As if her day couldn't get any weirder, Maiko was currently being interrupted by a police detective. But not just any police detective, but one Sasegawa Hikaru, the boy detective of some small fame. Maiko had a few friends that were already smitten with him. In fact, that was the whole reason she found out he existed; a whole lot of nattering gossip from her immediate social circle.

"Oh golly gee! The pretty boy detective is questioning me! My friends are going to be so jealous." She spoke in jest. Aside from the fact that she appreciated this meeting was almost certainly purely a matter of police business, she wasn't really all that fussed about Hikaru, unlike the rest. While it was curious to have a detective at their school, Maiko had never been one to swoon over random pretty boys. She was still going to tell certain people about this, if only to have a giggle at their reaction.

"I kid, I kid. But yeah, you can ask me whatever you want. But if it's about my brother, I don't know what I can tell you that we haven't repeated, like, a billion-trillion times now to just about everyone." Mostly it was her mom and dad doing the repeating, but she remembered that initial period after the disappearance all too well. She had heard the "basic facts" enough times to have them burned into her skull. She didn't know what Hikaru expected to learn from her, but she had no reason not to tell him whatever he wanted to hear.
