Surprisingly, I had already known three of the five names.

that's already more than enough to call it a major incident.

The trouble for the girls' basketball team was a bit foreign in nature for me

And among all that, the trouble for the girls' basketball team

is a bit foreign in nature for me

but rather from training and teamwork.

'Ruga will likely deny this, but to be blunt, the Naoetsu High Girls' B-ball team

was the extracurricular activity of Suruga Kanbaru, by Suruga Kanbaru, and for Suruga Kanbaru.

The problem was that after you retired from injuring your left arm,

that framework was completely inherited by the team.

While I was captain, I tried every trick in the book to somehow make things work well.

But as soon as I retired in April, it immediately all fell apart.

Sports isn't something you have to suffer over to play.

So if it's that painful, I just think you should just quit.

So if it's that painful, I think you should just quit.

Some have already quit, of course.

Though, they didn't turn in a letter of resignation.

They quit because they got injured during practice.

We had to do something about it, so the third-year alumni gathered around

and had a discussion, saying it wasn't this, it wasn't that.

It wasn't like we took one measure or another to solve it, but instead, it seems to have backfired.

We really tried to do something about it, but in the end it just backfired.

And in the past few days, team members stopped coming to school one after another.

And in the past few days, team members have stopped coming to school one after another.

On the surface, it looks like there are no issues whatsoever, which makes it even more terrible.

Once things settled down, and for those who felt agony got a strange sense of satisfaction,

Once things settle down, the girls who suffered the most would be filled with relief,

and sometimes enter a state of euphoria, which paralyzes them.

or perhaps you'd call it euphoria— and that makes them numb.

When everyone criticized the girls who thoughtlessly made complaints,

When everyone dogpiled on the girls who thoughtlessly made complaints,

they seemed to have a strange sense of fun making those criticisms.

they seemed to have a strange sense of fun flaming.

It's hard for us to change this structure from our end as well, Araragi-senpai.

It's hard for us to change this structure from our end as well, Araragi.

Because that structure is what our generation created.

So what they're doing is basically the same thing as what we were doing.

Right. The only difference is how they feel about it.

No. Maybe we were in the wrong after all.

Like how coaches who experienced corporal punishment and pecking orders gone too far,

Like how coaches who experienced corporal punishment and pecking orders gone too far

won't change their opinions, and would say,

won't change their opinions, and even say,

"It may not be suitable for current times, but it was good in its own way."

I mean, from the day I joined to the day I retired, every day should have been fun, I think?

I mean, from the day I joined to the day I retired, I believe I had fun every day.

The school tells us to keep quiet about this,

and when we were getting rather desperate from the whole thing,

and when we were running out of ideas for good,

that's when Araragi-hentai approached us.

that's when your perverted visage appeared.

I felt this was a blessing from heaven.

All right, Higasa.

I don't think someone unsociable like me

I don't think someone unsociable like me would be able to get involved in a delicate affair between girls.

would be able to get involved in a delicate affair between girls.

But if you lend me that roster, I promise that I'll do everything I can

But if you could lend me that roster, I promise that I will do everything I can

so that at least from hereon, none of your underclassmen will go missing anymore.

That's enough for me for you to say that.

That's good enough for me.

By the way, Araragi-senpai...

By the way, Araragi...

Do you have a girlfriend?

Indeed.

The shadows in the hearts of the girls' basketball team members carrying depressing emotions like,

"Why do I have to sacrifice academics to devote myself to rigorous practice

if the upperclassman I admire is no longer here?" That may have attracted a vampire.

That theory definitely has persuasive power.

So you're saying apparitions have reasons suitable for them?

Oddities appear because there's a reason for them to, right?

Well, that niece of mine didn't really get faster at running from positive reasons, either.

Well, the reason that niece of mine got faster at running wasn't exactly positive, either.

That's right.

The superstar wasn't born a superstar.

More like, she was a girl who had to become a superstar.

Because she made a wish to a monkey.

Because she wished upon a monkey.

Even after being released from the monkey,

it's not like she'll be released from the distress of puberty.

Well, getting annoyed by your kohai is the fate of a senpai.

Well, getting annoyed by your protégés is the fate we share.

And to make Koyomin's easily made promise come true, you have to put some spirit into this.

And now you're bound by that promise you made on a whim. Time to put some spirit into this.

First, let's prioritize looking for the other two team members who've gone missing.

