Chapter 71



"So, no, it is really like this..." Makoto Naegi sat beside Jushin Byakuya's bed and sighed with his eyes downcast.

He was in a coma when the incident happened and only learned about it afterwards.

In fact, after reading the files of the 77th batch of students, I was surprised to find that Nagito Komaeda would become a member of the desperate class, not to mention the others. Because no matter from the teacher or other classmates who had communicated with him, Nagito Komaeda was a person who was very obsessed with hope.

However, he said that he believed in the idea that "the greater the despair, the stronger the hope", which actually explained all of this. After all, during his time at school, this person did a lot of things for the so-called hope. The suspension incident in the file was exactly like this.

"If this was the plan of Nagito Komaeda and Monokichi Tokugawa from the beginning... I have to say, they are really scary," said Hibikiri Kirikiri.

Makoto Naegi had no idea about this. He just smiled bitterly and said, "But why doesn't Senior Monoyoshi come to seek help from me and us..."

Tied up like a mummy with bandages, Jushin Byakuya asked, "Do you think the Future Agency is trustworthy?"

Makoto Naegi choked and thought about how they got into a stalemate. Wasn't it because there was an undercover agent from the Desperate Party inside the Future Agency?

"Moreover, those desperate leaders were his classmates." As a super high school level detective, Kirikiri Hibiki would not ignore the possible emotional connection in the case, and she said this quite rationally.

Makoto Naegi opened his mouth, hesitated, and still didn't say anything.

At least the fact that is in everyone's eyes right now is that the 77th biochemical was in despair, and then it was solved by Nagito Komaeda who was undercover from the beginning.

Komaeda Nagito and Tokugawa Monokichi were natural allies of the Future Organization from the beginning. They stayed in the Despair Party to pretend to be in despair in order to resolve the so-called despair.

Although the world is still in chaos, at least the most terrifying part has been removed, and "Black and White Bear" has also been solved by AlterEgo.

(Of course, the "Black and White Bear" that appeared in the future agency in front of everyone was played by Kitsunesuke, so the so-called solution by AlterEgo was just an illusion created by Kitsunesuke. But it doesn't make any difference, anyway, the Black and White Bear AI was already dealt with by Shibai. Kitsunesuke has absolutely no worries when he takes action.)

Although it seems like this on the surface, is it really like that... Makoto Naegi swallowed the doubts in his heart.

Noticing Naegi Makoto's expression, Kirikiri Hibiki couldn't help but fall into thought again.

As a detective, compared to the still ignorant Makoto Naegi, Kirikiri Hibiki is more accustomed to pulling out the strings and putting the facts in front of everyone.

It was she who initially raised the question, "Are the 77th class members really in despair?" Later, when Makoto Naegi said that it was impossible for Senior Monoyoshi to be like that, she did not refute it but actually started the relevant investigation.

The reason why such doubts and questions arise is that Kirikiri Hibiki discovered the pattern of action of the 77th generation of students in the first year - the most obvious and least noticed point is that whenever there are problems, big or small, in the future organization, the Desperate Party will have some "civil war" to consume its combat power.

This alone was not enough, and the details found by Kirikiri Hibiki in the middle could not become the key evidence. Until... the senior Monokichi mentioned by Makoto Naegi appeared.

Just as no one noticed the pattern of the actions of the 77th generation of the Desperate Party, no one realized one thing. If they were really desperate, why would the 77th generation of the Party appear in the ruined base of the Future Organization?

What are they here for? Are they here to take advantage of this opportunity to defeat the Future Agency? Or are they here to save Tokugawa Monokichi?

Are they...really in despair?

Kirikiri Hibiki had to admit how unacceptable her guess was, and she did have some emotional bias towards this answer. And if nothing unexpected happened, the clues to confirm this answer would appear in the next few days.

But now, "Compared to all this, I'm more puzzled. We all experienced the earthquake together, so why is Jushin the only one lying here?" Kirikiri Hibiki asked a sharp question.

"I'm also surprised. This guy clearly experienced an explosion before. And now he's standing here completely intact." The Mummy, Jushin Byakuya, added with gritted teeth.

