That way, it became clear why he chose to strike after Duanmu Ai had left. Dealing with two people was always more troublesome than one, and during that period, Duanmu Ai and Kujikawa Rise were always together, leaving him no opportunity. It wasn't until the day the contract ended and Duanmu Ai left alone that Akechi Goro found his chance.
"Hmm..."
After hearing Akechi Goro's confession, Duanmu Ai fell into thought. Although Akechi Goro had indeed answered her question, her instincts told her that he seemed to be hiding something else.
"And?"
"That's, that's everything, really... Arrghh!!"
However, before Akechi Goro could finish, Duanmu Ai brought down the hammer again, mashing Akechi Goro's left hand into a bloody pulp just like the other.
"That's still not enough, keep talking. I know you're hiding something, and if you don't start telling the truth, I'll just have to kill you... Oh, I wonder if bodies rot down here."
"Wait, wait, I'll talk, I'll talk!"
