Death sentence 『Oumasai』

Interrogation time (Kaito)

Shuichi stood infront of a tan colored house, nervously fiddling with the top of his pants before taking a step closer to the building. This time Haruta wasn't there to help him get through this since he went on a vacation with his wife. Slowly but surely he got closer to the house, his legs shaking as he did so. 

He hesitantly rung the doorbell and tried to calm down a little bit. This would be the same as when he talked to Kaede or Kokichi, nothing different. He just nedeed to ask a few questions then he could get out of there. It felt like only a second before the door swung open to reveal Kaito Momota. Shuichi had heard a bit about Kaito, he heard that he had a rather obnoxious nature and could be a bit loud at times---but apparently he was super kind to others. 

"Hey! You must be that detective that came to ask me questions, my name is Kaito Momota you are?" He introduced, putting his hand out for Shuichi to shake. "U-uh...my name is Shuichi Saihara, nice to meet you.." He took Kaito's hand, he had noticed that his hands were rather rough. (Don't ask I just think that Kaito would be the type to have rough hands XD) "Come in! You're not goin to just stand out there are ya'?" He asked, inviting Shuichi inside. 

Shuichi akwardly made his way inside the house, Kaito giving him a kind smile as he did. "We should probably sit down, it would be more comfortable." Shuichi suggested, still playing with the top of his pants. Kaito looked at him and nodded, leading him to his living room. It felt way more uncomfortable than normal, maybe it was because Haruta wasn't there but he had a bad feeling about Kaito. 

In Momota's living room was a white rug, in the middle of his rug was a glass table that had little rockets as decoration. Around that table was a tan couch that had a blanket with moon prints on the top of it. "Take a seat." Momota invited. Shuichi cautiously took a seat, he had no idea why but he was way more suspicious of Momota than the other suspects that he had met. 

"U-Uhm so Is it okay if we start?" Saihara timidly asked, still suspicious of Kaito. "Yeah sure!" Shuichi had noticed a few things about Kaito. He was nervously picking at his fingers while Shuichi talked to him. "So, you said that you were on a date with your girlfriend Maki during the murder, am I correct?" Shuichi asked, looking directly into Kaito's eyes. For once he had felt just a little bit of confidence. 

Kaito showed a bit of distress before giving Shuichi a forced smile, thankfully Shuichi caught it because of his keen observation skills---still he pretended not to know. "Yes I was on a date with my girlfriend..." He claimed. Shuichi nodded before moving on to the next question. "Okay, tell me about the suspect...What was your relationship with him?" He asked, curiously. "Rantaro was a classmate of mine. We didn't really talk to eachother that much but he was a good guy." He explained, Shuichi didn't say anything he just listned. 

"Did you have any problems or conflicts with him?" Saihara questioned, still a bit suspicious of the purple haired male infront of him. "Hmmmm, well I didn't have a problem with him directly but it was more about his best friend..." He chuckled nervously. "Ouma-kun?" Saihara jerked his head up when Kaito mentioned Rantaro's 'best friend'. "Yup, do you know him?" Kaito asked giving him a puzzled look. "Ah...uhm I've met him once, he was the first one I interrogated...oh yeah and Akamatsu mentioned him." He decided to leave out the little detail of them texting on a daily basis. "Yeah, anyway him and I never really got along, but I didn't necessarily hate him...." Kaito sighed as he stopped picking at his fingers.  

"Okay, can you explain your relationship with Ouma-kun with a little more detail?" Shuichi asked, in response Kaito nodded his head. "Well...our relationship was kinda confusing, we weren't exactly friends but we respected eachother. We weren't like Makiroll and him, they were constantly trying to fight each other....it was a huge mess. Although we were rivals we stood up for eachother, like when Kokichi got bullied by some of the kids from the other class I would chase them away. It was like that until I started to date Makiroll. When he found out He stopped talking to me completly and started to go out of his way to ignore me, at that point I stopped chasing his bullies away and returned the same cold treatment he gave me.."  

Shuichi processed this information and decided the next person he would be talking to would be Maki. "Thank you, Momota-kun" Shuichi smiled. "No problem, also drop the formality...it's freaking me out" This caused Saihara to giggle a little bit, "Okay, is just Momota okay?" He asked,  Kaito gave him a thumbs up while giving him a cheeky grin. 

"Okay the last thing I'm going to ask you is just a recap of what you did that day, you can start from any point in time...just give me what you remember." Shuichi said while giving Kaito a reassuring smile. "Okay I understand, Uhm.... lets see. At about seven-thirty in the morning I got up to get ready for school. It was just like every other day exept for the fact that I was going to ask Maki if she wanted to go on a date. It was pretty uneventful, I walked to school, saw my best friend Kaede and went to class. I had noticed that Kokichi looked disconnected. He wasn't paying attention to class and when Amami and Kiibo talked to him he would ignore them which was unusual because that was their little friend group, Kokichi never turned them down. Anywho the majority of the day Kokichi looked practically dead. He had heavy bags under his eyes and his hair was a mess. I just assumed that he was tired. Anyway the rest of the day was a normal day, well exept for the fact that Maki was absent." 

Shuichi paused for a moment, something didn't add up. If Maki was absent how did Kaito ask her on a date? It would be possible for him to call her but that wouldn't be a solid alibi since the body was found directly after school. He would've walked passed it no matter which way he went. He stayed quiet before getting up from the couch giving Kaito one more suspicious glace and left. 

Kaito Momota, he needed to tell Haruta about him.
