L's negotiations [1]

L

So... explain to me why you are not Kira, or do you confess you are?

Kirito

Wait, what? Kira? I'm just a gamer, not a mass murderer!

Kirito

There must be some misunderstanding here...

L

Interesting. Your reaction suggests genuine surprise, but that could be an act.

L

Tell me, Kirito, where were you during the recent spike in mysterious deaths?

Kirito

I was in SAO, trapped like thousands of others. You can check the logs!

Kirito

How could I be Kira when I was fighting for survival in a virtual world?

L

SAO... the death game. An interesting alibi, if true.

L

But what if Kira's powers worked even in virtual reality?

Kirito

That's impossible! In SAO, we fought with swords, not supernatural powers.

Kirito

I've faced real killers in that world. I'm not one of them!

L

Your conviction is... compelling. Perhaps I've miscalculated.

L

Tell me more about these 'real killers' you faced. How do they compare to Kira?

Kirito

They were nothing like Kira. They killed for power, for fun... not some twisted sense of justice.

Kirito

I fought to protect people, L. Not to judge them.