Misago Kangu,

Kangu Misago

and Sowa Kiseki.

and Kiseki Sowa.

That's right, Ms. Gaen.

That reminds me, Gaen.

This was more like an afterthought.

But can that living message that we thought Kuchimoto wrote on her flash cards

But could that living message that we thought Kuchimoto wrote on her flash cards

be a signature left by the vampire?

It's very much possible.

It's quite possible.

However, similar signatures were not found from the belongings of Kie Harimaze here

However, I didn't find similar signatures in the belongings of Harimaze Kie here

or Aburi Honno in the next room over.

or Honno Aburi in the next room over.

This naturally goes for the living message as well,

but if the "B777Q" written on that flash card was a signature,

then there should be a code left behind near all the mummies.

In the case of Kuchimoto, she was inside an abandoned shack,

so the vampire could take their time to work without worrying about other people?

so perhaps the vampire could take their time to work without worrying about being seen?

I did run some handwriting analysis.

But I couldn't come to a definitive result.

It didn't seem like the two handwritings matched,

but if it was written in a hurry while being assaulted by the vampire,

it's only natural to be in disarray.

messiness is only natural.

You're right.

As the hunter,

As the hunters,

it makes it easy if the vampire is highly self-assertive because they become easy to find.

it makes it easy for us if the vampire is highly self-assertive because they become easy to find.

That said, as the commander, I would like to input tonight's commands for Koyomin.

That said, as the commander, I would like to input your commands for tonight.

Oh, okay. What is it?

Oh, okay. What do you need?

This is something that only you can do, Koyomin.

I want you to suppress Shinobu for the night.

I want you to keep Shinobu occupied for the night.

You're hiding something from me, aren't you?

Come on now. What are you saying out of the blue, Shinobu?

If you're going to doubt me like that, our relationship of codependence is over.

Like hell it's over. We're in deep.

As you can see, I'm tied to your shadows firmly, like I was nailed down onto it.

As you can see, I'm tied to your shadow firmly, like I was nailed down onto it.

Come on now.

Here you go, Shinobu. I got you a lot of your favorite donuts, you see?

I have some Golden Chocolate, okay?

That's why you're highly suspicious, my master.

This is exactly what's making me suspicious, my master.

Stop that wheedling catty voice.

You're trying to trick me so suddenly.

She's quite sharp. Like a fang.

Damn it, Ms. Gaen really is asking for the impossible.

Damn it, Gaen really is asking for the impossible.

Hiding something from Shinobu is harder than hiding something from my parents.

Because we are alter egos, inseverable even if you cut us apart.

Because we're one now—inseverable even if you cut us apart.

Hey, come on now. See, here's some limited-time flavors from Mister Donuts.

Hey, come on now. See, here's some limited-time flavors from Mister Donut.

You know, you can't dodge the question by saying things like that.

Huh?

It's half Pon de Ring, and half Old Fashioned?

What is this dream of a donut?

What is this dream of a donut?!

Impressive!

Wonderful!

It's 10:00 PM right now, so about seven more hours till sunrise.

It's 10 PM right now, so about seven more hours till sunrise.

Can I even keep going for that long?

That's right, Shinobu.

There was something I've always wanted to ask you

ever since we had that memorable spring break.

If you had feelings that lasted as long as a year and a half, why didn't you ask me sooner?

If you had feelings that lasted a year and a half, why didn't you ask me sooner?

Back during that spring break,

you sucked my blood and I became an immortal vampire, right?

you sucked my blood, and I became an immortal vampire, right?

You remember, right?

You were on the verge of extermination.

"Dying in this way is just like me. It's not bad."

"This is a very me way to die. I can't complain."

I said with a nihilistic grin, as I offered my own neck.

What happened to your memory skills?

Did you use it all up with those college entrance studies?

If my vampirization had failed back then, what would have happened?

What kind of meaning does failed vampirization have for the vampire to begin with?

I suppose the time has finally come for me to talk about that.

You have matured, my master.

Though, you're immortal, so you don't really mature!

Don't say a joke then refute it yourself.

And I'm no longer immortal, either.

Starting with the conclusion.

I'll cut to the chase.

