Chapter 12,5
"Hello, Saki. My name is Kusanagi Nene."
The same voice who had answered her call with Emu's phone came out of the robot.
"I'm recording this message to tell you the truth."
"What…?"
Saki walked closer to Robo-Nene as she continued playing the recording.
"Know that if it were for me, I wouldn't be doing this. I'm sure you'd be better without this information. But… I'm doing this for someone else."
Nene said, her voice sounding worried.
"Your brother… He uhm… He did something. He uh… killed someone."
Saki's eyes widened.
"I know it may be hard to believe, given how he is generally. But your brother is a murderer now, Saki…"
"No… No, he couldn't do that-"
Saki ran away, picking up her phone beforehand and going to a place she'd discovered recently.
Neither Miku nor Luka were nowhere to be seen, their instruments still where they were yesterday beside her synth.
She checked all the classrooms, and finally found someone.
"Oh, Luka!!"
Luka turned around, small tears running down Saki's face as she hugged Luka.
"Woah, is everything alright, Saki?"
Luka asked, looking down at Saki.
"Has it ever happened to you that… everyone you love is gone..?"
Lukas's gaze softened, her concern for the blonde growing.
"What happened?"
Saki and Luka moved to one of the many classrooms in the Sekai, Luka tuning a guitar while Saki sat down.
"My brother… He's been missing for a couple days along with many different people I know… I went to Tsukasa's job to look for answers and he's…"
Saki started to sob, tripping on her words.
"He murdered someone, Luka, my brother…!"
Luka stood up, pulling Saki into another hug and patting her on the back as she did.
Saki stands up, walking to the door.
"I'm… Going to the rooftop for a bit for some air, sorry."
"Hey… hey… It's okay, Saki. Don't apologise.."
She went up the stairs, little teardrops still forming in her eyes.
Opening the door, she gasped, seeing a familiar grey haired girl she thought she'd never see again.
"Shiho?"
