...Everyone has some sort of facade with which they face the world.

[Sousei keeps his eyes on Akechi carefully, arms crossed.]

I am not sure what it is you're hiding, but your pleasantness is often skin deep.

[You've made too many shithead comments, Akechi--don't think he hasn't noticed them. Picking out shithead comments is his job.]

I believe your purposes in coming to speak with me now are sincere--but it does not sit right with me to leave things as they are without clearing the air.

[If he really is to die tomorrow...]

Consider hard what it is you are trying to accomplish here, and come to a decision for yourself. That is the only advice I have to offer to you.

[He could ask Akechi not to harm people, but in truth he doesn't know exactly what lurks beneath that pleasantness, and he doesn't think that Akechi's a killer or anything--just that there are hard edges under there, and he doesn't know what Akechi means to do by pretending to be so kind, when he clearly has more to him than that. But if Akechi isn't careful, that could come to bite him later as well, if more people catch on to something being just slightly off. With mob mentality, "just slightly off" is more than enough.]
