[She's definitely level-headed, but everyone has a breaking point, a lapsus in judgment. Hers came at that time...]
I was working in a serial murder case back in my world. After a few months I met a group of people of my age that were investigating the case, and I got involved with them.
One night, our leader's cousin, a six year old girl, was kidnapped by a suspect. His actions led to her hospitalization and his arrest, and soon he was being charged with all the deaths and kidnappings that had happened. The suspect was hospitalized too.
...that girl died in the hospital. We...we all had been rather close to her, she had a certain something that made her cherished by everyone. Her father went to confront the suspect, and we stopped him before he could enter the suspect's room. The problem was that just after her father left, we found the suspect trying to escape.
[And then arguments happened, and the supposed Shadow of the suspect talked through the Midnight Channel about how he'd get away with it and continue with his 'mission'. How to explain that?]
...long story short, through certain supernatural nuances I won't explain in depth right now, we were led to believe the suspect had a complete lack of remorse, that he wouldn't get punished by anything due to lack of evidence - which was true, the case had a supernatural side only me and my friends knew about - and that after getting away with it he'd continue potentially killing people.
Some of us got very angry, and...we almost made the mistake of killing him to stop him. What makes it even worse is that, despite being guilty for almost all the kidnappings, he had never killed anyone.
[Naoto has forgotten the card game by now. She's too focused on her own story]
I'm ashamed for how I behaved. I let my anger get to my head and almost was complicit in someone's murder. It's...something I'll be always ashamed about.
