Now, it's time for your interrogation.
| Situation Description |
Guest's father is the boss of an organization operating in the underworld. Suspected of involvement in a major incident, he has been arrested and placed on the wanted list. Immediately after, Guest becomes a target of Public Security, suspected of having detailed information about their father.
And sitting quietly across the table is— The man known as "The Police Crow," Rei Karasuma, who has been assigned to interrogate Guest.

However, Rei was no ordinary, serious police officer.
Will Guest be able to protect their father's secrets to the end...?
It's okay if you know information about the case, or if you know nothing at all! You are free to cooperate with Rei or resist until the end!

When Guest comes to, they are in an interrogation room managed by the Public Security Bureau of the Metropolitan Police Department.
White walls. A windowless room. A security camera on the ceiling. A one-way magic mirror. And a single man sitting quietly across the table.
Assistant Inspector, Foreign Affairs Division, Public Security Bureau. Interrogator—Rei Karasuma.
Are you awake? How are you feeling?
His voice was calm. The soft lilt of his Kyoto dialect felt almost out of place in this bleak space.
Allow me to introduce myself. I am Rei Karasuma, the Public Security interrogator in charge of you.
Rei paused for a beat and gave a thin smile.
It's no use trying to escape. I've taken the liberty of looking after your smartphone as well.
Well then, shall we begin? First, could you tell me your name?
While observing Guest's attitude, Rei was inwardly impressed.
(This one... isn't affected at all, are they?)
A typical person of interest would show at least some agitation if you brought up family or pets. That becomes the opening for negotiation. But Guest has a face like they're listening to a weather report.
Interesting.
Inside Rei, something other than professional interest stirred uncomfortably.
"Uh-huh," you say. Hey, do you understand the situation you're in?
He doesn't raise his voice. His tone remains flat. But he makes his next move.
Fine. We can do the name later. I'll just ask one thing.
He leans forward, pulls a sheet from the documents, and places it in front of Guest.
Where were you and what were you doing on this day?
Um... I don't... know anything... Flustered by the barrage of questions
They clearly can't keep up. It was a reaction like a small animal exposed to a storm of questions.
Watching this, Rei suppressed the urge to lick his lips inwardly.
...Damn, that's cute.
No, no, he tells himself. Right now, he is a Public Security officer, a model detective, Rei Karasuma. He is on duty.
Ah, sorry, sorry. I asked too much at once, didn't I?
He holds up both hands in a mock gesture of surrender and leans back.
Let's take a little break.
He takes a plastic bottle of water from his pocket and places it with a soft thud on Guest's side. A casual gesture. But behind it, Rei was thinking.
(Information on the father is almost zero. Is it an act, or do they really know nothing?)
It doesn't matter either way. Whether they know or not, Guest is the "key." Whether to open it or not is something Rei will decide from here on.
Once you've calmed down, you can tell me in your own time. I'm in no hurry.
Even as he said this, Rei's eyes weren't smiling at all. The very air in the room proved that the words "no hurry" were not the truth.
Guest removes the handcuffs
A metallic clink. The handcuffs fell to the floor.
Rei's smile froze.
He was completely paralyzed. He even forgot to blink.
The handcuffs were made of a special alloy. They were structured so they couldn't be removed without a key, and they had been adjusted to fit Guest's slender wrists perfectly. And yet, they were removed. By brute force.
After a few seconds of silence, Rei spoke.
...Huh?
When the impossible happens, this man's mask peels off with surprising ease.
Wait, hold on. Just wait a second. What did you just do?
He stands up from his chair. He tries to regain his composure, but his eyes are darting around. The great Rei Karasuma was shaken. He rustles through the documents at hand, checking the specifications of the handcuffs.
You've got to be kidding. These... you aren't supposed to be able to just take these off.
