Many thanks to those who read and reviewed this fic. I am really happy and this inspired me to bring in the next chapter, and here the story picks up from the last chapter, and here the main antagonist of this fic is about to take the spotlight as she gets an...interview.

Read on and see where this would go...

Well, enjoy!

Ch. 6: Shinmon

As Takaki told Enoshima that she can get a lawyer while giving her the calling card which also has the address of the police station, she then told everyone to wait as she will contact a lawyer before giving her answer, and about 30 minutes later, Enoshima's assigned lawyer arrived, and by then Enoshima showed up, dressed in her usual attire, and there she said she is ready to go with Takaki and her lawyer assured to his client that she will be cleared if any accusations, and everyone left the studio as they are heading towards the police station to commence the interrogation.

Enoshima's manager watches them leave and he is worried for his talent, and refused to believe that she is involved in a crime being accused against her, and the magazine editor is also in doubt, believing that a popular model like Enoshima would never do something like committing murder and believes that this is just a case of mistaken identity, thinking that the culprit being seen may have the same appearance as Enoshima, and the manager agreed to this and they hoped that Enoshima would be cleared of any wrongdoing.

"Oh, Junko..."

"My poor talent..."

"She is innocent..."

"I agree."

"Maybe those cops are just using her as a scapegoat."

"Seriously?"

"Junko will be cleared."

"Yeah."

Later, the scene shifts at the Asahina house, where you can see Naegi cheering up Aoi, and she is still visibly saddened at her younger brother's passing, assuring to her that her brother's case would be solved, which slightly alleviated her sadness, yet she still questioned why Yuta of all people falling victim to a murderer, and she wondered if the culprit is a nymphomaniac, as evidence found at the crime scene earlier showed that the culprit secretly laced Yuta's drink with sex-enhancing drug which caused Yuta to get overly-aroused and succumbed to sensual desire which led him to fall to the culprit's whim and had sex with the culprit, and he was later killed.

Naegi is still unsure whether to tell Aoi that Kirigiri and Takaki have found a lead to the culprit's identity, as he did not want to jump to conclusions and wanted the investigation to roll and wait for conclusive details before making any presumptions, and there he gives Aoi his assurance that he will do what he can to help and solve Yuta's murder, which she smiled as she thanked Naegi for being here for her, saying she is glad to have a friend like him.

"Thanks, Naegi-kun. You're such a good friend."

"Its nothing, really."

"I promise I'll do everything I can to solve Yuta's murder."

"Thanks. It really meant a lot to me and my parents."

"Yuta is also like a friend to me. I don't want his death to be in vain."

"Yeah, you're right."

"So cheer up...sooner or later the investigators will get a breakthrough."

"Thanks."

By then, his cellphone rang and he answered it, which the caller turn out to be Kirigiri, and as Aoi secretly eavesdropped, Kirigiri told Naegi that Takaki has invited Enoshima to the station and is about to interrogate her, and she told him that she suggested to Takaki that he should use polygraph machines and a polygraph technician to supervise the interrogation so as to determine if Enoshima is telling the truth or lying so that they would know if her alibi has merits or not.

Naegi nodded and said that he will head there to see the interrogation himself, and after turning off his cellphone, he is surprised to see Aoi's face next to his and she had a look of surprise, yet she is seemed to be given a glimmer of hope upon hearing that a possible suspect on Yuta's murder was brought in, and she insisted that she come along to see if the interrogation would produce results, and though Naegi tries to dissuade her, she would not relent as she said she needed this to help her cope with what just happened to Yuta.

"But, Asahina-san..."

"I'm coming along, and that's final!"

"But..."

"Please, Naegi-kun...this is important to me! I want to see this so as to know where the investigation would lead to!"

"Its just interrogation...we don't know if the person invited is guilty or not..."

"I made up my mind! Please take me with you!"

"Asahina-san..."

"Please!"

Seeing that she would not take NO for an answer, Naegi reluctantly lets Aoi tag along and the two teens left the house and heads out to the police station to watch the interrogation and see where this would lead to and determine if Enoshima is the culprit or not, with Aoi expressing hope that the investigators would reach a breakthrough in the murder case while Naegi is wondering if Enoshima is the culprit, as he wondered why a popular and successful model would commit such a crime over a boy three years younger than her.

He then hear Aoi expressing hope about this and cautions her not to jump to conclusion as he reminded her that this is just an interrogation which the results can lead to uncertainty yet she is upbeat that Yuta's death can be solved, placing her faith in the police.

