The Inarizaki Case Files

[Troublemaker x Patient One]

"Sakusa... I... killed someone..."

Lia stood before him, her face deathly pale. Of all the trouble she'd gotten herself into, this was probably the most impossible to undo.

Sakusa silently set down the volleyball

Already making a mental shopping list of alcohol, gloves, shoe covers, rags... and running through several places people often used to dodge waste sorting and illegally dump trash.

Sakusa Kiyoomi didn't like people like Naruse Lia, who were scatterbrained and careless. But when he was very young, he got a call from his mother at home

"Kiyoomi, Mom's best friend lives in the house next door now. Aunt Ryoko isn't home. Can you go check on little Lia? It sounds like something happened. You're her big brother, Kiyoomi, so take good care of her, okay?"

The girl, who looked like an elf, was sobbing uncontrollably, with snot and tears all over her face. Sakusa Kiyoomi quickly realized she was an endless troublemaking machine, so he had no choice but to look after her to the very end.

Because once he started something, he always saw it through. He never quit halfway.
