> The room is quiet... > There's no sign of anyone around. Is Adachi here?
Souji: !
> The entrance disappeared...
Adachi: This is a problem.
Souji: [turns around, Adachi appears behind him and points gun at his head] !!
Adachi: Why didn't you bring the rest of 'em? You're such a party pooper. You couldn't even bring your wannabe detective friend?
Souji: >"I came by myself." >"I need to talk to you."
Adachi: To... what, change my mind? Don't kid yourself. [lowers gun and disappears]
Souji: !? [Adachi reappears sitting on bed] !
Adachi: Your whole gang should be here. You know, work together, beat the bad guy. Friendship, effort, victory... You guys love that stuff.
Souji: >"Will you reconsider?" >"I believed in you."
Adachi: Oh, really...? Just what was it about me that made you want to believe in me so bad? [stands up and steps toward him] Well? [shakes head] I don't have anything to say to YOU. If crimes could be solved by appealing to morality, we wouldn't need the police! The person you believed in was a version of me who only existed in your head. You decided on your own to believe in me, and that decision betrayed you. Why complain about it to me?
Souji: >"Is that what you'll tell Dojima?" >"You're a sad human being."
Adachi: [shakes head] You say the dumbest shit. It's people like you who come to me alone, naively thinking you can "turn me around," that piss me off the most. [points gun at Souji] What do you think will happen if I shoot you?
Souji: >"You'd commit one more crime." >"You can't shoot me."
Adachi: [shakes head] Wow, very optimistic! Is your brain rotting or something? [fires just past Souji's head]
> The bullet brushed your ear... > You smell the acrid scent of burning gunsmoke...
Adachi: [steps closer to him, points gun again] Do you get it now? We're done talking. I won't miss next time.
> It didn't seem like a threat... > But you don't think you can talk to Adachi anymore. > You feel that your relationship with Adachi has changed dramatically...
[Jester link changes to Hunger link]
Adachi: Want me to let you choose? You can go back to your friends and bring them all here... ...Or you can die now. [lowers gun and shakes head] I guess regular revenge is boring, though. Let me see where your detective work takes you. It's always good for a laugh. You're so persistent! Look at all that youthful vigor you've got. Come on, "leader," bring all your friends back here.

Jester > Hunger Arcana Change (12/07, Wednesday Evening)
> It's a quiet night...
[Souji walks over to his TV]
