The Coming-of-Age Ceremony Bloodbath – There’s No Such Thing as A Statute of Limitations, Right?〜

Author: Nekoyashiki Kagami Kaze

Prologue 〜Indelible Wounds〜

Today is the Coming-of-Age Ceremony.

My mother looked very happy to see me dressed in my best and told me how beautiful I looked.

But soon after that, she looked sad when she saw my sister’s picture on the altar.

 

“… Mother… it’s okay! I’m sure Hanaka is in heaven wearing a long-sleeved kimono and having her father celebrate with her!”

 

Mitsui Hanaka is the twin sister of Mitsui Hanami.

Five years ago, she committed suicide because of bullying.

The school covered up the bullying, and the bullies are still alive today.

But their lives end today.

I’m going to attend the Coming-of-Age Ceremony and kill them.

 

“… At that time… I didn’t even realize she was being bullied… I’m really sorry…”

 

Mom says to me with tears in her eyes.

Mom didn’t do anything wrong…

Even though she was busy as a single mother, she raised us twins well…

I will never forgive the trash who killed Hanaka and hurt my mother.

I told my mom over and over again, “It’s not your fault.”

 

 

Chapter 1 〜Middle School Years〜

【Bullying】

 

“Those twins, aren’t they kind of creepy?”

 

The bullying started with that one comment from a female classmate.

 

“I know! They’re sisters, and they always get along so well! It’s super creepy though.”

“And they’re both so gloomy! It makes the class atmosphere worse!”

 

I think it started around the second semester of the second year of Middle School.

The girls would spread badmouthing words throughout the class, and eventually the bullying spread to other classes as well.

At first, it was just the main culprits speaking ill of us. But then the shitty classmates who took advantage of them multiplied one by one, and a lot of trash, including those in other classes, despised us.

The bullying escalated further, and some even stole my and Hanaka’s personal belongings.

 

“Who would want to touch your stuff?”

 

Aren’t they crazy to steal our things? I thought to myself, and looked down at it, thinking that there was a lot of contradiction.

But I didn’t notice.

That they were bullying Hanaka, who was in a different class from me, even worse…

 

 

When we moved up to the third year of Middle school, Hanaka and I were separated in class, and since I was in the illustration club, we didn’t have much time to spend together.

Taking advantage of my absence, they escalated their bullying of Hanaka.

At that time, I was being bullied as well, but I had gotten used to the petty name-calling and stealing, and I looked down on the bullies with an exasperated look on my face.

When I met Hanaka again at home, I couldn’t notice her because she was acting the same as always.

Without my knowledge, they were blackmailing Hanaka, using violence, and bullying her to an extreme degree.

Unlike me, Hanaka is a pure and gentle girl.

Because of my strong-willed nature, they took advantage of my absence, and they bullied her to the extreme.

I found out:

Winter break for the third year of Middle school.

That was the day Hanaka committed suicide.

 

I found her dead in the bath. Beside her body was a suicide note.

 

 

【Proof】

 

After Hanaka’s death, I showed the school and the school board Hanaka’s suicide note, which was proof of bullying, and desperately asked them to impose sanctions on the bullies.

The suicide note clearly stated what was done to Hanaka and who bullied her, so it should have been enough evidence.

However, the dirty adults covered it up.

 

“A piece of paper like that can be forged in any way.”

“There’s no way such good kids would do something like that. Hanaka-san was probably worried about her future, right?”

 

And the incompetent teachers sided with the bullies.

And because the school board’s authority figure was a relative of one of the bullies, the fact that Hanaka’s suicide was the result of bullying was easily erased.

After Hanaka’s suicide, I transferred schools out of season.

The mere thought of breathing the same air as the people who killed Hanaka made me sick to my stomach, and my mother didn’t want her daughter to go to school like that anymore.

Then she cried and apologized to me, saying she was sorry for not realizing that we were being bullied.

I didn’t talk to her about the bullying because I didn’t want to worry her, who had raised us twins single-handedly since our father died of an illness when we were five years old.

I’m sure Hanaka felt the same way.

