"Hair."

The first word I heard once I stepped into the room. L was sitting by the coffee table alone, examining what looked like evidences. He gave me a look of acknowledgement, before going back to his task.

"Crumbs from snacks."

I placed my bag down next to me, sliding into the seat next to his. "Yagami san." He suddenly called out, gaining a surprised reply from the chief. "If I die in the next few days, your son is Kira."

I blinked. What did I miss? A few seconds passed before the comment could sink in. "What did you just say Ryuzaki?" He exploded, standing up from his seat. "That's right! Where is all this coming from?" Matsuda joined in. I didn't voice my thoughts, but they were pretty much the same as theirs.

"I will arrange it so that you can use Watari as you please. The rest will be up to you."

"You said that the majority of your suspicions have already been dismissed! How much do you really suspect my son?" Soichiro shouted, coming closer.

"Majority." I emphasized. He stared at me for a while, before gritting his teeth. "You still suspect him too?"

"To be honest," I started, staring off into space. "I never did once not suspect him."

This seemed to outrage him more, but he got his temper under control, stalking out of the room with his two companions following behind him. Matsuda didn't even give me a second look.

I sighed, leaning my head on the table. "What are you gonna do now?" I asked. He looked at me, seemingly contemplating his decisions.

"You might as well tell me now, since I hate it when you do your surprise attacks." I smiled knowingly. He looked back, surprised before going back to his usual expression. "I was planning to go back to your school...."

>...........................<

We must be an unusual sight to see, with L sitting in his weird position and me propping one leg up on the bench and the other crossed in front of it. I rested my head on my knee with my arm supporting, waiting for our target to arrive.

We spotted Light and his girlfriend half a mile away, and I tensed up. "Relax." L muttered from beside me. I did as he said, settling back down onto the bench. "That's Takada, his supposed girlfriend." I made a face. "Oh? What about Misa?" He asked, flipping his small book that he brought along as a prop. I shrugged.

The target came closer. 10 meters. 5 meters.

"Ah! Yagami kun...........hi" L spoke out. Oh my god. I should have done the introduction, he sounds faker than that Takada girl. I waved smally. Light gained a steely look. Hehehehehe.

"Takada san, I'd like to speak to them alone for a bit. I'll see you later." He more or less ordered. She complied willingly, going away.

"You said that you were scared of showing your face in public. Are you okay?" Light asked, bringing back my motherly feels. I resisted the urge to nod along, but smiled instead. "Its fine, as long as you are not Kira, right?" I asked innocently.

He smirked back. "Of course."

"Shall we go to the cafeteria to get some cake?" L asked, getting off his usual sitting position.

"I wonder if they have blueberry cheesecake." I muttered dreamily. "Don't know, I cant remember." Replied Light offhandedly. I smirked. He's thinking of something.

"Light! There you are!" A loud and shrill voice caught our attention. "I had something nearby, so I thought I drop by!" Well isn't this a wonderful surprise?

Misa came bounding towards us like an excited puppy, her two pigtails bouncing with every step she took. I gave her a glance.

Fancy, slightly revealing clothes, either going for a shoot or just ended one. Considering the lack of sweat on her and her high level of energy, my guess was the former.

"Light, your friends? He is wonderfully unique, isn't he? Im Light's girlfriend, Misa Amane. Pleased to meet you!"

I gave a large smile, almost too large. "Satoru." I introduced, using the fake name that I used when I first met L. (Chapter 3)

"Im Ryuga Hideki." Said L, his eyes as wide as saucers. "Huh? Ryuga Hideki.." She mumbled, looking at something above his head. I looked as well, but saw nothing. What is she doing?

"Yeah, he's got the same name as the idol. Funny, huh?" Joked Light, blocking her from our view. L suddenly got a crazed look on his face, chuckling heavily. I nudged his arm, trying to stop him from getting too excited. "Light...Im jealous." He finally said.

"I've been a fan of Misa since the August edition of Eighteen."

Misa began clapping and jumping up and down. "Yay! Really? Im happy!" This began to attract many people's attention, just like what we wanted. A crowd began to form, and I secretly moved closer to Misa. I slid my hand over to her back pocket, grabbing her phone and quickly hid it in my own pocket.

"No! Someone's just touched my butt!" She cried out. I quickly moved away, giving L a desperate look. He glanced at me, before throwing his arms into the air. "What a cheek! To take advantage of this confusion to do something like that!" He ran in front of her. "I'll find the culprit!"

She giggled. "Ryuga san, you're so funny!"

Well, at least it was something...

"Misa, its time to go for your shoot!" A lady, who im assuming is her manager, pulled her away from the crowd.

I smirked. I love it when im right.

"Well then, shall we go, Yagami kun?" asked L. "Yeah. You go ahead. I need to use the toilet."

"Really? Okay then." I answered, pulling L away, anxious for the plan to end. I fingered the phone in my pocket, since I was adamant to Ryuzaki being the one to take her phone.

The phone finally rang. I held it up to the air, in plain sight for Light to see. I picked up the call, knowing that he was watching. "Yes, hello?" I spoke.

"What do you mean by hello?" Came his deadpan voice. I held back my laughter, sticking to the script. "It seems someone dropped this phone in the middle of all the confusion just now."

There was no reply for a couple of seconds. "Hello?" I spoke again.

"That's Misa's phone. I will return it to her." He walked towards me. "Really? Okay, got it." I replied into the phone, snapping it shut and handing it to Light. L and I walked away again, before his cellphone rang.

"Oh, this time it's mine." He fished it out of his pocket, bringing it close to his ear. He spoke for a while, before hanging up.

"We have apprehended Misa Amane on suspicion of being the second Kira."
