Oikura Sodachi hates me.
老倉育に嫌われている
She hates me as though I am her mortal enemy.
それはもう親の仇のごとくにだ
同時に不思議に思うのは
What puzzles me in relation to all this
is that I don't really hate Oikura Sodachi at all.
僕は老倉育のことが決して嫌いではないということだ
Why does she hate me?
どうして彼女が僕をそこまで嫌うのか
How do I not hate her?

I've always known
that words are lies
Quickly we forget
that which is vague and unclear
by escaping into a realm of magic
which stifles truth
During a sunless summer
I derived
the answer alone
The answer was you
I found an answer
that I thought was more correct

So this is the middle school you went to, huh?
確かに言われてみれば ただならぬ風格を感じますねえ
Now that you say so, it does indeed exude a special atmosphere.
参りましょう 阿良々木先輩
Let's go, Araragi.
We were headed to the shoe lockers?
下駄箱(げたばこ)でしたっけ?
あ ああ 下駄箱だ
Right. The shoe lockers.
ふふふ 不思議な偶然ですよねえ
Life sure is strange.

You tell me all about Oikura,

So this is where you changed your shoes every day during your first year in middle school.
中学一年生の頃の阿良々木先輩は ここで毎日 靴を脱ぎ履きしていたんですねえ
感慨深いなあ
Gives you food for thought, doesn't it?
感慨深くはないだろ
No, it doesn't.
What about me changing shoes gives you food for thought?

Flashback
Naoetsu High School
My memories, though spurred to life, are still jumbled.
想起された記憶は まだ混乱のうちにあるので
ゆえに先に事情を話そう
Therefore, let me explain the situation first.
僕が僕をおとなうことになった その事情をだ
Let me explain why I went back to my middle school.
阿良々木くんって 確か彼女と 折り合い悪いんだったよね?
You don't get along with her, right?
I figured it was best if you braced yourself.
だから 教室に入る前に 心の準備をしておいたほうがいいんじゃないかと思って
No need to worry your little head.
心配には及ばないよ
We didn't get along, but that was, like, two years ago!
折り合いが悪かったと言っても もう遥か昔の二年も前の話だからな
僕は何も気にしていない
I'm completely at ease.
Really?
んん そう?
But Oikura asked me
その老倉さんに訊かれたんだけれど
今阿良々木くんはどうしている
how you're doing these days,
what you're doing these days,
今阿良々木くんは何をしている
今阿良々木くんはどんな風だって
and what you're like now.
Whether you grew taller, what you eat, when you come to school...
背は伸びたのか 普段どんなものを食べているのか 学校には何時くらいに来るのか
That's so specific!
訊き過ぎだろ
It would be weird to not answer, so I answered all the inoffensive questions.
答えないのも変だと思ったから 当たり障りのない範囲のことは答えておいたけれど
INOFFENSIVE
I didn't talk about Senjougahara because I was starting to feel uneasy.
あと なんとなく不穏(ふおん)だったから 戦場ヶ原さんのことも話していない
阿良々木くん 戦場ヶ原さんが登校してくる前に 目処(めど)はつけておいたほうがいいんじゃないかな
You should probably look into this before she gets here.
でもちょっと待ってね 阿良々木くん
But wait, Araragi.
私これから 老倉さんの復学手続きの件で 保科(ほしな)先生と相談しなくちゃいけないことがあるから
I have to speak to Mr. Hoshina about what needs to be done now that she's attending school again.
職員室に行かなくちゃいけないの
I have to go to the staff room.
阿良々木くんも一緒にくる?
Do you want to come with me?
副委員長なんだし
You're the vice class rep.
お前が戻ってくるまでに 老倉との件は解決しておくよ
I'll clear things up between me and Oikura before you get back.
There's only half a year until graduation.
卒業まであと半年
気持ちいい青春を送りたいからな
I want to have a good time until then.

You're Oikura, right?