But now, I regret that if I had talked to my mother about it, Hanaka would not have died and she would not have hurt mother.

 

【Vengeance】

 

If only I had looked at Hanaka more closely…

If only I had helped Hanaka…

If only I had told mother to transfer Hanaka to a different school…

I’m sorry Hanaka…

I’m sorry mother…

I was filled with grief and despair.

But over time, despair turned into a desire for revenge.

 

 

 

 

I’ll kill them.

 

 

 

 

 

If I spread Hanaka’s suicide note on the Internet, their lives would be over immediately.

But I would not be satisfied with that.

Hanaka is dead.

Then they should die too.

They should be hurt more than what was done to Hanaka.

With something more painful than was done to Hanaka.

With something crueler than was done to Hanaka.

Far worse than was done to Hanaka.

Leave them with more misery than was done to Hanaka.

They should die, their minds and bodies torn to shreds, having tasted hell a billion times more than Hanaka.

I spent my senior year of high school researching the specifics of the murder and other methods without my mother’s knowledge, and by the time of the Coming-of-Age Ceremony in my second year of university, I had everything ready.

 

Chapter 2 ~Execution of Revenge~

【Coming-of-Age Ceremony】

 

I arrived at the venue of the Coming-of-Age Ceremony.

They’ve probably forgotten about us twins by now, but if I saw them, I would probably feel nauseous just from that.

I took my seat, thinking about it.

 

“Hey, hey, isn’t that Mitsui?”

“Oh, it’s true. The sister was still alive.”

 

The repulsive women, who were my former classmates, were laughing and looking at me from a little distance away.

They don’t even know what’s about to happen.

They are the cronies of the main perpetrator of the bullying.

And the first targets of my revenge.

The ceremony began, and we listened to a long series of insignificant stories from some influential people.

Halfway through the ceremony, I faintly heard one of the cronies from earlier ask the other one to go to the toilet, and as they were leaving, I sent a message to my “collaborator”.

The truth was that I wanted to kill all the bullies with my own hands, but since I was attending the Coming-of-Age Ceremony in a kimono, and in the middle of the ceremony, I might fail if I made a wrong move.

The “collaborator” is the first person who came to offer incense after Hanaka’s death. I trust him.

 

 

Please wait. Hanaka.

Two of your enemies will die soon.

 

 

 

【Start of Slaughter ~ Shirasaki Ryuto ~】

 

“Hey, check this out. I got a bunch of anonymous messages…”

 

The ugly woman who went into the ladies’ room showed the other ugly woman the pictures I had sent in bulk.

 

“What… is this?! A suicide note…?! Isn’t this kinda bad?”

“Really, what’s going on… it’s disgusting…”

 

How can you say that? How do you kill a person and have no memory of it, let alone guilt? They’re really trash. They deserve to die.

I watch the women while pretending to adjust my blonde double-tailed hair, which I’m not used to, in front of the mirror.

My name is Shirosaki Ryuto.

I went to the same cram school as Mitsui Hanaka, although we went to different schools.

It was a private tutoring school, but Mitsui and I often took classes in the same group, which is how we became friends, and at that time, Mitsui consulted me about the bullying at school.

She said that she couldn’t make her family worry, so she could only tell me, a friend from the cram school, and she had been suffering for a long time…

I couldn’t do anything but comfort her…

No, there was nothing I could do then, so I’m going to do something now.

With my hands… no, with Mitsui Hanaka’s hands, I will kill these sows.

Blonde twin-tailed wig, black hoodie, black T-shirt, black pants, black shoes, and black gloves.

I put on some girlish makeup on my face that I learned how to do on the Internet, and I look like a girl from across the room.

I don’t look that masculine to begin with.

It’s a complex for me, but I never thought it would come in handy here…

I pulled my hood down low and spoke to the women in my best female voice.

 

“Hey… have you forgotten about me?

Kusatsu Rieka, Kenmochi Aina.”

 

The two looked at me with surprised faces as a stranger suddenly called them by their full names.

 

“Huh?! Who are you…?!”