"Wow, is this luck?" Kirikiri Hibiki complained in a dry voice.

Makoto Naegi covered his face and said in a slightly subtle tone: "Please don't say this word in front of me again. I have some psychological shadows now..."

At this point, Jushin Byakuya completely ignored Makoto Naegi's words, and a complex expression appeared on his bandaged face. "Although Japan itself is an earthquake-prone area, it just happened that such a strong earthquake occurred in that location at that time..."

"As long as we predict it in advance, there will be no problem." Kirikiri Hibiki thought for a moment, "With that mechanic here, it should be easy to predict an earthquake, right? And before that, Tokugawa Monokichi caused the explosion, so it can be explained that the explosion caused the earthquake."

Kirikiri Hibiki did not face such a scene directly, so her feelings were not as deep as those of Jugami Byakuya. God knows how Jugami Byakuya, who is always rational, felt when he saw the crack of the earthquake appear right under Nagito Komaeda's feet and then solved the Despair Party at that moment.

Now that Kirikiri Hibiki gave such an explanation, Jugami Byakuya naturally accepted it. Compared to metaphysics, science is easier to accept.

On the second day after Jugami Byakuya was recuperating, the First Division of the Future Agency sent a message that the 77th Despair Party, who were originally imprisoned, had disappeared. There was no damage inside the prison, but the surveillance camera suddenly broke down for some unknown reason, so the perpetrators were not captured on camera.

I feel like this style of painting is a little familiar. Just when Makoto Naegi was puzzled, Kirikiri Hibiki's lips curled slightly and she closed the book in front of her. "The answer is already in front of you."

"Sometimes, your intuition can be quite valuable." said Hibiki Kirikiri.

Makoto Naegi: ???

Shibai sat on a sofa in a deserted residential area, listening to Kitsunesuke's report. After confirming that his classmates were safe, he breathed a sigh of relief, "Okay, let's change the world."

Kitsunesuke: “…………”

Kitsunesuke: "Mr. Judge, you..."

Shi Bai tilted his head slightly, raised his hands in a gesture of surrender, and said in a cute tone: "We agreed that I don't have a broken knife this time, and you are not allowed to report on current affairs."

Kitsunesuke wanted to swallow back the sadness and rejection in his heart, but he couldn't hold back in the end, "But you were hit by a bullet--!!!"

Shi Bai said in a very calm tone: "He was just hit by a bullet, he is not really dead."

Kitsunesuke almost screamed in Shibai's mind, "But! In order to protect Makoto Naegi, you can't show it too obviously. You almost completely bore the impact of the explosion! Otherwise, otherwise..."

Shi Baian said, "Look, I'm fine now."

The body of Fu Ni Shen will not be broken by a simple bullet or explosion. As long as the spiritual power is sufficient, Shi Bai can easily heal himself. This world is not like the previous world with special abilities, so simple physical damage will not cause terrible consequences to Shi Bai. He even took advantage of this.

Even though it hurts, it still hurts... Shibai thought casually.

Kitsunesuke was completely at a loss for words with his own judge, so he could only ask dryly, "Then, then... are you planning to leave like this...?"

"The Komaeda guy will help me explain it." Shibai rubbed his cheeks and said with a blank face, but in the slightly smiling tone of Monoyoshi Masamu, "Anyway... I am lucky."

Luck is not so easy to die, and he who planned so many things on his own will probably be targeted by everyone.

Shibai thought so, but he forgot that the credibility of Nagito Komaeda, who had deceived everyone together with him, had already fallen to the lowest point. He also ignored how real and terrible his acting skills were.

Of course, he would only know all this when he had the chance to return to this world.

Shi Bai closed his eyes, feeling the weightlessness in his body. When he opened his eyes again, he once again appeared in the small golden sphere space.

Compared to the weakness he felt the last time, his mental and spiritual state seemed to be a little better this time.

Kitsunesuke stared at the furry ears on his judge's head that were unconsciously twitching twice, and said in a wronged voice: "Okay, I won't report it to the higher-ups this time... But next time, if Master Shibai does something extreme like this again, I will, I will--!"