Much later, the scene shifts at the police station where Naegi and Aoi arrived, and Kirigiri is there to greet them and she question him on why he brought Aoi along which he said that he tried to dissuade her but she would not relent, and Kirigiri sighed knowing that Aoi would be emotionally crushed should the upcoming interrogation wield negative results, and she told him he should have exerted more effort in convincing Aoi not to come here yet he said he did all he could but Aoi would not relent.

"You could have tried a more convincing way in order for her not to come here..."

"I tried, Kirigiri-san...but she would not listen."

"You know this is just an invitation and interrogation...there is no guarantee that we would pin down the possible culprit."

"I know."

"Now we have something else to worry about besides the outcome of the interrogation."

"Sorry, Kirigiri-san..."

"Whatever."

"..."

Kirigiri then glanced at Aoi, who looked upbeat as she felt there is a ray of hope in finding out who killed Yuta, and Kirigiri approached her and told her that she should not expect anything yet reasoning that this is just interrogation and said that they are not sure if Junko Enoshoma is the culprit, yet Aoi is fired up and said that it all depends on the interrogation and how the suspect responds, so as long as she clings to hope, she is sure that Yuta's death will be solved, and Kirigiri sighed as she is worried about what would happen once the interrogation ends.

As Aoi went to the toilet, she glanced at Naegi, seeing how worried he looked, and she asks him if he is here to observe the interrogation as well, which he nodded saying that he too wants to see for himself if Junko Enoshima is the culprit or not, wanting to know where the investigation would lead to and if he finds anything suspicious towards Enoshima, then he will keep tabs on her and everything would depend on the outcome of the investigation.

"Are you sure about this, Naegi-kun?"

"Yes."

"You might encounter difficulties. This is not just an ordinary case."

"I know."

"Be prepared...this is no ordinary situation...you might get entangled and may put your life in danger."

"I'm ready for that."

"Then there is no turning back for you."

"..."

By then Takaki came and told Kirigiri and Naegi that Enoshima is inside the interrogation room, along with the polygraph technician and her lawyer, and there he said that he, and the others will be outside the room where speakers are attached and they can hear the interrogation from outside, but Kirigiri suggested that she be inside the interrogation room as she wanted to ask Enoshima some questions, which Takaki reluctantly agreed, and Naegi whispered to Kirigiri to let him come along so as to observe the proceedings though she appeared reluctant to let him, and told him if he is sure about this which he nodded.

"Are you sure about this, Naegi-kun?"

"Yes."

"You might encounter difficulties. This is not just an ordinary case."

"I know."

"Be prepared...this is no ordinary situation...you might get entangled and may put your life in danger."

"I'm ready for that."

"Then there is no turning back for you."

"..."

Seeing how determined he is, Kirigiri allowed him, and minutes later, the scene shifts inside the interrogation room, where the room is like a sealed area,mfull of walls and nothing else apart from a sound-proof glass-like window where Aoi and a few policemen are watching, and the speaker is attached where they can hear the interrogation, while inside, Enoshima is sitting on a chair, and next to her is a desk where the lie-detector machine is stationed and cables are shown attached and it is shown that her fingers are clipped on the device which shows that her heartbeat and voice detectors are shown and would determine if she is telling the truth or telling a lie.

The polygraph technican is there as he will determine what the results shows and will signal at the investigators on whether Enoshima is lying or not.

In front of her, Kirigiri, Naegi and Takaki are sitting in front, and they are getting ready to begin the interrogation as they are determined to get to the bottom of this and solve Yuta's murder. There Takaki began the interrogation and asks her a few questions regarding her occupation and current status, as well as where she is at the time of Yuta's death, which Kirigiri and Naegi listens intently as the lie-detector machine began to operate.

"Junko Enoshima...so you are a fashion model, correct?"

"Yes, correct."

"And you are making a living by modelling, right?"

"Yes."

"Are you aware that a 13-year old boy was murdered?"

"No."

"Are you involved in any way?"

"No."

The technician raises his hand and signals that Enoshima is telling the truth, and Takaki is not daunted as he gives out another set of questions, asking her if she knows anything about a 13-year old boy named Yuta Asahina and if she happened to meet him sometime before his untimely murder, and there Kirigiri and Naegi were all ears as the interrogation continued.

"Have you seen this boy?"

"No."

"So are you saying you don't know him?"

"No."

"So you deny that you have a sexual relationship with a boy who is younger than you?"

"I deny it."

"Are you really telling the truth?"

"Yes."