“… Wait, this can’t be, right? It’s bad, Rieka! She…”

 

Kusatsu, to whom I sent a large number of pictures, was combative, but Kenmochi, perhaps sensing this, looked frightened.

 

“Why… why are you alive… Mitsui Hanaka!!”

 

Even though the face changes as an adult, and it is hidden by a hood, I can’t believe she would mistake someone she’s never met before…and a man, for the girl she used to stalk and bully.

But still, she looks like a total dunce.

Hearing Kenmochi’s line, Kusatsu also remembered and showed a frightened expression.

 

“Mi… Mitsui… Hanaka…? It’s a lie, but she’s…”

“I’m dead. It’s your fault. So

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Now it’s my turn ♪.”

 

I pointed my concealed replica pistol at them.

As expected, the two idiots and incompetents looked scared.

 

“Go into the last stall.”

 

I ordered them.

After watching them move as ordered, I hung a “Do Not Use” sign on the door of the women’s restroom.

 

 

 

 

Now, it’s time for the torture.

 

 

“Hey, I’m sure…”

 

When I said a word, the two of them shrank in surprise.

 

“Kusatsu-san, you once shoved my face into the toilet, didn’t you?”

 

As I said that, I pulled Kenmochi towards me and stuck a knife to her neck.

Hiii… Kenmochi let out a small scream.

 

“I was in a lot of pain back then, you know? That’s why

Kusatsu-san should suffer the same experience.”

 

I said, glaring straight into Kusatsu’s eyes.

 

“Huh… What are you talking about? Why would I do such a thing?!”

 

Sure enough, the noisy pig woman defied me.

 

“Heh,… Then, Kenmochi-san, I’m about to kill, is that okay?”

“Huh?!”

 

Kenmochi involuntarily raises her voice when she is told that she will be killed.

Kusatsu is confused by the unexpected development.

Kusatsu looks at the toilet bowl and Kenmochi alternately,

 

“… d… do it… Hey! Do it?! Hurry! I don’t want to die! Hey, do it! Shove it in! Face in the toilet! Come on, do it! Hey, do it! Oh! Do it now! … Hurry up and shove it in, huh?!”

 

Kenmochi, who was half-crying and looking terrible, ordered Kusatsu.

However, Kusatsu did not comply.

 

“Huh?! Who are you talking to! I mean, it’s all thanks to me that you made it into the popular click, right? Do it? Who the hell do you think you are? Get down on your knees and beg for help, ugly!”

 

Kusatsu grabbed Kenmochi by the chest and yelled as vigorously as Kenmochi had just done.

However, Kenmochi kicked Kusatsu away, and Kusatsu slammed her back against the wall.

 

“Listen up, just do it! It’s your fault, isn’t it? You did that to Mitsui!! If you hadn’t made Mitsui drink water from the toilet, I wouldn’t have had to go through all this! Don’t hang on your click from Middle School forever, you damn pig!”

 

Crying and angry, Kenmochi went crazy.

 

“Pfft…”

 

I almost laughed out loud, but I stifled it.

This is what friendships between bullies are like after all. The only thing that matters when it comes down to it is saving your own life.

 

“Hey, Kusatsu-san, hurry up! Stick your face into the toilet bowl and drink all the water there………… suffer a billion times more than I did.”

 

I glared down at Kusatsu.

 

“Do it, you trash…!!”

 

Kenmochi cries out.

I push her further.

 

“It can’t be helped. If you don’t do it within five seconds, I’ll kill. Now.”

“5”

“Do iiiiit!!”

“4”

“You biiiitch”

“3”

“Nooooooooo!!”

“2”

“I don’t want to die I don’t want to die I don’t want to die”

“1”

“Kyaaaaaaaaaaah!!!!!!!”

 

 

Gus

 

 

 

I took the knife that was perfectly held to Kenmochi’s neck.

I thrust it into Kusatsu’s face, not Kenmochi’s.

Then, I stabbed every possible part of Kusatsu’s body as she screamed, and finally cut her neck to cut through her vein.

 

“… i, it hurts…………… I, wan… I… live…… hii!!”

