- ...To my dear friend Asahina. There are several things I must tell you.
- It is pains me that I have to convey them in this form, but I want you to know.
- This is... my final wish.
- As you know, I was the mastermind's mole...
- The mastermind first approached me the first night after we started this strange school life.
- By taking my family's dojo hostage, the mastermind ordered me to help him.
- You may think this is too much for a simple dojo, but it has been my family's for more than three hundred years...
- I could not see it destroyed on my watch... That is why I had to protect it even at the cost of my own life.
- ...That is what I thought.
- But, those thoughts came to me because of my own weakness.
- That is why I made the mistake of following the mastermind's orders.
- Then, the order the mastermind gave me was to "kill someone".
- He feared that the situation will turn into a deadlock, and that no murder will occur.
- But, unexpected by both me and the mastermind, Sayaka Maizono was murdered before I could act.
- The plan changed accordingly.
- The mastermind ordered me to stay still and wait for new orders when a deadlock situation occurs again.
- But then, as I spent my life with the other students...
- As I spent my life with you, Asahina...
- ...My determination started to waver.
- I saw everyone struggling, fighting to survive...
- ...And I came to understand my own weakness. The weakness the mastermind took advantage of.
- But, more than anything...
- I came to realize one thing.
- I could not betray my friends.
- I do not mind being hated. My own weakness brought that upon me...
- That is why I resigned to accept attacks directed at me.
- I believed that was just part of atoning for my sins.
- But I was naive. The situation could not be resolved just by me being disgraced.
- The situation did not end with people acting only against me. And that, I believe...
- That was the mastermind's true goal when he exposed me.
- By revealing my betrayal, he planted seeds of discord and suspicion.
- He wanted it to end in more mutual killing.
- Nevertheless. That, too, is my responsibility.
- It is my duty to settle this situation.
- In order to fulfill that duty, I will follow the order given to me by the mastermind.
- The order to "kill someone".
- But, the person I will kill...
- ...Will be myself.
- If the mastermind wants me to kill, I will kill myself.
- By doing so, I can save the dojo. But more importantly, I can end it with no murder taking place.
- If I am dead, the state of affairs kindling the flames of your discord will die with me.
- For that, I spare my life.
- You are important. As important as my own life.
- Regardless of what you think, you all are my precious friends.
- ...The first I ever had.
- Asahina. Allow me to apologize.
- I could not confide with you. If I did, you would have tried to stop me.
- I am truly sorry. But do not despair...
- If I managed to stop the mastermind's plans... If I managed to put an end to the murders...
- ...That is all I could ask for.
- This is the road I have chosen. My way of taking responsibility.
- As long as you show everyone this letter, the school trial will come to a quick conclusion.
- Asahina. It may be asking for too much, but I leave the rest to you.
- ...I am now leaving to meet Togami, Fukawa and Hagakure.
- I will not reveal to them my plans to die, but I want to try to convey my feelings.
- After that, my actions will speak louder than words. They will understand then.
- We are not enemies that must fight each other. We are friends that should work together.
- Asahina. More than anything, I wish for you to live. To survive along with our friends.
- I am certain... that you will.
