Page 9. A single panel, low angle. Momo erupts from behind the cardboard boxes. Her coat flies out behind her like a cape, the magnifying glass thrust forward in one hand, the other arm flung out to point at the desk. Mouth open mid-shout, eyes blazing. The clubroom is dim and orange around her. The cardboard box on the floor is empty. MOMO: "Freeze."
Image description
A chibi girl bursts out from behind the cardboard boxes, her oversized yellow coat flying out behind her like a cape, magnifying glass thrust forward in one hand and the other arm flung out pointing toward the desk, mouth open in a shout.
About this chapter
The pencil mug on the clubroom desk keeps getting lighter. Momo mounts a stakeout, loses a fight with her own eyelids, and wakes just in time to catch the thief mid-crime. This time the prime suspect is actually guilty — and there is a hoard behind the fridge to prove it.