Kitsunesuke found that he couldn't say any threatening words at all, and couldn't help but burst into tears in his heart, "Mikazuki-sama, your premonition has come true. I can't control the judge at all! When can you come back?"

"…Compared to these, Kitsunesuke, can you determine and capture the coordinates of other worlds?" Shibai interrupted Kitsunesuke, his expression suddenly became extremely serious, an emotion that Kitsunesuke had never seen on Shibai's face.

"Master Shibai?"

"Is it okay?" Shi Bai asked again in a tough tone.

Kitsunesuke puffed out his furry little chest and said, "Of course! As long as I get the government's approval and authorization, I can even determine the coordinates of the space-time chaos!... It just may take some time." Perhaps because he felt guilty, Kitsunesuke's voice sounded particularly low.

"…What if we don't rely on the government?" Shibai asked. Seeing Kitsunesuke's confused expression, Shibai lowered his eyes, and his originally smooth nails suddenly became longer. He gently scratched his wrist, and the golden red blood dripped down, but at a certain height, it turned into golden particles and dissipated in this space.

Shibai is now just a soul. Logically, he should not have substances like blood in his body. In fact, Shibai only managed to do this with the help of his monster grandmother's tricks.

Shi Bai asked in a coaxing tone: "Can you feel it? At that location... an aura very similar to mine..."

Perhaps Wuji's luck still remained in Shibai. The person he had been looking for for so long actually felt her presence the moment she left that world.

"The child who is connected to my blood..."

Shi Bai lowered his eyes, and the memories before coming to Shi Zheng came flooding back at this moment. That was one of the rare times he and his sister quarreled.

[Sister, do you know about the disappearance of God?

I had never thought of this possibility before... I just thought that I didn't keep a close eye on her and that's why she got lost accidentally.

But a month ago, current affairs came to my mind and I suddenly thought of this.

What if she wasn't lost, but disappeared? 】

[…What kind of existence is strong enough to be a half-demon? Even though I was still young, I was a monster with my own name.]

Do you know what you are doing now?

You are not my little sister, you are not a half-demon with the blood of most monsters! You are just a human, a human with pretty good spiritual power!

Do you know what the chances are of dying if you do this?

Do you know what "awakening" means? ! Forcefully stimulating the demon blood in your body, no matter how gentle grandma's method is, it will only continue to devour your human part bit by bit in the end! You are no longer a human being! And this is the best outcome! 】

[——But only by doing this will I have a chance to find her.]

Ah... After so long, finally, finally he saw the hope of finding his sister, and realized that his choice was not wrong. Shi Bai's voice was very gentle, but the emotion contained in it was no less.

Kitsunesuke came back to his senses from his stiffness and asked silently: "Why don't you seek help from the current politics, Lord Judge of the Gods..."

But after asking, Kitsunesuke realized that the government’s top priority now is to save its own world, at least for now - and it will not put resources on other events.

Moreover, as a shikigami who is quite knowledgeable about space and time, Kitsunesuke can vaguely determine that location... That is a chaotic flow of space and time that can change the coordinates at any time, and those who exist in it... are very likely to be the enemy's time travel army!

Looking at the inquisitor whose expression was still indifferent, with only his vertical pupils narrowed into a thin line to barely reveal a little of his current emotions, Kitsunesuke fell silent again. He recalled the request made to him by Lord Mikazuki, who seemed to have anticipated everything at the moment.

Ice-blue data flashed across the fox's eyes. Kitsunesuke, who would never betray Tokimasa, said in a mechanical tone, "I understand. I will help you capture and determine the coordinates. Once the final result is that the other party is determined to be an enemy, I will immediately notify Tokimasa and send you back."

"Please continue with the mission, Lord Shibai. I need a long-term stable coordinate that is not affected, and you must ensure your own safety. Only in this way can I not be distracted and concentrate on determining the location."

From the beginning, Shibai had never thought of seeking help from Kitsunesuke, otherwise he would not have revealed the matter of his sister until now. However... when he detected that extremely subtle breath, Shibai realized that it was impossible for him to avoid Kitsunesuke (Jizheng) to determine the coordinates.

