A/N: I have one thing to say....

Ahahaha

"I mean really, I don't know how you guys managed to get anything done without me." Kira said, spinning around in an office chair.

"We manage fine Kira." Detective Naomasa said with a frown. "Hey aren't you supposed to be cleaning out the coffee pots?"

"Done." Kira shrugged.

"In two minutes?" The detective raised his eyebrows.

"Five, and yes. Don't underestimate my power." Kira yawned. "I want something cool to happen." She whined.

"You're not allowed in combat until Aizawa gives back your license." Naomosa reminded her.

"Yeah but there can be other cool things." Kira stopped spinning. "Like a lead in an investigation... Or a Homicide!"

"We don't want that to happen Kira." The detective rubbed his eyes. "Homicides are bad."

"That's fair." Kira admitted, the phone rang and Naomosa sighed and picked it up.

"Musutafu PD, this is detective Naomasa." He answered, then his brows bent together. "And you think it's a homicide?" He asked.

Kira sat up.

"I'm more of a criminal investigator, but we have a Homicide detective on staff-" He was apparently cut off. "Me specifically? Really? That's odd... I'll be right over."
He hung up and looked at Kira. Pulling on his coat. And waving her over.

"Well you got your wish."

"Hello Naomosa. How's the wife?"

Kira and Naomosa had arrived at a morgue. Meeting the mortician named Alex down where they store the bodies in freezers. Alex was tall and probably in his fifties. Balding everywhere except around the crown of his head, under his white coat Kira caught a glimpse of a brightly colored tie-dyed shirt. He was holding a cup of odd smelling tea.

"She's fine. How's everything going with..." Naomosa stopped nervously. Thinking better of whatever he was about to ask.

"My divorce?" Alex waved his hand and took a sip of his tea. "Meh, when you've been through four it gets easier. She has a fierce lawyer though, looks like she's taking everything."

"All because of stupid tea..." The Bald man thought, shaking his head... And sipping his tea, that smelled suspiciously of chives.

'Four?!' Kira thought, hiding her shock.

"Right..." Naomosa said awkwardly. "So what's all this about?" He asked, clearing his throat.

Alex glanced at Kira before he was willing to talk about the body. Nervous about what her reaction would be.

"It's fine. Not like I've never seen a dead body before." Kira shrugged, holding her medical mask over her nose.

"You have?" Naomosa asked in concern. "Oh yeah the suicide... Is that it?!"

Kira waved him off and Alex shrugged before he opened the door. Taking them into a room with a body laying on a table in the center.

It looked worse off than the people Kira had seen before. Or rather older. Kira had seen dead people before, normally they were fresh. Most were killed right in front of her.

"He was found on the edge of a lake. He'd apparently washed up. But it looks like he has been dead for eight to eleven months." Alex started.

"It's so small... Is he... Was he a kid?" Naomosa asked, putting a hand over his mouth and rubbing it down.
