Part 75: Keitaro Miura 6
Chapter 75: Keitaro Miura 6
Music: LONER (Azusa Chiba)
Weve got a lot of thoughts to consider at the moment, so lets jump right in.
Consider Renya Gouto
(Renya Gouto Hes the one who took Chihiro from me. He might be the same guy that Tamao-san gets her pills from.)
Consider Natsuno Minami
(According to Natsuno-san a boy named Renya Gouto attends school in this era. He can apparently travel through time, too. And BJ said hes from 80 years in the future.)
Consider 1985
(Back in 1945, everyone mysteriously vanished. But here in 1985, 40 years later theres no historical evidence or impact from that event. It reminds me of a concept I read about in a science book. The idea of two similar, parallel worlds )
Consider Time Travel
(According to the history of this era it has indeed been 40 years. But this era doesnt seem to be based on the era Im from. The two arent connected. Perhaps this isnt really time travel after all )
Consider Chihiro
(Renya Gouto Hes the one who took Chihiro from me. If hes in 1985 then Chihiro will be with him.)
Consider Sentinel
(Even if I do bring the Sentinel back home How can I bring myself to fight? The ones I swore to protect are gone )
No need to carry a lantern around.
Consider Renya Gouto
After Consider-ing Natsuno Minami, we can Consider Renya Gouto once more to progress.
(Could he be at the school? I dont care what it takes. Im going to find him. And Im going to get Chihiro back.)
Hey, Shintaro.
Bye, Shintaro.
Consider Renya Gouto
(Renya Gouto is Natsuno-sans senpai. He also attends the school in 1985. And according to BJ hes from even further into the future.)
Natsuno-san
Music: BUDDIES (Azusa Chiba)
I was just about to go looking for you.
Same here. Ive been worried about you, Miura-kun
I cant even imagine how you must be feeling. You okay?
Use Renya Gouto on Natsuno Minami
In fact, I came here to find Renya Gouto. But I have no idea what he looks like or how he dresses.
Miura, you ran into a teenage boy carting around a girl who looks exactly like Chihiro a couple of days ago. Put two and two together here, man.
Could you point him out to me?
That might be a little tough Gouto-senpai hasnt been back on campus. I asked around, and no teacher knows where he lives.
Well Thats a problem.
MIWAKO
Miwako!
Thats what I said!
Done with practice already?
Oh!
The one you took when he wasnt looking?
H-Hey!
Miwako, thats an invasion of privacy! For shame! I forgive you, though.
Sorry, sorry. So do you have it?
Yeah
Miura-kun! Look, Ive got a picture of Gouto-senpai.
This here is Renya Gouto? The one with the glasses?
Yup, thats him. Thanks, Miwako.
*nervous grunt of acknowledgement*
Whats going on between you and that guy?
Huh? Nothings going on Just a normal, casual friendship.
Casual? You mean
N-No. Not that
What a dirty mind you have, Miwako.
Consider Renya Gouto
How could this be? The man I saw at the park was Renya Gouto. The bastard who kidnapped Chihiro
And then Miura just ditches Natsuno and Miwako.
Music: Beyond the Memories (Rikako Watanabe)
Isnt it? Please say something.
Okay, thats enough cardio for today.
Use Stuffed Rabbit
I meant to give it back to you earlier
This is your favorite stuffed animal, isnt it?
Dont lose it again, all right?
Im so relieved youre safe.
Buh?????
Music: Hard Pill to Swallow (Kikuchi Yukinori)
Morimura?
Sometimes, a bold change in plans is necessary. Youd know that better than anyone. Wouldnt you, Gouto-kun?
Renya Gouto What the hell did you do to Chihiro?
*sigh*
But what you see here is Chihiro in her original state. She was never your little sister to begin with.
Shut up Im not listening to a word you say. I wont forgive you and I will avenge Tamao-san.
I believe you misunderstand the situation.
Listen to your big brother, and come with me. Were going.
We need to prioritize gaining control over all systems. Youve always been the dependable type. You used to be an excellent design engineer.
What are you talking about?
Ill always be on your side, Chihiro. Thats what you told me, remember? So please, cooperate.
*sigh* Is everything prepared, Gouto-kun?
All ready.
Good Then I shouldnt waste any more time. Lets hurry.
*shakes head*
Chihiro is coming with me.
And I highly doubt you have the capacity to protect her.
What ? Who would
Let me know.
God, what a smug prick Gouto is.
Consider Chihiro
(Whats happened to her ? Chihiro Morimura? Shes the original Chihiro? Is there no going back to the way she used to be? Chihiro )
Consider Ei Sekigahara
(Sekigahara Did he travel through time, too? Is that how he got here?)
How are things looking?
Theyre searching for Kiriko-san.
I cant believe shes a spy
They seem to think shes associated with him. He mustve dragged her into this. I just dont understand Why protect a wanted man?
Music: Deafening Silence (Mitsuhiro Kaneda)
Her name isnt Kiriko Douji. And she doesnt come from this world.
I dont get it What could she want with the Sentinel?
You really are a spy.
If she were to try and escape shed likely use the gate. If we leave now, we might be able to catch up with her.
Sekigahara-san. Please I have to know the truth. I was told that my parents arent really my parents. And that I was brought here from the future.
Is that what Kiriko Douji told you?
I dont know why shed lie. But I think that explains the dreams I keep having.
Shes tampered with your memories.
Dont listen to a word he says, Tamao-san. We should just turn him in.
Keitaro-san, please. I dont want it to come to that.
Keitaro?
How the hell do you know my name?
What are you on about now?
You and I have been fighting alongside each other.
Ive never seen you before in my life.
The Miura of this era hasnt. The Miura of the future has.
The future?
Yes. He no longer has his physical body. His consciousness is currently stored inside a scout unit.
Then Keitaro-san is
One and the same.
Ive had enough of this nonsense.
Sekigahara-san!
You bastard
Like you said, Im out of my mind. Poison is coursing through my brain as we speak.
Were going to need to progress Natsuno further to see Miuras next scene. Coincidentally, this is the same scene that locks off Eis next event.
And some more Mystery File updates.
