...As earlier last week, you went through something tragic, and were not so ready to speak of it, I feel the same.
[ nothing says happy trial day like the death of your best friend when the murder was caused by your other best friend even though they were both just trying to find a way to beat the system!! haha!!! ]
For that, I apologize. Though, it would help me if you would answer my question, or, perhaps at least spread the knowledge of something spoken during the trial itself. I...am trying to abide by Susato's last wishes.
[ as kotetsu does peer a little closer, he can see that xie lian's got dark circles under his eyes - he has definitely been crying - but, his expression is as steady as ever. he's still holding susato's letter in his hand. ]
I found out very early last week - through observation, and time. She could not confirm it directly with me, but her reaction when I spoke of it was the same relief as Rochalizo's was today.
...Last week, there was a moment where, by her wishes, we were going to reveal that she killed, but the time came and went too quickly.
[ he delivers all of this information with all of the weight of the world on his shoulders, just staring at san lang. at wagahai too, settled in his lap. ]
She is by far the strongest person I have ever met, Susato - stronger than anyone really gave her credit for, either. [ his best friend. someone xie lian is honored to have known, even for just this short while. ] Including herself. Even today, the actions taken... she wanted to beat the system, and win, so she and Rochalizo would both survive. [ and that clearly was not the case.
xie lian closes his eyes. ] Please - if they ask, confirm what you can. She was compelled into it, as many others have been.

[ But he thinks about that. ]
Which part? About Susato being involved in his death...?

In Rex's, yes. What did you think?

Since any of us could be controlled.
