SEKAI of Despair

Chapter 3 Part 6 (Route 1)

OPTION: Defend

I'm being accused of murder, so I need to defend myself...

Tsukasa: "What evidence do you have that suggests that I'm the one behind the murder?

It's unfair for you to accuse me with no basis. So... Prove it! Can you prove that I'm the killer?

Because unless you can do that... I am completely innocent."

Mafuyu: "Sure. First of all your alibi."

Tsukasa: "Yeah? Tell me, what about my alibi?

What about it?

How the hell does my alibi get me accused of murder?"

Toya: "Well.. could you repeat what your alibi was?"

Tsukasa: "As I already mentioned before... I spent all my time writing a script, without leaving my room until four am."

Emu: "Isn't... 4am close to the time of murder...?"

Mafuyu: "Yeah... 4:05am exactly.."

Tsukasa: "Just because I was up at the time of the murder doesn't mean I killed Mizuki! Maybe the real culprit was also up and just decided to kill them at that time!

Mafuyu: "hm..."

Tsukasa: "What you should do instead is try to prove that I had a motive or a purpose to do the murder! Then if you can do that, you can prove I'm the murderer!

Or... Can you?"

Kohane: "W-what's with that scary look-"

Tsukasa: "I do not like to be wrongfully accused."

Kohane: "EEP-!"

Mafuyu: "... I got it."

Tsukasa: "You got what?"

Mafuyu: "The proof of you being the culprit."

As she said that she pulled out a video recording of...

My conversation between Mizuki and me.

Tsukasa: "?!"

Rui: "What? Cat got your tongue~?"

Tsukasa: "Where.... Where did you get this?!"

Mafuyu: "Mikukuma said she always has recordings of everyone. I just happened to get my hands on a copy of a conversation between you and Mizuki before they died."

Oh no... Oh no, no, no! I-I-I...

Tsukasa: "I-I"

Mafuyu: "luckily for you this recording only shows the footage of what exactly happened. It didn't record the audio."

Shiho: "Well what are you waiting for? Play the recording."

Tsukasa: "WAIT DON'T!"

It was too late.

Mafuyu started playing the recording.

And... That's when i remember all of it...

I wanted to forget all of that..

But i just.... can't seem to get rid of it can i..

I killed someone... I'm a murderer...

I killed someone for stupid survival...

I'm a maniac am i...?

Tsukasa: "so... Why did you ask me to come here...?"

Mizuki: "Isn't it obvious..? It's time to settle this. Once and for....

They pulled out a knife and...