 

Kenmochi, who I had pushed down on the spot to kill Kusatsu, got up and let out a small scream at the sight of Kusatsu’s wretched corpse. Kenmochi’s lower body is soaked with her urine.

 

“Ahaha! Kusatsu-san really is an idiot, isn’t she? I only said ‘kill’ before counting, so there was a chance that ‘I’ could be killed, right? If she had just been mature enough to drink up the toilet water, she wouldn’t have ended up as such a miserable carcass …

 

 

Right! Kenmochi-san…”

I stick the knife to Kenmochi’s neck again.

A poor woman who can only leak dirty sobs.

 

“Look at Kusatsu-san’s face, it’s going to shock everyone who comes to the toilet. Kenmochi-san, push that face into the toilet bowl so no one can see it.”

 

I ordered Kenmochi.

The grotesque corpse of Kusatsu with its face and body mutilated.

Kenmochi couldn’t even look at the corpse, she looked down and cried.

I grabbed her head and forcibly raised her face.

 

“Kenmochi-san, you made me do it, didn’t you? ‘Getting rid of trash’.

You put dead bugs and mice on my desk and said, “Oh gross! Go ahead and throw them out. With your bare hands.” You told me, right? As long as you make others do it, it’s natural that you can do it yourself, right? … Here, do it. Throw this trash in the toilet…… with your bare hands.”

“N… No…”

“5, 4… “

“Nooo!”

 

When I started counting, Kenmochi immediately stood up, grabbed Kusatsu’s corpse with both hands, and plunged Kusatsu’s face as deep into the toilet bowl as she could.

I looked at Kenmochi with cold eyes as she defiled her friend’s corpse in order to save herself.

After following my orders, Kenmochi stood up, breathing heavily.

I hugged her from behind.

 

“Hi…!!”

 

Kenmochi stiffened.

I put the knife in her right hand and grabbed her hand from above. Then I whispered in her ear.

 

“See you later, Kenmochi-san.”

 

I moved Kenmochi’s right hand and sliced her neck with the knife I had her hold.

 

Shhh………

Thud

 

 

 

 

Kusatsu Rieka and Kenmochi Aina were completely lifeless.

Kusatsu is wearing a bloodied kimono and has her face covered in stab wounds plunged in the toilet bowl.

Kenmochi is lying on the ground with her eyes wide open, her lower body wet with a foul liquid. In her right hand is a knife with her fingerprints clearly on it.

I put the forged “Kenmochi’s suicide note” beside Kenmochi and left the women’s restroom.

… After I finished killing them, I checked that no one was in the men’s room next door, went in, and changed into the cleaning staff clothes I had hidden in the cleaning cart I had left behind. I then hid the blood-stained set of women’s clothes in the depths of the cleaning cart. Then I pushed the cart and left the restroom.

After my first revenge, I deleted the large number of pictures I sent to Kusatsu in order to destroy the evidence, and then promptly left work.

… When I arrived home, I immediately washed the bloody clothes, put them in garbage bags, and camouflaged them with a lot of trash.

I learned that the hall used for that Coming-of-Age Ceremony was an old building with lax security, so I started working part-time a few months ago for a preliminary inspection. (Even though it was in the countryside, I thought they should have set up a better security system. On the other hand, it was a big help.)

There were no surveillance cameras near that toilet, and of course no one knew that I went back and forth between the men’s and women’s toilets. (Well, we were lucky that no outsiders came in.)

 

[The Goldfish poop(Hanger-ons) has been cleaned]

 

I sent a message to Hanami.

 

 

Chapter 3 〜Atonement of the Past〜

【Alumni Reunion 〜Yukimura Meika〜】

 

After the Coming-of-Age Ceremony, we go to our class reunion.

There, I kill three boys who were my former classmates.

My name is Yukimura Meika.

I have a sin that can never be forgiven.

Five years ago, since the day my classmate Mitsui Hanaka died…

 

 

ーーWhen I was in the first year of Middle School, Hanaka-san approached me because I didn’t have any friends in my class.

