Chemistry Research Facility Murder Case — ACT 5 : SUSPECTS

In the MPD'S Headquarters...

I don't seem to see Dia and Shingo here, where are they? Inspector Asahina asks expectantly.

Ma'am, they've left the moment they finished talking to Commissioner Hasegawa. One of the officers said hesitantly.

Is that so? Inspector Asahina said coldly.

"I should have really expected this. If it's Commissioner Hasegawa that talk to them before they left earlier, that means they've sneak in again in the scene of the crime." Inspector Asahina taught to herself.

Prepare me a car, we're going to discipline some naughty children. Inspector Asahina said authoritatively.

"Dia, you're my niece but...if I said no cases then no cases." Inspector Asahina taught to herself.

Right away, Ma'am! I'll get the car ready once again. The officer said confidently.

Yes, please do. Inspector Asahina said coldly.

In the Chemistry Research Facility...

So, what's the connection of "Genesis" in this case? Shingo asks curiously.

Obviously, it links to the suspect...But, in what sense? Dia said coldly.

In what sense, huh? It's too simple to answer. Izuru said confidently.

Then provide us the answer. Dia said demanding.

Well, I want to confirm one thing first. Izuru said coldly Call the Forensic Psychologist from earlier here, I have some questioning to do with her. Izuru said authoritatively.

Oh, Shion? Shingo said enthusiastically Alright, I'll find her and bring her here! Shingo said confidently.

Hey, wait! Don't leave me with this maniac! Dia said coldly.

Shinji left the crime scene to find Shion.

Seems like we will be left together here for some time, huh? Izuru said sarcastically.

Even if I hate it...Yes, we will. Dia said sarcastically, letting out a sigh.

So, tell me something! How long have You and Shingo known each other? Izuru asks enthusiastically.

Well, we're childhood friends...we also entered the MPD Police Academy together. Dia said coldly.

When did the both of you graduated? Izuru asks enthusiastically.

Just a year ago. Dia said coldly.

Wow, you guys really are rookies! Izuru said sarcastically.

What does that mean?! Dia said irritatingly Well, how about you? How did you become this good when we are clearly just in the same age, all three of us. Dia asks expectantly.

Well, it's either natural gift or because of the fact that I am a former student of Tantei Gakuen. Izuru said coldly.

Tantei Gakuen?! You mean, that TANTEI GAKUEN?! Dia said, clearly surprised.

Yes, exactly! So, shut it... Someone might hear you and you might blow my cover. Izuru said sarcastically.

Oh, right...I forgot about that aspect. Dia said hesitantly.

"I didn't expect this guy to be a former student in the Gakuen Tantei, that just only explains how good he is at this! And what does he mean about "Natural Gift" is he into this kinds of things since childhood or what?" Dia taught to herself.

So, why did you suddenly stop being a detective? Why did you decide to just become a gigolo and stay indoors all this time? Dia asks curiously.

That's a long story...Izuru said hesitantly.

Well, we have all the time in the world right now...Shingo still doesn't return. So, we're currently free. Dia said coldly Don't worry, I won't tell anyone if that's what you wanted. Dia said sincerely Is this perhaps one fo the reasons why you want your involvement to be a secret? Dia asks expectantly.

That's right, that's all I can say to you right now. Izuru said coldly Some time and someday, I'll tell you once I have finally deem the two of you as trustworthy individuals. Izuru said coldly.

Trustworthy individuals? Dia repeats curiously.

Shingo finally returns back to them with Shion.

Seems like they are here, we don't have all the time in the world anymore. Izuru said sarcastically.

Come on. Dia said coldly.

We're back, I am sorry if I took so long! Shingo said sincerely.

Just in time, it's alright! Izuru said enthusiastically.

Alright, why did you called me here...Mr Izu? Shion asks curiously.

Well, as part of my internship duty! I got assigned by Officer Dia to be the one to asks the questions to you regarding the victim! Izuru said enthusiastically.

Izuru winks at Dia behind him indicating her to play along.

Dia just lets out a sigh of defeat.

Yes, Izu Moro here have some questions about the victim...from me specifically. Dia said coldly.

"I am glad that Dia is willing to play along now!" Shingo taught to himself.

Alright, in that case, please don't be shy to ask away! Shion said enthusiastically.

First question, have you conducted a background check for the victim? Izuru asks curiously.

Yes, we have! Do you want to hear the specifics, Mr Izu? Shion said curiously.

Yes, please! Share your findings with us. Izuru said enthusiastically.

The victim is living alone right now, he havs an ex wife and a child but they both moved out in the victim's custody. The victim also have a new girlfriend right now... they're currently seven months as of this moment! Shion said confidently.

Anything else, how about an older brother? Izuru asks curiously.

Yes, he have an older brother! He is also a chemist like the victim. Shion said confidently.

I see, thank you for the information! Izuru said enthusiastically Officer Asahina and Officer Shingo will definitely delighted, right? Izuru said sarcastically.

Yes, that's right! Shingo said enthusiastically.

We're thankful for your help, Ms. Shion. Dia said calmly.

Is that all you want to ask me? Shion asks curiously.

That's all for now, thank you. Dia said calmly.

We'll just find you again if we need something else, Ms. Shion! Shingo said enthusiastically.

In that case, I'll take my leave. Shion said coldly.

Stay safe and take care! Izuru said enthusiastically.

Shion left the crime scene.

So, why specifically an older brother? Dia asks curiously.

You catch on quickly, Ms. Squirrel. Izuru said sarcastically.

Say that again, I dare you. Dia said coldly.

Hey, that's already a compliment! Izuru said sarcastically.

And a backhanded worthless one. Dia said coldly.

Come on now, calm down! Shingo said warily.

Alright, I'll answer your question! Izuru said enthusiastically We already have narrowed down the suspect list into two and we have our prime suspect already too. Izuru said coldly.

What?! They've both said in unison.
