The Truth Behind The Lies - Tachizaki

Chapter 39 - Through the "Door"

Teruko Okura POV

What the hell is this?

Why are the bosses of the agency and mafia fighting all of a sudden?

Wait.

No.

No, this happened before.

Tachihara said something about it.

Some ability user working for Dostoevsky had poisoned the agency and mafia's bosses in order to kill them. To throw everyone off of himself.

Tachihara mentioned how worried everyone was.

Not a single soul wasn't on edge during the whole situation.

Dostoevsky wanted the two to fight one another, taking out strong agents and making himself have an upper hand when it came to a battle like this one.

Except they found a loop-hole, even after trying to kill each other and each others bosses. If I'm recalling Tachihara's words correctly.

So, I got taken back to when the bosses of the agency and mafia tried to fight each other when they were hit with the ability so that their organizations wouldn't have to fight each other and lose good agents.

Okay, but why?

Why is there some weird door in the middle of these tunnels that bring you to when they were trying to kill one another?

It doesn't make sense, but then again nothing about this whole situation makes sense.

I guess more things not making sense is the best. I mean at least everything's staying on brand.

I wasn't here during the whole situation. Actually, only Tachihara was, so I've got no clue how this is supposed to go.

My guess is Mori's gonna win, unfortunately, but something will happen and he won't kill the agency's boss.

Hm, maybe it's got something to do with that cat the girl said brought her here.

The door into this room is small enough to be meant for a cat, but it could have been expanded more so someone the size of a toddler could make it in here.

Like me.

Perhaps this was that ability users plan.

Bring a little girl to a battle ground to throw everyone off, putting her in a place he was sure she'd be found as well.

It seems this guy might not want anything horrible to happen to the girl, but at the same time bringing her to a battle field, during a battle, is a horrible decision.

Regardless of his intent. Well, that would bring us to the question of if that "intent" is good or not.

Maybe that cat is here. In this room somewhere.

The battles still going, at this rate I'm sure Mori will win.

Though the President of the Agency certainly does have skill. He's just not tricky enough to beat the creepy bastard, I suppose.
