>>6110216You can’t really describe the sound you make, but it ends up with you putting a finger up to Usami-kun’s slimy flesh to silence him, “Hey, don’t say anything incriminating!” You whisper-snap to him, “And don’t you dare say anything to the others! Alright, Usami-kin?”
“Urrp, sorry,” You return to your leaning position, “Hey, uh, it’s kinda weird for only one of us to call the other by our family name, so you can call me Minato if you want- S-since we’re together in this- O-only if you want to of course.”
“Hm? Okay, that’s fine- wait, I get it!”
“Get what?”
“We’re all in this together! That’s what this must be!” You exclaim, “This whole game is too stupid to make any sense. Why wouldn’t a traitor just kill who they pair with and claim the other revealed something? Morgan would die if the boat sunk, so this must be a test! One of our Stranger comradery! We’re supposed to figure out there isn’t a traitor despite the circumstances, and then we’d all be let into the Heaven Society!” Ha, you figured out this puzzle without the need for a guide!
“The other’s don’t seem inclined to believe that,” Minato-kun says, causing you to hesitate.
“Then we’ll just have to convince them, won’t we?” You say. Not long after some more inconsequential chatting and planning with Minato-kun, an alarm resounds from the room, and the interior doors of the narrowboat all open, revealing Morgan gesturing for everyone to come back. Returning to your previous seat, you gauge everyone else’s reactions and consider your plan. You and Minato-kun need to convince the others that there is no traitor, but while Seo-yun and Morgan look mostly the same, Maxwell seems a bit put off, and Rin looks rather determined.
“Did everyone have fun?” Morgan receives no replies, “Anyway, let’s start the next round immediately! Obviously, you can’t figure everyone out just talking to one buddy! Oh, and new partners!” The plethora of emotions she speaks with reminds you of an adult talking to a child, with every tone being exaggerated and fake, “Now why don’t we all partner-”
“I want to talk with you,” Rin cuts her off with earns him a half-second hate-filled glare before Morgan’s smile returns, “I figured something out.”
“Hm? That’s fine with me. What about everyone else?”
“I don’t care,” Seo-yun crosses her arms and looks away with a snarl.
Maxwell just helplessly shrugs.
