Kiriya: This is divine punishment.
[And the metaphor becomes reality. Remember the skull? How it was sorta that shape?]

Page 129:
Kiriya: My son Tooru and Murata Yasufumi were in the same medical college and mountaineering club.
They really seemed to hit it off, and even on vacations they went out to mountains all over Japan, and he almost never came home...
And in their graduating year of college they went mountaineering in the winter on Mount Tanigawa.
突然 あいつは徹を滝沢ドーム下のナイフリッジから突き落としたんだ
Suddenly, he pushed Tooru off the knife ridge below the Takizawa Dome...!!!
Without any proof, the police couldn't make a case against him.
And for those two that were such good friends, even as a parent I couldn't understand it at all...
Mountains are places behind closed doors.

Kunieda: S-Stay awaaaaay!
S-STOP, STOP OLD MAAAAAAN!!!!
Niimi: Old man...!?
Kunieda: P-Please listen to me, old man Kiriya!
It was mostly their fault...
Toori and Eriko were in it together!!!
Those two were having a great time ridiculing me behind my back!
Even though you thought we were good friends...!!!
I was an idiot for falling in love with that slut!!!
[Ok, so I think I got it. Tooru is a boy and was his friend and he, Kunieda, who is really Murata, had fallen in love with this girl Eriko, and he found out she was cheating on him with his friend Tooru, so he pushed them off a mountain ridge. Then this guy came after him and he didn't want to admit it because of the guilt. Do I have it?]

Kunieda: I can't believe anyone anymoooore!!!

Komatsu: NUoOOOOoooooooh!
Kiriya: But than man paid for his crimes.

Page 140-141:
Kiriya: He brought it on himself. No matter how he tried to live fighting against his own fate,
surely the mountain could never allow that----...
