Toriko Author Crime Novels & Stories

Iori said calmly as if she was discussing the weather “Did you see his face?” Iori shook her head, “No, I was blindfolded. But, his voice was familiar…” she added “Did you tell the police about this?” “They think that I have trouble remembering…” Haruki gritted his teeth to stop himself from bursting in anger. Iori didn’t need that, she didn’t need anger.

His hands begin to shake. “Return me to him. Even you know that he has the right to do whatever he wants to me for this”. She says with a tone of resignation, her statement directed at Riko. Riko doesn’t know if what she’s doing is right. She’s not sure if this can count as betrayal to Miyamura…or Misa, but she knows one thing, and that is— her instincts are never wrong. And her instincts are telling her that she is speaking to a victim. She knows that Miyamura killing Rei would be unduly justified, but she’s going to take a gamble right now.

So hurry up, or I’ll call the police.” Sato was clearly impatient. “I did it!” Riko admitted it in a panicked shout. Akiko immediately looked up at Riko, tears welling in her eyes, ready to fall.
