JJL Chapter 17

Nijimura the Maid and Holly Joestar is the 17th chapter of Part VIII: Jojolion.

Summary
The chapter begins with Yasuho outside the hospital. She sees what she believes to be Josuke, and calls out to him, but she is unanswered. A pain starts up in her leg, and she remembers having experienced it during her visit to the Wall Eyes. Looking quite ill, a nearby medical assistant helps Yasuho onto a stretcher without asking and takes her into the hospital.

The assistant eventually leaves her, and Yasuho notices that she is near where Holly Kira is staying. She manages to listen in on a conversation between Holly and her doctors, and finds out that they've detected that parts of Holly's brain and vital organs are somehow missing, despite her denying having had any surgery. Because of this, her behavior seems normal, but she appears somewhat erratic and has a mania of treating people as "things".

Meanwhile, Nijimura and Josuke are still conversing in the alley. Josuke asks her to reveal his identity. Nijimura claims that the Higashikata Familyhas a secret, and that she went undercover as their maid to find out what it was. Apparently, Holly and Nijimura are the only living members of the Kira Lineage. Josuke cuts in saying that what she should be telling him is his identity, not hers. She tells him that their current location is not suitable to give him an appropriate answer, so the two move to a nearby Wall Eyes. Before the explanation, Nijimura asks him to calm down and try to not be altered with what he was going to be told. Giving an example with a lemon and a tangerine buried in the ground, Nijimura explains that objects buried near the Wall Eyes actually fuse to together and Josuke is in fact, the product of a merge between her brother(Yoshikage Kira) and "someone else". It also explains that just as his body took shape similar to his brother's, his stand has a similar power of using a bubble, although Kira's Stand (With a form identical to Killer Queen) had the ability to blow things up with said bubble, while Josuke's steals. Josuke asks who is "the other one" that was mixed with Kira and Nijimura responds that the Higashikata's have the answer.
