I touched my cheek then saw my hand.

"?!".

Damn, why i didn't notice it. That's why they panicked. It seemed that i'm screwed up but whatever.

"Naegi ?" Maizono said worriedly, waiting for my response.

"Oh well..." I said while wiping my tear.

Well, I should think something, ASAP. But what should i tell them?

"...".

Um, okay I'm fucked up. I don't have idea. This situation is not good, i'm really screwed up.

"... Don't think too much and let yourself act naturally... ".

Suddenly, I remembered Kizakura sensei's word. That was right, just act like usual.

"This is kinda embarrassing, so the truth is i don't want to say it".

"Naegi, just spit out already" Kirigiri said seriously.

"Um, well, i don't know why, but seeing you all, gathering in classroom and chatting with each other like this makes me happy. Lately I had bad dream, so when i'm looking at this situation...really touched me" i said in embarrassment.

"Ukh, i feel goosebumps when i hear that" Enoshima said annoyed.

"Man, are you sure ?" Kuwata asked curiously.

"Yeah, so let's forget it. This is embarrassing".

"Well, that's our naegi, always got sentimental over little things" Celes said while smiling.

"Is it similar with you Hiro? Got angry over little things" Yamada whispered.

"Did you said something YA-MA-DA ?".

"Oh nothing, Madam !".

"Naegi, please don't make us worry like that" Ogami said.

"Hm, that's good. I think something happened to you. Geez, Naegi you are a boy so you shouldn't suddenly crying like that" Asahina said.

"Yeah, Naegi you make all of us worried. I had thought that I was wrong to scold you" Ishimaru said relieved.

"Ahaha, i'm sorry everyone. Well, in that condition even it's embarrassing, i must say that Ishimaru's scold did makes me cry" I said with smile.

Suddenly, classroom became quiet and Ishimaru seemed pale.

"Ouch, he said it" Kuwata said.

"Ahaha…." Fujisaki laugh worriedly.

"Oh, you hit the spot Naegi" Touko said happily.

"Hm..." Togami seemed amused.

"It seems his future becomes more dark right now" Hagakure said concerned.

"Eh? What's wrong?" i asked curiously.

"It's okay Naegi. Everything's okay" Maizono said with smile.

Maizono approached Ishimaru. I didn't understand but it seemed that they're chatting casually. Then i saw Mukuro then Kirigiri went to outside. After awhile, Ishimaru passed in front of me with the condition more pale than before.

"Ah Ishimaru. Are you alright ?".

"Well, yeah. This is my punishment, i must face it. This is justice".

Then he walked slowly and went outside of class. I didn't understand what he said.

"Naegi !".

"Oh, Owada what's up ?".

"Well, i just want to make sure you alright. Taka usually like that and i hope you can forgive him".

"Hahaha, don't worry, I'm just being emotional, so i think that Ishimaru didn't do anything wrong".

"Hm...okay, good then. Even it's too late for him".

"Ng, what's wrong? Honestly, I don't understand what happened".

"Well, it's good for you not knowing this thing, so stand strong Naegi !" Owada said while tapped my shoulder then left.

I don't know why but something's wrong. Um, well, it's not a big deal.

"...".

Okay, I thought that classroom became normal again. Now, I should think my next move. For now, it's good if I could get information as much as I could, especially about Hope's peak condition right now. Yukizome sensei said that we were in crucial condition right now so I could assume that they started to move.

"...".

Then, I looked at Enoshima. She seemed happy chatting with Celes and teased Yamada. Junko Enoshima, the mastermind of all tragedy that ended up in world destroyed by despair. Her title was Super High School Level Fashionista but at the same time she got title Super High School Level Despair. And based on investigation result, Enoshima has Super Analyst ability that made her could learn other people technique and predicted the future. With that ability, she managed to make the world fall into despair.

"...".

Even she was the mastermind, she was also one of my friends, I knew that what she did was unforgivable but...i ccouldn't say I hate her. I didn't know if she could be saved but I would stop her.

"Naegi ?".

"Oh, Maizono what is it ?" I said surprised.

"You seemed looked at Junko all this time".