If you had failed back then to become my minion, my slave,

If you had failed back then to become my kin—my slave—

Starting with the conclusion.
If you had failed back then to become my minion, my slave,
you would have become a zombie with no ability to think.
Hey, don't you remember?
It's that time we saw the horde of living corpses in an alternate timeline.
Oh right, there was that.
I see. I hadn't connected that with the mummies from the current case.
But now that she mentioned it, I'd already seen previous cases.
If those were examples of failures, and a mound of them at that...
It means in that timeline, the "Shinobu Oshino from a different route" was reckless,
with no objective nor motive.
Can the vampire we're dealing with now be acting recklessly as well?
Though, I don't know enough vampires to think about different patterns.
It's just like the number of friends I had in high school.
I can count them all on one hand.
They were all somehow tied to Shinobu.
No, wait.
Wait, wait, wait, wait.
That's right. This is also definitely an oversight. No doubt about it.
If it's tied with Shinobu, even if there isn't an immediate connection...
I'm aware of the existence of one other vampire.
Shinobu.
The vampire who turned you into a vampire...
The original source vampire for me.
Come to think, I've never heard much about them.
I suppose the time has finally come for me to talk about that.
The vampire of prepared death, inevitable death, and certain death...
The one who created me, and the one who gave me a name.
Deathtopia Virtuoso Suicide-Master.
It's time to talk about her.
It's not the whole story, but I get the gist of it.
This is why Ms. Gaen ordered me to keep Shinobu suppressed for tonight.
What's wrong?
Are you intimidated?
That's only natural. As you can see, it makes me tremble as well.
Though, I myself had forgotten that I used to be human
until the incidents that happened with you last year.
I haven't seen Suicide-Master for close to 600 years now.
A truly reckless way of life. She is the true vampire.
Though she must be long since crumbled into dust by now.
Hey, Shinobu.
You said reckless way of life, but what kind of life was it specifically?
Let's see...
Compared to me, a foul eater who eats anything, apparition or whatever it may be,
she was a gourmet vampire.
Once she decides the menu,
she will not put anything else in her mouth. That's how stubborn she was.
And back in the day,
Suicide-Master decided to suck my blood when I was still human.
And because of that, she almost starved to death.
So I kind of let her suck my blood out of pity.
"Dying in this way is just like me. It's not bad."
Nihilistically...
You're saying the same thing I did.
You can't fight blood.
Huh?
Why so suddenly, after all this time, am I talking about Suicide-Master?
Coming! Just one second!
Welcome.
Over here, Devil Boy.
Well, well, if it isn't Ononoki.
You came at a really good time.
Now, don't be modest.
Come sit on my lap.
My lap is your booster seat.
You know, before you say disgusting stuff,
you should retort at Doll Girl's skit where she knocked on the door yet appeared outside the window.
Make yourself at home, Noble Ononoki.
Nobility?
Fortunately, I'm not bored enough to relax on Devil Boy's lap.
Ms. Gaen mentioned it, too.
That Ononoki was currently working on a different case.
If so, what's the reason?
What? I need a reason to come over?
Fwip.
I had stepped out for work,
and when I finally came home, that idiot Tsukihi was in the room.
She's studying or something.
But it seems I am unwanted over here as well.
So since I'm not bored, I'll just excuse myself so you can continue on with your discussion.
Oh, that's right.
Here you go. A souvenir.
What's this?
It's a fortune from North Shirahebi Shrine, where the lost girl is the god.
Fair Fortune. I can't really tell if this is good or bad.
What's this?
You said you were working but you were goofing off at Lost Girl's place?
You should've invited me, too.
It wasn't like I was playing.
Though a rookie, Big Sister Mayoi is still the lost child that governs over this town.
In terms of working, I have to set things straight with her or I'll pay for it.
Ononoki.
Until Tsukihi vacates her room, you can relax and hang out here.
The booster seat and the child is heading out on a midnight cruise right now.
Oh, how embarrassing.
You have finally caught sight of how I am secretly training.
What part of this is secret?
