There's another murderer besides me?
"Talentless Nana"
Okay. The victim is Ryuji Ishii.
Episode 11: The Invisible Blade Part 2
Okay. The victim is Ryuji Ishii.
I examined him before Hiiragi got here.
His throat was slashed and there was a stab wound on his back as well.
So, Moguo. What were you up to last night?
Who, me?
Your room is next to the crime scene.
Didn't you hear anything?
I was with these guys last night.
Moguo was giving us a much-needed pep talk!
Pep talk?
I was giving them all an inspirational speech.
We started just after the funeral.
It lasted five hours.
We all sat on our knees the whole time.
Uh-oh... Is this the Moguo Vanity Recital I keep hearing about?
So, you were so drunk on the sound of your own voice that you didn't hear the murder next door?
Y-Yeah, sorry.
What about you guys? Did you hear anything through the wall?
Uh... well...
I was half-asleep.
I was the opposite! I was so engrossed in Moguo's inspirational speech.
Which means Ryuji was probably killed after Moguo's speech?
Hey, trio. What are your talents?
Wait a minute, you don't suspect them, do you?
It's possible the four of you are all in on it and you've made up an alibi.
You bastard!
Moguo!
When Kyoya gets a theory, you have to let him play it out until the end.
Well, if you say so, Nana.
O-Okay, I'll start.
My name is Nana Hiiragi. I think Moguo is a hottie!
Aw, shucks, you're embarrassing me.
Moguo is a hottie!
So, uh, when I activate my talent, I have to repeat the last thing I said or it won't stop.
That was definitely Hiiragi's voice.
So you can mimic our stab victim's voice too, right?
Yeah.
Okay. You're up next.
Y-You mean me?
S-Sorry. My guts have been torturing me. Probably from seeing that body.
Forget your guts. Your talent.
B-But... Give me a minute!
Hey. Are you okay?
Is someone in the restroom?
S-Sorry. That was me.
This guy can do astral travel.
Yep.
Whenever I panic, my mind slips out of my body.
So I went to the bathroom, but nothing came out since I was astral.
Nothing could come out, you know?
O-On that note! Can I go to the bathroom for reals now?
Come on, can't you give him a break? He's got IBS.
Fine. Next.
Awaken... magnetism!
Uhh...
I can turn my body into a magnet.
Oh, so you can draw two metallic objects together,
or split them apart?
That's really cool, but I haven't figured it out yet!
Which means you can theoretically control knives and such, right?
Incidentally, are you certain the murder took place last night?
Yeah.
Ryuji Ishii was at the mass funeral last night.
This morning, when his girlfriend came to walk to school with him,
he was already dead.
Isn't that right?
Fuko Sorano.
Pardon the late introduction,
I'm Fuko Sorano.
The late Ryuji Ishii and I
have been courting each other for several years.
Yeah, we knew that.
But the school just went on break.
So why did you go to pick him up?
It had become a daily ritual, so I came out of habit.
Can you show us your talent?
Well, I...
You found the body first, kid.
And you were deeply connected to him.
If you keep secrets from us, that will only make things harder.
Then let us all at least reconvene outside.
So it's a talent you can't use in here?
I do not wish to accidentally harm any of you.
I can channel the atmosphere into offensive attacks.
Okay, hit me with your best shot.
But I can't!
Even if I'm ripped to pieces, I won't die.
Yes, but...
Just do it.
Hey, let's watch from a safe distance.
V-Very well.
Then...
Brace yourself!
Onodera!
Are you all right?
I guess we can say your attack is industrial water jet tier.
But if you can concentrate so much atmospheric pressure...
Your power is ridiculous.
Look who's talking, buddy!
You were worried about accidentally hurting everyone,
yet you actually have pretty good aim there.
It is often the case that I cannot harness my powers in a stuffy room.
I require ventilation.
Ventilation, eh?
I remember the window was open.
Hey, Onodera!
I've got the higher-ups on the phone!
Hurry! I've got them on hold.
A phone call?
We're in crisis, aren't we?
I asked him to make the call so I could complain to the authorities.
You're wasting your time.
We'll get back to this later.
Understood.
Ryuji might have been killed when he tried to escape out the window.
There's still a lot of unknowns.
But drawing the truth out of Fuko is Kyoya's job.
What's wrong?
Nothing.
You looked a bit troubled this morning, too.
Why are you investigating the crime scene?
I'm looking for traces of the enemies of humanity.
You're determined, aren't you?
Something's off.
Did she find something incriminating in my room last night?
Or is she just exhausted?
Or maybe she feels ill from seeing that gruesome dead body?
Um, Nana- shan ?
Yes?
This is going to sound weird, but,
after we defeat the enemies of humanity and graduate, what do you want to do with your life?
Go to college in the city, I guess.
What about you?
When I graduate...
...I kinda want to be a doctor.
You know, my power is useless against illness or poison.
Hmm...
My dad is a doctor, so I've studied a little medicine by his side when I have time.
But I really want to go to medical school.
I fully support you.
I hope we defeat the enemies of humanity soon.
Thank you.
I'm glad I confided in you.
Maybe I'm over-thinking it.
She's probably just worried about her future with all these murders.
Oh, right.
This is just a suggestion, but would you like to move to my town after we graduate?
You want me to move to your town?
Yeah, we've got a lot of affordable apartments for students.
I just thought you could go to college from there.
Or you could just come live with me and my parents!
Are you being serious?
I'd feel a lot more secure having you nearby.
That does sound nice.
You're lucky to have such a warm, well-off family.
My mom and dad are both very nice.
I'm sure they'll welcome you with open--
I just opened up to you about my parents' death, like, last night.
Why did I let myself get emotional like that?
I was right. Michiru is acting very off.
She's suddenly bringing up the future and caring about my well-being.
If she has an ulterior motive, worst-case scenario,
she's discovered my crimes, but she's too scared to confront me about it,
so she's trying to sneakily draw the information out.
Hiiragi? It's your teacher.
Yes?
Inukai asked me to bring this by.
She says your uniform was ripped up?
