It's about time...

Chiaki had already called Nagito over. It was a matter of time before he came over.

If he does...

Katsumi decided to head outside near the hotel building so she could monitor everything just in case. She carefully stepped out of her cottage, making sure nobody would see her, then ran over, past the pool area.

She went over, placing her back against the side walls outside the hotel building, inching herself near one of the windows to get a small glimpse of the lobby inside. Sure enough, Kazuichi, Fuyuhiko and Akane were inside, readying their positions.

A few minutes passed before finally, she heard footsteps approaching the building. She immediately tensed up, trying not to make any sound.

She heard two voices. Nagito and... Hajime?

Why is he there? Did something happen?

"What happened, Hinata-kun?" she heard Nagito say. "What are you so nervous about?"

"I'm... not nervous," she heard Hajime reply.

"Haha... you're a terrible actor."

Hold on... What is he—?

"...If you're gonna slow down like that, I'll go inside first, then..." Nagito said.

When Katsumi saw the doors open from inside, immediately, Akane grabbed and restrained Nagito by the neck.

"Alright, I got him!" she yelled.

"Um... what are you doing?" Nagito asked in a dangerously calm voice.

"Don't judge us for this... but we're going to tie you up!" Fuyuhiko said.

"Haha, tie me up?"

"Th-There's no use struggling!" Kazuichi said.

"But, I'm not struggling."

Why's he... so calm...?

"What the hell?" Fuyuhiko said.

"Who cares?" Kazuichi yelled. "Just tie him up before it's too late!"

"...You guys are really disappointing..." Nagito sighed. "How long are you going to continue behaving so short-sightedly? You gotta look at the big picture, you know."

"Huh? What are you talking about?" Fuyuhiko asked.

"It's fine if you don't understand. You can just see the end without knowing... Now then, let's begin! The beginning of the end of Jabberwock island!"

Suddenly...

*KABLAM*

The room went bright for a split second and the air shook, even from outside. The explosion was ear-ringing.

What the...? Are they...?!

Out of desperation, Katsumi ran to the entrance, swung the door open and stepped in.
