to ask? Don't worry about me, don't worry about me, you Just say it directly."

"……no need."

The silver-haired girl glanced at the sapling who could clearly see the nervousness on her face. Enoshima was right, she was just a person who couldn't hide her thoughts... She sneered, turned and left.

"It's not a big deal, let's talk about it next time when I'm in a better mood."

In the dormitory at night, the hands of the clock move seamlessly one by one.

It was already midnight, and only the ticking of the clock could be heard in the house, and the surroundings were surrounded by silence and darkness.

Makoto Naegi wakes up without warning.

He opened his eyes, waited patiently for his eyes to adjust to the light in the room, then sat up and leaned against the head of the bed to wander.

It seemed like I had a nightmare just now, the specific content has been forgotten, but the bad feeling is still heavy in my heart, I really can't be happy now, the whole person feels not very good.

Only by myself... Makoto Naegi suddenly remembered that since he met Komaeda, the occasions where he acted alone had become rare.

I always call "Naegi-kun", "Naegi-kun", obviously I am a senior, and I feel that I have a very gentle and considerate personality, but in some areas, I am very sensitive and even sensitive, and I will express it in a ridiculous way Show a very clingy side.

Before I knew it, I got used to the two being together.

Probably because the life here feels like a year, and he actually feels very nostalgic for the time when the two of them lived together not long ago.

It's like a previous life... Miao Mucheng himself couldn't understand why such a word popped out of his heart, he shook his head, lifted the quilt, and slowly walked to the bathroom with his slippers.

However, his adaptability should be pretty good.

There is actually nothing wrong with being alone, and I even subconsciously get used to this situation, as if this state has been going on for a long time.

Thinking about something in a mess in his head, he held the doorknob with his hand, lifted it up skillfully, turned the doorknob, floated in like a ghost, and then turned on the faucet.

Monokuma set up a door lock for the bathroom door of the girls' dormitory. Boys don't have it, but there is a little problem with the structure of the door lock, so every time they have to lift the handle to open and close smoothly.It's not that he didn't think about finding a free time to use a toolbox to repair it at first, but later he found that he was used to opening and closing doors very quickly, so he became lazy and had cancer, and gave up this idea.

"...Ah, by the way, there is no water at night."

Dazed, he stretched out his hand to hold it up for a long time but didn't receive the water, and waited to wash his face to wake up, and then Nao Mucheng woke up from the trance, and looked up at himself in the mirror resentfully.

"I really hate insomnia... I have to get up for a morning meeting tomorrow morning."

The brunette boy in the mirror sighed again.

This is actually not like him, Naegi seldom gets into distress for such a long time, because he always tries to think of some good and positive things when he encounters problems, but now he is really troubled, and his own encounters The worst captivity incident in his life, whether it is Monokuma's side or Komaeda-senpai's strangeness, both sides make him uneasy.

Turning around in the room, Naogi sat on the edge of the bed with a bored face. He didn't even turn on the light, but he still didn't feel sleepy.

Do you want to go out for a walk...

He stood in front of the dormitory door and had already unlocked it, but hesitated again.

"Forget it, Seles has already said that everyone has made an agreement not to go outside the dormitory at night."

Just as the seedlings were about to close the door again, a slight sound from outside the door caught his attention.

"Tap, tap, tap, tap..."

A very gentle and regular voice, gradually increasing in volume, was the sound of footsteps gradually approaching him.

"Student Wuyuan, where are you going so late?"

"scare?!"

Wu Yuan was startled by the sudden sound, her legs went limp, and she fell to the ground in a panic.

"Miao, Miao, Miao Mu-kun?!"

If she hadn't raised her head and saw herself, Makoto felt that judging from her terrified appearance, she would probably have screamed out of fright.

Even so, the girl was still horrified by his sudden appearance in the middle of the night, her fingers tightly clutching the skirt of her chest, her hands and feet were so cold that she couldn't move, her face turned blue with naked eyes.

"Sorry to scare you." Naegi quickly apologized, "I couldn't sleep in the middle of the night and wanted to go out, but I didn't expect to see you passing by the door as soon as I opened the door..." Because he was also a little nervous, he subconsciously spoke up up.

After a while, Maison, who came back to her senses, held Naegi's outstretched hand, and slowly stood up.

"Why does Wuyuan come out so late?" He couldn't help asking, frowning, "It's too dangerous for a girl to be alone."

"Isn't Miaomu-kun the same?" Wuyuan's rhetorical question made him dumb for a moment, she was embarrassed to say that she had actually retreated, she gradually calmed down, covered her lips with her sleeve and smiled softly, "I can't sleep either. And because of the agreement of classmate Celes, I don't think everyone will go out at night, so if you think about it in reverse, night time should be safer than daytime, so I plan to go out for a walk."

"Such an idea is too dangerous!" Naogi retorted without thinking, with a look of disapproval on his face, "Although I also think that I should trust my classmates, this is not the same as Maiyuan risking her own life. , Even if it is trust... you must protect your own safety."

After thinking about it, he added worriedly and a little vigilantly like an old mother: "And it's not impossible that there are no other people outside the dormitory at night, such as the mastermind behind the manipulation of the black and white bears."

