After everything is over, we still have to face reality again.
Although that world was full of frustrating situations, nothing went smoothly.
The answers he sought remained elusive; he couldn't even be certain whether his own existence was real.
But having lived in that world for so long, there must be something to cherish.
"Don't you understand yet? Haven't I already made it very clear? This is actually—a real-life battle royale show."
He deliberately used an exaggerated tone to spread the word to everyone.
This was the most likely outcome Kanzaki Teru could have imagined, given the other party's various actions and the so-called academy rules.
Without exception, they all pointed to this result.
Upon hearing Kanzaki Teru's speculation, everyone was stunned, as no one could have come up with such an answer.
Or rather, this is simply too absurd, after all, if it really were a live-action battle royale show...
There will definitely be people watching. Will the police really allow this?
Why would you think that?
Upon hearing the other party's question, Kanzaki Teru's lips unconsciously curled up slightly.
If this assumption is wrong, then the other party should not have reacted this way.
·· ···Request flowers······
Instead, it should be directly rejected. Kanzaki Teru has already confirmed this idea based on the other party's subconscious reaction.
"Actually, I had this idea from the beginning, but I was just constantly verifying it through other clues."
The note that Hierstas gave to Kanzaki Hikaru not only contained information about Mukuro Ikusaki, but also included the phrase, "This is all a lie."
Although Kanzaki Teru initially found it somewhat inexplicable, he continued to gather clues.
........ ... ...
The most unbelievable answer was gradually confirmed, which was quite a strange feeling.
Although the note said that all of this was fake, Kanzaki Teru didn't know what "fake" meant.
Moreover, the scope of "everything" is far too broad. If we were to doubt everything, we would even have to doubt our own existence.
So Kanzaki Teru tried his best to collect clues, and even marked the clues he collected with a question mark.
But after piecing it together, this is the final answer, although there is another possibility.
However, even Kanzaki Teru felt that the possibility was a bit small, so he ruled it out.
"How is this possible! Haven't your memories been erased?"
"It's been eliminated, even completely eliminated, since I don't even know how I got here."
I thought it would take even more time to piece together the last puzzle, but to my surprise, the other party revealed their secret on their own.
Chapter 356: A Miscalculation
"How could you possibly have known from the very beginning!"
"You don't need to worry about that, after all, I'm saying goodbye to you now."
"what do you mean!?"
However, before Monokuma could make any move, Kanzaki Teru seemed to say something, but...
"Why!?"
The expected thing did not happen. He thought that this would allow him to escape from this illusion, but the result was unexpected for Kanzaki Teru.
Did I guess wrong?
This is almost the only possibility. Although it is possible that the rules for breaking away have changed this time, the possibility of "833" is almost zero.
"what are you doing?"
Seeing Kanzaki Teru's strange actions, Kirigiri Kyoko, who was standing to the side, also looked puzzled.
"It's nothing...it's just..."
If this isn't the correct answer, then what is the truth?
"You should explain what exactly happened first."
Looking at the mess in the room, Togami Byakuya pushed up his glasses.
His gaze wasn't just fixed on Kanzaki Teru, but also on Monokuma and Enoshima Junko.
"What's with that look you're giving me? Are you doubting me?! Ugh! This is such a boring farce!"
Mukuro Ikusa, who was playing Enoshima Junko, made an annoyed sound and prepared to turn around and leave.
"What are you doing! Get out of my way!"
However, just as she was about to leave, a figure blocked her way.
"If you leave without explaining, it's practically the same as you agreeing."
Celestia's voice was almost devoid of any emotion; she was simply stating the most basic facts.
"I don't know anything about this! What's it to me! Get out of my way!"
Even so, Warblade Mukuro was still preparing to leave.
"Is this really okay, Ultimate Soldier—Mukuro Senba?"
However, at that moment, Kanzaki Teru's indifferent voice rang out.
"Warblade Corpse!?"
However, upon hearing this name, Kyoko Kirigiri reacted.
"what are you talking about?"
"You told me back then that you had only heard of the name, right?"
"So what?"
"Then I'd like to ask everyone here, have you heard of this name before?"
The group looked at each other, but no one answered. It seemed that no one knew the name.
"In other words, you're the only one among everyone here who's heard of this name."
"So what! Does that mean you can conclude that I am her?"
“I never said that. I just want to ask again, where did you learn this name from?”
Kanzaki Teru was aggressive, showing no intention of giving the other party a chance to breathe.
"How should I know! Ugh, so annoying! I'm leaving!"
"I can't just let you leave like this."
As soon as Kanzaki Teru finished speaking, he picked up the weapon at his feet and threw it at the other person.
Clang—a crisp metallic clang rang out, and Kanzaki Teru's thrown weapon was intercepted in mid-air.
"What do you want to do!?"
"While I'd like to see you all fight each other, I don't want it to happen openly. At least on the surface, I will still protect you all..."
The person who stopped Kanzaki Hikaru was Monokuma, and his actions at this moment made him even more suspicious.
"You intervened at this time, is that the only reason? Isn't it to protect your own people?"
Normally speaking, now that Monokuma has made a move...
Then Mukuro Ikusa, whom Kanzaki Teru identified as playing Enoshima Junko, would be even more suspicious, but it's impossible for the other party not to know this.
Perhaps this is the other side's real smokescreen; Kanzaki Teru is also somewhat confused about the situation at this moment.
However, since Monokuma just now clearly showed that it wanted to finish me off, it's very likely that I guessed something right, which is why it provoked it.
However, in reality, after Kanzaki Teru revealed all his speculations, he did not leave this world.
Then it's very likely that your guess is wrong somewhere.
Kanzaki Teru initially thought that this group of people might actually have entered Hope's Peak Academy, but then something happened.
The information Kanzaki Teru obtained from the conversation between 5.1 and Monokuma earlier was that everyone's memories were erased.
Then the other side created another fake Hope's Peak Academy with the purpose of filming a battle royale show, and Monokuma is the real Enoshima Junko, and the person standing here now is Mukuro Ikusa.
However, something about this guess seems wrong, otherwise he would have already escaped this space.
"I already said, this is my duty as the dean of the academy."
Although Monokuma repeated the same words, it only made him seem more suspicious.
Chapter 357: The Escalating Suspicion
"Can you explain why you did this to me?"
Pointing to the messy room, Kanzaki Teru tried to gather information from other sources.
"This must be a system problem; I just fixed it myself."
It was an absolute lie, a lie that none of the people present believed.
After all, this level of problem cannot be simply dismissed as a system issue, especially in such a critical place.
"Okay, then I'll believe you."
"Hey! You just believe it like that?!"
Upon hearing Kanzaki Teru's words, Asahina Aoi's face was filled with surprise.
After all, under such circumstances, it's almost impossible for anyone to believe what Monokuma said.
With such a huge commotion, how could we just let 23 go so easily?
"Of course, this is our Dean of Students."
Although Kanzaki Teru's tone was somewhat sarcastic, everyone was still unsure of what to say.
"In that case, there's nothing more for me to do."