Hanaka-san was a gentle girl who was kind to everyone.

As I talked with Hanaka-san and her twin sister Hanami-san, my circle of friends gradually grew.

However, in the second year of Middle School, the twins and I ended up in different classes.

Thanks to Hanaka-san and her sister, I was able to have a peaceful school life like I had in my first year. I didn’t even know that Hanaka-san and her sister were being bullied…

I only found out about the bullying in the third year when I saw my classmates Kusatsu and Kenmochi bullying Hanaka-san.

Hanaka-san saved me… I have to help… but… if I helped Hanaka-san, now I…

 

 

 

In the end, I didn’t help Hanaka-san.

Hanaka-san who spoke to me

Hanaka-san who was kind to me

Hanaka-san who expanded my circle of friends

 

I let her die…

 

 

When I was in my first year of High School, I went to Hanaka-san’s house to apologize.

At first, they turned me away, saying, ‘Even if you’re not the one who bullied her, I don’t want to let any student from that school in, so please leave.’ It’s obvious, isn’t it? I repaid Hanaka-san’s kindness with spite.

I went to apologize again and again, and one day, I was allowed to offer incense.

That’s when her twin sister, Hanami-san, called me to her room.

Just as I was preparing myself to be hit when her mother wasn’t looking, Hanami-san started talking about her revenge.

I vowed revenge at that moment. ーー

 

 

I will kill them,

Sakakigaoka Souta.

Kijima Rikuto.

Takiyama Shosuke.

They were the so-called popular click boys, and together with Kusatsu and other popular click girls, they bullied Hanaka-san.

The cockroach men are casually enjoying the class reunion.

But that’s over now, right?

Now you are going to die in agony.

Meals are served standing up, buffet style.

Sakakigaoka once put the plate of food he was in the middle of eating on the table.

While everyone was engrossed in eating and chatting, I took the opportunity to poison Sakakigaoka’s half-eaten plate.

Then, I poisoned Kijima’s drink in the same way.

I also poisoned Takiyama’s chopsticks.

There are no surveillance cameras at this venue.

Besides, everyone has known since Middle School that when I eat something, I add my own special spices.

I put poison in the same container as the spice container, pretended to eat it myself, and poisoned their food.

Finally, I threw the bottle that originally contained the poison into the bag of our former teacher, Konohara Sayako.

When everything was done, I went to the women’s restroom and handed the poison container disguised as a spice container and the gloves I originally wore to a blonde twintail who was waiting there. I was then given a similar pair of gloves and put them on.

The gloves were fashion gloves that coordinated with my Kimono. If I were wearing normal clothes, I might have looked suspicious, but thanks to my Kimono, I was well camouflaged.

When I returned to the venue, all hell had broken loose.

When I asked my classmates what had happened, they told me that Sakakigaoka, Kishima, and Takiyama suddenly began to suffer, vomited blood, and died.

Later, poisonous substances were found in the bag of the former homeroom teacher Konohara, and the purchase history of the poison was found on Konohara’s smartphone. Furthermore, there was also a post on his SNS accounts saying that he wanted to kill Sakakigaoka and his friends. was arrested for killing Sakakigaoka and others.

Hanaka-san… we did it…

Five of the trash who bullied Hanaka-san are now dead.

The shitty teacher who covered up the bullying has also become a criminal!

Then, of course, the reunion was canceled and I went home.

I then sent a message to Hanami.

 

[Teacher poisoned three problem children from class… how scary.]

 

If Hanami-san orders me to take revenge again, I will, of course, accept.

Because that’s the only atonement I can make…

 

 

【The One in the Shadows 〜Shirasaki Ryuto〜】

 

I was a little nervous because she seems so obtuse, but it looks like she did well.

It was already on the internet,

 

[Former homeroom teacher kills students at Coming-Of-Age Ceremony reunion, probably out of resentment over class disruption at the time?]

 

What news.

Now that is what I call karmic retribution.

