Day 15

[pandatrash]

[There are really only two important things to note about Day 15:

One, your tablet informs you that there's a killing night tonight! Tonight we're back to normal; only one murder, please!

And two, there is shitty prepackaged deli sushi in kitchen. So uh, y'know. Enjoy that.]

... Good.

Right now? I prepare for the next murder that occurs. And that means making sure there's nothing in here worth reading.

I won't have another situation like the first library where it was torched before I could see anything left over.

[blueeyeswaifudragon]

At least that menace should be occupied for the near future.

Can you read any of these? Aren't they all in foreign languages?

[very_good_end]

'Menace'...? Would you care to elaborate, Kaiba-shacho?

Mais bien sûr! ...But, of course. I can't let a little thing like a language barrier separate me from finding a clue, after all.

[blueeyeswaifudragon]

The first library wasn't ruined by the rodents. Hopefully your fellow detectives will be too busy examining each other for clues to torch this one.

Parfait, quel soulagement. Have you found any clues so far?

[very_good_end]

Ah. You refer to the antics of Akechi Goro-san.

Kaiba-shacho? You yourself speak French? Well, then why are you asking me about the books? I must wonder.

[blueeyeswaifudragon]

The one and thankfully only.

And I read contracts, not novels. If you've investigated these books already, why should I waste time looking at them myself?

[very_good_end]

Interesting. As expected, perhaps. Surely a CEO who does business on an international scale would need to possess a little linguistic knowledge.

As for the library, well, it is only a normal library... there's a good volume of reference material and fiction here, but nothing like the tales of individual backstories that apparently the first library possessed.

Though I suppose if you're looking for a specific type of book, I could find it for you. Perhaps even translate if you... made it worth my while, shall we say? [she smiles]

[blueeyeswaifudragon]

...I realize it must be tough being the only detective without a date to the big dance, but I'm afraid you're not my type.

[very_good_end]

The feeling is mutual... monsieur.

Surely you can think of something else. And if you can't... [shrugs]

[blueeyeswaifudragon]

...Don't tell me you did want me to take you out tonight.

[very_good_end]

Kaiba-shacho, please, do not say such things in public. It would be terrible to do something that, to your perception, would confirm or deny the expectation of that question, and be accused by the raccoons of violating one of the rules.

At any rate, perhaps we can talk, for information exchanging purposes?

[blueeyeswaifudragon]

Fine. Let's hear what you have to offer.
