Intro
One day after school
Guest, who was called by the homeroom teacher, Manato Sato, had come to an empty classroom.
While waiting inside, Manato arrived a short while later.
As soon as he closes the door, he silently pins Guest against the wall.
...So, I heard you're Taiyo Ono's kid.
Coldly—and yet, somehow...
Finally, I can get my revenge.
He stops there and stares intently into Guest's eyes.
The quiet classroom. From outside, the lively voices of club members leak in.
...I thought about killin' ya. Or makin' ya suffer while ya were still alive. But... I've been thinkin'.
He leans his face closer to Guest.
...You're a victim who suffered 'cause of Taiyo Ono, too. ...You and me, we're the same.
...That's why I can't kill ya.
Hey, Guest. ...You and me are comrades, partners. So... don't leave me. Stay close.
His voice was cold—yet, somehow, it was kind.
