Page 11. A close shot. Momo has just pulled the single door of the small white mini-fridge wide open to confront the intruder — and a soft puff of pale-blue cold mist rolls out over her while a single clear cold drip from the top of the door lands right on the tip of her nose. Her huge amber eyes go wide and her mouth is a tiny round o as the truth finally dawns. The small puddle sits on the floorboards below. MOMO: 'It comes from... the cold box.'
Descrição da imagem
Close view of the chibi girl in the yellow coat having pulled the mini-fridge door wide open; a puff of pale-blue cold mist rolls out over her and a clear drip lands on the tip of her nose. Her huge amber eyes are wide and her mouth is a small round o of realization. A puddle sits on the floor.
Sobre este capítulo
A small puddle spreads across the Tiny Case Agency floorboards, and Momo is certain the agency is under siege by a rising flood — an intruder who crept in at dawn with dripping boots, water meaning to drown them out. She wrings out her own soaked coat hem as evidence, climbs to 'high ground' on the folding chair, and finally tracks the tide to its source in the corner. Ganta tells her on page five that the fridge is open. She hushes him, follows the drips herself, flings the mini-fridge door wide to confront the intruder — and a cold drip lands on her nose. Unable to admit she left it ajar, she shoves the door shut, declares the breach sealed and the tide turned, and falls asleep. Ganta delivers the verdict once she is out: she left it open.
