"Kacha … Kacha kacha."

It was a noise that made people frown.

"Huh?

I can't open the door … "

??

Sigma??

??

It's a little noisy … Miao Mu mumbled vaguely. He rolled over in annoyance and pulled the blanket higher to cover his ears.

His body was very heavy, and some parts of his body were sore and soft. He sank into the blanket and was too lazy to even open his eyelids.

After a while, the bed behind him sank slightly.??

Φ Male?

Gao??

Dizziness???

Tug?

Bridge?

Yong Jun?

What the hell is a girl …

"Stop messing with me,??

Η Ammonia Disease??

Bi???

Yong Yong Jun?

Yong Jun?

Unsheathed Yi Scabbard and Chopped Onion Workers?

Yong Jun?

"Well, that's true."

The tone of the reply was a little regretful. "If Naegi-kun is a girl, you can use the surname???

Α Si Jun!

Miao Mu was speechless and gloomily grabbed his hand that was unruly under the blanket.

"No, no …" He was so tired that he wanted to fall asleep. He begged for mercy. "Senior, don't always bully me."

Before his consciousness fell into darkness, his last impression was???

Θ Carbon??

Male?

"Ding, dong … Ding, dong."

Naegi Makoto slowly opened his eyes.

"Good morning, students!"

The voice that sounded above his head was unusually optimistic and cheerful as usual. It was impossible to tell if it was a man or a woman, or if it was an old person or a young person. It was transmitted to his ears through the static broadcast. "It's already seven in the morning, time to get up!

Let's work hard today as well! "

Monokuma on the screen said this and turned off the broadcast.

"… What's the situation,??

Η Ammonia Wood?

Yong Jun?

Naegi Makoto stared at the black screen that only showed the Hope Peak emblem.

Unexpectedly, there was no reply.

“??

Η Ammonia Glass

He got up abruptly, and the subtle discomfort in his body only reached his senses a moment later. Miao Mu paused for a moment, glanced at the camera installed in the corner of the ceiling, and slowly lifted the blanket.

There was no sticky feeling, and his clothes were still on his body. Aside from some hidden feelings, it was as if he had just woken up from a deep sleep.

Besides, there was no one else in the room other than himself.

There was a used cleaning paper roll at the foot of the bed. There was a key with the word "Nursery" written on it on the round table in the middle of the room. There was a notice left by Monokuma on the wall, saying that they had prepared different weapons for male and female freshmen. There was also a rule that stated that there would be no water in the bathrooms at night and that the female dormitory's bathroom door should be locked.

He tore off the notice and stuffed it into the empty trash can.

Was it because he was a little bothered by the past?

U???

Fall?

Muay?

Xie Poke Poro Lu Dining Restaurant, some Taowu?

Ten years ago?

The Grave of Barney Mae

A boy's tool box. It's normal, but I don't plan on using this kind of thing that Monokuma prepared for me …

There was a message board on the bedside table, but there was no writing on it. Miao Mu let out a sigh of disappointment, and only then did he notice the time.

7: 15 … Did Monokuma just say that it's already morning?

Yesterday, he experienced the inexplicable opening ceremony, then he was knocked out by Ōwada, then he had a beautiful dream that Monokuma didn't exist, and when he woke up at night … he slept until now.

After realizing that he had slept for almost a day and a night, his stomach started to protest.

"Ah — I'm so hungry."

Let's go wash my face first and then go out to find food.

Miao Mu grabbed the bathroom door handle, "Huh?

It won't turn? "

"Kacha, kacha, kacha, kacha, kacha …"

"That's strange, only the female dormitory can lock the door …"

"Huff, huff, huff, is Miao Miao in trouble?"

Monokuma seemed to have enjoyed Miao Mu's helplessness in front of the door, and appeared behind him without warning. Its two paws covered its mouth as it snickered.

"Wah!

Where did you come from?! "The brown-haired boy jumped back in fright.

"That's not important."

