"Huh? Mirelle...? Is that the name of the person who was working here? Check this out."
Jamie flashed the camera over the metal plate.
"Project D-15? What's this supposed to mean? Do you all think it's some name for the thing that they were building? Hehe, or maybe it could be one of the experiments?"
Jamie threw out the words as a joke, but I didn't laugh at all. Staring at the metal plate, a quiet creeping dread began to settle inside my chest.
There was no doubt about it.
This was the Mirelle that I knew.
'...She was an experiment. Yes, I should already have been aware.'
This was information I was already aware of.
'But it says Project D-15? What does that imply? Does it imply that there are 15 more of them? No, it could also be more.'
I knew that Mirelle was of great importance to the cult.