It was like you weren't sitting under a waterfall, but basking in the limelight.
Oh dear. A breathtakingly beautiful woman isn't someone like this.
It isn't?
Anyway, long time no see, Mr. Aplysia.
It indeed has been a while, but my name is Araragi.
Forgive me, I flubbed it.
No, that was on purpose.
I fwubbed it!
It wasn't on purpose?
Debbulf I yrros.
Even if she says it backwards, it wasn't on purpose?
I wanted to see you as well, Ms. Samurai.
Who's a samurai? You and your anagrams turned a ninja into a samurai.
My name is Shinobu.
Wait, I have to do this, too?
Forgive me, I flubbed it.
No, that was on purpose.
I fwubbed it!
It wasn't on purpose?
Fluids robbery.
It's not intentional even with an anagram!?
Rather. Ms. Anagra.
You're getting pulled in.
This downward slope will never end if you keep connecting new ways to flub things.
Rather, rather, Mr. Araragi.
I called you over all the way to the mountain peak in the middle of the night for none other than...
wanting to introduce you to a young girl.
Oh? It seems you have somewhat of a circumstance here.
If she introduced you to a young girl with no circumstances,
she'd be one seriously dangerous person.
To be precise, I want to introduce Ms. Shinobu, not Mr. Araragi.
It seems you were the one who was the seriously dangerous person, Shinobu.
Don't sound so proud while still having a young girl on your shoulders.
Don't shrug. I'll cling onto you.
So, Lost Girl. There's a young girl you want to introduce me to?
Yes. Over here.
S-Suicide-Master?
H-How you have changed so much.
H-Hey, Shinobu. What are you talking...
Look out! Be careful, Shinobu!
Hachikuji.
Let me say that the young girl mummy was naked to begin with.
And it wasn't a mummy to begin with, either.
What do you mean? What in the world happened?
Oh, God. What exactly is going on in this town right now?
Shinobu, what kind of condition is that mummy in?
I mean, the naked young girl.
I'm astonished that Suicide-Master, the one who created you and named you, was a young girl.
But that condition...
Is it similar to a zombie when you fail to become a vampire?
Negative. If anything, this is cryptobiosis.
Not a living corpse, but more like in critical condition...
That's why you called for us, didn't you, Lost Girl?
Yes. For a guest from overseas to die abroad would be a terrible thing to wake up to as the ruler.
That's why, to learn about the truth behind this,
I want Mr. Araragi to procure some medicine for this individual to recover.
Medicine? What kind?
And procure? From where?
It doesn't exist in this world.
But it does in the afterlife, as you are aware.
A-Afterlife?
You say "as you are aware" but I'm not aware of anything like that.
You should be aware of it, Mr. Araragi.
I mean, you just traveled there the other day.
To Hell.
It's Blood Pond Hell.
Oh, brother. I have no choice.
Looks like I have to go there.
To my second homeland...
To Hell.
Ms. Shinobu, please do the honors.
Sure thing.
I have long since waited for a chance to slay your rude self like this.
How dare you disgrace me by making me sit in a booster seat.
I-I thought you were happy about that!
Why are you telling me it was agonizing at this point in time?
And what's with that chuckle? Why aren't you laughing like you usually do?
Revenge is a delicious soup especially when it is served cold.
I totally thought our relationship was so close that soup wouldn't get cold!
Have a taste of 400 years worth of continued swordsmanship training.
My Life Death Style has seven ultimate techniques.
Ultimate Technique One, Indescribable Subtle Beauty.
Ultimate Technique Two, Beauties of Nature.
Ultimate Technique Three, Hundred Flower Bloom.
Ultimate Technique Four, Natural Beauty of Spring.
Ultimate Technique Five, Impermanence of Things.
Ultimate Technique Six, Crowning Beauty with Glory.
Ultimate Technique Seven, Utter Shambles.
And the final ultimate technique of Life Death Style
where all seven ultimate techniques are unleashed at once.
Torn to Pieces!
Huh?
So I was supposed to fall down to Hell, but instead I rose up to Heaven by mistake?
Oh geez. My goodness.
So those who are watching really are watching my day-to-day behavior.
Precisely.
You are not as evil of a human as you may think you are.
Pardon me for being in such a guise, Lord Araragi.
B-Beautiful Princess?
Correct. There are people who call me by that name.
But please, here in Heaven, call me Princess Acerola.

