The clubroom is quiet again. Droplets still cover the window. Momo lies curled asleep on the wooden floor, hugging her magnifying glass. Biscuit sleeps in her cardboard box nearby. Ganta sits by the desk with his juice box and looks toward the sleeping detective. GANTA: “It rained.”

About this chapter
A faint tap at the Tiny Case Agency window convinces Momo that a secret visitor is sending a coded warning. As the taps multiply, she investigates the desk, the mini-fridge, Biscuit, and finally the glass itself—while Ganta calmly identifies rain on page five. When a brief shower reveals the harmless culprit, Momo claims her counter-signal drove the visitor away, closes the case, and falls asleep.
