Chapter 22 Section VI

I didn't want to think about it again, but I got your letter.It's a copy of Saying's letter, and then I sent you the blog content containing Shinji's confession and your letter, which only has one line: I have forgiven you. Isn't that weird?What the hell did we do to you and Emili?After reading Saying's letter, you thought you were the one who pushed Saying to this point, right?More than ten years ago, you said something irrational out of impulsiveness. When you learned that one of the children has not shaken off the shadow of that sentence and endured an unimaginable burden, you didn't know what to do, so you hurriedly Send copies of that letter to the other three, isn't it?However, he didn't expect Maki to kill someone again.

Originally, you hoped that similar things would not happen again, so you sent that letter. You regretted not letting everyone understand your original intention, so you added a sentence later, but then another girl killed someone.It is said that she didn't read the letter. You want to save the last person, so you came to see me directly, right? You always do things halfway, blaming yourself for making it happen, and getting a little self-absorbed at the same time, which is why you say forgiveness. At Saying's wedding, if you could express your apology and say "I'm so sorry for what you said at the time, I'm so sorry", Saying would not be so deeply trapped in the agreement with you that she couldn't extricate herself.Also, in the letter to Maki, if you can add the sentence "Forget the promise at that time" while sending the letter to Saying, Maki will not push herself to that point, will she?As for Akiko, I don't know how much she is influenced by you, but for me, this matter has nothing to do with you.

In fact, you have already come, right? I was surprised to see the name of the teacher at the Freedom School mentioned in Maki's statement. I wanted to contact Maki, so I first contacted Maki's sister...while I was doing these things in a leisurely manner , something happened to Akiko, probably because the incident of Saying and Maki happened far away from me, I don’t have a particularly strong and practical feeling for the seriousness of their murder, and Akiko still lives in that small town, I’m not a policeman, If I say that that person may be a criminal, no one will condemn me even if I am wrong.I guess there has to be some understanding of things.

I called my brother-in-law to the apartment and told him I had something important to say.I don't understand how my brother-in-law interpreted the "important words". After he came, he knelt at my feet as soon as he opened the door and said, "I will try my best to compensate you. I hope you don't say that this child is mine." I can't see my brother-in-law's face clearly, but I can feel that he is very disturbed. Maybe my sister said something before he came here.My room is next to the stairs on the second floor. Maybe someone will pass by here, but the person in front of me has been kneeling there with his head down, and said in an excuse: "It's not my child..." That looks very pitiful.It saddens me to think that he is the father of the child.Why tell such people important things?Moreover, if you go to the prefectural police station, isn't Ando there?I regret why I never realized this.

I was about to leave the room when suddenly he hugged me tightly from behind and forced me to the stairs. My brother-in-law wants to kill me, no, he wants to kill the child in my stomach.Even though it's his child, he did this for his sister, who is very important to him, for his sake, he wants to take away what I cherish, which is absolutely impossible! It's just that no matter how angry I am, I want to protect my child. Although my brother-in-law is thin, he is still a man, and he is still a policeman. I struggled hard, but I couldn't break free from his arm. null.I thought to myself, this is over.At this moment, the mobile phone in the skirt pocket rang. It was the theme song of a famous criminal investigation film.At that moment, the brother-in-law seemed taken aback and let go.

At the same time, I turned around and pushed my brother-in-law's chest hard with the free hand. Sorry, my sister sent me a text message. Brother-in-law seems to be hopeless. You were the one who made the call, right?After my brother-in-law rolled down the stairs, I turned on my phone to call an ambulance when I saw a caller ID from an unknown number.Despite some doubts in my heart, I called an ambulance first and explained what happened to the emergency personnel who arrived. "It's my fault. I remembered the relevant clues about the murder case fifteen years ago, so I called my brother-in-law, who was a policeman, to have a talk with him. Finally, we decided to go to the police station together. I almost stepped on my foot because we were in such a hurry. Empty stairs... In the end, my brother-in-law, who was going to save me, stepped on the air and rolled down the stairs. I'm sorry, I'm sorry..."

I cried and cried, and suddenly my stomach started to hurt. Although it was still a little early before the due date, we finally came here together in an ambulance.Not long after that, I received a call from you, saying that I happened to be nearby and hoped to meet up, so I called you to the hospital.Were you at my apartment by then?And, you also see part of what happened.It was a coincidence that I called at that moment of life and death. ...As expected. You're thinking how nice it is to be able to save me, aren't you?Or are you feeling very disturbed?The last girl finally killed someone too, right in front of your eyes.Are you disturbed?If so, why didn't you stop me sooner?When you came to the apartment and saw a man coming to my room, you secretly watched out of curiosity, right?

Your saying you're so sorry for us is just empty talk, maybe you still hate us and think it's our fault that Emery was killed. But I don't think so.We were actually just drawn into the case, and the killer didn't pick Emily out of the five of us, but had her eye on her from the start.Does it have something to do with the baby ring at that time?Also, is it related to you as the ring holder?Perhaps, do you know the man named Nanjo who runs the free school? As for the evidence... I once heard a rumor from a friend who quarreled with her husband about the due date. She said that Emili and his father were not related by blood.The president changed not long ago, right?It seems that a lot happened at that time.The rumors may be all false, but I don't think it can be completely denied. This is not just a judgment made by intuition during pregnancy.

For example, the slender corners of Emily's eyes don't look like yours. Is it because her genetics are unreliable?Also, when you called us over, you said something like this: "Only I, as Emili's mother, have the right to do so. Only I..." This bookmark is for you, I don’t know if it can be used as evidence, or as a thank you for saving the child in my stomach... I always thought that I was the only one who was not affected by that incident, but maybe I still couldn’t get rid of your sentence in the end The curse of words. Now, the four of them have fulfilled their agreement with you, haven't they?So, what are you going to do next?Yes, you are rich and powerful, you can tell the police that I pushed my brother-in-law down the stairs and do whatever you want, but I will not thank you for protecting me.

It's time for me to go to the delivery room.Long day, fifteen long years, and now I have only one thought, if only my baby's birthday wasn't on August 14th. That's all.
