23rd Case - [Written/Action]

[Written]

[What’s written is child-like handwriting. Albeit neater but still resembling that of a child’s and what’s written isn’t directed at anyone. In fact, it’s written like a page in a diary]

April 13th

10:30am I woke up a few minutes ago and I think I'm in a library.  This isn't Grampa's library or the local library.  I have my detective tools with me though.  Where am I?

10:32am There are a lot of books here.  Grampa doesn't have a lot of these.

10:38am I’ve spotted a few people in here. They're all wearing wings and I have some too.  I wonder why?  What’s even stranger is that I can make mine move.

10:40am I tried to take the wings on my back off but it really hurt when I pulled on the feathers. I don't think I should touch them...

10:50am I took a look outside, I don’t think I’ve been here before.  There's a fountain out front and a bunch of buildings but it's raining really hard so I can't go outside to look around.  I guess I'll have to stay here for a little until it stops.

Further details to come as I conduct an investigation, starting here in the library.

[A few minutes pass before she writes:]

11:15am I want to go home. [There’s only a moment to see that before she starts scribbling it out]

[Action]

[For a good few hours, Naoto will be hanging out around the library since 1) it’s raining outside, 2) there are people in here to question and 3) books. So anyone is free to catch her sitting down with a few piles of books sitting around her with her nose stuck in one of them. Also if you happen to be in the library, you might be approached by a small girl and she'll even give a polite "excuse me" to get your attention.

Junior Detective Naoto Shirogane is on the case!

In the late afternoon, Naoto moves out of the library and makes a run to visit the bakery, All Passions and the flower shop to check things out and talk to more people.]

[He's also hiding away in the library from the rain outside, so he catches the ending bit of her entry. It makes him sigh sympathetically.]

Yeah, I want to go home, too...

[She nearly jumps when he speaks up and holds the journal close to her chest, a little embarrassed that he saw--had he been reading over her shoulder?--that before she could scribble it out. But of course more so startled that he came out of no where.

After a moment, she relaxes a little and looks up at him. He doesn't look like an adult... a teenager. Doesn't make her any less nervous and shy to talk to him but as a to-be great detective, she can do this!! So she stands]

A-Are you lost too?

[zeropoints]

[He doesn't nearly jump; he does jump--right out of his chair, too. He'd been reading it off his journal actually, so it's a shock when she starts talking to him seemingly out of the blue.]

Eh?? [What does this little girl mean "too"? OH--she's...] Are you the one who wrote that entry?
