Count me in for "This is way too simple and easy", too, and thank you for the reassurance that it wasn't just me. I was so afraid this meant the series had gotten an abrupt axe.
For my money, this a reinforces my theory that Clover is her brother using the family power of time travel. It's right up a time-traveler's alley to have turned Rei against Uichi all that long ago.
(And if Clover can't time travel, the author has a WHOLE lot of explaining/setup to do for why Clover started picking on Uichi all those years ago and calling him a murderer.)
So its the hacker girl confirmed then (at the very least, she is involved)? Obviously its not Rei. Some edgy highschooler is not pulling that shit the culprit's been pulling since the start. Uchi hiding his meeting as well so maybe he is setting up something to out the actual person.
Regardless, he did go to the meeting alone which is mega retarded specially after learning what MC went through to keep him alive. He is still lacking even the basic as fuck survival instincts / self preservation.
Rei had someone in his ear to give uchi the letter...the hacker girl got something in this plot. Wouldn't it be some shit if they did all this to have him off himself again...
Thanks for the chapter.
The herring is so red it might as well be burning through my screen.
My moneys on the hacker girl even more so now than it ever was.
