The group and individual aren’t always conflicting but.there’s always parts where the optimization is incompatible. However, in case of humans, the individuals can’t continue to survive unless they organize as a group and the society isn’t allowed to crush an individual as long as the individual is in the society. That’s why a compromise is needed .Yeah

Therefore, in order for the society and individual to coexist.the group has to endure. This is a fine rule that the individual must endure. This iscommon sense In each group.it’s decided within the relationship of the group and individual. Therefore,common senseisn’t always constant. It changes according to the group But, things like you shouldn’t kill, you shouldn’t steal.those common sense is universal isn’t it?

Yukino refutes.

Well of course. That’s because thecommon sensecomes from the fundamentalliving instinctof humans. If you can’t keep that strange common sense, it’s impossible for the group to be organized you know?

True.if a murderer or a thief lives unregulated, you can’t condition the society.

Now then, any kind of animal group will always produce a stray. You know the talk about some percent of worker ants don’t work at all? It’s prepared to respond to sudden changes in the social environment. It’s thefluctuation In Saruyama2, thestrayis always chased out every year. The alpha male of the boss monopolizes the females and drives out the young males out of the herd. Both of those grow stronger outside the herd, then beat the old boss and take over the herd. Thestrayis an absolute necessity in the group .Stray

In human society.usoutsidersplay that role. Because we’re deviated from the social common sense, we can directly cut off the affected part of the society directly.

A crime is a crime! You’re just self-justifying your crimes!

Yukino snarls at Kyouko-san.

Well, if you look at it with eyes of common sense.

Kyouko-san laughs.

What I’m trying to say is.either way, the common sense of the world is bigger, and it has a base. The world of outsiders is a world where common sense is not necessary.thus onlyoutsiderscan survive. Ah, theoutsidersin this case isn’t just outlaws and criminal organization. Even powerful people like Kouzuki house areoutsidersbecause they deviate from the world of common sense.

Minaho-neesan looks at me with kind eyes.

You can just stay in the world of common sense. No.please stay there. And if we step off the right track, or lose what’s important, tell us

.Minaho-neesan.

We’ve already crossed the line after al

Then.she looks at Megu and Mana.

You two, stay with him. By looking at you young ones.we won’t be drowning in the world of insane.

.But

.Minaho-neesan, I’ve already.

I’ve killed Cesario Viola.

I can no longer turn back

Minaho-neesan.

.Did you kill Cesario Viola because of hate?

.That’s

You didn’t, did you? You tried to save everyone.and as a result you killed him

.Yeah I won’t say it’s an accident.I know it’s hard for you. But, it’s not that you wanted to do it, do you? .Yeah

Minaho-neesan hugs me.

.I will carry that burden with you for the rest of my life

.Minaho-neesan

The emotions overflow from the inside.

.I’m here with you

Nagisa hugs me from behind.

Me too.Yoshi-kun

.Onii-chan

Megu and Mana cuddles with me.

Yoshida-kun! Get well!

Mao-chan too.

.I

You can cry if it’s painful. Cry a lot.

Minaho-neesan tells me.

We’ll drink all of your tears.

At that moment.

My tears overflow. The emotions I’ve piled up explodes inside me.

uu.uu.uu!

I can’t speak but groan.

My body trembles.

Geez.you still have this much accumulated!

Nagisa scoops my tears with her tongue.

Me too!

Megu and Mana licks my face.

I. I lost my voice. Just.tears falling down.

Don’t worry. We’ll never leave you.never

Minaho-neesan said.and licks my tears.

Mao too, I want to lick!

Okay, sure

Nagisa carries Mao-chan

Ufufufu!

Mao-chan’s small tongue licks my tears.

It’s salty! Yoshida-kun!

Feel refreshed?

Kyouko-san asks me laughing

.Yes

I’m finally able to speak.

You seem to have overcome it

Over-cam? In Japanese.it’s getting over it3?

Kyouko-san smiles.

As long as you live.you’ll experience a lot of things. Even painful, sad, or traumatic experiences too. But, confront it, accept it, understand it, make it your experience.and unless you overcome it properly, the experience will remain as an obstacle in your heart. If you don’t go through the process of experiencing your experiences, you can’t digest any memories.

I wonder if I overcame Viola.

Yeah.that’s right. In this boy’s case.it’s better for you to digest the downside in your heart completely. Before meeting Nei.

Kyouko-san looks at Minaho-neesan.

I’m a little rough you see.I can’t win against Minaho’s tenderness

Kyouko-san is delicate enough

Minaho-neesan answers.

It’s just that Kyouko-san is always thinking from theoutsiderperspective.

I’m trapped in that thought you see. I thought that having him meet Nei while having a bomb in his heart is good for both of them, just like shock therapy. That’s a battlefield mentality. True. For now, it’s better to take time and choose a reliable method Yeah.Minaho’s calmness is right

Kyouko-san’s convinced.

Yoshi-kun.no matter what happens, I like Yoshi-kun. That feeling won’t change.

Mana too

Megu and Mana clings to me.

But, I.Cesaio Viola.

I’m a murderer.

I.pulled the trigger with Yoshi-kun Therefore, Yoshi-kun’s pain is mine as well

.Megu

Yeah, Mana.will take Onii-chan’s pain together

.Mana

I was told by Minaho-san.show a usual face until Yoshi-kun lets out his emotions properly.

Therefore, Megu-oneechan has been holding back until now

.Does that mean?

If these girls said at firstyou did nothing wrongyour heart would be confused, won’t it? Therefore I didn’t let them touch about Viola first

.Yeah

If the two defended me killing Viola as soon as we see each other. I think I would’ve closed my heart. Wrong. That’s not it. It’s my fault!like that.

By the way, why aren’t you clinging to him?

Kyouko-san asks Yukino.

Yukino goes aloof.

Haa? Why me?

Don’t you also

LOVE

this guy? There’s no way that’s true!

Yukino snapped.

In truth.I hate it that Yukino’s here

Megu said.

Me too, desu

Mana too.

But, I thought that Yoshi-kun would be glad if Yukino is here when he enters the room.so I held back

Me too, desu What are you saying! I came here by my own will!

Yukino shouts.

As expected, let’s throw her out the window

As usual, Mana’s cruel with her sister

Well, don’t say that.we’re having breakfast soon you know?

Tell Katsuko-san that Yukino-san doesn’t need her share

Hey hey, Mana

Instead of that.both of you go and help Katsuko-nee

Yeah.you’re right, Yoshi-kun. I was worried about Yoshi-kun so we came to this room True. Katsuko-san saidGo on, I’ll be fine

.Katsuko-nee.

Katsuko believes that you’ll be fine if left to Nagisa. She’ll heal you

Minaho-neesan said.

Misuzu-san is also so mature

Mana said

.Misuzu?

Yup. If it’s Danna-sama, he’ll definitely recover. Misuzu knows it.she said She’s worried about Ruriko-san right now.so she said that she wants to be by their side

.Misuzu

Michi-chan too.I have to guard Misuzu-sama, and I’ll just accept Master’s scolding latershe said