The three targets were idiots who tormented their homeroom teacher with violence and verbal abuse when they were in Middle School, so that teacher has enough motive, and after all, I hacked into the teacher’s smartphone and planted poison purchase history and SNS backdrops, so the teacher will never be cleared of suspicion.

Because he protects bullies.

Serves him right.

I also found news about the shitty pig women I slaughtered.

The article reads:

 

[Kenmochi, who was cheated on by her boyfriend, committed suicide after killing Kusatsu. A suicide note was found beside Kenmochi’s body, suggesting a premeditated suicide.]

 

So it was written.

I was the one who forged Kenmochi’s suicide note, but I would have had to think of another motive if Kusatsu hadn’t messed with Kenmochi’s boyfriend in the first place. It saved me the trouble of thinking up the motives!

A target with a lot of openings makes it easier for me to carry out my revenge.

 

“And then… on to the main culprit…”

 

Hanami-san… do it well…

 

 

Chapter 4〜The End of the Slaughter〜

【The Trap 〜Mitsui Hanami〜】

 

Teacher Poisons Student at Class Reunion…

The hotel where the class reunion was held… my part-time job quickly became a big fuss.

But I’ve already clocked out, so I’m going home.

As I prepare to leave, I deliberately pass by the noisy venue on my way home.

(As soon as the Coming-of-Age Ceremony was over, I went home, changed my clothes, and came to this part-time job. I hadn’t originally planned to go to the class reunion, and if I had, I might have been a suspect because I was bullied by those three boys. How fortunate that Yukimura Meika was in on the revenge plot. )

When I passed by the venue,

I made eye contact with the last two targets.

No, I dared to make eye contact.

They approached me.

The root of the evil that started the bullying.

The women who deserve to die the most.

 

“Can I have a word with you?”

 

The woman who approached me… Maejima Kia said to me in a small voice.

 

“What is it, dear guest? I’ve already clocked out, shall I call the staff?”

“Don’t play dumb. You’re Mitsui, aren’t you?”

 

Even though I was off from work, I was willing to serve the guest, but the other woman… Atonaka Reira glared at me.

She probably intuited that I was the one who killed the three boys who bullied Hanaka and me.

But doesn’t that mean that you are aware of the fact that you were the bullies?

 

“I’m sorry, I can’t give out any personal information. Well then.”

 

With that said, I walked away.

The provocation was a great success.

From the moment I left the hotel, I walked a little faster and started running, and sure enough, those two followed me.

(The surveillance camera was hacked by Shirasaki Ryuto.)

I run enough that those two don’t completely lose sight of me… no, I lure them.

I ran along a deserted road, and then into one of the many warehouses near the ocean.

 

“You’re such an idiot to go into the building, you! You can’t escape now!”

 

Saying that, Maejima closed the door to the warehouse.

Without even knowing that it was an act of “digging one’s own grave”…

 

“Come out! It’s no use hiding!”

 

After saying that, Atonaka and Maejima started looking for me.

When they got to a place further away from the entrance than me, I stopped hiding.

 

“Where are you looking? I’m right here.”

 

I said in a mocking tone.

 

“You… how can you look so unconcerned…”

 

Atonaka said with teary eyes.

 

“What?”

“Three of your classmates died, right? You were in the same class in your second year, right? You don’t think anything of it?!”

 

Aaah! That dirty crying face…

But you don’t have the right to put your wrongdoings on the shelf and cry, do you?

 

“Huh, I don’t think anything of it, right? Such trash deserves to die. I was relieved that the Sensei took revenge.”

“Don’t call Souta trash!”

 

She jumped at me with a dirty scream.

I used a kitchen knife I had hidden and slashed her on the cheek.

 

“N… Noooooooooooo!!”

 

Holding her cheek with her hand, Atonaka squirms on the spot.

Maejima sees this and sinks to the floor.

 

“The next time you try to do something to me, it will be like this, right?”

 

I looked down on Atonaka, whose face was covered in blood, and at Maejima, who was stiffening, and threatened them.

 

 

 

Now, it’s time for the execution…

 

 

【Execution】

 

“Kusatsu Rieka. Sakakigaoka Souta. Kijima Rikuto. Takiyama Shosuke. Maejima Kia. Atonaka Reira…. Do you know what they all have in common?”

