>We never did catch that Narue since then in the end.
>She's been away from school this whole time, after all...
>She's still home sick.

>Did we do something bad...?
>Eh...?
>...

>Don't worry about it, Renna!
>She's the one who should be feeling guilty!

>More importantly, are you free tomorrow?
>Come out with me!
>Huh? ...Okay.

p2
>Today, these two are on an outing♪

p3
>These clothes won't suit me.
>Never mind that.
>Just try them on. You'd promise you'd go along with me today, didn't you?

>I thought we'd just be choosing clothes for you, Fuuka...
>Come on! This too!

>Gimme a shout when you're ready~

>Honestly, that Fuuka...

p4
>I know she's doing this for me as a change of pace, but...
>!

p5
>Fuuka?

>That suits you!
>HYAH!

>That voice...!

>Y-You scared me...
>All I did was speak to you.
>Sorry...

>!

p6
>Hmm.
>Not bad.
>Yep yep.
>!!

>I've never had my legs exposed this much before...
>Uuh
>Easier to move around in, right?

>Look. A twin look.

>It really was you, Renna-san.

p7
>Huh? It's you...
>I'm Shiozaki Kasumi.
>I could hear Renna-san from all the way outside.
>Eh?
>You heard that...?

>Was I really that loud...?

>Yeah. You let out this amazing voice sometimes, Renna.

>A-Amazing!?

>...
>I see you're trying on clothes, so let's go somewhere else.

p8
>Renna-san's voice certainly rocks people in an amazing way.
>Eh? Eh?
>Not always, but sometimes.

>Sometimes...? What does it feel like?

>...

>Nothing much.
>I just get this kinda feeling like I need to do something, or rather...
>a feeling like I need to protect you, or rather...
>Eh?

>It's nothing!

p9
>...It was the same when you brought it out in front of everyone, wasn't it?

>I'm sorry I couldn't help you back then.
>D-Don't be. Everyone understood once I explained everything...

>That's the power of your voice, Renna-san.

>My voice...?

>Yes.
>I think so too.
>It makes you feel restless.

>Now that you mention it...
>Long ago, Black Rose-sama also...

p10
>Yeah. Back when she gave you that weird nickname.

>She must've noticed something about my voice ever since we were children.

>...But the reason I'm with you
>isn't because of that.

>Fuuka.

>...

p11
>What's wrong?
>I got a reply.

>>Die with me.

>I don't think we can resolve this by ourselves.
>No duh.
>It's a suicide matching site, after all...
>Wait.

>Ah.

>Is that "that site"?

>Yeah, it is.
>Hah~
>Um, I got curious and looked into it
>and Fuuka joined me.

>I-I was curious... about Black Rose-sama...

p12
>I understand.

>But are you posting on that site for the sake of that curiosity?
>That's dangerous.

>Renna does some crazy stuff if I'm not there to protect her, after all.
>Eh?

>I don't do crazy stuff.
>You totally do.
>...

>Um,
>may I be of assistance?

>Eh?

p13
>I've been curious about Kyouko-san this whole time too,
>about how things turned out like that...
>Even the police are saying it was suicide.
>Eh?

>When the police stopped us the other day,
>they said they didn't know anything.

>So they spoke to you two
>as well, huh?

>They questioned me too.
>But afterwards, there was a rumor saying "the investigation had been closed
>due to pressure"...

p14
>...Pressure?

>It's just a rumor,
>but it got me thinking that if the police won't investigate, we have no choice but to do it ourselves...

>Ah, then together we can...

>...we can...

>Pfft

p15
>Fine with me.
>Three heads are better than two.
>Are you sure?
>We just so happened to reach a dead end anyway..

>We lured out this suspicious person who's been on that site for a while,
>but we don't know where to go from here.
>When was this?

>About five days ago, I think, on XX Building.

>If it happened on that day...
>then I might have an idea of who this person is.

p16
>Really!?
>Who!?

>...

>It's White Rose-sama.

>>The beautiful rose has thorns...!?
