[Danganronpa] Flock of sheep

"When I'm thinking about something, or when my hands are idle, I will habitually take a scalpel and carve something nearby."

The student status referee is over, and the final murderer is Owada.Once again they witnessed the cruel execution method of the black and white bear, and another classmate was killed in front of their eyes.

... Rather than killing him, it is better to say that he was dehumanized in an absurd way.

Monokuma handed the Owada butter to Yuki according to its previous agreement with Yuki: "Come, the corpse you want to study."

Teak held the butter made by her classmates herself, neither holding nor throwing.

She thought that her attitude towards execution had lost her initial fear, but it turned out that she was still too naive.Teak's expression stinks when he holds the butter, which can almost be called "angry".

Others still couldn't tell whether the resentment shown by Teak was because the monokuma who had agreed to hand over her corpse for research tricked her, or because monokuma had cruelly punished their classmates, and teak couldn't see it would be so angry.

Teak's cynicism was replaced by deep boredom, and she didn't communicate with other people, and left alone after the execution.

Not only did everyone not get used to the student referee brought to them for the second time, but the shadow that enveloped them became even deeper.After they left the referee court, they said goodbye in twos and threes, no one was in the mood to eat, and went back to their respective rooms to rest one after another.

Early the next morning, Teak rarely showed up in the restaurant on time: "I think we should first check whether there is an escape route in this academy. Maybe we didn't explore fully enough during the first inspection, and there are escape methods that we missed. possible."

Most people accepted Teak's proposal.Frustrated by the death of their companions, they regained their motivation and went to explore the school excitedly.

Teak is equally involved.

In other words, it was precisely because she wanted to explore the academy, and in order not to make her actions appear abrupt, she mobilized everyone to explore.

Another news is that they found the "relic" left by the dead Fujisaki: a laptop loaded with Fujisaki's "alterego".

When they found this computer, Yuki didn't know which corner to search for a gap seriously. In order to inform Yuki who didn't know where to go, they threw the errand work to Naegi Makoto.

...There is always a feeling that since Teak is so interested in Makoto ♂, if he takes the initiative to deliver the sacrificial lamb seedling to his door, Teak will definitely appear excitedly...

I haven't realized that I have been equated with a lamb in the eyes of others, and the good old Naegi doesn't feel reluctant... It's just that the herbivore is a little nervous at the thought of meeting Yuki alone.

It didn't take long to find Teak, but it took him a lot of time to prepare mentally to go in and face Teak face to face.

Teak is in a classroom.

In this classroom, all the windows were also sealed with steel plates, leaving no gaps.Teak stood on the table cautiously, and reached out to check every corner of the steel plate that blocked the window.

It seems that there is no gain.She jumped down from the desk, and Naegi saw her overly focused profile.Teak's hand touched the bottom of the steel plate, and suddenly her movements stopped.

Teak's hand stayed on the lower left corner of the steel plate for a long time before retracting.After that, her expression became more solemn, and she just stared at the steel plate in a daze for several minutes.

Seedling stared at her secretly for a long time, but she still hadn't regained her composure, and finally stepped forward to interrupt her: "Well, Yuki-san, everyone has something to ask you to come over..."

The moment he spoke, Yuki turned his head like a frightened wolf, with a fierce look in his eyes, and Miaomu really felt the murderous look in her eyes.

However, after seeing that it was a seedling, Hikaru Yuki did not return to the usual ease of making jokes with him, and stared at the seedling with a sullen face for several seconds:

"……is it you?"

"What, what?"

"...Forget it, it's nothing." Teak's expression was very unnatural, and he couldn't quickly hide his gaffe.Seedling wanted to find out what Teak found under that steel plate, and was almost ready to go to the steel plate, Teak glared at him: "What are you still doing? Didn't you come to call me over, lead the way. "

The sapling who was reprimanded for no reason didn't feel displeased, but ran in front of Hikari Yuki in embarrassing steps.Although he didn't know what Yuki Hikari was angry about, Naegi apologized first, and then asked reassuringly, "What happened, Yuki-san?"

Although teak had dissipated most of his hostility, he was still somewhat uncoordinated.She pursed her lips and remained silent for a while, halfway through the seedlings looked at her a few times, and teak remained silent.

She then met alterego and discussed countermeasures with the girls.The serious expression remained until the afternoon, and finally she chose Wuqie: "I have something to discuss with you."

The two solemnly went to the bathhouse without a camera.

Naegi watched Teak and Kiriki walk into the bathhouse one after the other, feeling suddenly complicated.

Teak does not choose to discuss anything with seedlings.

Is it because she doesn't trust him yet, or because she doesn't think he's ever reliable enough to share others' worries?

Some, though only a few, did appear,

A little unwilling.

Teak walked into the bathroom and greeted Alterego first.She opened her mouth to Kirito, but felt that something was wrong, and closed Alterego's notebook again.

"What I'm going to say next is groundless, it's all based on my imagination, you can listen to it, or you can forget it after listening to it as a joke."

"Go ahead."

Wuqie's tone was flat: "I will use my own judgment to decide whether to believe your content."

Teak nodded: After all, it's groundless, it's best... I hope you won't be misled by my thoughts.

"It's like this." Teak started the topic: "You know I have the habit of carving and drawing with a scalpel. It's not intentional, it's just a habit."

