The Master Likes A Mystery

Previous Event Story Next
IzumiOkay, let’s wrap it up here for today.
TsumugiGood work.
YukiI’m coming in.
IzumiHuh? Yuki-kun, what’s up?
YukiI’m here to take measurements.
Okay, step up one by one starting from the right.
TasukuI’ll go first then.
Yuki...
...You gained weight.
TasukuI just gained more muscle.
YukiMuscle daruma...[1]
TasukuDid you say something?
YukiOkay, done. Next.
HomareCome now, it’s your turn, Hisoka-kun.
Hisoka...Zzz.
YukiDon’t sleep. Lift your hand.
Hisoka...Zzz.
HomareI shall take his right hand.
AzumaThen I’ll take his left hand.
YukiAre you really gonna be okay with this guy as the co-lead?
TsumugiErr, well he doesn’t sleep when he’s acting.
TasukuHe’ll be on stage the entire time for this play so it’ll be fine.
YukiHmm. Okay, next.
Hisoka...*snore* Zzz.
YukiThis thing’s in my way so put him away.
IzumiHe’s treating him like an object...
TasukuI’ll take him to his room.
YukiThanks.
IzumiYuki-kun, what kind of costumes will they be this time around?
YukiI’m thinking of making a retro mix of Japanese and Western style to match the play.
IzumiI’m looking forward to it.
YukiI also want to use antique accessories so I’ve been looking for some, but it’s pretty hard to find antiques.
HomareOhh, in that case, I have the perfect pocket watch——
Hm?
Hmm!?
IzumiWhat’s wrong?
HomareGone...!
YukiWhat is?
HomareChristine is gone!
YukiWho’s that.
AzumaHe’s searching his pockets. Maybe he’s looking for a photo?
HomareNo! My pocket watch!
IzumiIt has a name...
TsumugiYou mean the watch your grandmother gave you?
HomareYes. It should have been in my pocket——
IzumiMaybe you dropped it somewhere?
YukiOr you left it in your room.
HomareNo... this is a case! A mystery!
IzumiI’ve brought everyone here just as I’ve been told...
MisumiWhat~?
ManagerIs there something wrong?
KamekichiYou’ve got nerve to summon me.
HomareToday, I discovered that my pocket watch had been stolen.
My pocket watch had been in my pocket since yesterday, so no one had been able to lay hands on it.
The last time I had identified my pocket watch was just before practice, when I was at the balcony.
In other words, my pocket watch had been stolen sometime between my transfer from the balcony to the practice room, just before practice started.
Now, as for how somebody had stolen it...
The suspects are... these two people and one bird!
ManagerWhat!?
MisumiSuspects~?
KamekichiI didn’t do it!
IzumiPlease hold on, Homare-san. Suspecting others for no reason is just...
HomareBut of course, I have my reasons.
First, Misumi-kun. You collided with me at the balcony, did you not?
MisumiAh~ Sorry about that~
HomareWhen you collided with me, my watch fell out of my pocket and you snatched it!
MisumiWhat~!? I didn’t do anything like that~
HomareNext, the manager!
ManagerY-yes!?
HomareYou are having financial troubles, are you not?
ManagerWhat!? T-that’s...
HomareEven after the theater troupe has fully paid the debt, your suits remain full of patches.
The fact that you cannot replace your suits is evidence that you are in poverty for personal reasons!
ManagerUrk! T-that’s, I’ve been investing a little too much into equipment...
HomareYou are having financial troubles, hence there is no doubt that you stole my pocket watch in order to gain some money!
ManagerNo way!!
HomareNext, Kamekichi-kun.
KamekichiWhat!? I ain’t having problems with money!
HomareBirds like shiny objects! That is all!
KamekichiUrk!
IzumiYou suspect him for a reason like that!?
MisumiBut your pocket watch is a circle, right? It’s not a triangle so I’m not interested in it~
HomareHm.
Certainly, Misumi-kun would not lay hands on non-triangular objects...
You are innocent then.
MisumiYay~! Innocent~!
ManagerI was drying the laundry with Sakisaka-kun during that time! I didn’t see Arisugawa-san at all!
HomareHm... that is true.
KamekichiI was on a date with Charlotte the pigeon. She can even testify if you want.
IzumiA pigeon testifying? I wonder if we’d be able to understand.
HomareHmm... then the manager and Kamekichi are innocent as well. If that’s the case, then who on earth...
ManagerBut that watch is broken, right? I don’t think anyone would want something like that...
Homare——
*door opens*
AzumaI’m back.
TsumugiWe asked everyone about the pocket watch.
IzumiOh, how did it go?
TsumugiNo one has seen it, apparently.
AzumaWe searched all over the dorm too, but we couldn’t find it.
HomareHm... I did not drop it, and nobody stole it. I suppose this case is unsolved...
IzumiLet’s search a bit more with the others.
TsumugiYes.
MisumiI’ll go look too~!
Homare...No, it’s fine.
IzumiHuh?
HomareThere is no helping what is gone. Let’s give up.
IzumiWhat!? Are you sure?
ManagerAfter you went so far as to treat us like criminals in your search for it?
