The next day Naomi woke up with a strange emptiness, she didn't even know what exactly she was missing, however she had this feeling, after getting up she sat over her bed for 15 minutes.
Her roomates had already managed to get up, Naomi shared a room together with Ryuoko Hirose and Masayo Sumeragi.
Ryouko: Are you all right Naomi-san?
Naomi: Yes, I'm just slightly dizzy, it's nothing serious.
Ryouko: Oh, I understand.
Actually, we are about to return.
Naomi: I'll get changed right away, and pack.
Yuuichi, on the other hand, woke up in surprise, it seemed to him that he shared a room with someone, however, there was no one on the other bed.
Misaki woke up noticing Michika pondering the whole situation
Misaki: Did you sleep at all?
Michika: Not at all, you seriously don't remember Tohru Ogata?
Misaki: No, I mean I don't remember him going to class with us.
Michika: Probably everyone has.
Me, I remember that Shion had bloody clothes, and then the blood seemed to disappear.
Misaki: I don't remember any of that.
Michika: It makes me wonder what happened to Shion, it didn't seem like she was faking.
In my opinion, it was sincere.
Misaki: Since she also came back, I guess no one would remember her death either.
Michika: Let's get this straight, Izumi is not Shion, Izumi is not guilty of anything.
Misaki: You really trust her?
Michika: Shion wouldn't say the same thing as her, by the way, we will check it in the coming days.
Misaki: Hopefully you are not wrong.
Michika: This is what should be done.
Over the next few days, Izumi discovered that her personal information had changed.
Indeed, she was no longer the biological daughter of Natsuhiko and Mayuko Akazawa, but an adopted one.
The identity of her "biological" parents was also unknown, so Izumi assumed the theory that Shion Urushibara might have been born into a very poor family, and her mother must have abandoned her.
However, she was surprised by the lack of any data about her early childhood; all she knew was that she had been adopted by the Akazawa family at some point, mainly because of her resemblance to their biological daughter.
Another shock that Shion/Izumi experienced was finding various strange substances in her locker.
She was home alone at the time, however, she suddenly heard someone's voice.
?: Surprised?
Izumi turned around and froze, it was a person who looked identical to her.
Izumi: Who are you? Are you responsible for the death of my parents?
And for the poisons?
Shion: I am Shion Urushibara,a, you are Izumi Akazawa
Izumi: So we are not the same person?
You are, after all, identical to me!
Shion: Maybe...
If I were you, I would think about going to the Minamiyashiki mansion this Saturday.
Izumi: Answer my question first.
Shion: Yes, I killed your parents, satisfied?
I also killed Yagami and sensei.
Do you want to know why?
Izumi: How could you!
Shion: And what, will you kill me in an act of revenge?
Try it, in the other drawer you have a knife.
Izumi hit Shion with her hand after which she felt pain in her head.
Shion: See? We are connected.
By killing me you will also kill yourself.
Izumi: Damn…
Shion: Remember to go to Chitose.
Otherwise you will die.
Izumi: Why?
Shion: You will find out on the spot.
Suddenly, someone knocked on the door.
Izumi went to open the door, it was Issei with a bottle.
Issei: I think it's yours Urushibara-san, I think I borrowed it from you, but I didn't know why.
Shion: Come on, kill him.
Izumi looked on Shion, Issei was confused.
Issei: Everything okay Urushibara-san?
Izumi: Yeah…
Thank you for giving me back this bottle.
Issei: You're welcome, I just don't know why I borrowed it from you.
Shion: To poison Tohru Ogata.
Izumi pretended she didn't hear that
Izumi: Surely you must have had your reason, and now if you'll excuse me, I don't have time, until tomorrow.
Izumi closed the door and looked hostilely at Shion.
Izumi: What have you done!
Shion: Right, I shouldn't have done that, now I wouldn't have to deal with you.
Izumi: What?
Shion: Never mind, I won't tell you.
Izumi: In that case, I won't go to the Minamiyashiki estate tomorrow.
We'll both die, right?
Shion: Whatever you want, I don't care.
I'll always come back
The next day, Naomi spoke with Kaya Igarashi and Yutaka Sakurai
Yutaka: Did you hear what happened yesterday?
Kaya: Aside from the fact that Urushibara broke a finger and fell down the stairs then nothing.
Yutaka: Didn't you really hear what happened yesterday around 1 a.m.?
Naomi: What happened?
Yutaka: There was an explosion at a gas station near Yomiyama.
20 people were killed.
Mostly employees, however, among them was an engineer,I think his last name was Ogata or something like that.
Naomi: Eh?
Naomi seemed to recognize the name from somewhere, so she engaged in conversation more vividly.
Kaya: Wait a minute, doesn't Asahina-san's older brother happen to work at one of these stations?
Yutaka: She is not in school today...
We will probably find out tomorrow.
Naomi: Isn't there someone else today besides her?
Kaya: Except for Miyuki, I think everyone is present.
Naomi: Strange, I thought there was one more student.
Yutaka: Maybe you just think that.
Kaya: By the way, since yesterday you somehow became sad, something happened?
Naomi: I had a slight argument with Misaki, but I think nothing else.
Kaya: Are you sure?
Naomi: Yeah, I just feel like that lately..
Michika was returning from a meeting with Kana and Yuuichi, at which time a car also pulled up in front of her.
It was a rather luxurious car, the chauffeur got out of it and told Michika that Mr. Sakutarou Anju wanted to talk to her.
Michika was at first assertive about this, but after thinking about it for a long time, she decided to get in.
Sakutarou: Michika Muneyoshi-san right?
Michika: Indeed, what do you want from me.
Sakutarou: It concerns me that you are working for Chitose at such an age.
I personally distance myself from her, but my clan has enough influence to spoil her blood, which is why the Anju clan takes a 20% fee for each transaction.
In fact, I have one request for you, stop working for Chitose, it is very risky, and after all, you have your whole life ahead of you.
Michika: Just how, I started working for her since I was 13 years old.
I carried suitcases packed with drugs, which were sent back to Russia via China anyway.
Sakutarou: If I were you, I would have turned her down the moment she offered it to you.
Michika: I owe her my life, and it's also possible that if my father had escaped unscathed he probably would have owed her his life as well.
Sakuratou sighed
Sakutarou: So you don't know anything.
Michika: About what?
Sakutarou: Come to the Anju mansion one day, and I'll explain everything to you..
Michika: When would I be able to?
Sakutarou: Even tomorrow.
Michika: I will consider it.
