After returning home from the crime scene of Sakai Koji's murder, Kiyomi Liuli cleaned up her half-eaten dinner and headed straight into the kitchen to wash the dishes, while Nanahara Takeshi went upstairs to take a shower. When he came down after his shower, Liuli had finished washing the dishes and was wiping her hands, ready to join him in reviewing the files—how did Kikuma Hisami come back, and if he was dead, how could he have killed two more people?
His fingerprints had no business being at the crime scene.
It was itching her mind, but before she could get to it, she had just sat down at the small square table when Nanahara Takeshi sniffed and immediately expressed his disapproval, "You should take a shower too."
Kiyomi Liuli refused, reaching out her small hand to touch the case file, discontented, "Stop fussing all the time, I'll shower when I get home."
