The path to the truth: Male Reader X Naoto

Learning about the Midnight Channel

April 13: 2011

Yu and I walked to school. All of a sudden the guy from yesterday crashed into a garbage bin. I think his name was Yosuke? Anyways we decided to lend him a hand.

"Whew, you saved me, thanks. Umm, oh yeah you guys are the transfer students! I'm Yosuke Hanamura, nice to meet ya!" He said.

"Are you ok?" I asked him

"Oh yeah, yeah I'm fine. Say did you hear about that incident yesterday? They found that announcer lady hanging from an antenna! You think it was some kind of warning? There's no way something that weird could've been an accident." He said

"The person that I'm talking to which refers to you, may be correct." Yu said

"Dangling a dead body over a roof like that... that's just messed up. Then again, it's pretty messed up to kill someone in the first place. Oh crap we're late! You wanna ride? It's a little squeaky, but it should be fine. Oh, sorry I can only take one." He said

Yu shrugged and hopped on. Great, I'm out of luck.

A car pulled up behind me. The window opened and Naoto was inside.

"Hey, you want a ride?" He asked

"Sure, thanks." I said.

I got in.

"Did you hear about the incident yesterday?" He asked

"Yeah, I saw it on the news yesterday. That's, pretty messed up. Is there any sort of leads, oh, sorry, I forgot that police aren't supposed to discuss ongoing investigations." I said.

"It's alright, I'm, not on the case anyways. They, don't like calling on me, I think it's a pride thing." He said.

"That's gotta suck, I mean from what I've heard at school, you're one of the best they have." I said.

He went red from embarrassment.

"Uh, well, we're here now. I'll uh, see you later then!" He said.

Morning. During class

"Be quiet! You guys ARE in High School aren't you? Can't you shut up during class? Don't you have any common sense? First of all, my job is to waist my precious time teaching you assholes philosophy! And since I'm so nice, I'll straighten up your rotten attitudes while I'm at it! And I'll be especially hard on any of you morons curious about the murder! Got it?! Now get your books out!" King Moron said.

The lecture was rather boring but I listened through it.

After school.

Yosuke walked up to us.

"So, you getting used to this place?" He asked

"Yeah." We said

"Wow, that was fast. There isn't much to do here compared to the big city, but there is that certain, something you can't get anywhere else. The air's clean, the food's great.. oh and you know about the locale delicacy? It's grilled steak man! Like that's anything special huh? I know a place where you can get it cheap. Wanna come? You helped me this morning, so it's on me." Yosuke said

Chie walked up to us.

"What about me huh? No apologies? My "Trial of the Dragon."?" She asked

"Urgh, You always come around when I'm talking about food." Yosuke said

"How about it Yukiko? Don't you think he should treat us too?" She asked

"I'll pass. I don't want to gain anymore weight. I need to help out at the inn today anyway." Yukiko said
