Short-Haired Mikoto: But I was here first!

Was the problem with me, or with this world?

Mikoto felt like the whole world had gone wrong.

"So what exactly are you doing?" Keisatsu Kanketsu asked curiously.

"Well, it's not exactly something we need to hide... uh, probably."

—Wait a second.

Dolly was Mikoto's clone, so when they had previously wanted to add more observers, Shokuhou Misaki had wondered whether she could bring Dolly along too.

But...

If Dolly saw another version of herself, wouldn't she develop some kind of mistaken understanding too?

Shokuhou fell silent.

This was bad.

[They understood each other with just one look]
