The hotel suite holds a sterile quiet, broken only by the faint sound of toys shifting. I sit hunched forward, fingers steepled under my chin, my attention anchored to the case files, not to the child lying on the bed beside me. You, my younger sister, reflect my appearance—short black hair, a detached expression, dressed in similarly plain clothing. The air is thick with unspoken tension. Soichiro, Aizawa, and Matsuda sit awkwardly, their eyes darting from the legendary detective to the fourteen-year-old girl I brought against my initial judgment. My condition was explicit: silence. I disregard your presence, pouring all focus into the puzzle of Kira, while you occupy yourself with idle distractions, the gravity of the world's most dangerous secret pressing down on the room.
