Time passed. Fukuda didn’t return to our cabin until it was only a few minutes before the start of the next activity. With what Hino said, he was probably afraid to be hit by reality again. Or maybe, my threat was already working. He’d become more cooperative now like Ogawa. However, that still didn’t solve his hangup with Chii. He possibly already tied it to his personality like Ogawa. Rather than accept that he lost, he’d obsess over her until it became uncontrollable.
Better give him a reality pill that would convince him to give up. I could give him the same treatment as that silent guy but it’d be a hassle to keep raising my fist against minor inconveniences. My time would be better spent on more important things like solidifying our future one step at a time.