"Yes, I'm sorry, I was too reckless."

Seeing Maiyuan's face turned pale again because of his words, Naogi felt a little guilty for his too straightforward words, after all, she is a girl, and talking like this in the middle of the night will only make the other party more and more scared , he should be more tactful.

"But you don't have to think too much. I'm only talking about the worst case. In fact, it shouldn't be that serious. As long as Wuyuan students pay attention to their integrity and don't walk around at night, it should be fine. Go back to the dormitory now. Get a good night's sleep, and don't open the door for anyone else..." He tried to remedy.

"That, Naegi-kun."

Wuyuan interrupted him.

"what?"

"Sapling-kun is really reliable." Maiyuan couldn't help laughing.

The brown-haired boy blinked, a little unresponsive.

"How should I put it, I was terrified when I realized my carelessness. But for some reason, when I heard Mr. Naegi so worried about my safety, and told me everything I need to pay attention to, I suddenly felt relieved. Here we come." She said slowly, "Probably because I discovered that although the night is dangerous, Mr. Sapling will never hurt me, on the contrary, you will protect me."

Even if Naegi has long wanted to belong to her, it's hard not to feel flattered to be praised by an idol-level girl like this.

"Student Wuyuan, you are too flattering..." He was praised so much that his voice was fluttering, and he almost thought he was still in a dream. He couldn't believe that the reliable image that Sayaka Wuyuan spoke of was really himself?The mediocre sapling Makoto who has always been mediocre?

"But I can't let Sapling-kun fall into crisis." Maiyuan's voice became serious.

Seedling came back to his senses and looked at her puzzled.

"It's actually like this. I came out by myself at night. Apart from going around casually, I actually wanted to find a weapon for myself to protect myself." She looked at him and smiled playfully, "It's not that I don't have self-defense awareness at all. After all, he is usually an idol to the public. But now—"

She changed her voice.

"Mr. Miaomu, I also hope that you will be safe all the time." Wuyuan curled her lips, "So, for tonight's secret trip, I will be an assistant to help Mr. Miaomu find a weapon for protection!"

"Eh? Eh?"

"So, that's why you have such a model knife in your dormitory, Niaogi."

"Hahaha..." The boy who was still sitting under the blanket, with his messy sleeping hair on his head, laughed awkwardly at the discipline committee member standing by the bed with his arms crossed.

"No matter what the reason is, it's against the rules for you and Wuyuan to leave the dormitory late at night." Ishimaru scolded a little harshly, and glanced at the sapling who looked particularly wilted due to lack of sleep, "However, in the dormitory It's your freedom to put anything, as long as you don't have any bad intentions—"

"Of course not!" Seedling was so startled that the dumb hairs on his head stood up.

"Well, that's good." Ishimaru coughed dryly, "Now, I give you 1 minute to get ready to wash up, and then attend the morning meeting right away... Don't be late, Monokuma is waiting for us in the cafeteria."

The mournful expression that had just appeared on Miao Mu's face froze suddenly, he pursed his lips, and nodded silently.

Rushing to the cafeteria without any delay, Makoto Naegi paused, and sat at the end of the central long table. The person in the main seat on the farthest side from the gate was the principal Monokuma.

His heart sank.

Although it was only two or three days since I saw him, and he should have been under the observation of the camera all the time, it wasn't until he actually saw Monokuma again that Naegi suddenly had a bad feeling that they hadn't escaped from the nightmare. Feel.

Despair and terror never left.

"Oh, isn't this the sapling-kun who's stuck in bed?" Monokuma's voice was as bright and uncomfortable as ever, "Did you enjoy the night tour last night? Going to bed late and waking up late is not a healthy student life, so be careful Work and rest." It covered its lips and let out a "puff puff" laugh, "but this is just a friendly concern, not a little ghost, in fact, you can do whatever you want. I just want to sneak around in the night when no one is around. If you are looking for something sharp, you can call me out to show you the way."

"Eh? Naegi-san, did you go out at night?" Asahina was surprised.

"It's really distressing. After all, it's just a verbal agreement, and it seems that it still has no real effect..." Celes slowly stirred the coffee in front of her, and sighed seemingly melancholy.

"Hey, what dangerous things did you go out tonight?" Ten God frowned.

"Everyone, don't be sowed by Monokuma's misleading!" Seedling was a little mad, "I didn't intend to do anything dangerous at all!"

"That's right, I can testify for Mr. Miaomu!" Wu Yuan also stood up and said with a serious expression, "I was with Mr. Miaomu at that time, and I can prove it."

"Midnight? The two of you?" Yamada's eyes suddenly became strange.

"Ah, don't think about it! It's just a chance encounter!" Seedling was embarrassed.

"Hey, Monokuma, can I ask you a question?" Seles gently put down the coffee cup in her hand, raised her eyebrows and asked, "Does the cannibalism rules you mentioned allow the existence of accomplices?"

"Oh? That's a really good question." Monokuma glanced at everyone, "Unfortunately, even if there is an accomplice in a murder, only the person who actually committed the murder can graduate. Although the accomplice participated in the murder , but from a standpoint he is the same as everyone else."