And he had to admit that his knowledge of time and space was not professional enough, and if he missed this opportunity, he might never get the next chance again. Opportunities are rare, which is why Shibai immediately showed weakness and sought help from Kitsune.

But Kitsunesuke was surprised that he gave in so easily. Seeing his judge's two cat tails stop wagging, as if to express his doubts, Kitsunesuke sighed, and the cold data in his beast eyes slowly disappeared, and his furry fox face revealed a complexity similar to that of a human.

Kitsunesuke covered his eyes with his paws and spoke in the sharp tone he usually used in Honmaru, "Please stop being cute, Master Shibai! As an excellent Kitsunesuke, I will never be seduced by you!"

Shibai tilted his head, his two furry cat ears moved, and his expressionless face was full of confusion about what Kitsunesuke said.

The author has something to say: When writing fan fiction, you have to pay attention to balancing the understanding of the original work between those who have read it and those who have not. I dragged the pace for this reason before, but the actual result was that I didn't do it well on both sides (although it was my personal reason). So after the pace was changed back later, I didn't do that.

Those who have read the original novel will get the plot from the previous chapter. For those who haven’t, I’ll briefly explain it here.

Jabawok Island: This is the island where the 77th generation of students lived in the original novel. They killed each other on it, and after everything was over, although it was not specifically mentioned, they should have returned to this island. The two lucky ones here (Komaeda and Monokichi) both accidentally went there, and it was described in the previous article, so it was possible that everyone went to the island together after everything was over.

Monokuma: The absolute villain, everything has been done, he just hides this point. Then there is Kitsunesuke, who I wrote about before.

Earthquake: Regarding the sudden earthquake, my description in the 60th chapter is [The incarnation of luck brings misfortune, meteorites, earthquakes, typhoons, everything appears around him, just a random step, one ring after another, and it becomes a huge misfortune that befalls everyone.] Yes, this is the terrible luck of Nagito Komaeda, and the earthquake has nothing to do with it.

Nagito Komaeda's luck is very subtle. He feels extremely [unlucky], but gets strong [luck] in return. For example, when he was a child, he was on a plane and encountered kidnappers (unlucky), but a meteorite fell from the sky and the kidnappers died (lucky). After that, the plane crashed and his parents died (unlucky), but Komaeda got a large inheritance (lucky).

In the worldview of Danganronpa, the concepts of "hope" and "despair" are very important. The source of despair is Junko Enoshima, and hope is Nagito Komaeda. Nagito Komaeda will do anything for hope. In the game, Nagito Komaeda almost wiped out the 77th generation of students for this reason.

So, let's just let him be the hope here. Shibai is not enough, Makoto Naegi is not enough. He is the only one left.

His luck in becoming "Hope" (the luck of fulfilling his most persistent wish) would bring him extremely terrible misfortune, and the earthquake was just the beginning. Even for Nagito Komaeda, after completing this task and getting such "luck", it would be normal for him to die immediately the next second.

Then the most interesting part comes. The misfortunes that happen to Nagito Komaeda often affect the people around him... hehe.

ps: Actually, I personally don’t like to explain too much in the dialogue. This only shows that my writing skills are not good enough to support everyone to understand. If I can’t even reach the basic point of writing that readers can understand, I will feel very failed... That’s why I used to explain it in the text instead of in the dialogue, and the result was still (.

PPS: Next world JOJO! JO5 and Kotobuki.

I believe everyone should have gotten my order from my cover. There are actually five people on the card behind the cover, but for some reason I blocked one person.

Then I remember that the very beginning of this story was not Tsurumaru's, and then my friend happened to help me draw the characters. She showed me the draft, and I found that it could be used as the cover, and then I told her to draw whoever she wanted to see appear, and then I happily wrote it in this order 23333.

ppps: Shibai finally looked a bit like a human, but as soon as the news about his sister came out, all his efforts were ruined. It turns out that he is still a child.

Kitsunesuke: No one can resist a cat! No one! Even if I'm a fox!
