Shirou's clones number 30 million

Lost in thought, my phone suddenly rang.

Shiro answered the phone, and his father's voice came through.

"Shirou, did you watch TV just now?"

"Looked."

"Did you know from the beginning that Junko Enoshima was such a dangerous woman? Get her out of here immediately, and don't let anyone know she's living in our house."

"I think it's too late to take action now."

silence.

After a long while, Shirou's father's voice came through the phone again.

"Indeed, taking action now would only be a cover-up. She may have already set a trap in our house. We must call the police immediately."

Shirou Shirawa glanced at Yuri Tenshou and said with his eyes:

See? This is the typical reaction of most people after learning about Enoshima's life and Junko's deeds.

“Dad, didn’t Nyarlathotep just say that if we’re too harsh on those ten women, she might send her own people?”

"You...you really believe that's the evil god Cthulhu?"

I think so.

"I have to go to a meeting. I'll talk to you when I get back tonight. Junko Enoshima, never mind, we'll probably have to talk about them in this meeting."

The other end of the phone went quiet, but the call wasn't disconnected.

Two seconds later, Nobuhiko Shirazawa's voice came again:

"Is that silver-haired girl on TV really Cthulhu?"

I think so.

"I see. It seems we must handle this with caution."

Chapter 609 Wait a minute! I have a hostage.

Chapter 609, Section 610: Wait a minute! I have a hostage!

"I am back!"

Around 10 p.m., Shiro returned home.

He intended to go back to his room, but the heavy atmosphere in the living room made him stop in his tracks.

"What's wrong, Dad?"

"Shirou, sit down."

Nobuhiko Shirasawa gestured for Shirou to sit down opposite him, and then began to speak:

Have you seen the news online?

"I just glanced at it; I didn't look at it closely."

Right now, everyone online is discussing the list of "evil women" that was suddenly announced on TV this afternoon, and opinions are divided.

Of course, overall, the majority of the criticism was negative.

"By the way, why is Enoshima Junko still in our house? Shouldn't she have been arrested?"

How did you know she was home?

Shirasawa Nobuhiko frowned slightly, and before Shirou could answer, he continued:

"She was indeed called over earlier and had her register her personal information at the countermeasures office, but the matter is temporarily over."

"That's it? You just let the evil woman who destroyed the world go so easily?" Shirou Shiro looked surprised.

“Didn’t you say that Nyarlathotep told us not to be too harsh on them?”

"I did say that, but generally speaking, no one would believe she's the Cthulhu god, right? Shouldn't she be... I've explained it again and again, but you still don't believe me?"

"Watch less third-rate TV dramas. No one can be negligent when it comes to national affairs. Even if there is only a one percent risk, we cannot take it."

"And then? What was the outcome for her?"

"Assign dedicated personnel to supervise, and report every move to higher authorities."

"Oh...that's more like it."

As they were talking, Shiro suddenly noticed that his father was staring at him, and a thought suddenly occurred to him:

"Dad, could it be me who's keeping an eye on her?"

"Ah."

Nobuhiko Shirazawa nodded slightly and said with a serious expression:

“You possess extraordinary abilities. According to Junko Enoshima, you were the one who thwarted her previous plans. Therefore, you are the most suitable candidate.”

"From now on, you will have full authority over Enoshima Junko. Write a supervision report every week, print it out, and give it to me."

"Huh...?" Shirou Shiro looked surprised.

I thought it would be the same as before, since I was the one supervising Enoshima Junko all along.

Unexpectedly, I was given the additional task of writing a report.

What is a regulatory report?

"It means exactly what it says. You have to do homework every day at school, and now you have to write a report every week. That shouldn't be too difficult, right?"

"Um... I originally planned to find a way to get her out of the house in a few days. Now it seems like I can't get her out?"

"Let her stay at home and be monitored nearby. Besides, you are only one of the supervisors. You are only able to monitor her closely because of Enoshima's request and the special relationship between the two of you."

"What special relationship? I don't know anything about it. Where are the other supervisors?"

“They are located outside our house.”

"It sounds like there are quite a lot of people."

"That's all. That's all I wanted to say today." Shirazawa Nobuhiko paused and said in a deep voice, "Shirou, Enoshima Junko is different from the nine people ranked below her. You can't be too careful with her."

Shirou Shirazawa shook his head slightly and sighed:

"In that case, why not arrest her? We shouldn't be too harsh on her, but putting her under house arrest for crimes against humanity shouldn't pose too much of a risk."

"The afternoon's rankings revealed so many murder games. Leaving aside those that haven't happened yet, Darwin's Game is still in progress. Compared to those, Enoshima Junko's matter is nothing."

Shirasawa Nobuhiko stood up, turned around, and walked towards the living room door.

"Even if the world is destroyed, is that a small matter?" Shirou Shiro asked subconsciously.

"Since it didn't happen, it's just a minor matter."

......

Knock knock...!

After knocking on the door a few times without receiving any response, Shirou Shiro pushed the door open and entered.

Inside the room, Junko Enoshima was sitting at her computer desk browsing the web, her body trembling slightly, but her face full of excitement.

"What are you doing in my room? Who let you in?"

"Because I don't have a computer in my room, I can only borrow it here," Junko Enoshima said without turning her head.

"I set up a barrier on the door with Enoshima Junko and a 'no dogs allowed' barrier. How did you get in?"

"I came in through the window."

Shirou Shiro glanced at the half-open window and thought to himself:

It seems even the windows need to be protected.

"What are you looking at?"

"Senior, everyone online is cursing me. I used to be a super popular print model, but now I've become a rat that everyone hates."

Is this something to be happy about?

"I am extremely desperate right now. Aren't you going to say a few words of comfort to me?"

"Isn't this something you've always dreamed of?"

“This kind of despair is completely different from the despair I expected,” Junko Enoshima said with a light laugh. “But it’s not so bad, is it? In the pitch-black night, only two small flames are huddled together for warmth.”

"Where are the two flames? I can't see them."

"It's in this room."

"You're not referring to me and you, are you?"

"Hehe...that's it."

Shirou Shirawa was speechless and couldn't help but say:

Why should I stick together with you for warmth? Aren't you the only one who's going to die?

“Isn’t Senpai my supervisor? That means that from now on, wherever I go, you’ll go too.” Junko Enoshima’s lips curled into a slight smile. “And that also means that Senpai will be treated as my friend.”

"Friends? That word sounds really awkward coming from you." Shirou Shiro scoffed. "You can go back to your room now."

"Are you going to rest now, senior? It's still early, isn't it? By the way, I just warmed up your bed."

"It seems the sheets and mattress need to be replaced."

"I was just kidding. You wouldn't spray disinfectant after I leave, would you?"

"Great idea! Let's do it this way."

Upon noticing that Shirosawa Shirou suddenly had a bottle of disinfectant spray in his hand, Enoshima Junko quickly said:

"Wait! Senior, I have a hostage!"

"..."

Shirou Shirazawa looked surprised and asked:

"What hostage?"
