Recall the teaser of the previous chapter.
After Minamoto Tamako descended the mountain, she immediately went to find the investigating officer to inquire about the results. If possible, she hoped to see the dossier... Naturally, the result was unexpected; the officer intended to conclude it as a suicide.
Her long-held frustration finally erupted, protesting that it couldn't be handled so flippantly. After all, this was a murder case that required thorough investigation to determine the truth, and a fair judgment must be given so future generations could learn from it. Rather than burying all the unsung murder cases, treating them as if nothing happened, and merely painting a facade of tranquility!
Only by facing the problem can it be solved!
If everyone handles it so perfunctorily, wouldn't other towns with similar situations repeat the same mistakes? Revealing the dark side indeed brings pain, but it's the inevitable path to brightness!
