Koma
Speaking of movie night, I was watching this murder mystery show with Tora and Inuko the other day...
The credits are rolling after the sixth episode of a show called "Row Killer".
Koma
Uh, I, um... I have to say, this show is much bloodier than what I expected.
Tora
Y-yeah, I was expecting something more mysterious, not a bloodbath like that.
Inuko
Ah, this is so romantic!
Koma & Tora
Romantic?!
Tora
Did it traumatize you so much you started making up your own plot?
Inuko
What are you talking about? The secret relationship between the OL and her younger boyfriend, flourishing despite the killer on the loose...
Koma
Yeah, I guess that was in there somewhere.
Inuko
I'm quite sure I already know who the killer is, anyway.
Tora
Yeah, I have my suspicion as well.
Koma
Huh? How did you figure it out?
Inuko
Let me get a piece of paper.

Inuko: OF COURSE they are university students! The office lady is dating one of them, don't you remember how she ruffled his hair affectionately, the s–
Tora: Yes yes, of course, the secret love. Anyway, it's the two guys who threw a party in episode 5.
Inuko: There were some other hints dropped during the show.
Inuko: First, the office lady lives alone, and it's NOT on the same floor as the killer.
