Transcript
Page 9. A silent eye-level panel. Momo stands still and glances slowly downward, her magnifying glass drooping in one hand. From the big pocket of her own coat a clear plume of soft scent-curls now rises, unmistakable — the source has been on her the whole time. No dialogue.
Image description
A silent view of a chibi girl in a yellow coat standing still and glancing slowly downward, her magnifying glass drooping, as a clear plume of scent rises from the big pocket of her own coat. 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.