 

While threatening them with a kitchen knife, I asked.

 

“Th… the popular kids…”

“Huh?”

“The popular kids… nuh… b, bullies…”

“Huh?”

“Bullies…”

“Who did you bully?”

“Oh… you… Mitsui Hanaka…”

“Who did you kill?”

“K… kill… I didn’t kill, anyone…”

 

You didn’t kill…?

Don’t make me laugh…

I kicked her in the face and stabbed her Achilles tendon with the kitchen knife.

 

Gusagusag

 

“Gyaaaaaaaaah!!”

“Hanaka killed herself because of you guys, right? How is that different from killing her? Huh?”

 

Her legs are full of dirty holes after being stabbed repeatedly.

Behind her, Atonaka is crying in a dirty voice.

 

“N, no!”

 

Maejima tried to escape when she saw an opening. But I quickly jumped on her and stabbed her Achilles tendon just like I did Atonaka.

Now neither of them can move.

 

“You tried to leave Atonaka behind and run away on your own, didn’t you?… Puh… Ahahahaha! It’s hilarious, really! As expected, it’s only trash that bullies people!”

 

Saying that, I dangerously stabbed both of Maejima’s hands and arms.

Maejima was writhing on the spot while letting out a dirty scream.

When I looked behind her, I saw that Atonaka was leaking.

Dirty…

With that in mind, I pushed Atonaka down and held the kitchen knife to her neck.

 

“No, don’t… it was a long time ago, right? Besides, bullying can’t be helped because it was in Middle School… I’ll apologize… I apologize, so forgive me…”

 

Rip- Rip – Rip- Rip- Rip

 

I ripped Atonaka’s annoying mouth open with the kitchen knife.

The dirty woman was making an eerie moan.

A woman who is ugly in mind and body…

 

“How can I forgive you? What you did to me is an unforgivable sin… I can’t forgive what you did to Hanaka, can I? You… all of you… will suffer even worse than Hanaka, and you have no choice but to die in disgrace!”

 

Gus

 

Shoulder.

 

Gus

 

Arm.

 

Gus

 

Wrist.

 

Gus

 

Belly.

 

Gusagusagsagsagss

 

I stabbed Atonaka all over her body.

She lets out a dirty scream and soon loses consciousness.

I thrust the knife as hard as I could into the heart of this dirty, ugly, defiled woman.

 

Gucha

“Gh… guuuuuh-huh.”

 

When I turned around, I saw Maejima vomiting.

It’s time for the main event…

After being stabbed through the heart, Atonaka was already dead.

I stripped off all the clothes from her filthy corpse.

 

“Hey…”

“Huh…!?”

“You… you said you were going to ‘cook’ for Hanaka, and then you soiled her with food scraps and toilet water, didn’t you?”

 

I ask Maejima as I cut up Hanaka’s corpse. Atonaka’s abdomen was cracked open, exposing her ribs and internal organs.

 

“Eh…”

“Fufufufu… finally done…”

 

Laughing in a voice so eerie that even I thought it was abnormal, I ripped out Atonaka’s heart.

 

“Here, I’ll feed you your favorite ‘dish’. Open your mouth…”

 

I take the bloody heart towards Maejima.

Even if she tries to escape, her limbs are shredded and she can’t move properly.

I grabbed Maejima’s miserable hair and shoved the heart into her mouth.

 

“UuuuuuuHHH”

“Here, why don’t you eat? It’s payback for what you did to Hanaka, right?”

 

I put pressure into my hands so as not to give in to Maejima’s attempt to spit it out.

Atonaka’s heart was crushed into pieces.

 

“Goku… ngh… uuuuuuh…”

 

Maejima, who had finally swallowed part of it, swallowed again.

 

“Geho… uuuuh… ah, you…”

 

Glaring at me, Maejima said.

 

“Why are you doing this now… Reira and Souta were dating… they were planning to get married on Valentine’s Day next month… even me… I was having a fulfilling university life and was happy every day. I was supposed to be happy for a long time to come! And yet…”

 

Dogat

 

Annoyed, I kicked Maejima hard in the face.

