Page 5. Two stacked panels, read top to bottom. Top panel: Ganta sips his pale-blue juice box, glances sideways completely deadpan, and points one stubby hand flatly down toward Momo's brown ankle boots. GANTA: 'Those are your boots.' Bottom panel: Momo waves her free hand dismissively without even looking at him, already turning to follow the pale dusty boot-prints along the floorboards. MOMO: 'Not now. He circles.'
圖片說明
Two stacked panels. Top: a chibi boy in a mint-green cat-ear hoodie sips his juice box and points flatly down at the girl's brown boots. Bottom: the chibi girl in the yellow coat waves him off without looking, turning to follow the pale dusty boot-prints across the floor.
關於本章
Momo spots a trail of pale dusty boot-prints on the clubroom floor and declares that an intruder is circling the Tiny Case Agency. She follows the tracks around the room, magnifying glass out — and each lap she is certain there are MORE of them, a whole gang closing the ring. Ganta tells her on page five that they are her own boots. She hushes him and keeps circling, adding fresh prints with every step, until the trail loops right back to the two little boots on her own feet. Unable to admit she spent the afternoon chasing herself, Momo declares she surrounded the gang and drove them off, closes the case, and falls asleep inside the ring of prints. Ganta delivers the verdict once she is out: she walked in a circle.
