[ While Kido's heard of Ryuji, she doesn't connect the dots because she is imagining a literal monkey swinging around the trees in the forest by its tail. The image of Akira with a monkey... It's a little hard to imagine. ]

I know Kurusu... I've only heard a little from him about where he'd come from before, but it sounded like a horrible place. Is that "Wonderland" where the three of you came from? He said something about being trapped in a building and made to kill one another?

[ Akira had no qualms leaving a place like that; he was glad for it and Kido was glad for him too. ]
