Chapter Three
"Any new development?"
"None, if you don't count the one about the victim and suspect not having identities."
"How could they not have identities? It's preposterous! Even people who live underground have identities!" I yelled at the purple-haired forensics officer.
"Face it, Kagamine. This case is going to be harder to solve then your usual kinds."
"But Kamui—"
"Don't even think about asking my workers to work overnight. I know you're eager to solve this case—for whatever reason that I absolutely need not know—but we're just human. Not everything can be solved just by the click of the finger." He gave me a look before walking away.
And like always, he was right.
'Buzz, buzz,'
I groaned as I sleepily felt around the bedside table for my phone. On my search, I accidentally knocked it off the table. I groaned again and took my time to pick it up.
Who the hell is calling me at the ungodly hours of three in the morning!
"Hello?" I sleepily croaked.
"Rin," 'L' sighed.
I immediately sat up and tried to remove the sleepiness from my voice. And to think of an answer that wouldn't sound stupid.
"'L'" I managed to say before mentally slapping myself.
He chuckled.
"I guess it's a bit too early to call you?"
Damn right.
I nervously laughed to cover up my non-responsiveness.
"Were you sleeping?" his voice was as alluring as ever.
"Ye—Oh I mean no! Erm, no…"
He chuckled again.
"Did you miss me?"
My heart skipped a beat.
"W-why would I?"
"Of course… why would you? But I missed you anyway."
I blushed. I stood up and walked around my room to cool myself off.
"And why would you miss me?" I carefully asked.
"Because it's you. I always want you next to me. But of course, I can never have everything I want…"
Is it possible for me to blush more?
"I-I see…"
"Would you like to meet me, Rin?" he asked after a moment of silence.
My heart skipped another beat.
"C-can I?"
I could feel him silently laughing, even though there was no sound from the other end.
"If you could find me."
My eyes widened. The prospect of meeting him is certainly attractive, but how am I supposed to find him?
"It's impossible." I said.
"If it was in your workplace? What if I am in there? Would it be easier for you?"
'L' in my workplace? I never thought about that. He could be anyone then. And there were a lot of 'anyone's in my workplace.
"Probably."
"Then it's a deal. I'll be in your workplace by eight. Deadline's at three. If you don't find me by then, it's your loss."
"Why is it my loss?"
"Because I'll be watching you."