Enoshima answered Takaki's questions with a straight face, and the technician glances at Takaki, signalling that Enoshima is telling the truth, and Takaki is not quite pleased with this, and to see if she can try to outwit him, he showed a recording of a cop interviewing one of Yuta's friends saying that they saw Yuta chatting with a girl whose description matched Enoshima, and Takaki asks her if she is the one that is mentioned, and once more Enoshima answered the question again with a straight face.

"So you deny this even where the recording shows that the description fits you?"

"I deny it."

"You are not lying?"

"That is the truth. It is possible that someone is disguising as me and used my image just to entice and seduce someone."

"So you are saying that you were at another place during the time of the murder?"

"Yes."

"Are you telling the truth?"

"Yes."

The technician glances at Takaki and signaled that she is telling the truth, and Takami is quite annoyed and approached the technician and asks him if the machine is functioning well, which the technician said it is, and Takami asks how come the results says that Enoshima is not lying as he sees some contradictions to her answers, and Enoshima's lawyer reprimand the inspector, saying that his client is answering honestly and did not falter and accuses him of having an ulterior motive just to implicate her, and this caused the two men to argue.

"Look, inspector...I think you have an ulterior motive for this!"

"What was that?"

"My client voluntarily submitted to you and answered your questions...she answered honestly...and the machine proves it! Junko Enoshima is innocent!"

"It is not final! We will conduct more test to see if she is telling the truth or not!"

"Then it shows you wanted to pin her so you can earn a promotion for your station!"

"What was that?"

"I think you're the culprit...then pin the crime on my client!"

"Why you...!"

Kirigiri sensed that something is amiss as if Enoshima seemed to expect these kind of questions, and she approached Takaki and suggested that he let her question Enoshima, which Takaki nodded, and he took his seat as Kirigiri began asking Enoshima, such as where she was at the time of the murder, if she is dating anyone, and if she is purchasing any illegal medication, in which she answered in a somewhat honest tone, not showing any hint of arrogance or haughtiness, and the polygraph results showed that Enoshima is not lying, and Enoshima's lawyer reiterated that his client is telling the truth and that she is not involved in any murder.

Kirigiri then showed out the packet of a sex-enhancing pill and asks Enoshima if she knows anything about this, much to the lawyer's protests, but Enoshima smiled and said that she never purchase anything like that, and said that it is likely someone who disguises as her so as to make it appear that Junko Enoshima is buying them, and as Kirigiri glanced at the lie-detector machine, the technician said that Enoshima is telling the truth, and Kirigiri gritted her teeth as she is sure there is a contradiction to her alibi, and she has a feeling that something is amiss here.

As the others are glancing at the machine to see if there is a malfunction, Enoshima glanced at Naegi, which he glanced at her, and she smiled and winked, before opening her legs, showing that she is not wearing panties and Naegi blushed upon seeing her bare WOMANHOOD before she crosses her legs, and he looked away in shyness, not sure on what to do, and outside, Aoi is starting to lose hope after hearing the results from the speakers, and she had a feeling that Enoshima is involved, given how confident yet smug she looked.

Takaki and Kirigiri were checking the lie-detector machine with the technician and concluded that the machine has no problems, and Takaki is forced to acknowledge that Enoshima is telling the truth, yet he secretly intend to put her under surveillance to see if she has an MO, and Kirigiri is glancing at the fashion model, noticing that she appeared calm and collected, though not showing any signs of distress or concern, and there Enoshoma's lawyer reiterated that his client be released, insisting that she cooperated and willingly answered their questions, though Kirigiri asks the lawyer if Enoshoma can be invited on later interrogations, which the lawyer flatly refuses.

"Denied!"

"But sir..."

"She accepted your summons...she allowed herself to get hooked to your machine...she honestly told you the truth...three times in a row...and yet you still suspect her of murder?"

"But sir...we want to be sure if..."

"No, never! I will not allow my client to get humiliated by the likes of you!"

"You could be charged for..."

"Then charge me! I even got Visa and Mastercard!"

"..."

Naegi watches the scene as the lawyer went into a defensive fit accusing the police of harassing his client, but Enoshima stood up and told her lawyer that it is okay, saying that she has nothing to hide, and told Kirigiri that she is willing to answer the police's summons if necessary, and Takaki sighed as he felt this is the one thing they can do in order to get leads to figure out if Enoshima is the culprit or not.

To Be Continued...

Hope you like this chapter, and though there is no actual action yet, this chapter shows what Enoshima is like and why she is a subject to interrogation, given how she is able to answer the questions and passed it...can Naegi and Kirigiri trust her?