Surprisingly, I had already heard three of the five names.
Harimaze Kie.
Honno Aburi.
Kuchimoto Kyoumi.
But the problem was that there were apparently two additional female students missing.
If there were five missing students,
that alone made it a major incident.
The trouble for the girls' basketball team was a bit foreign in nature for me
because it was not trouble stemming from Naoetsu's demanding classes and exams,
but rather from training and teamwork.
Ruga will likely deny this, but to be blunt, the Naoetsu High girls' basketball team
was the extracurricular activity of Kanbaru Suruga, by Kanbaru Suruga, and for Kanbaru Suruga.
The problem was that after you retired from injuring your left arm,
that framework was completely inherited by the team.
While I was captain, I tried every trick in the book to somehow make things work.
But as soon as I retired in April, it all fell apart in a flash.
Sports isn't something you should suffer over to play.
So if it's that painful, I think you should just quit.
Some have already quit, of course.
Though, they didn't turn in a letter of resignation.
They quit because they got injured during practice.
We had to do something about it, so the third-year alumni gathered around
and had a discussion, saying it wasn't this, it wasn't that.
We really tried to do something about it, but in the end it just backfired.
And in the past few days, team members have stopped coming to school one after another.
On the surface, it looks like there are no issues whatsoever, which makes it even more terrible.
Once things settle down, the girls who suffered the most would be filled with relief,
or perhaps you'd call it euphoria— and that makes them numb.
When everyone dogpiled on the girls who thoughtlessly made complaints,
they seemed to have a strange sense of fun flaming.
It's hard for us to change this structure from our end as well, Araragi.
Because that structure is what our generation created.
So what they're doing is basically the same thing as what we were doing.
Right. The only difference is how they feel about it.
No. Maybe we were in the wrong after all.
Like how coaches who experienced corporal punishment and pecking orders gone too far
won't change their opinions, and even say,
"It may not be suitable for current times, but it was good in its own way."
I mean, from the day I joined to the day I retired, I believe I had fun every day.
The school told us to keep quiet about this,
and when we were running out of ideas for good,
that's when your perverted visage appeared.
I felt this was a blessing from heaven.
All right, Higasa.
I don't think someone unsociable like me would be able to get involved in a delicate affair between girls.
But if you lend me that roster, I promise that I'll do everything I can
so that at least from hereon, none of your underclassmen will go missing anymore.
That's good enough for me.
By the way, Araragi...
Do you have a girlfriend?
Indeed.
The shadows in the hearts of the girls' basketball team members carrying depressing emotions like,
"Why do I have to sacrifice academics to devote myself to rigorous practice
if the upperclassman I admire is no longer here?" That may have attracted a vampire.
That theory definitely has persuasive power.
Oddities appear because there's a reason for them to, right?
Well, the reason that niece of mine got faster at running wasn't exactly positive, either.
That's right.
The superstar wasn't born a superstar.
More like, she was a girl who had to become a superstar.
Because she wished upon a monkey.
Even after being released from the monkey,
it's not like she'll be released from the distress of puberty.
Well, getting annoyed by your protégés is the fate we share.
And now you're bound by that promise you made on a whim. Time to put some spirit into this.
First, let's prioritize looking for the other two team members who've gone missing.
Kangu Misago
and Kiseki Sowa.
That reminds me, Gaen.
This was more like an afterthought.
But could that living message that we thought Kuchimoto wrote on her flash cards
be a signature left by the vampire?
It's quite possible.
However, I didn't find similar signatures in the belongings of Harimaze Kie here
or Honno Aburi in the next room over.
This naturally goes for the living message as well,
but if the "B777Q" written on that flash card was a signature,
then there should be a code left behind near all the mummies.
In the case of Kuchimoto, she was inside an abandoned shack,
so perhaps the vampire could take their time to work without worrying about being seen?
I did run some handwriting analysis.
But I couldn't come to a definitive result.
It didn't seem like the two handwritings matched,
but if it was written in a hurry while being assaulted by the vampire,
messiness is only natural.
You're right.
As the hunters,
it makes it easy for us if the vampire is highly self-assertive because they become easy to find.
That said, as the commander, I would like to input your commands for tonight.
Oh, okay. What do you need?
This is something that only you can do, Koyomin.