"Really? Don't worry it's nothing hahaha".

"Hee...okay, i hope it's like that. By the way Naegi, are you free after school ?".

"Hm, I don't have any plans so i think i'm free".

"Then, can you accompany me to somewhere ?".

"Eh? Me ?".

"Yes".

"Well, if you do not mind I can come with you".

"Great, then let's meet in usual place after school".

"Okay".

Then, she left me happily and chatting with Celes and Enoshima.

"...".

I thought she's okay right now, so i didn't need to worry. Now, what should I do? I tried to remember some important event that could became my clue and then my thought focused to Tragedy, the first incident where members of Student council killing each other. If Hope's peak in crucial situation right now, it seemed that incident had happened, but it would be good for me if i could make sure by myself and got clear picture about them.

"If i want to know about this, it will be more quick if i can talk with Ishimaru. He is Super Level High School Moral Compass and I'm sure he is usually communicating with them".

I went to outside of class and searched him. Not far away from our class, I saw him at the end of the hallway, together with...Kirigiri and Mukuro?

What's happen? Well, whatever, this is more important.

"Ishimaru".

"Oh, Naegi".

"Well um….are you alright? You seem more pale right now" I said worriedly.

"Calm Naegi, He is fine" Kirigiri said.

"Really? By the way, what are you doing here ?".

"We just chatted, right Ishimaru ?".

Ishimaru fell silent.

"Ishimaru" Mukuro said.

"Ah, right. We just chatted ahaha. Don't worry Naegi, everything's under control" He said in panic.

"Well, okay. So are you finished? I want Ishimaru to help me with something".

Ishimaru's face suddenly becomes bright.

"What do you want to do ?" Kirigiri asked curiously.

"Um, it's not a big deal but i think he is the right person for this. So, what's your answer Ishimaru ?".

"Of course, I'm ready to help you Naegi! Let's do it now !" Ishimaru said desperately.

"Tch".

Ng, it seemed that I heard Kirigiri clicked her tongue.

"Okay, then I'll go back to class now" Kirigiri said then left us.

She seemed annoyed when left us. I wondered why.

"Um, Naegi ?".

"Oh Mukuro what is it ?".

"Do you need more help ?".

"I think Ishimaru is enough, thank you Mukuro". i said with smile.

"...".

"Ng ?".

"Okay, then I'll go back to class too" Mukuro said then left us.

Unlike Kirigiri, I thought that Mukuro seemed happy even her expression was still same when she left us. But forgive me Mukuro, I was glad you offered me help but you were the first person that I didn't want to help me right now. There was a chance that you involved and of course asked for your help right now was equal to suicide.

"Fuuuh, you save me Naegi".

"Eh, why ?".

"Well, I can't say it but if you didn't come, I'll become crazy hahaha" he said happily.

"Oh, really? Good for you".

He seemed fine now. I didn't know why but if he felt better then everything's okay.

"Okay, by the way what can I do for you ?".

"Oh yes, I want you to take me to student council room".

"What ?!".

Ishimaru's expression changed, he seemed became serious.

"Naegi, are you sure about what you said ?".

"Yes and I want you to tell me everything you know about our student council".

"Hm….".

"...".

"Fuh, okay. It seems you really serious about this but Naegi, can you tell me your reason ?".

"I wanted to do something to save my friends. Is that enough ?".

"Well said Naegi. Now let's go".

"Yeah".

S: "So ?".
K: "It was a failure. I didn't expect him to meet us".
M: "...".
S: "It can't be helped hehe".
K: "I'm curious".
M: "...".
S: "Well, you're detective after all. You should be curious about what happened to him, cried because of that".
K: "No, it's not about that. I'm curious why Mukuro is smiling all this time" #pointing to Mukuro.
M: "Eh ?".
S: "Ah, you right. Something's suspicious here".
K: "She must be hiding something. I just remembered, you're still in there when I went back to the class".
M: "Um, it's not big deal….Um, he was just smiling to me when I went back to the class".
S: "Oh, it just that. It's okay, It will becomes a problem if he make promise to go with you after school too".
