The next day we went to the butterfly mansion and found Shinobu talking to her best friend Mitsuri, the love hashira. Muichiro and I asked if we could borrow Shinobu for a moment. As soon as we got her alone, we said, "We found out, you can drop that fake smile."
She looked like she expected this to come and responded, "Tell me what you know." We gave the whole list. "We know that ever since your sister passed, you have been severely depressed. You have been injecting wisteria poison into yourself as part of your plan to kill the uppermoon that killed your sister. You are never happy despite that smile you always wear. You have a building rage inside you directed to demons. And you don't care whether you die or not."
Shinobu looked at us and sighed. After a moment, she said, "All that you have said is true. But I am a bit worried about leaving all of the girls at the butterfly mansion. And some of the hashira as well." For a moment, her smile fell and was briefly replaced by a genuine look of pain and suffering. A moment later her mask was back on again. I was still concerned, so I added, "I hope talking to us has helped you. We would like to tell one person each about this. In case it escalates." Shinobu sighed heavily. "I don't suppose I have a choice. Very well. But please make sure that they can keep a secret."
We nodded and headed off, giving her some space. I was deadly serious about solving this. Too many people relied and cared about Shinobu, so if she died, all of them would be in pain. But before we could act upon anything, we came across a unique scene.
Thank you so much for reading. The next part is a bit inspired from one of the mini comics I read. If you know who made it please credit.