"Understood." Celes smiled, "Then I will assume that Wuyuan's testimony is valid."

Seedling, who had relieved the suspected crisis, twitched the corners of his mouth.

"Hey—do you believe it like this?" Black and White Bear looked extremely dissatisfied, "You group of freed generations are always like this. When you encounter problems, you always sit still and wait for death, and you always use procrastination and so on. Numbing myself for the reasons, thinking that things will always get better one day, and then wishful thinking, to imagine... In fact, there will be no good development at all!" It waved its hand violently, "No one will like it at all. This kind of standard ending like a fairy tale that has long been expected! Boring! Uninteresting! No information! No one will be satisfied!"

"Everyone?" Wuqie narrowed her eyes keenly, and she asked, "Who do you mean by 'everyone'?"

"I've been thinking about it for a long time. The environment, characters, and time and place... all kinds of reasoning elements have been gathered, why hasn't cannibalism appeared yet?" Black and white bear turned a deaf ear to Wuqie's question, thinking passionately uttered its speech, "Finally, I got the answer!"

It leaned forward, and the bear face that was half cute and half ferocious was so close that it almost touched their eyes.

"There is still one element missing, and that is - motivation."

The cold air suddenly rose, rushing up from the soles of the feet, and the unreasonable coldness swept across the whole body.

"A motivational video for the 78th freshmen of Hope's Peak Academy, who is the lucky super high school class Makoto Sapling."

The video is playing slowly, it seems that the recording environment is not satisfactory, the noise of electric current is constantly coming from the ear, and the snowflakes are scattered and strobe on the screen, which makes the picture being played a little unreal.

Yes, this must be fake.

Naegi said this to herself in her heart.

But even as he said this, his eyes couldn't move away from the video being played.

"Sapling Makoto, who was lucky enough to be selected into Hope's Peak Academy, has a very beautiful family, a gentle mother, a steady father, and a lovely younger sister.

"They learned that Makoto Naegi was lucky enough to be a student of the legendary elite academy - Hope Peak, and they were very proud and happy for you, and because they were worried that you would feel uneasy before entering school, they specially recorded a A video from a family member encouraging you."

Seedling's parents and younger sister Sapling appeared in the picture.

"Cheng-jun, take care of yourself at school."

"Ah Cheng, Dad is proud of you."

"Brother, come on, new school!"

It was a happy, harmonious and very warm scene.

Seedling blinked, and then blinked again, and managed to hold back the tears welling up in his eyes, and his brows and eyes softened unconsciously.

The moment he relaxed, the voice of Black and White Bear changed.

"However, this wonderful family is now beyond recognition."

Still the same background, the scene inside the seedling's house, the warm lights disappeared, and the relatives who were connected by blood disappeared, only the destroyed furniture, broken windows, and blood splattered on the wall remained. .

Seedling's pupils shrank suddenly.

"Ah! How did it become like this? It was such a happy family, why did your house become like this, Ms. Sapling?" The nasty narrator pretended to be shocked and shouted, "Ah! Ah! Ah~ How infuriating and frightening! Who the hell? Who the hell is—”

The screen suddenly changed, and a tall and tall figure gradually appeared in the firelight all over the sky.

There are countless helicopters hovering above the scarlet sky, and guns stick out black holes and point at the figure in the center of the ground. The blood and fire are inseparable, as if there are people falling down in the battlefield all the time... That person has been standing in the original place Without any movement, he was so calm and leisurely as if he was wandering around his own back garden.

The dark green windbreaker fluttered, and he raised his head to look at the sky. Under the slightly curly white hair was a pair of quiet gray-green pupils.

The person filming seems to be in extreme fear, the chattering of teeth can be heard in the earphones, and the picture is shaking all the time.

"You, you devil—" This is the cry that finally broke down emotionally, "Why don't you die! Die! Die! Die soon!"

The scene flipped, and it was the man who finally dropped the camera, and then a man with a hand-held bazooka appeared in the inverted shot, rushing towards Komaeda Nagito frantically.

"Devil? Are you calling me?"

Seedling heard a chuckle, a familiar laugh, just like the kind of casual and fascinating chuckle every time they rubbed each other.

When he saw Komaeda turn around, he stood there without evading at all, and then stretched out his hands to embrace the rushing man.

"boom--!"

A brilliant explosion.

But the one who died was not Komaeda Nagito who was standing in the launch coordinates, but the man who exploded directly on the spot due to a malfunction when the launch trigger was pulled.

"Click."

Naegi's earphones fell to the ground.

He stared blankly at the white-haired young man who was laughing happily in the picture, his face lost color little by little, and he stared blankly at the person he seemed to have never known with brand-new strange eyes.

As if predicting that he had lost the ability to hear outside sounds at this time, the screen went dark, and bright red characters appeared immediately.

"A sad tragedy befalls Sapling-kun's family, and his lover Komaeda Nagito-kun stands on the same side as the maker of this tragedy, constantly bringing despair-level destruction and darkness to this world. Why did it become like this?

"The truth will be published after graduation."
