True. We are absolutely terrible at this.

It will be awfully embarrassing if we can't solve a single murder with little in the way of distractions.
They can. But I doubt it would be like last time.
[in the planetarium, lenore can be found sitting in one of the seats, closing her eyes and relaxing. it's not really clear that she's noticed takeru is nearby until she suddenly speaks to him.]
I'm not sure if we should be embarrassed or not, after all that.
[they got it right, apparently? but...]

[she looks over with a slight grin.] It was.
I suppose I have to eat my words from yesterday. I assumed there would be less curses this time.

It's strange that there were so many, for a case with only one killer.

A serial killer? That... would be a problem, in more ways than one.
