A transcript of part 13 of juicedup14 playthrough/translation of Kirigiri Sou, which you can watch here.

This transcript was not worked by me, but worked by zanthosus and @drmedicsgamesurgery. Thanks to them for working on this part.

We return to the entrance hall.



As if being chased by the ringing of the grandfather clock, we stand in front of the entrance door. I take initiative and grab the doorknob. Although the knob turns, the door doesn’t open.

“What is this?”

I hit the door and turn it violently a few times. I try a lot of things, but it just won’t open.

I give up and head to the window, but the bars on the outside don’t let me escape. From what I can see, all the windows have bars attached to them.

“We’re locked in.”

I say in astonishment.

Just like me, Kirigiri grips the door knob and turns it. It looks like she got tired and turned away from the door.

“How did it come to this? Just what is happening?”

“Calm down.”

“I can’t be calm in this type of situation.”

If I think about it, ever since I met Kirigiri, everything’s been eerie. Even if it’s not her fault, then she’s still a big part of the problem. No, wait, maybe she’s the one who’s making people come here. Could that really be it?

“Looks like you have some kind of misunderstanding. Though now’s not the time to falter considering our situation. We haven’t even searched the second floor, nor have we met with any of the residents of this mansion.”

“But, it could be a capybara.”

“If so, I would prefer it.”

“You would prefer it?”

“I’ve seen a lot of capybaras up until now. I’ve been face to face with one a couple of times. I know just how they think, and I know how to deal with them as well. They’re actually a lot easier to deal with than my classmates.”

“What are you talking about? What kind of person are you?”

“I’d like to keep that a secret, but I wouldn’t want you to get into too much of a panic, so I’ll tell you.”

She fixes her gloves in her hand and pulls at the wrist part moving left and right and says,

“Actually, I’ll keep it a secret.”

She says that, turns her back to me, and heads up to the second floor.

“Wait, you’re going by yourself?”

“I’m going to search the second floor. You can go ahead and rest there.”

Kirigiri’s skirt flutters as she heads up to the second floor.

A: Here’s my chance to attack! I go down on the floor and look up to the stairs.

B: I wouldn’t do something so brash. I gentlemanly and nonchalantly lie on the floor.

juicedup14 chooses A, of course.

The chance has arrived! I lay on the floor and look up, but all I can see is darkness. I can’t see anything, but only the part I was looking up at had the problem of being dark. I see, so that’s the only conclusion I can come to with that kind of structure.

By the way… is it really fine to just let her go by herself? I have a reason to oppose her, don’t I? Wait, she has a reason to keep going into the mansion, but I don’t really have one myself. Actually, if it were up to me, I’d want to get out of her as fast as possible.

But even so… when I see her go up the stairs, I think that I need to go up as well. I could just be that her bluntness wore off on me.

Either way, I need to face this mansion, otherwise I wouldn’t be able to leave early. For me, this isn’t just someone else’s problem. I have to do this. I chase after Kirigiri and go up the stairs.

Creaking stairs. Thirteen of them. They’re made quite well. As if going up to my own execution grounds, I go up the stairs.



When I turn the corner, I see a door right by me open with someone going in there. I couldn’t really see them, but from the gap in the door, I could see that they had long hair. I go in after her.

I try to chase after her and stand in front of the door and grab the doorknob. I feel something on my back.

“Wha?”

I jump up in surprise. I turn around and Kirigiri is standing there.

“Wha? Eh?”

“Couldn’t you wait like a good boy and stay still over there?”

“Didn’t you just go in there?”

“No, I just came out of a different room.”

“Well then, the one who went in here is…”

“The one from this mansion.”

We finally caught them.

“I didn’t see them very well, but it was a long haired girl.”

“You mustn’t let your guard down if it was a girl. You’d best get behind me.”

Kirigiri pushes me away and stands in front of the door, then opens it.

It was like a hotel room with a bed, closet, shower room, and bathroom.



When you flip the switch, there’s a bedside lamp that turns on. But we couldn’t see the girl anywhere.

It looks like the bathroom has no one in there.

“Did someone really come in here?”

Kirigiri asks suspiciously.

“No doubt about it.”

“If that’s the case…”

Kirigiri goes to the closet and touches a hook.

A board opens like a door into a room.

“Let’s go inside!”

In there was a smaller white room. In the middle was a bed. Almost like a hospital. It gave a faint smell of sterilization.

Beside the bed, the mysterious girl that wandered into the room was there. She looks just like Kirigiri. Big surprise that there’s someone in here.

“Who are you?”

She asks.

“Um… good evening. Uh, my car croaked and exploded, and then…”

I got flustered when I was asked to explain all of a sudden. Right, I need to leave this to Kirigiri.

“I brought you all the way here so that you could save her.”

I turn around, but Kirigiri was not there.

“Huh?”

