Chapter 40 - The floating boy

A mysterious person dubbed 'the floating boy' was now filling up news stories. 

Nobody could confirm it was Lev- but that's certainly the way things were headed. Tokyo police had to make a statement on the situation at least, confirming the involvement of Oikawa, (y/n) and Lev, and hinting that Reo, Chahiko and Kinamo may have also been involved in some way. People had questions.

The police were obviously careful with what information they did and didn't release to the public- for now, the case of Reo and Chahiko was being kept somewhat private for the sake of Takeru. They confirmed that Kinamos' case had been reopened and only really went public with (y/n) and Lev's situations.

There was some debate over naming Oikawa and showing his pictures to the general public- but if he posed a threat then they needed to find him as quickly as possible- and it's obvious that he already knew the police were after him; he'd started to run already.

They kept most of it under wraps though- not specifying why they wanted to find Oikawa. 

Although they did try to keep it quiet- there were leaks of information- such as 'the floating boy'. Anyone who decided to keep up with the case all had the same presumption- Lev was dead. Honestly, Aizawa had come to the same conclusion too.  

Takeru's account of events was probably the most influential piece of information in this whole case, and the reason some- albeit a very small amount- of people took interest.

Not to mention- now all of this information had come to light, it was easier for Aizawa to acquire the evidence he wanted.

Which is how he ended up sitting in his office at 3AM, reviewing months of footage from the school cameras showing Oikawa spending an alarming amount of time with (y/n) with an alarming amount of intimacy. 

"I think they were dating..." he confessed to his colleague. 

"Who?"

"Oikawa and (y/n). I've cut down all the footage for evidence. They were kissing and cuddling and he gave her a ride home almost every night... he was probably the 'friend' she was staying with so often. Now- I've got a good view on his car and the last day Lev was seen he was walking towards Oikawa's car."

"Well..." the other officer pondered as he realised that they might be close to finding proof that Oikawa had done something to Lev, "we figured out where Oikawa was staying. He wasn't living with his parents like he said- but the block of flats he lived in mysteriously burnt down and killed everyone inside"

"...."

"By the looks of it- we're dealing with one sick bastard- but that's not it. We found a tooth in his house"
