“After all, if they hadn’t been there for him, he would no longer be alive. He was returning the greatest of favours. They certainly had no idea what they had done, but that was okay. Sometimes, all you had to do was exist in order to be someone’s saviour.”

Why am I feeling so much sympathy for a murderer? 😢

“Murder isn’t the most logical way to escape a difficult situation. It only leads to a different difficult situation. Ishigami would never engage in something so clearly counterproductive. Of course, the converse is also true. That is, he’s quite capable of committing an atrocity, provided that it’s the most logical course of action.”
