"Thank you, driver. I'll talk to you later."

Mao puts his hand on Cicito's shoulder as he tries to let go of Sei's hand, which he kept on Cicito's shoulder.

And I smiled at Cicito.

"Yes, sir"

In the immediate vicinity, Cicito, seeing Mao's merciful smile, rises bright red in his face and tries to leave the rest room.

"Driver."

On Cisito's back like that, Mao talks.

"Not really, don't be scared. She's a victim, too. As usual, treat him."

"Fear...?

Sai didn't know what Mao was talking about.

But when he hears such Mao's words, Cicito turns back on his heels, he takes Sai's hand and says:

"Oh, I like you, Changchun."

"... is, huh?

Suddenly, a confession from Cicito, from a boy you like.

Sai couldn't swallow the situation.

"Even people who are always serious and solid, because I know. Because I don't hate it."

"Ugh... yeah"

In the meantime, nod sai.

Something's wrong.

Anyone who likes Cicito should be Lily or Rona.

That's about it, I also know Sai who is oblivious to romance.

"Oh, you know, like..."

"Heh? Oh, I mean as a friend. I think you're a dear friend no matter what happens to Mr. Changchun."

It was the answer I expected.

Sai was glad he wasn't thrilled in vain.

But why say this now?

Cicito, just to say, walked straight out of the break room.

"Good for you."

Mao, who misses Cicito leaving the break room, tells Sai.

"... what is it?

"What? Someone told me they were friends. I even committed your murder."

As a matter of course, Mao says.

"... what are you talking about? I can't believe I killed... you killed me."

"That's right."

Naturally, Mao affirms.

"Why would you do that! And I can't believe I killed..."

"If you look at this, can you say the same thing?

Mao took out a pink tablet device and a dagger.

That was Sai's iGOD and the 'Mithrill Dagger' borrowed from Syndicate.

"Why did you..."

"It was in my inner pocket in my uniform. So why don't you let me know why you have this stuff?"

Mao asks, returning the tablet and dagger to Sei.

Sai received it and remained staring at it.

"... don't worry, we all know what's going on. You just got fooled and killed by him. There is no one to speak ill of you. He's locked up, too, and don't worry..."

"How does the chairman know about this?

Sai asked Mao the other way while trying to show him the tablet.

"Colle, if you don't kill people, you shouldn't get them. And the chairman knows about it. How so?

Sai decided to stop making the argument that he was not a murderer.

Neither will Syndicate's explanation of sin now.

Originally, it seems that Syndicate is not very attentive to what people think.

As a Sai individual, being badly told about Syndicate is pretty pissing, but focusing on it now doesn't seem to help Syndicate.

More than that, what needs to be done now is information.

How far does the Chairman know about the current situation?

Who is the chairman?

Why are you treating Syndicate like an eyewitness?

It's time to find out.

Mao is suspicious.

So is the tablet thing, but Cicito and Mao talk about Syndicate being locked up.

Um, Syndicate.

How did you do it?

Sai knows he's not the kind of person who can be easily locked up.

Sei decided she couldn't help Syndicate unless she knew about the chairman.

"I knew you'd killed people's dead ghosts... pathetically"

Mao, with an unfortunate face, stares at Sai and gently holds Sai's hand.

And I put love in my eyes.

Eye of mercy.

If, really, Sai was killing people and hurting them about it, Sai could have hugged Mao and repented.

Eyes that make you feel so inclusive.

Sai's softness.

I guess that's what Mao's after.

So I returned the tablet and the weapon to Sai.

To show the difference in power that it's okay to have trust and weapons.

Perhaps I'd like to keep someone on hand who is getting more level and stronger.

I want to manage it.

It seems from those thoughts...

Higher levels and stronger people can be dangerous but useful if used well.

Maybe Mao really thinks Syndicate threatened Sai to force him to kill Death Ghost.

Sai used to meet Mao in committee.

So, just kind words and eyes, I guess I decided I could be flexible.

In fact, Sei thought of Mao as the ideal woman who could think well about her opponent, who was gentle and tough on everyone, and think better about her opponent.

I also had respect. I also trusted him.

However, Sei was looking into Mao's eyes on the Syndicate he showed earlier.

The eyes are the opposite of the love that Mao usually shows.

If Sai had really been threatened by Syndicate, he might have sworn allegiance to Mao's love...

Mao became Sei's enemy more than he showed Syndicate his eyes like that.

In the work of the Commission, to the extent that we have met face-to-face on several occasions, we cannot overshadow our gratitude to the benefactor of life.

For Syndicate's sake, pull out Mao's information.

That's the role of Sei now.

Sai decided he didn't seem willing to answer as many questions as he had just asked because of Mao's condition.

Then approach from a different direction.

"... wouldn't you know that if you looked at my crusade information?

Sai shows the tablet to Mao.

Mao replied to Sei's question pretending to be a little troubled.

I'm not in any trouble.

"... that's right. Unless the owner dies, no one else can operate it. So I can't see what you've been defeating."

No one else can operate the tablet.

It's information I don't know.

I didn't even tell Sai about Syndicate.

Probably something Syndicate doesn't even know about.

After all, Mao seems to know more about the status quo than Syndicate.

I thought if Mao's aim was Sei's tenderness, he'd give some information.

To gain trust.

To give you information you don't even know about Syndicate, to impress you as someone you should follow more than Syndicate.

"Really... that's brave"

"What...?

Makes Mao look upset for only a moment at the words Sei's put out, unexpected.

I don't know what you're talking about, not a look like that.

That's how I reacted when they said words I didn't think they would say.

In other words, it's a reaction when you're asked about information that you want to hide.

"... what is it? A brave man is. I'm like that fairy tale."

But soon Mao returned calmly.

Look at Sole. Sei is sure.

Someone who seems to know more about the current situation than Syndicate.

The only person that seemed to be applicable in the information Sei had was a cat-eared boy, who was a brave man, but I'm pretty sure from Mao's reaction.

Mao is probably a brave man himself or someone related to it.

Sei decides to pursue it further.

"Aren't you a brave man? After defeating the tentacle demon, the cat boy came and said, I don't know if this is an institution with brave people. Chairman, I thought the chairman was a brave man because you are more familiar with the current situation."

Mao answers nothing.

My lips are just a little trembling.

Looks like it's working.

Look at Sole. Sai strengthens his offensive hand.

"Fifty people, they killed them. To find the brave and the brave. Fifty helpless people. They also tortured him to get information. It's hideous... if a man named Brave could have helped me right away, they might not have had to die either."

The boy with the cat ear didn't say anything like that when he tortured him.

But I dared to be radical.

To elicit Mao's reaction.

Sai is not the daughter of a lawyer to Dada.

Sai observes Mao closely as he says.

"Torture...!?

Mao with a stunned look.

Sai has never seen Mao like this before.

Mao, standing on the altar, was always full of elegance and strength.

Weakness that Mao has never shown before.

Obviously, I was upset.

"... What are you so surprised about? That's all we're gonna do to get the brave man's intel, right? He's already killed a lot of people. Or, after all, the chairman is a brave man and feels responsible for it..."

Mao reacted to Sai's words and tried to say something for his breath, then. Momentum opened the door.

"Chairman! Helicopter's in the school yard! It's a rescue! There's a rescue!

A boy student of Mao's followers jumped into the infirmary looking excited.