I want you to keep Shinobu occupied for the night.
You're hiding something from me, aren't you?
Come on now. What are you saying out of the blue, Shinobu?
If you're going to doubt me like that, our relationship of codependence is over.
Like hell it's over. We're in deep.
As you can see, I'm tied to your shadow firmly, like I was nailed down onto it.
Come on now.
Here you go, Shinobu. I got you a lot of your favorite donuts, you see?
I have some Golden Chocolate, okay?
This is exactly what's making me suspicious, my master.
Stop that wheedling catty voice.
You're trying to trick me so suddenly.
She's quite sharp. Like a fang.
Damn it, Gaen really is asking for the impossible.
Hiding something from Shinobu is harder than hiding something from my parents.
Because we're one now—inseverable even if you cut us apart.
Hey, come on now. See, here's some limited-time flavors from Mister Donut.
You know, you can't dodge the question by saying things like that.
Huh?
It's half Pon de Ring, and half Old Fashioned?
What is this dream of a donut?!
Wonderful!
It's 10 PM right now, so about seven more hours till sunrise.
Can I even keep going for that long?
That's right, Shinobu.
There was something I've always wanted to ask you
ever since we had that memorable spring break.
If you had feelings that lasted a year and a half, why didn't you ask me sooner?
Back during that spring break,
you sucked my blood, and I became an immortal vampire, right?
You remember, right?
You were on the verge of extermination.
"This is a very me way to die. I can't complain."
I said with a nihilistic grin, as I offered my own neck.
What happened to your memory skills?
Did you use it all up with those college entrance studies?
If my vampirization had failed back then, what would have happened?
What kind of meaning does failed vampirization have for the vampire to begin with?
I suppose the time has finally come for me to talk about that.
You have matured, my master.
Though, you're immortal, so you don't really mature!
Don't say a joke then refute it yourself.
And I'm no longer immortal, either.
I'll cut to the chase.
If you had failed back then to become my kin—my slave—
you would have become a zombie with no ability to think.
Don't you remember?
We once saw that horde of living corpses in an alternate timeline.
Oh right, there was that.
I see. I hadn't connected that with the mummies from the current case.
But now that she mentioned it, I've already seen previous cases.
If those were examples of failures, and a mound of them at that...
It means in that timeline, the "Oshino Shinobu from a different route" was reckless,
with neither objective nor motive.
Can the vampire we're dealing with now be acting recklessly as well?
Though, I don't know enough vampires to think about their behavioral tendencies.
It's just like the number of friends I had in high school.
I can count them all on one hand.
They were all somehow tied to Shinobu.
No, wait.
Wait, wait, wait, wait.
That's right. This is also definitely an oversight. No doubt about it.
On the subject of Shinobu,
I am aware of one other vampire, even if I've never met them.
Shinobu.
The vampire who turned you into a vampire...
The original source vampire for me.
Come to think of it, I've never heard much about them.
I suppose the time has finally come for me to talk about that.
The death-cheating, death-meeting, death-bringing vampire...
The one who created me, and the one who gave me a name.
Deathtopia Virtuoso Suicide-master.
It's time to talk about her.
Finally, I was enlightened—in part, anyway.
This is why Gaen ordered me to keep Shinobu occupied for tonight.
What's wrong?
Are you intimidated?
That's only natural. As you can see, it makes me tremble as well.
Though, I myself had forgotten that I used to be human
until the incidents that happened with you last year.
I haven't seen Suicide-master for close to 600 years now.
A truly reckless way of life. She is the true vampire.
Though she must be long since crumbled into dust by now.
Hey, Shinobu.
You said reckless way of life, but what kind of life was it specifically?
Let's see...
Compared to me, a foul eater who eats anything, oddity or whatever it may be,
she was a gourmet vampire.
Once she decided the menu,
she would not put anything else in her mouth. That's how stubborn she was.
And back in the day,
Suicide-master decided to suck my blood when I was still human.
And because of that, she almost starved to death.
So I kind of let her suck my blood out of pity.
"This is a very me way to die. I can't complain."
Nihilistically...
You're saying the same thing I did.
Like master, like servant.
Huh?
Why, after all this time, am I suddenly talking about Suicide-master?
Coming! Just one second!
Welcome—huh?
Over here, Devil Boy.
Well, well, if it isn't Ononoki.
You came at a really good time.
Now, don't be modest.
Come sit on my lap.
My lap is your booster seat.
You know, before you say disgusting stuff,
you should at least comment on the little doll girl's skit where she knocked on the door yet appeared outside the window.
Make yourself at home, Countess Ononoki.