Then, I grabbed the chest of the fallen Maejima and held the kitchen knife to the nape of her neck.

 

“Hanaka should have been able to celebrate her Coming-of-Age Ceremony. Even Hanaka should have had a fulfilling school life. Even Hanaka should have been able to smile. Even Hanaka…

 

She should have been happy…!”

“… But, Hanaka Mitsui killed herself, right?… For whatever reason, she wasn’t the one who killed herself! That’s right… we weren’t the ones who killed her! It’s not our fault…”

 

Shhh

 

I slashed Maejima’s cheek with a kitchen knife while she was spouting incoherent and cryptic nonsense.

How stubborn is she? What’s going on with my nerves?

 

“What are you doiiiiiiiing!”

 

I can’t believe I’m still upset at this stage…

Really, bullies remain trash no matter how old they get.

 

“Does it hurt? It hurts, right? But Hanaka suffered hundreds of millions of times more than that, right? Because of you guys…!”

 

Thud

 

I push Maejima away and walk toward Atonaka again.

I drag the corpse of Atonaka and bring it to Maejima’s side.

 

“Hiii…”

 

Maejima screamed again when she saw the corpse with its internal organs exposed.

I grabbed Maejima’s head and shoved her face into the exposed abdomen.

 

Guchagucha guchagucha

 

Holding Maejima down as she tried to resist, I pushed her head deep into the body.

 

“You made Kusatsu stick Hanaka’s head in the toilet, right? Then you can’t complain if something like this happens to you, right?”

 

Maejima struggled to look up.

Her body was thrashing about, what a pain.

While holding down Maejima’s head with one hand, I grabbed the knife with the other and plunged it into her back.

 

 

Pulling the limp Maejima away from the corpse of Atonaka, I tried to kill her.

 

“No, stop… Stop it… my fault… it was my fault… I apologize… I’m sorry… forgive me………

 

It’s past the statute of limitations…”

 

 

Statute of limitations…?

A trashy woman who only thinks about protecting herself even after going this far.

A waste who doesn’t deserve to live, unable to sincerely apologize and repent to Hanaka.

 

“Aha… ahahaha… ahahahahahaha!

There’s a limit to how stupid and scummy you can be…

There is no such thing as a statute of limitations, is there?

No matter how much you apologize, Hanaka won’t come back. No matter how much you apologize, Hanaka is no longer alive. No matter how much you say, ‘It’s in the past’, I’ll never be able to see Hanaka again. That’s right…!”

 

 

I stabbed Maejima in the face as she stared at me with frightened eyes, and finally thrust a kitchen knife into her brain and heart.

 

 

 

 

 

 

After that,

After setting fire to the warehouse as planned, I slipped out through a hidden back door got on the back of Shirasaki Ryuto’s motorcycle that was waiting there, and fled.

 

I don’t remember much beyond that.

 

 

 

Afterwards

 

“Well then, I’m off to my part-time job.”

Two months have passed since then.

After my revenge, I am living a normal life.

 

[Kusatsu and Kenmochi committed suicide over a love affair.

Sakakigaoka, Kijima, and Takiyama were poisoned by their former homeroom teacher, and their former homeroom teacher, Konohara, was arrested.

Then, Maejima and Atonaka were trapped in a warehouse where they were meeting a man they had met through a dating service, and burned to death. The police arrested the man.]

 

The public never suspected us of anything, not even in the slightest.

Thanks to the cooperation of Shirasaki Ryuto and Yukimura Meika, I was able to get my revenge.

After I die, I cannot go to the same place as Hanaka.

The destination after I die is the bottom of hell.

But that’s okay.

Even if my revenge wasn’t for Hanaka, even if it was just for my own satisfaction, I have no regrets about what I did.

Do I take revenge and go to hell?

Or do nothing and let Hanaka’s enemies live happily?

Then the answer is obvious.

 

 

There is no Statute of Limitations for the crime of bullying.
