Inspectors take him away while he is still laughing. Yako looks up at Neuro. "Is your eye okay?"

He grabs her head and forces her mouth open. "I'm immortal."

"Even immortals can be injured, Neuro," I add, whispering to myself. "Especially when reborn into a human body, waiting for it to catch up with the immortal soul."

~~~3rd POV~~~

Of course, Neuro heard what she whispered. He soon realised she was immortal, but her body was not. He still hasn't figured out what she is, not enough clues for him to work it out, not long before he does.

This further increases his interest in Yuuki. His heart skips a beat when he thinks about Yuuki, before he snaps out of it and walks away.

~~~Yuuki's POV~~~

Oops, I said too much. Hopefully, nobody heard me. Though I do wish my body would hurry up and catch up. I have the feeling that it will be in a couple of more days or weeks, but it is a hassle to wait.

Neuro turns to look at us as he stops. "The low-calorie mystery only whets my appetite. Come, it's time to hunt for more mysteries."

Yako and I exchange a smile before running after him. "Hey, wait!"

~~~3rd POV~~~

Sasazuka and Ishigaki step out of the car and gaze up at an abandoned house. "Senpai, this house is pretty creepy..." Ishigaki turns to look at him. "Did something happen here?"

"It happened half a year ago. During a spring rain spell, as the cherry blossoms fell, the case came to light. Architect Katsuragi Seiichi was buried in his work late into the night. That night, he did not leave his study. His wife, Haruka, and his daughters, Yako and Yuuki, were not at all suspicious of his absence at breakfast and left for work and school, respectively."

"At 10:00 AM, the housekeeper called to Seiichi, who had still not left his study, but heard no sound. Further, finding the door locked from the inside, the suspicious housekeeper naturally went to the veranda to take a look inside. The first thing her eyes fell on was a window covered in blood. Peering through the window, she found a headless corpse lying there. That was the dead body of Katsuragi Seiichi."

"After the incident was reported, Police Sergeant Takeda Keitarou, who happened to be near the scene, smashed the windowpane by himself and confirmed the victim's death there, it appears. Seiichi's head had been cut off with a small chainsaw, and glass tubes had been stuck in his torso. It looked as if blood had been extracted through them and used to paint every corner of the room. Both the door and window had been locked; the room was said to be completely unenterable. Yet despite the chainsaw and other evidence, there were no breaks in the case, and finally, it was ruled a suicide."

"But isn't that murder, no matter how you look at it?" Ishigaki asks.

"Yeah." Sasazuka agrees.

"So then...?" Ishigaki asks.
