Transcript
Page 7. A silent close-up on Biscuit in her open cardboard box. She has opened her big round dark eyes and blinks once, serene and completely unbothered. A few soft curls of scent drift right past her box from the edge of the frame and continue onward — clearly not coming from the cat. No dialogue.

A silent close-up of a round white cat in a cardboard box with her big dark eyes open, blinking serenely, while a few curls of scent drift right past her box and continue onward. No text.
About this chapter
A sweet citrus smell drifts through the Tiny Case Agency, and Momo is certain a perfumed intruder has slipped in. She sniff-tracks the phantom guest to the mini-fridge, to Biscuit, to the boxes — but the scent follows her wherever she goes, because it is coming from a warm mandarin orange she pocketed days ago and forgot. Ganta points at her coat pocket on page five. She runs right past him, corners the cat, and only cracks the case when she reaches into her own pocket and pulls out the culprit.
