"Sato, what's wrong?"
Onodera asked with a surprised look.
Running is out of the question.
If he ran, his lies would be exposed completely.
Attacking first seemed risky, but it allowed him to take control.
Worth the gamble.
Onodera, although slippery and cowardly most of the time, always managed to unleash extraordinary energy when his life was at stake.
This was his obsession with survival.
Of course, it could also be called pure fear of death.
Whatever the case, Onodera's current performance was flawless.
At least that's how Onodera thought.
Besides, Sato didn't notice anything.
Yet, Sato's suspicions hadn't lessened even slightly.
He didn't believe such a coincidence that he'd meet Jason when secretly meeting Hanakaiin Itsuki here.
So…
Onodera was lying to him?
With such thoughts, Sato quickly snapped out of his shock upon hearing Jason's name.
He strode toward Onodera.
This was a probe.
Watching Onodera's surprised expression, Sato frowned.
Perfect timing.