"Then, I suddenly thought. It was really just a random thought, probably because I felt "I became proficient" when I was sewing the human body, and suddenly I had an absurd idea: "Should I look for other places in this school?" , maybe it left traces of what I carved.” "

"It was all by chance that I found this mark. The classroom I chose at random is in the inner corner of the bottom end of a steel plate. If it weren't for my fumbling on the spur of the moment, it would be absolutely impossible to find the scratch."

"How do you know it's the scratch left by your scalpel?" Wu cut interrupted the flustered teak, at this time she lost even the orderly analysis in the past, and the content of the expression was a bit messy.

Teak's strange expression was aggravated a lot.She was silent to Wuqie for a long time, and said unwillingly:

"...Well. I know the nicks of the scalpel best. Other objects are not as sharp as the scalpel, and you have to use a lot of force to leave marks on the steel plate. The light and fluffy lines can only be left by the scalpel of."

After a pause, she looked away:

"Besides, it's not a single mark, but a word carved with a scalpel. That scratch... the content it carved is "Takaki Hikari likes Naegi Makoto". "

Wuqie's hesitation flashed past: "It sounds like the content of a child's prank."

"I think so too. It is absolutely impossible for me to write this kind of thing myself, unless..." Teak Hikari's voice lowered, and Fogger listened carefully to her repeating: "No, impossible, absolutely impossible", Teak was confused For a while, Wuqie was also silent.Then teak cleared his mind and continued:

"First of all, I don't have the memory of engraving this content in my memory, and it is impossible for me to write such naive content myself. So I have the following inferences:"

1. Someone took my scalpel and carved this in the corner.

"But the chances are too low. First he needs to sneak into my room, open my locked tool box, and put everything back in place. The reason he stole my scalpel is just To carve a prank in a place where no one will find it."

Teak shook his head: "It doesn't make sense, whether it's the reason for doing it or the technology needed to do it, it doesn't make sense."

Wuqie nodded: Go ahead.

2. This is the motive that Monokuma left for me (or someone else) on purpose.

"This is the most likely. Before Wuyuan died, my toolbox was not with me. Monokuma had plenty of time to open the box and engrave this passage."

"But the reason why he did this doesn't make sense. According to the motivations given to us by the black and white bears in the past two times, it should be a fairly frank way, and it will tell everyone something. It's not something like this stingy, intentionally hidden content. .”

"If it's motivation, without my whim this time, I wouldn't be able to discover this passage, and the "motivation" engraved here would have no meaning of existence.Having said that, killing people because of a confession is more childish than pranking.Neither me nor Makoto Naegi can kill each other with a single sentence. "

"It's also possible that they are preparing to show others to complete the love killing." Wuqie added.

"That problem is back to the original point." Teak pressed his forehead: "The motivation must first be shown to others before it is meaningful. The words engraved in the dark are too uncertain, and even until the end of the game, it may not be true." Being discovered. Such an ambiguous motive is unqualified, and the black and white bear should not make such a low-end mistake.

This content is more like a "hint" than a "motivation".If this passage does not come from my own confession, other people's meaning of writing it represents only a child's mischievous hint. "

Wuqie thought in silence.

Yuki asked, "Is there any possibility of omission?"

"There is one."

Wuqie replied: "It was carved by yourself - when you didn't even know it."

Teak's face was livid, and he said firmly in a low voice: "Impossible."

"A long time ago, I made up my mind."

"Although I don't know what your talent is, Wukiri, but I have seen no fewer life and death partings than you."

"I will not maintain too deep a bond with anyone, and I will not take the initiative to like someone."

"Where's the seedling?" Wuqie raised his eyebrows.

"Well, he's interesting. I think so. But he's not going to make me break the rules and join in, and I won't write such childish content because of him..."

"Subjectively, it is impossible for me to write this text."

"What about the objective aspect? For example, you carved it yourself when you didn't even know..."

"...This brings up another issue."

The corners of Teak's mouth were lowered.

"Let's assume I wrote it myself. . . . and the writing habits of that notch . . . are very similar to mine."

"Writing habits can't explain anything." Wuqie said: "It's not that difficult to imitate other people's handwriting, especially something that is difficult to control, as long as you imitate a few features ambiguously."

Teak stared at Yukiri, who was taken aback for a moment.

"What's the point of the "others" here deliberately imitating my handwriting? "

"We've just met each other not long ago, and we haven't seen each other before. First rule out the possibility of knowing other people's writing habits."

"So, if you want to imitate my handwriting, you first need to get a lot of my writing samples, and it's better to figure out my lettering habits. The mere numbers I carved on the wooden table are not enough for reference."

"Besides, not how they imitated my handwriting, but why they did it.—why?"

"Going to great lengths to get my scalpel and imitating my handwriting just to play a prank on me?"

Both of them realized the absurdity of the matter and fell silent together.

"Everything above is based on the premise of "I can't possibly like Makoto Naegi". "

Until Teak Hikaru broke the silence again.

"Continue to the previous hypothesis. The hypothesis is indeed "I", and I "like" Naegi Makoto. "

She scratched her hair a little irritably: "If I really like Makoto Naogi, then it is not impossible for me to leave this text. "

teak light said:

"If I really like "passing" seedlings, the next association will become very scary. "

Seemingly aware of something, Kyoko also lowered the corner of her mouth.

"After eliminating all the impossible, what remains, no matter how incredible, must be the truth."

This sentence that the great detective said suddenly appeared in her mind.

Unbelievable... huh?

The author has something to say: the agreed-upon reasoning elements and plot changes have appeared, um

The relationship progressed quickly, but it was all a week's relationship

Now the second week's teak's favorability with seedlings has been cleared (Tan Shou)
