L called Sochiro back to base so he could see Light's reaction. For the a thousandth time since L had taken the Kira case, he was left speechless.
'Is this Yagami kid an idiot? Or is he just planning something?' He asked himself.
"I'm here." Sochiro's voice brought L out of his mental process.
"Yes...well as you can see Light set up a second security system outside of that slip of paper." L played the video feed back to when Light woke that morning.
The two detectives watched as Light found the broken lead piece. Then as he made his way over to his computer and booted up to the files, looking through those that were recently viewed. Afterwards, he made his way over to his closet and pulled out his school uniform, which he would have worn for the day.
...
Light's POV (sort of)
Light felt around his jacket for a moment, when suddenly he could feel the small device in the inner lining of his school uniform.
Without a single word, Light quickly dressed for school and went downstairs to say goodbye to his mother for the day. Not once revealing that he knew the device was there.
At the end of the video, L turned his head to Sochiro whose mouth was hanging open.
"Thats..." Yagami tried to speak.
"Strange? Isn't it. Over the past 48 hours I have gotten more out of your son than I would have without the survelliance." L rambled.
"Last night, not only did Light represent several key clues that he could be Kira, but also that he has been in the crime scene for a while."
"What are you saying?" Sochiro questioned.
"Approximatley at seven pm- Light excused himself from dinner with the promise of studying for upcoming exams. His hurridness suggests he is quite antisocial."
"As if- I can't keep track of all his friends."
"A mere ploy...upon entering his room- Light Yagami used three security measures to warn him if anyone would come in while he was sleeping: Position of doorknob, a slip of paper, and pencil lead. The same could be said for his closet and balcony doors."
"He's careful..."
L ignored the man. "Finally, Light logged onto a private account and connected with two males who we have yet to pinpoint the locations of. He recieved files on past occurences that are similar to the Kira case. One of which plays on the idea Jack the Ripper used a special book that could control how someone died to perfectly kill his victims without getting caught."
"He likes old cases!" Sochiro finally shouted.
L turned to the man, "The last thing I should tell you is that there were other mentions of such a book...one that could kill anyone with just a name and face...and that the feeds from yesterday revealed Light was visiting a informant who used to be known as the serial killer Beyond Birthday and has been for the past three years."
Sochiro remained silent.
L sighed, "It displeases me to tell you this- but even if Light isn't Kira he is probably still guilty of another crime that I have yet to find out about..."
Sochrio looked hopless.
"What I can tell you...is that if Light does know anything we don't- he can have the chance to be pardoned for all his crimes by helping with the investigation...that is if he is innocent."
...
L waited for hours for Light to come back from school. Ultimatley all he had to do while Light was out was look through death reports and review video feeds from the night before.
The man sighed as he stared at a different screen. This one kept track of just where exactly Light was- for some reason it said that Light was still at the school when L saw that even Sayu was already home.
"Where's your brother?" Mrs. Yagami asked her second child.
"Hmm..I don't know- something about tutoring another classmate." Sayu mumbled, trying to instead pay attention to the tv.
Her mother shook her head at her child and went back to the kitchen.
L frowned at the screen, "Matsuda- please follow my instuctions.."
...
L smacked himself. Light Yagami was gone. The tracking device left between two books on a library shelf.
"Recall Sochiro Yagami!" He ordered.
