Transcript
Page 11. A single silent panel. Momo kneels frozen in place, one arm still half-raised mid-accusation, her magnifying glass drooping in the other hand. Her huge amber eyes have gone flat and deflated as the theory quietly collapses. The trail of pudding drips leads past her. No dialogue.

A chibi girl in a yellow coat kneels frozen on the floor, one arm still half-raised, her huge amber eyes gone flat and deflated as her theory collapses, the pudding drips beside her.
About this chapter
A pudding cup nobody bought appears on the clubroom desk — and the next afternoon another one is back. Momo is certain a rival detective is leaving calling cards and follows a trail of tiny pudding drips across the floorboards to crack the case. The trail leads to Ganta, who gets a free pudding with lunch every day and hates pudding. Unable to admit she was wrong, Momo declares the case closed, eats the evidence, and falls asleep.
