Capítulo 153: Internal Shift - Part 1

◤━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━◥

[Matsuoka Rei POV]

I was sitting in the dark room since the other girl here with me refused to turn it on. Making myself comfortable on her couch, she eventually walked over to me.

I looked up at her.

"I did what you wanted me to, Akachi Hime. Are you going to explain your intentions to me now?"

"Aw, come on, Rei, don't you want some tea?"

I sighed.

"I only did what you asked because I thought that it was interesting. Don't get the wrong idea, thinking that we're friends."

Akachi laughed.

"Alright, alright. I wouldn't want someone from the Ideal Human Project to turn on me~."

I still didn't understand how she knew that. From all my memories of that time, there was no sign of anyone like her being part of the project. Despite knowing a lot about my past, she had no recollection of Tachibana-sensei, which was the part that confused me the most.

"Who really are you?"

"Aha, you don't have to be so blunt."
