This conversation was starting to feel a uncomfortably like an interrogation of some sort. But Satomi had been the one to open the door, hadn't she? Or maybe she just wasn't used to being questioned like this. It wasn't as if she'd had a lot of lengthy conversations with people and Shirokawa-senpai had been in charge of the Disciplinary Committee last year. Perhaps old habits died hard?

"So if you were to interpret this piece as is, what message would you take from it?"

Both her expression and her voice remained calm, revealing nothing of her increasing anxiety.
