My Answer To Life: OC X Akihiko Sanada P3 Fanfic

Chapter 42

"You're right, Jin. Ikutsuki is up to something. But, his security system is beyond my capability. "I said as I handed him a USB which contains the access of the Kirijou database.

"........ Don't make me betray them... Okay? "I begged, feeling extremely guilty. I'm well aware that I'm not supposed to do this. Mitsuru trusted me and yet I........

"Okay........ I'll just look into the secret folder and nothing more. You have my word. "He reassured me and put the USB into his pocket.

"Tell me if you ever learn something. "

"I will. If what you said is true, this may be bigger than we anticipated. For now, stay low and don't draw any unnecessary attention. I'll contact you once I find something. "He said to me before he left, leaving me alone in the manga cafe. I pulled my coat closer, I can't seem to withstand the cold nowadays. It's not even winter yet. Suddenly, my phone rang and I picked it up.

"Hello? "

"Hey, are you free now? "Shinji's voice came from the other side.

"Yeah, why? "I'm curious, he usually doesn't want to socialize with other people.

"Want to hang out? I'm at Iwotodai strip mall. "

"Really, so am I. Want to meet up? "

"Great, I'll see you in Hagakure. "He said before he hung up. I put away my phone and went downstairs to Hagakure. We happen to run into each other just at the door. We looked at fact other before we brushed it off with a chuckle.

"It's not like you, usually I'm the one asking you out. "I said to him as we waited for our food.

"I don't make the first move often doesn't mean I wouldn't. By the way, you feeling alright? You're wearing a lot today. "He pointed at my thick clothes.

"Can't help it. This fragile body of mine can't really withstand the cold nowadays. I'm just happy that I can still talk about it now. "I shrugged.

"You should've stayed in. "

"If I did, I won't be out here ever again. I don't want to spend my last remaining days in bed. After all, it's still a beautiful world out there. "I smiled as I feel comfortable around him. He's the only one who I can share a relaxing conversation with. He knew about everything, yet he respects my choices and wouldn't do anything to disturb it. He treated it normally and doesn't freak out or blaming someone or himself that he's powerless to do anything. He's the kind of person I turn to whenever I have trouble keeping everything in.

"You keep saying that recently, how close is it? "

"The doctor says not more than November, but maybe lesser than that since my body is already in this state. At this rate, I'll be bedridden in no time. "I sighed like it was normal. Or at least I'm pretending that it was.

"What is your plan? It's already October. You know that they'll find out when you ended up in bed every day. "

"Yeah........ But I think I have enough counter measurements for it. "

"How so? "

"......... I found a small house, it's old and will probably collapse in a few years' time. But, I think it's best for hiding. "

"You plan on disappearing? "

"......... Because I can't pull off the plan to make them hate me to the point that they want nothing to do with me. I became too attached, so are them to me. I believe this is the best choice, you know........than to let them learn that I'm dead. "I gave him a bitter smile.
