[Adachi stares at Kanji again momentarily in disbelief before laughing bitterly]
Wow. You really think that? You really think that I'm going to get out of prison? You kids really had and still have no idea do you?
Well, let me fill you in on a couple things about our glorious legal system. As an ex-cop, y'know. [there's a smile on his face, but it's not the same as the one he had on while talking about Pure Nanako and magical girls. It's a bitter mile from a jaded man that almost feels predatory in nature.] You know what's in my future back home?
A nice noose strung up by none other than the legal system itself.
I'm as good as death row kid. Even with the lack of evidence, my confession and the public's clamor for my death will be enough for them to go ahead and do it. It'll take years and maybe the legal system will change in that time or someone will find a loop hole on my behalf, but trust me. They'll damn well try. Just like they do with every other murderer. The Fog Murderer will die just like every other murderer before him.
That's the kind of world we live in; that's the kind of justice we serve. And you know what? At one point I was completely fine with that. I would have rather died than ever get out of prison and live in that shit world we call "home" again.
