"That Viola, she's no longer of use. If you're wondering why, it's because she's dead."

The clock seemed to stop, and Viola's kind gestures and the way she treated me made me even fall deep into despair.

She's strict and demanding... But far in her heart, she was a very kind person.

"H-how...? How could she-"

"Ahhh, that's because I beat her to death. It seemed that I got carried away and ended up killing her earlier. I predict that they will find her body after lunchtime is over."

(... Y-you killed her...!? You!?)

My body felt cold and there was something that was swirling inside my chest.

A heat that seemed to burn all of my cells and skin.

(So that's why.....)

I remembered asking her where her bruise on her hand came from.

Viola said that the family is a strict martial arts family, so she always has bruises after official matches.

(Was it all a lie...?)
