      Norman was looking over Rays shoulder as he sat in front of the library computer. He was, once again, hacking into the police files. 

      "Damn this is so much harder than last time. Someone else probably was able to get in and left behind a trace, idiot." Ray had been typing non stop for about half an hour and his fingers were starting to cramp. Emma was busy distracting the librarian so she didn't become suspicious on why they were on the computer for so long.

     "Do you think it was Kira? Or maybe a Kira supporter. Either way if he got police information on the case he can stay a step ahead." Norman pointed out as Ray grumbled how annoying all of this was. Not long later, Ray had broken through the fire wall. Emma had come skipping over as well. 

      "The librarian is reshelving this huge cart of books, so we should be good for a while." Emma pulled a chair over, sitting in it backwards and reading over the files with her siblings.  Not much has changed other than the addition to Kira's killing schedule. So far it still followed the schedule of a highschooler. This could be good, but if there's nothing new then there's nothing to go off of either.

      "Anyone want to get rid of traces and leave the page? Because my fingers hurt and this was a waste of our time." Ray and Emma switched spots. When Emma began to work Norman clarified that even though they didn't find anything, it didn't mean it was a waste.

      "So far Kira has been following a pattern. We should check at the end of the day if that changes or not. If it does, then somehow he has access to the files. It would make the possibility of Kira being a police officer's son. If the killing times don't change then he couldn't get access to police files." 

     After they logged out of the computer, the made their way to the park. Or in other words, their meeting spot with Sayu. With the hole Kira business the kids decided it'd be best to explain to her to never use their real names. Since they don't have last or middle names, they have a bigger risk of dying compared to others. 

     Sometimes they question why they end up throwing themselves in the line of fire so much. When they met Sayu, they remembered that they do it for people like her. As they neared the middle of the park, they spotted Sayu sitting under a tree sketching with her earbuds in. When she glanced up she quickly took her earbuds out to meet them halfway, crushing them in a bear hug.

      "I thought you were going to be in the library all day! What took you so long?" Emma nudged Norman while giggling slightly.

     "This nerd insisted on reading at least one more book." Catching on Ray ruffled Normans hair while Norman protested with a pout on his face.

     "At least I wasn't chatting it up with the librarian for like, half an hour." Ray started to laugh harder as Norman and Emma shot playful banter back and forth. Both shot a look at Ray, getting the same idea.

     "You can't laugh either! You were the one playing computer games." Well if hacking was a computer game, then yes, that would be true. But now all three were bickering, almost forgetting about Sayu, who made her appearance known by letting out a giggle. 

     In their opinion, the act they created was quite convincing. They stared silently at Sayu as she laughed at their antics.

     "Geez, sometimes I wish I had more siblings, then we could do things like this all the time! Though, I guess I already see you all as family." Sayu grinned brightly, almost causing the others to shield their eyes.
