Okita: How...
Okita: How do you know that---?
K: It's the reason that Sainome asked for me.

Page 2
Sainome found out about something, and was confined by the criminal.
What a potentially troublesome opponent, to have set a trap inside a memory...
...Was there anyone at the scene of the murder?

Page 3
Okita: People from our division--- If they find out anything, I would know.
K: ...I see.
Okita: ...
K: ...Now then, what can YOU do?
K: It's because you have some special powers that you are still here, right?
Okita: Ah...

Page 4
Okita: I...I---
Okita: Can get inside people's consciousness by touching them...
K: Hm...
Okita: ...But it's limited to people who are sleeping or unconscious.
K: That's perfect.
K: Are there any others in your division who can do it?
Okita: There isn't anyone with the same power.
K: ...

Page 5
K: Can retain your consciousness over here while inside the other world?
Okita: That's impossible.
K: ...How about taking me along?
Okita: It's possible if you touch me directly,
Okita: But instead of doing the hunting, I may be---
K: I know.
K: And that's why you didn't go in solo---
Okita: ...Yeah.

Page 6
K: Have you ever been trapped?
Okita: No...not so far.
K: I see...
K: ...Is there anything that you treasure?
K: Anything is fine, even a watch or a scrap of paper.
Okita: Huh...?
K: Rather than memories or intangible things,
K: It's better to have a physical object here.

Page 7
K: You must have something.
K: A gift from your girlfriend, a photo, or---
Okita: Ah...no.
Both: ...
K: Alright, let's see it---
Okita: S...stop---!!
Stop it!!

Page 8
K: ...So it's Sainome.
Okita: Th...that's not it!!
Okita: It's, um---!!
K: This will be enough.

Page 9
Okita: I'm telling you, it's---
Okita: !?
K: ...It will point to the path back to the real world...
K: ...Here.
K: It's a charm that's used for bringing you back.
Okita: Huh...?

Page 10
K: If you are stuck, then concentrate your thoughts on it.
K: It will pull you back to this world.
Okita: S...something like that---
K: It's a simple type of magic.
...Believe in it.
Okita: Magic...?
K: Ok, let's begin.
Okita: B...but---

Page 11
K: While we're talking like this,
Sainome could be in danger you know.
Okita: ...And the chance of success---?
K: Who knows.
K: It depends on you.
K: Let's go.

Page 12
K: ...Found you.
Sayaka: ---!!

Page 13
Sayaka: Kuroe...
I'm glad---
K: Of course, since you asked for me.
Okita: ...
K: What happened?
Sayaka: Well---
Man: ...They are your friends?

Page 14
K: ...So he's the cause.
K: I see...it's a familiar face.
Man: ...
Sayaka: Huh...?
Sayaka: What do you---

Page 15
Man: ...
Man: You can see?
K: And I suspected it was an inside job.

Page 16
It's all a deception.

Page 17
Sayaka: ...?
Kuroe...what are you---?
K: Look.
K: It's him.

Page 18
Okita: Chief...
Shinjou...!?
Shinjou: ...Interesting. To have broken through this illusion...
K: It's over. Stop any useless struggle.
shinjou: Useless struggle?
Shinjou: This memory is mine.
Shinjou: So don't think you can get out of here and reveal the truth.

Page 19
K: ...Open the door.
Shinjou: It's no use...you can't escape this prison.
Okita: N...no good, it won't open!!
Shinjou: Of course not.
K: Okita!!
K: He's just something that's fastened to a memory!!
K: Your powers are stronger!!
Believe!!

Page 20
K: Think of the charm!!
Shinjou: It's useless---
Okita: ...!!
Okita: I...
I'm back...?

Page 21
K: Where is he!?
Okita: Huh...!?
Okita: Ah...!!
Okita: ...That room!!

Page 22
K: Okita!!
K: What happened---!?
Okita: ---!?
Shinjou: ...How unexpected...

To think that you actually escaped...