扇ちゃん 普通に その封筒を開ければ謎は解けるよ
Just open that envelope and the mystery will be lifted, Ougi.
そうなんですか?
Really?
ふうむ どれどれ
Let's see.
There is nothing in envelope b.
Do you want to switch your selection to envelope c?
阿良々木先輩 どういう意味ですかね これ?
What does this mean, Araragi?
私には意味不明でさっぱりです
I don't understand it at all.
Is this some kind of code?
暗号か何かですかね?
It's not so much a code as a brainteaser.
暗号というよりはクイズだよ それは
見もしないで何を仰るんです?
You didn't even look at it.
"モンティ・ホール問題"っていう 有名なクイズなんだよ これは
It's a famous brainteaser called the Monty Hall problem.
モンティ・ホールとは テレビ番組の名前だ
Monty Hall was a game show host.
"Ａ" "Ｂ" "Ｃ" 三つの扉があって
There were three doors labeled A through C.
そのうちの一つに 豪華景品が隠されている
Behind one of the doors was an expensive prize.
プレイヤーは この三つの扉から 好きな扉を一つ選べる
The player could select one of the three doors.
そして選び終えたあと 番組の司会者が 残る二つの扉のうち "外れ"の扉をひとつ開けて プレイヤーに教えてくれる
When the player had selected a door, the host would open one of the remaining two doors that didn't contain the prize.
プレイヤーはその情報を得て 二回目の選択の機会を得るわけだ
With this knowledge in hand, the player was allowed to change their selection.
最初に選んだ扉を貫くか
Would they stick to their original selection?
Would they change their selection to the other remaining door?
それとも 選び直して 残り一つの扉を選ぶか
This is how it works.
簡単にまとめるとこんなクイズである
扇ちゃんなら どうする?
What would you do?
扇ちゃんはそうやって"a"の封筒を選んだけれど
You picked envelope a.
今"ｂ"の封筒が外れだという情報を告げられて
The envelope says that there is nothing in b.
選択を"ｃ"に変更するかい?
Will you change your selection to c?
Um...
それって 選び直そうが直すまいが 確率的には一緒じゃないです?
Isn't it irrelevant in terms of probability whether I change or not?
解答を後から教えられたところで "Ａ""Ｂ""Ｃ"のうちひとつが当たりなら 確率はそれぞれ三分の一でしょう
The chance that I selected the right one is one in three.
最初の選択をする前に "Ｂ"が外れだと教えられていたならともかく
I'm assuming that I'm not told b is empty before I choose, of course.
そうだね だけどこれは "解答を選び直す"が正解なんだ
That part is true, but switching is still better.
"Ａ"から"Ｃ"へと 選択を変更するのが
You have to change from a to c.
では "c"の封筒を開けてみましょう
Let us open c, then.
おやおや これは地図ですかね?
Is this a map of some description?
地図に 何やら印がつけられているようですよ?
There seems to be a mark on it.
さて 当然 次はこの地図で示されている場所に行くんですよね
I believe the next logical step is visiting the location marked here.

老倉先輩が 二年前の学級会の件で 阿良々木先輩を逆恨みしているという線
You suspect that Oikura unfairly hates you because of the class meeting two years ago.
これはたぶん ないでしょうね
I think you're wrong.
なぜかって?
Why?
簡単です
Easy.
老倉先輩が学校に来たからです
Because she came to school.
どういう意味だい?
What do you mean?
羽川先輩が そもそも仰っていたじゃないですか
Hanekawa said it.
鉄条先生が産休でお休みを取って それとまるで入れ替わるように老倉先輩は学校にやってきたって
Ms. Tetsujou went on maternity leave, and almost as though they switched places, Oikura returned to school.
つまりですね
Basically,
老倉先輩は鉄条先生が直江津高校にいなくなったから 登校できるようになったのだと思うのですよ
I believe Oikura had to wait for her to disappear from Naoetsu High School before she could to go to school again.
要するにあいつには あのときの犯人が誰なのか わかっていたってことか
You mean she knew who the culprit was all this time?
ならば学級会のことは 彼女の性格が ああなってしまったこととの関連はあっても 僕を嫌う理由には直結していないのだ
That means the class meeting is connected to her change of personality, but not directly to her hatred for me.
It makes sense.
そういうことになる
そもそも僕を嫌いというのであれば 一年三組の教室で 初めて会ったその日から あいつは僕のことが嫌いだったのだから
As far as her hatred for me is concerned, she hated me from the very moment we met in class 1-3.
自力で沸騰したと思っている水が嫌い ですか
"I hate the water that thinks it boils without assistance," huh?
つまり老倉先輩は 己のルーツを知らない 己のルーツを忘却している阿良々木先輩の生き方がさぞかし気に入らないというわけですか
Basically, Oikura strongly dislikes that you don't know your roots, that you've forgotten them.
But isn't that odd in and of itself?
でも 突き詰めていくと それもまた変な話です
昔のことを忘れてる奴なんて ざらじゃあないですか
To live means to forget.
私だって 小中学校の頃の自分なんて ほとんど忘却の彼方(かなた)ですよ

of me.
I hear your laughter near me
You were supposed to be there forever
I breathed onto the classroom window and wrote your name
only to panic and wipe it with my sleeve
I heard your voice from the hallway
and went home in hurry to hide my feelings

to talk to you normally
I can hear your laughter a ways away
You were supposed to be next to me forever
You knew how I felt
even when I said nothing
Now I know how important you were to me,
but we will never see each other again
