*In Kusanagi Ken Perspective

Both Haruka and I were surprised.
"Isn't this a normal psychological question?" I asked
"Hmm? You are right but I just want to ask it for future reference" he answered
"So what will it be?" he asked again
This is one of the few questions that can really bring people problems... A checkmate to be exact... If you chose the 1, the most important person to you, they will see you as a heartless man who let the 99 people died and also vice versa. No matter or whatever you choose you will end up as someone who let the other side die...
What will Haruka answer? I am pretty sure she would choose the 1. She might be energetic and kind but she can also be cruel if need be..... But to my surprise Haruka stepped in.
"Oh! Haruka-chan would like to answer first!!!!" he shouted happily
Haruka took a deep breath and answered
"I would choose to save both"Me and Lein were speechless
"EH? Did I say something wrong?" she asked
"Pfffft... HAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!" Lein suddenly laughed loudly
"HAHAHAAH AHH!!! I AM REALLY SURPRISED TO... PFFFTTT..... TO SEE AN IDIOT LIKE YOU HARUKA-CHAN!!! HAHAHAAH!!!!!"
Haruka pouted "HOHO..." She slowly drew out a sword out of nowhere
Lein stopped laughing "AH-AHEM* I'm sorry for earlier" he apologized
Haruka withdrew her sword
"But then again can I ask how you chose the answer?" he asked but it is obvious that he is forcing himself not to laugh
Haruka sighed "Why should I choose between the 2 when I can do something to save them depending the situation?"
"Well that's true, logically speaking you can find a way to save both sides. But logic doesn't really exist in this kind of questions, they are there to know or find the real nature of a human" he explained
"Is that so?"
"Right, so Haruka-chan to put an example for you." He smiled again
Haruka looks confused
He raised his two hands near his chest, and stones are on the top of his palm. In the right hand there are 5 small stones, and in the left there is a stone.
"I'll be giving you a real life example... In the right this represents the 5 or 99 people who are strangers to you and in the left is the most important person for you. Hmmm.. Then for example this lonely stone here is Ken" he explained
"I see so I need to choose who to save.. But—-"
"Let's put a twist on it." Lein suddenly spoke
"Twist?"
"Just like I said earlier to make it more realistic. You will still choose and find a way to save them right? Like for example... What if they are just tied to a train track, you just need to stop the train right? Or what if there is a bomb planted on them with your strength and agility you can surely save them."
"Can I use my servant abilities?" she asked
"Yep, since the you right now is who we are talking about"
