Upon hearing that, Kimura Kazuki was not surprised.

Apparently, he had some assumptions from the dialogue just now. According to the news report, Takashima Izumi was the arsonist. However, from Nishiyama Chiyoko’s tone and expression, the real suspect was another person.

If it were true, it would not be a difficult guess.

Moreover, Ito Shunji had the motive to commit a crime. It was due to the girl that he had a crush on, Reika, was being tarnished by Takashima Izumi.

However, when he met with Ito Shunji at Akichi High School previously, he had another explanation. After ruminating over it, it was apparent that Ito Shunji wanted to deceive him into entering Akichi High School...

That Multi-armed Demon was the Land Bounded Spirit, it was unable to leave Akichi High School before it metamorphosed. Ito Shunji paused at the entrance of Akichi High School, without taking a step further.

If he had followed what he was told during that time and entered that place, he might be dead right now.

As for why the burnt smell from Ito Shunji was quite faint, it was because he had almost achieved the stage of metamorphosis. Also, this was the reason why he rejected the invitation from Ito Shunji to go into the sports warehouse. He would not enter the school by only listening to one party.

Ignoring what was said by Ito Shunji, which was not totally accurate, combined with the speech from Nishiyama Chiyoko and Aoki Hidehiro, Kimura Kazuki had a much clearer picture now.

It was started by the game ‘Non-existent Person’- No, Kimura Kazuki frowned, it was supposed to be a joke.

The students from Class Four of the sophomore year got involved in the game because they were forced by Takashima Izumi. Moreover, Ito Shunji had said before, he knew this game for a long time. He was antisocial, that was why he seldom mingled around with the students from the Class Four.

Takashima Izumi was the only one that really enjoyed the game. Still, something strange was that after the school started, Takashima Izumi began to hate Ito Shunji. He had tarnished Reika, for the purpose that Reika could spread AIDS to Ito Shunji.

So, the turning point of the case was the moment when Takashima Izumi started to hate Ito Shunji suddenly, and he tainted Reika.

But... why would Takashima Izumi hate Ito Shunji all of a sudden? Kimura Kazuki mused, his attitude change was the key point. Abruptly, he looked up and laid an eye on Nishiyama Chiyoko, slowly, he voiced, “Why do you know that Takashima Izumi stained Reika?”

Kimura Kazuki finally understood at this moment.

He knew it because Ito Shunji and Aoki Hidehiro told him about it.

But how did Nishiyama Chiyoko knew it? Did Takashima Izumi go to tell her after he had infected Reika? Although from what Aoki Hidehiro told him, he knew that Takashima Izumi had a good relationship with Nishiyama Chiyoko... But this was a crime, how could he tell others?

“Finally, you realized it.” Nishiyama Chiyoko put the cigarette to her lips and blew out the smoke in enjoyment, there was a sense of excitement deep in her eyes.

Usually, she would not smoke because a majority of her customers dislike smoking. But when she was excited, she could not control herself. From the conversation with Kimura Kazuki, it led her to remember the affair that happened five years ago, which she had hidden it deep in her heart.

When Kimura Kazuki came to meet her, it reminded her about that show, an amazing show! Unfortunately, she did not achieve her goal, she failed to destroy Akichi High School.

Upon witnessing that Kimura Kazuki staring at her with a cold gaze, Nishiyama Chiyoko smiled, “You are not the writer for light-hearted novels, aren’t you... But it was nothing at all. If you want to know what had happened during that time, I can tell you.”

She blew out another puff of smoke, spoke in a normal voice as if she was just stating a fact, “I encouraged Takashima Izumi to rape Reika.”

Although he had expected this, Nishiyama Chiyoko’s statement had caused him to breathe rapidly.

Kimura Kazuki had always mocked himself as an indifferent person, but it did not mean that he was emotionless. In fact, he considered it as calm and steady rationality.

In such a situation, a normal human being would be frustrated. He restrained his anger, and replied, “It was because Takashima Izumi had spread AIDS to you, wasn’t it?”

If Nishiyama Chiyoko had AIDS... How many people had she spread to in five years?

He only thought about it for a while, and he shuddered. It was what revenge toward society was.

“No, no, no...” Once again, Nishiyama Chiyoko pressed the cigarette in her hand at the ashtray, her face was flushed. There was an excitement in her eyes, she said in a joyful tone, “You have it wrong, it was me that spread the AIDS disease to Takashima Izumi, but he did not spread it to me.”

She laughed as she spoke, like an evil being, muttering, “What a funny guy Izumi was. He possessed me, which I loathingly consented to become his girlfriend. Later, I told him that I was infected with AIDS, and I questioned him furiously on why he spread the disease to me. You did not know how funny his expression was at that particular moment, then he went for a check-up privately, and he found that he was infected with AIDS. Ridiculously, he thought that it was him that spread the disease to me... After that, he became docile and obedient to me and treated me nicely, what a cute and simple guy.”

“Unfortunately, I did not want to spread it to only one person, my ultimate goal was to destroy that school. When I found out that Izumi involved himself in the game, ‘Non-existent Person’ in his class, I knew that it was an opportunity.” Nishiyama Chiyoko smiled satirically. “I intentionally approached Ito Shunji, and Takashima Izumi quarreled with me due to this a few times. When I did so, I realized that Ito Shunji had a crush on someone, and she was Reika. Unwittingly, I told this to Takashima Izumi, and I knew his character that he would do something beyond my expectation.”

“I was not wrong. Takashima Izumi messaged me before the school commenced. He asked me to go to the sports warehouse to witness the scene of him raping Reika, and I asked Ito Shunji to go. I told Ito Shunji that I had found something, and wanted him to wait for me at the entrance of the sports warehouse on the same night.”

The purpose of asking Ito Shunji to go there was to let him witness that the girl he had a crush on was being stained by others, and he would feel the desperation.

However, Nishiyama Chiyoko did not expect that Takashima Izumi would be so foolish, he admitted that he was the AIDS carrier to Reika. He used it to assault Reika to spread it to Ito Shunji. That was why it was totally out of her control.

Ito Shunji slapped Takashima Izumi in front of the class. During the physical education class, he used his teacher’s name and gathered all of his classmates at the sports warehouse. After that, he burnt the whole building to the ground.

It was horrible when an honest man became mad.

Kimura Kazuki listened to it, silently. The gel pen in his hand had been broken by him.

The reason why he investigated this was that he wished to know more about the obsession of Multi-armed Demon, for him to plan a suitable solution to eliminate it.

However, after knowing the truth, the joyful emotion in his heart disappeared.

Regardless of whether it was Takashima Izumi, Ito Shunji, or Reika, they had become her mannequins, for her to manipulate randomly.

This woman deserved death.