Nobility?
Fortunately, I'm too busy at the moment to be relaxing on Devil Boy's lap.
Gaen mentioned that, too.
Ononoki's apparently working on a different case.
If so, what's the reason?
What? I need a reason to come over?
Fwip.
I had stepped out for work,
and when I finally came home, that idiot Tsukihi was in the room.
She's studying or something.
But it seems I'm unwanted here, too.
Since I really am quite busy, I'll just excuse myself so you can continue with your discussion.
Oh, that's right.
Here you go. A present.
What's this?
It's a fortune from the Shrine of the Polar Snake, where the little lost girl is the god.
"Fair Fortune." I can't really tell if this is good or bad.
What's this?
For all your talk about working, you were goofing off at the little lost girl's place?
You should've invited me, too.
It wasn't like I was playing.
Though a rookie, Mayoi is still the lost child that governs this town.
In terms of working, I have to set things straight with her, or I'll pay for it.
Ononoki.
Until Tsukihi vacates her room, you can relax and hang out here.
The booster seat and the child are heading out on a midnight cruise right now.
Oh, how embarrassing.
You've finally caught sight of my secret training.
What part of this is secret?
It was like you weren't sitting under a waterfall, but basking in the limelight.
I suppose this isn't what they mean when they say "dripping with allure."
It isn't?
Anyway, long time no see, Aplysia.
It indeed has been a while, but my name is Araragi.
Sorry, I bit my tongue.
No, you did it on purpose.
I fit my bung!
It wasn't on purpose?!
I fit my bung!
Even if she says it backwards, it wasn't on purpose?
I wanted to see you as well, Nobushi.
Nobushi? Who? You and your anagrams turned a ninja into a samurai.
My name is Shinobu.
Wait, I have to do this, too?
Sorry, I bit my tongue.
No, you did it on purpose.
I fit my bung!
It wasn't on purpose?!
Buy fig mint.
It's not on purpose even with an anagram?!
Correction: Mr. Anagra.
You're getting pulled in.
This downward spiral will never end if you keep connecting new ways to flub things.
Correcting the correction: Araragi.
I know you're wondering why I called you all the way to the mountain peak in the middle of the night.
It was to introduce you to a young girl.
Oh? It seems you have somewhat of a circumstance here.
If you were getting introduced to young girls without a proper reason, that'd make you one seriously dangerous person.
To be precise, I want to introduce Shinobu, not Araragi.
It seems you were the one who was the seriously dangerous person, Shinobu.
Don't sound so proud while hauling a young girl on your shoulders.
Don't shrug. I'll cling onto you.
So, little lost girl. There's a young girl you want to introduce me to?
Yes. Over here.
S-Suicide-master?
H-How you have changed so much?
H-Hey, Shinobu. What are you talking...
Look out! Be careful, Shinobu!
Hachikuji!
Let me say that the young girl mummy was naked to begin with.
And it wasn't a mummy to begin with, either.
What is the meaning of this? What in the world happened?
Oh, God. What exactly is going on in this town right now?
Shinobu, what kind of condition is that mummy in?
I mean, the naked young girl.
I'm astonished that Suicide-master, the one who created you and named you, was a young girl.
But that condition...
Is it similar to a zombie when you fail to become a vampire?
No. If anything, this is cryptobiosis.
Not a living corpse, but more like in critical condition.
That's why you called for us, didn't you, little lost girl?
Yes. For a guest from overseas to die abroad would be a terrible thing to wake up to as the ruler.
That's why, to learn the truth behind this,
I want Araragi to procure some medicine for this individual to recover.
Medicine? What kind?
And procure? From where?
It doesn't exist in this world.
But it does in the afterlife, as you are aware.
A-Afterlife?
And "as I'm aware"? I'm not aware of anything like that.
You should be aware of it, Araragi.
I mean, you traveled there just recently.
To Hell.
It's Blood Pond Hell.
Oh, brother. I have no choice.
Looks like I have to go there.
To my second homeland...
To Hell.
Shinobu, please do the honors.
Sure thing.
I have long waited for a chance to slay your rude self like this.
How dare you disgrace me by making me sit in a booster seat.
I-I thought you were happy about that!
What's the point of complaining about it now?
And what's with that chuckle? Why aren't you laughing like you usually do?
Revenge is a delicious soup—especially when served cold.
I totally thought our relationship was so close that soup wouldn't get cold!

Huh?
So I was supposed to fall down to Hell, but instead I ascended to Heaven by mistake?
Oh, goodness gracious me.
My day-to-day behavior hasn't gone unnoticed. Seems like those up above are paying attention.
Precisely.
You are not as evil of a human as you may think you are.
Pardon me for appearing before you in such a dreadful guise, Araragi.
B-Beautiful Princess?
Correct. There are people who call me by that name.
But please, here in Heaven, call me Princess Acerola.
