The Witch Trial Begins with the OO Buckethead Zombie

It's keeping us in suspense, deliberately and intentionally testing the patience of the prisoners who are already eager to know the outcome.

Perhaps it's waiting for something, but the countdown has already ended, so there's no need for it to wait any longer.

"..."

Clearly, nobody wanted to guess anything.

For Hannah Tono, everything is fine as long as the last name isn't hers.

For Tachibana Sherry, it might be interesting if the last name was hers.

For Noah Kinosaki, she didn't want to be herself, nor did she want to be Hiro Nikaido, nor did she want to be Hoshino Utsunomiya.

As for Emma Sakuraba and Hiro Nikaido...

All they wanted to hear was their own names.

Even if you don't hear Utsunomiya Hoshino's name, you'll still feel a little frustrated if you hear the other person's name called.

just.

the difference is.

Nikaido Hiro faced death head-on, having already made plans to rewind her life.

Emma Sakura clenched her fists, her heart pounding.

If, if I were to die today...

Will Hoshino be saddened by my death?

She probably won't get an answer to this question.

Because the warden spoke up.

Seeing that no one seemed to care about it and everyone just wanted to know the result, it had no choice but to raise its voice and say:

"Okay, it seems none of you want to guess."

"Then let's read out the answer."

"The worst, most wicked, and most wrong evil witch who is about to be executed is..."

"—Natsume Anan."

......

Chapter 130 But the iron bucket is already in our hands (4k6)

The warden called out a name that no one had expected.

On a list of suspected witches located in Hoshino, Utsunomiya, the name is almost certainly that of a witch.

Why her? How could it be her?

I don't understand, I can't figure it out, I can't comprehend it.

If she were a witch, would she have gone to such lengths to prepare everything just to execute herself?

If she isn't a witch, then on Utsunomiya Hoshino's list of suspected witches, the only one left is Tohno Hannah.

Could the witch really be Hannah?

Hoshino Utsunomiya couldn't help but think of that piece of pure white cotton cloth.

He shook his head vigorously, then thought of Hannah's deductions.

Hannah did not lose any points, but she seemed to care about losing points.

If she's a witch, then it seems to make sense, doesn't it?

Only witches know what should and shouldn't be done, and only witches care deeply about the point deduction rules they set.

But this witch is so different from 'Sherry Tachibana', isn't she?

They're not even the same personality anymore.

Is it an act, or are there really many, many witches?

Each time the story is told, these witches take turns coming in and playing, each with a different identity.

Hoshino Utsunomiya was a little confused.

Ultimately, even disregarding her status as a witch, why would it be Natsume Anan?

She never spoke a word or interacted with anyone; she appeared frail, sickly, and habitually lazy.

Even if they were to strictly follow the rules and deduct points, it would be impossible for them to do so on Natsume Anan's behalf, right?

No need to die.

The moment the warden uttered the name, Hoshino Utsunomiya realized it.

But in contrast, there was a girl who was unrelated, unfamiliar, and whom I didn't even know, and with whom I had never spoken a word.

Go die.

...Can time go back?

No way, if she wasn't a witch, then it was just an insignificant person who died.

But can I really just sit by and watch an unrelated girl be executed right before my eyes?

Accuse, take action, resist, fight against the guards, and oppose the witch.

A fleeting thought, an idea that surfaced.

Then, before you want to get moving.

Out of the corner of my eye, I caught a glimpse of Emma and Heero's profiles.

I......

If given the chance, he would naturally not want to die easily. After all, death would only cause things to rewind, and everything in the present moment would be treated as if nothing had ever happened, forcing him to start all over again.

That's why I didn't want to get too involved with them before.

The more entanglements you have, the more constraints you face, trapping and holding you back, making it difficult to continue your unrestrained journey.

"—Huh?"

The confusion subsided, and other voices gradually began to fill the courtroom.

Confused, bewildered, and disoriented.

"An'an? Why An'an?"

Shirley Tachibana was a little dumbfounded.

"Phew... Ah?" Tono Hannah finally breathed a sigh of relief, but then turned away, looking confused.

Who?

Natsume Anan?

Oh, is that the taciturn woman who said Noah Kinosaki bothered her earlier?

What's wrong with her this time?

What does this have to do with her?

"Huh? Does that mean An-an is the one who's going to date Hoshino?" Noah Shirosaki didn't seem to fully understand yet.

She probably thought that this was some kind of ceremony to decide who Hoshino Utsunomiya would officially date, and that the names the warden had just announced were the final list.

“Phew.” Emma Sakura let out a long breath.

Her worries and anxieties all vanished.

An innocent person will die.

But she and Hoshino survived, and then...

Continue dating.

The fact that this budding relationship can continue is more gratifying than anything else.

Nikaido Hiro: "..."

Hero was speechless.

She was just... bewildered.

Who? Natsume Anan?

Isn't the witch Tachibana Sherry? Her incomprehensible personality, her silly antics, and her tendency to join in the fun are very much like Tachibana Sherry. Although she's not quite a witch, witches are, after all, incomprehensible beings.

Therefore, Nikaido Hiro was not surprised by Tachibana Sherry's involvement.

If the witch is Tachibana Sherry, she should have killed Hoshino or herself.

In this way, I could choose to commit suicide to go back to the morning and seize the less than an hour to try to pull Hoshino along to repeatedly resist death.

Through repeated cycles, she will come to know Hoshino better and better, like Hoshino more and more, and be able to make Hoshino like her more and more easily.

Until the moment they escaped, all their hard work and sweat transformed into the breath of freedom, and under the sunlight, they held hands and embarked on a grand escape.

That's the right thing to do.

Why did it have to be Natsume Anan who died?

"Why?" she asked, her confusion evident. "You made this decision so easily without even reading out her charges?"

Although she had known for a long time that witches were promiscuous, she was well aware that witches would not abide by the rules she had set.

However, this is a bit too much...

"Hmm? The charge?" The owl tilted its head, its eyes showing confusion. "Shouldn't you all already know?"

"I thought you all knew."

Its words sounded as if Natsume Anan had been hiding something intolerable yet widely known from them these past few days.

but.

What can she do?
