...There was a hitogata for every student.
The curse that was supposed to return to the kids who'd done orikiri-sama--
the hitogata took all of it in their place.
And as a result, the hitogata ended up breaking somewhere.
The ones that didn't break were only of those students who hadn't been involved in the curse.
From the moment he'd decided to return the curse,
*****
Naru intended to do this...
M: ...Naru!
N: How'd it go?
M: They're all okay!
They all said they haven't done orikiri-sama.
*****
N: I see.
M: ...Hey.
M: If the hitogata were going to take people's places, couldn't you have just made a hitogata of Matsuyama?
N: ...Four things going after one person or after 600 people--
which do you think is safer?
*****
M: ...Sheesh.
You could've told me that's what you were thinking.
N: Transferring a curse onto hitogata is difficult.
Even for Lin, it's not possible to be sure he could save everyone.
M: (That's not what I meant.)
...But
if I'd known, I would never have said such mean......
Murderer
N: ......I'm sorry.
*****
N: I said some cruel things.
N: You're quickly caught up in other people,
N: so it must've been very difficult for you.
I'm sorry.

M: -----
...No fair......!
*****
M: I... I was thinking about apologising
M: so your saying it first is definitely not fair!
M: You're always like that, taking the best parts!
They're so cute together. ^o^
