The task force, L and M, then monitored the movements of their suspects.

"How long will the monitoring continue?" Yagami asks.

"Two weeks should suffice. Right, L?" Y/n asked.

"It should be sufficient." He replied.

"Two weeks?" Himura questions.

"Have you got a suspect for Kira?" Mogi asks.

"No. No bias." L says.

"Monitor them equally," Y/n added.

"So even Light-Kun reads magazines like that." Matsuda comments.

"Matsuda," Aizawa says.

"That's not bias. Every man reads dirty magazines." Matsuda says.

"The chief is right there." Aizawa reminds.

"I'm sorry, Sir!" Matsuda yells, standing up and sitting down again.

"Then, do you read dirty magazines?" Y/n asked Matsuda as he turned bright red, and Y/n smiled at his innocence.

She giggled as she turned back to her screen.

The giggle was an auditory hug. It wended its way through the air, enveloping everyone in its tickling embrace.

Beneath the ceiling that only promised a stressful day ahead until nightfall, that childish eruption of pure glee was a gift that the task force didn't know they needed.

"Did you have to ask that?" L asks.

"He said every man does that. I was just curious if it was true." Y/n says.

"Curiosity killed the cat again," L comments as she laughed. "You have always been a person filled with curiosity."

Curiosity or inquisitiveness is a distinctive feature of human beings. We are curious to know about ourselves, our institutions, our environment, our planet, other planets, etc. Questions go on arising in our minds.

What are the parameters of the health of a person? Is there any life on other planets? What are the stars? Why day and night alternate?

Why the mode of life and activities of human beings vary from place to place? Why is there no communal harmony in certain countries? Why there is abject poverty in some countries like India and African countries than in others?

And so on.

Whenever questions arise, we seek answers to them. Whenever we encounter problems, we try to find resources and solutions to them. The seeking of the answer is as old as human civilization.

"Were you going to watch the girls in the bathroom and toilet if Himura wasn't asked to do the job?" Y/n asked.

"What do you think?" L asked as Y/n's mind ran slightly wild.

"That you're a pervert," She joked.

"Hey! I will have you know I would've asked you to do that." He says.

"It was a joke," Y/n laughed, gaining the attention of the task force before they focused on their work again.

"Sayu-san's come back," Himura says.

"Is the Goda family watching TV?" L asks.

"Yeah. While everyone except the Superintendent is eating." Matsuda says.

"Watari, get it ready," L says.

"Yes, sir."

"You have something else set up?" Yagami asks.
