Page 4. A single panel, close shot down onto the desk. Momo rests her chin on the desktop edge and peers through her oversized magnifying glass at the lone pudding cup and its spoon; one of her huge amber eyes is hugely magnified through the lens. She is deadly serious. MOMO: 'No prints. A professional.'

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.
