49: Subordinate Initiation

Chihiro Suzuki called in sick today, which is the supposed reason she is not present. It's no wonder I've been feeling that things have been so quiet recently...

Coincidentally, the only person in the class who is missing.

But, that's not right.

Does that mean she is――No, no. I need to calm down. There's no way Chihiro Suzuki is the Concept of Space.

First of all, Saburou is not using an undercover name in the school. So, he can't be Chihiro Suzuki. Furthermore, I can simply ask for her location; unless it is somehow Conston, then it is simply impossible for her to be Space.

「The individual 'Chihiro Suzuki' is not in Conston」

That's confirmed, then.

Chihiro Suzuki is not Saburou, the Concept of Space.

Now, as a further precaution as well as to narrow down the scope, I'm going to assume it due to his name being Saburou, but Space is definitely male. It's easy to confirm that much. Isn't that right?

「Yes. The individual with the alias 'Concept of Space' is male」

Alright.