“Um, you’re alone, you know.”

I look all around the room. I can’t find Kirigiri. I noticed a person now sleeping in the middle of the bed. I looked closely. Kirigiri was right there.

“Huh!? What is this?”

“Could it be that you were called here by my big sister and got lost in this mansion?”

“Big sister?”

“Yeah. My name is Kyouka. My big sister, Kyouko isn’t related by blood to me, but this and that happened and we sorta became like siblings.”

“I was talking with her just now though.”

“I think that was probably an illusion. Big sister has been sleeping here for many years now.”

“Illusion? That’s crazy.”

“They happen from time to time. People who get invited to this mansion by someone who looks just like big sister get lost in this mansion.”

“They don’t look like her, it was her.”

I point to Kirigiri who was on the bed.

“Did she ever say her name?”

“Uh, no doubt about it.”

“I see… There’s been many people like you who have been led astray in this mansion, but none have come into this room. You’re the first.”

“She led me to this door.”

“If so, then you must be the person of truth.”

“Person of truth?”

“Big sister has been active as a detective for quite some time, but ever since having to face lies and fabrications for so long, she’s been wanting to avert her eyes from reality. She plays 15 hours a day on an online game and makes all her money from reselling on online markets and managing an online store. She only leaves her room in order to use the bathroom.”

“That’s enough!…”

“From then, she said she’s grown tired of living and laid on the bed and never woke up since.”

“Is she only sleeping?”

“I don’t know if you can call it sleeping, but she’s averting her eyes from reality. The only thing that can awaken her is only this world’s truth. No matter what lies or deception this world has, there is an assured truth that is called hope. You need to show her that.”

“But… how am I supposed to do that? She’s still sleeping?”

“You should know by now, shouldn’t you? It’s a kiss. You’re the prince who’s supposed to bring her back awake with a kiss.”

“You’re being a bit overbearing right now…”

“Do you not want to? Even though you could kiss someone this beautiful? Even though you could kiss someone who is kissing easily? Even though you could do whatever you want with them?”

“I don’t know why you’re getting so excited about it… It’s not like I’m the only person of truth.”

“You won’t know unless you try it! Hurry up and do what you want! Huff, huff…”

What’s with this kid? Is she into that kind of thing?

“Okay, I get it. But if she doesn’t wake up, don’t go complaining to me.”

“I won’t complain, but I might file a complaint to the police.”

“Hey! Well then I won’t do it!”

“I’m kidding, sorry. I thought that might persuade you a bit more.”

All of a sudden, Kyouka has a video camera out of nowhere.

“Don’t record this!”

“Don’t worry, I won’t put it up on the net.”

“Will she really wake up from this?”

I get closer to the bed. Kirigiri is breathing quietly with her eyes closed. She really is beautiful. When I think that, I get more nervous. I may not have a chance like this again. So I might actually be lucky…”

I wipe away the hair that’s on her cheek, and then I softly with her lips…

A: I nonchalantly mutter the words “truth” from my mouth.

B: I did a kiss that would be talked about for ages to come.

C: I gave her a childlike peck kiss.

juicedup14 chooses A

I nonchalantly mutter the words “truth” from my mouth. All of a sudden, her eyes open and she looks right at me.

“Are you okay?”

She looks at me and asks.

“Breathe slowly.”

Huh? I was looking at her just before but… our positions are upside down now. When I notice that I’m laying on the ground and she’s right beside me, kneeling. This isn’t in a room or on top of a bed. I’m on top of the wet grass. I’m outside.

“Oh good… the CPR worked.”

Kirigiri had both of her hands on my chest. It seems like she was doing CPR on me.

“Wha? What happened?”

“You were in an accident, and you got thrown out of your car. You stopped breathing for a moment.”

“Oh… is that what happened…”

So what I saw was just a dream?

But I still feel the sensation of lips on mine. That real softness. That couldn’t have been a dream. Wait… CPR? My breathing stopped. Artificial respiration! That’s it! If she was trying to save my life, then she was giving me respiration. I see, I can remember that feeling. I really am lucky.

“Oh, can you breathe now?”

I hear a voice.

When I turn my face, I see the gate of the mansion. I see someone coming back from the gate.

“An ambulance will be here any minute.”

“How good. Don’t worry, his name is Shikiba-san. He’s someone who’s studying plants in this mansion.”

Wait… could it be…

“Good thing you’re safe. It’s all because I gave you respiration. Hahaha….”

You’re kidding… I don’t want this reality!

I fell unconscious one more time.

“Are you okay?”

My shoulders are being shaken, and I open my eyes. I see that Kirigiri is in the seat next to me looking over to me. And that’s when the after-school bell rings.

Ah, this better be reality I hope… My hand is gripping Kirigiri as we leave the classroom.

“Now, let’s go solve the mystery of today’s case.”
