"What catches you is the afterimage of past, what invites you is the false hope from the future, what truly waits for you is true despair of the present. These kids are so simple yet there hearts are full of so much darkness. They thought what they did that night, they are all going to be forgiven but they forgot karma is the real bitch, isn't that correct Marshal?" the viper thought while walking down on the street.
Hmm, I think it's about time Kazuto and Mochizuki's meeting. I wonder how my dear Mochizuki going to confront Kazuto and how Kazuto going to explain what's really going on. Oh! My sweet mother of Lord, this is so exaggerating. I never felt this much enthusiasm like ages." Viper thought.
Kazuto and Mochizuki meet each other in an alley which is completely lifeless. They both arrived almost the same time.
"It's been a long time, I never thought that I'm going to meet you like this. To be honest I don't want to get involved with you anyway possible." Mochizuki said.
"Is this the right time to go on about that? You called me because you want to talk about something. So can we come straight to the point." Kazuto said.
Mochizuki throws the letter towards Kazuto, which he received from the viper. And said, "just for a second, read this letter carefully it's not a joke, it's about someone's survival."
"Believe me, I am not taking any of these as a joke anymore, but first let me finish the letter first." Kazuto said.
After completing the letter Kazuto only thought of one thing, "this is all going according to someone else's plan. And this viper guy just having his fun watching us being played like a rat trapped in a cage. But wait a second! why he mentioned Mochizuki as someone like he knows him personally. And if he knows that I know what's going on, then he is a bad news to me, so for now Mochizuki must know the truth."
"I am going to be blunt with you Mochizuki, do you think this viper guy and the murderer are the same or two different individuals?" Kazuto asked.
Mochizuki replied, "No, I don't, cause this viper guy or whoever this person is occurred to me as a third person who is giving us clues about the murder. And I can't shake this feeling off, that someone from the four of you is the real murderer, it's reasonable for me to think knowing that how bad on terms you and your so called friends are. You all fucking hate each other guts, the only reason you guys are together because of feudalism. And I'm pretty sure you know what does that mean right!"
"The social system that existed during the middle ages in Europe in which people were given land and protection by a nobleman and had to work and fight for him in return. Are you implying that I'm that nobleman and the rest three of them are my loyal subjects, wow you never failed to amaze me, best friend!" Kazuto said while laughing a cynical laugh.
Mochizuki comes right in front of Kazuto's face and said," I'm not implying anything, I'm saying it, you get that. Now tell me what's going on."
"There is no point in hiding it from you anymore, sooner or later you are going to find out eventually. So, here is the truth Marshal was not the real target, it was Uchiyama. But someone turned the table around, and I think that was all doing someone from outside of the group. And don't forget about how he was killed, it's clear that the person had an old grudge on him." Kazuto said.
"Why you think Uchiyama was the original target?" Mochizuki asked.
"Cause he received a warning, that he was about to be murdered. Only I knew about that. And I took it as a child's prank, and we lost Hinode cause of it." Kazuto replied shamefully.
"I don't think that the murderer is from the group, it's definitely someone from the outside of the group." Kazuto said.
"Dude, you are not saving someone else's skin right? Wait a second! Are you the one....." Mochizuki mumbled.
"Are you the one what? Just say it already!" Kazuto said angrily.
"It was you who killed Marshal because he wasn't any use for you anymore right." Mochizuki asked.
"Just say a another word, and you are going to find yourself buried deep inside the depth of the ground, I'm tired of it. First Uchiyama and now you, you know what I'm done with this shit." Kazuto replied.
"There is no trusted observer than the one who suspects you, remember you are in my radar now." Mochizuki said.
"There is no point discussing about it with you, so just leave the topic already. You are coming to Hinode's funeral right." Kazuto said.
"Yes, I'm. No matter what happened you all were my friends from my past." Mochizuki said.
Finally the day arrived, when Hinode's soul finally putting into rest. For the final time the coffin's head lifted up for watching Hinode's face. But there is no dead body in the coffin, it's just a dummy wearing a tuxedo and there is also a paper glued on that dummy body. And the paper says," Uchiyama, you are next!"
