[Mayoi nods gently, though his eyes are turned away for now.]

Yes. I- I was not there when he found out, I think they had a very private conversation about the matter, but it is public knowledge in this town that Amagi-san died.

[And then he offers a small, humorless little smile.]

I imagine he felt his pride was not worth withholding such information from the rest of us, so he announced it at one of the town meetings.

[There is a small pause, and Mayoi looks decidedly uncomfortable.]

I have also sustained injuries that ...likely should have killed me, but did not.
