February 3, 11:00 am
Supreme Court - Defendant Lobby Five

"Kazuma-sama, are you ok?"

"I'm fine..."

"Asougi!"

"What happened this time?"

...........

"Naruhodo..."

"Have you ever felt this scared, that you want to give up so bad, and stay away from everyone and be alone...?"

"Um, no?"

"Plus, that's a stupid question to ask...!"

I know... it's stupid for me to ask that...

"How did this trial have to end up like this...?"

"Remember you played the victim in the school?"

"Everyone never knew until you became popular."

"It wasn't I who became popular."

"They all knew I was related to the case, that's all."

"Remember you said this in court?"

"It's all over for me..."

"I'll just remain like this for the rest of my life..."

"Traumatized... terrified... and crying inside..."

...!

"If you really thought it was over, then why give up...?"

"You... don't get it... do you..."

"Recall the second testimony you gave to me."

"I was knocked out."

"But when I woke up with a headache, I saw Legal Assistant Mikotoba. She told me to rest before I could start to investigate."

"An hour later, when I was still asleep, I had a nightmare."

"A terrifying nightmare that never faded away..."

"I thought I stopped thinking about it until when I woke up in a panic."

"Don't you know how hard it is to... forget about an incident... your parents were related to...?"

"I can tell how you feel..."

"Even if you were about to give up..."

"You still had me."

"You said that you'll never give up."

"So no matter how much you were crying inside, everyone in court believes in you...!"

"But when I was investigating..."

"Everyone mentioned it..."

"They were talking about it..."

"That's because you carry the sword around."

"Karuma...?"

"They all think you're related, so they're trying to ask if you were somehow related."

Now that you mention it...

It was true...

They wanted to know about... my past...

But it's scary when this starts to happen...

.......

I feel... a lot better now...
