but there are a number of lines which I really find confusing, Its not just in this chapter, I'm pretty sure
that I've read several lines like this in past volumes..
Here are the lines in question :
Okay, my issue is with the last part. I think it should be seperated from this paragraph and be inside quotations. As you see, the last sentence is directed to Asahina, it was a question meant for Asahina ( considering the answer she gives), I've read this line again and again and I really think that its part of a dialouge between Asahina and Kyon. If it was part of kyon's narration then there should be at least "I told her" or "I asked her" at the end of the sentence, which will show that he really asked asahina something.These people might have the means to defend themselves, but I didn't. It looks like Asahina-san also didn't, as she was hiding behind me. This was just the right time to want to bring out a futuristic item, though. Don't you have a ray gun or something?
"Carrying weapons is prohibited. It's dangerous."
Okay, maybe this really isn't a biggie, because all of us know that, he was askin' Asahina, I just wanted to point it out cause, It really bugged me.
