"...No.
My life has always been Eichi's. If I need to die for him, I will. If I had to kill for him, I would again.
I sacrificed everything for him. For my 'sun'.
And I would again."
"Hurt people hurt people. It's a common adage.
I did this because I was unable to part from Eichi. Because I couldn't live without him.
And so I threw away my humanity. I committed sin after sin, all for a singular purpose.
To bring him back."
"...I don't.
My actions were-are- unforgiveable. But in this timeline, I cannot take them back.
I kept attempting to tell myself that this was for someone else's sake- for Eichi.
But my actions were selfish. I did this because I couldn't accept reality."
"Umm, keep him, of course! He's not Eichi-sama, but I still love him. You should see his 'Nii-chan face'. It's so cute~
Besides, if Keito gets to go see Eichi-sama without me, I at least deserve to have someone to talk to."

Day 5: 🌺Flowers🌺
Eimugi and Tsumu is visiting Eichi in hospital 😢💖
"Hah...what a fantastical explanation...
It's almost like a fairy tale. ...It's true, I could never forget Eichi.
He will always be in my heart, for better or for worse."
"Oh, I tried to! I did the same thing to you that I did to all the others.
I dunno why it didn't work, though. Maybe your love for Eichi-sama was just that strong? Ehehe, gross, gross."
"Why...why was I the only one to remember Eichi's death...?
Why did you not erase my memories as well...? Just to make me suffer?"
"We're not sure of the exact origins of the virus. Some people called it divine punishment- the disease of the angels. OPH.
It spread incredibly quickly, causing serial murders and brain deaths all over the world.
...It's the disease Eichi died from."
"Of course, he'll be taking the knowledge of the formula for Camb10-n with him. Such an altruist, right? Put the world on a better timeline, where this pandemic never happened?
Pff. As if. His heart's just aching for Eichi-sama."
"Keito's really lucky, huh? With his ability developed this much, he can actually go back before Eichi-sama died!
Me, though...I'm stuck here."
"Duh! Who else would it be?
Anyway, pretty rude of you to use my ribbon without permission. Eichi-sama gave me that, you know! I take it with me everywhere I go...but it was dark in the maze, so I didn't notice I dropped it when I was dragging Shinobu-chan."
(Who's desperate enough to throw away their humanity for a chance at Eichi-san living again?
...That's not all. Yuzuru-san is protecting someone. And there's only one person a butler will do anything to protect.)
(What are my clues? First, the garden- the theme of 'love beyond death'.
Next, Yuzuru-san mentioned the AI and SHIFTing projects were all to bring someone back.
Judging by Saiai-san's appearance and what Wataru-san said, that dead person is Eichi-san.)