Monokuma tilted its head cutely, looking very innocent, and said in a particularly pure tone, "Speaking of which, Naegi-kun is a bit out of my expectations. He's surprisingly agile."

When the boy's cheeks turned red, it snickered again, "Ah, that's good. What a good expression. If we were to rank, Naegi-kun's cute blushing face would definitely be in the top three of Hope Peak's murderous scenes. No matter if it's a girl or a boy, they would be excited to see it, right?"

Miao Mu was speechless.

He was speechless as he watched Monokuma indulge in its performance. It made obscene and exaggerated panting sounds while twisting its waist and saying things like "I'm going to spit out white cotton." There were too many things to complain about. He didn't even have the urge to be angry, let alone being embarrassed by its teasing. All that was left was exhaustion.

"If you just want to talk about these boring topics, then don't disturb me," he said unhappily.

"Oh?

Boring topics? "

Monokuma blinked, its dark eyes staring straight at him. Its voice suddenly rose, "Hey, hey, Naegi-kun, what do you think is an interesting topic?"

"…"

"Is it the reason why you have to live together in this academy for an indefinite period of time?

Or is it the problem of which guy you don't like to choose to get rid of?

Pfft, pfft, pfft, or … are you worried about other problems? "

"Monokuma."

Naegi Makoto's expression didn't change, but he slowly clenched his fingers, "You can't be the principal of Hope Peak Academy."

"What?!"

"Hope Peak Academy is a world-famous elite academy. It is also a cradle of talent that has been given a lot of privileges by the government. For so many years, it has been sending the best of the best to society. Many people say that as long as you enter this academy, it is equivalent to half of your life's success …" Naegi Makoto calmly recited Hope Peak's introduction, looking down at him, "For so many years, this super elite academy has been operating steadily. It is also a school that has always been the focus of attention from the outside world. No matter how I think about it, it can't be like this."

"Oh?

Is that what you think? "

Naegi Makoto took a deep breath, "I don't know how you and the person controlling you behind the scenes imprisoned the freshmen of Hope Peak here, but seeing that we have no ability to resist your control, it's time for you to come clean, right?

Don't talk about being a student principal anymore. Tell me the truth, what is your purpose? "

"Pfft, pfft, you're talking about my purpose of imprisoning you here?"

Monokuma seemed to have heard the funniest joke, "How strange, the cute Naegi-kun actually said the word 'imprisonment'. It's so scary. I'm so scared that my springs are about to come out."

"… Don't change the subject."

"I'm not changing the subject. I'm a bear famous for the virtue of honesty."

Monokuma jumped to Miao Mu's feet and began to complain, "Really, the selfish youngsters nowadays can't understand the kindness of others anymore.

I've already provided a way to leave. It's all your fault for locking yourselves in here … "

A way to leave?

"As long as one of you kills any of the other students, you can graduate from this academy and leave this place."

"…"

"In the end, I'm actually looking forward to your graduation."

Monokuma chattered on, as if it could plant its annoying words in the hearts of its listeners. It used a sales pitch as if it was about to run out of patience, "Hurry up and do it. It's very simple. I want someone to graduate successfully more than anyone else."

A chill ran down Miao Mu's spine in an instant.

"Are you kidding me … No one will let you get what you want!"

Miao Mu thought about how Monokuma almost exploded in the hands of Ōwada. He gritted his teeth and restrained his desire to attack, "Who is the mastermind behind you?"

"Well …" It slowly dragged out its tone and looked at Miao Mu from the corner of its eyes, "Who knows?"

"…"

"Pfft, pfft, maybe it's someone you've already met?

Right, maybe you already have a suspect in your mind?

Is it the person who doesn't even want to reveal his name?

Or was it the person whose past was a mystery in order to remain a mystery?

Or … is it the person who shouldn't have appeared but appeared?

Pfft, pfft, pfft, who is it that makes you feel that something is wrong? "

It mysteriously covered its mouth with both hands, and a pair of small black eyes peeked at every change of expression on Miao Mu's face. Its comical tone suddenly became terrifying.
