To Ooishi-san.

There was a call for you from Section 4's Chief Shigeharu.

Apparently the slaughtered corpse in the Oujikawa River is related to the S-group, as we thought.

We're still verifying what happened behind the scenes, but apparently the deceased filled up dozens of self-created fictional bank accounts to their limits with money from the S-group, reaching around one hundred million yen.

It appears there were three or four men with former S-group connections involved in this.

They've already disappeared along with millions of yen.

The deceased was tortured on that point for information, and she was clearly slaughtered as an example to others.

There are apparently some real wizards chasing down the people who disappeared.

They're also spreading letters to related yakuza groups not to harbor them.

There's still no evidence that Teppei Houjou is one of those people.

As far as Chief Shigeharu can tell, he hasn't been told anything.

He was her pimp, but she didn't trust him at all, did she?

Teppei Houjou has left the apartment in Okinomiya and has returned to his former residence in Hinamizawa.
