Nasty piece of Filth

• Fat guy didn't acknowledge the girl.
• Apparently, the phone is broken.
• Final panel makes it seem like the Fat guy was the cause for Chiaki's disappearance.

It's still up in the air if the girl is a hallucination but the author is pulling all the stops to obscure it.

I came to say that. I wonder if he killed her, given the stuff in his apartment, and is hallucinating. Or maybe she's a ghost.

 

[Rikortez]

The hallucination theory seems plausible.

 

[undeed]

the redone, retouch, and finished details in this tankobon release makes the horror much more thrilling compared to the pre-release doujin(?)
I love it

 

[sambenmaggie]

The girl definitely doesn't exist/is a ghost. I'm guessing he saw her die and that pushed him over the edge.

 

[Nick86]

Yep, seems the fat guy noticed the phone only, she can be indeed a ghost since nobody is searching for her.

That, or he was only a witness then was forced to be an accomplice by not telling. Guilt made him "forget" and hallucinate about her being alive just to function again.

 

[MerlinD]

its might be going there

 

[justsomeguywhoreadsmanga]

This manga definitely isn’t good for my blood pressure but it’s so nice though. Thanks for the translation!

 

[Naovhi]

thanks for the chapter

 

[jrocker]

I'm thinking this proves he probably killed her when she visited him on time since it seems he may have been losing his mind. We also get that the father was "ignoring her" but if she's a ghost or his guilt then clearly nobody else sees her which is why the phone doing anything while it sits with a black screen by itself is seen as broken.

I'm thinking that he is going to attack that man and show his craziness since he will assume she is absolutely kidnapped

 

[TwisterJR]

Until I read the comments I realized that the girl being a hallucination is actually a nice theory

 

[Oklam]

"this is the grimm reaper? [...] He wear a suit"
hmmmm.... tilting on the ghost side there

 

[anon763]

The top of this car is soothing. It's like I've been on it before.

That combined with the diary sketch last chapter seems so blatant I almost hope it's a red herring.

 

[Remy88Lebeau]

Man this is pretty good writing to have the audience still guessing and not knowing one way or the other of if she's real and abused or figment of his imagination\a ghost

 

[zawarudo]

there's also a hint in chiaki's dialogue. she says she feels like she's been on top of the car's hood before.

Spoiler

combined with the sketch from last chapter's diary, it's also possible that he actually ran her over.

 

[Monovar]

I can only think that the girl is the phone somehow.

 

[Kaarme]

Even if the girl is just a figment of the MC's crazed mind at this point, the sload was still messing with his phone, apparently, so he's no good guy.
