Chapter Nine

Detective Sawamura and another police officer drove out to the Nishimura holiday home which was located a thirty minute drive away from the village to question Iwaizumi Kaito's three friends about the day of the disappearance of Oikawa Tooru.

Even though it was a fairly short drive away from town the property was in quite a secluded place halfway up a mountain and in the middle of the forest. When they arrived, it was dark and looked eerie as the property was an older home.

The two policemen exited their car and walked up to the front of the property. Detective Sawamura knocked loudly on the heavy wooden door and waited in anticipation for it to open. Within a few minutes they heard footsteps and then the door creaked open and there stood Nishimura Ichiro. "Hi, can I help you" he asked.

"I'm Detective Sawamura and this is officer Takahasi and I need to ask you some questions about the Oikawa Tooru disappearance". The boy glared at them both and answered, "Come in if you must but if I don't like the way the questioning goes you will need to leave". "Ok Mr Nishimura, that's fine but I will need to talk to all three of you separately". "Ok" the boy replied.

The Detective was taken into Nishmura's father's office while officer Takahashi stayed with the two not being questioned at the time. It was decided that Nishimura would go first.

"Mr Nishimura can you tell me what happened the night that Oikawa Tooru went missing", the detective started as he bega to record the interview.

"Well a few days after we arrived we were watching a basketball match on the t.v". "Who was there?" Detective Sawamura asked. "It was me, Haruto and Itachi. Kaito was visiting his aunt and uncle. When he returned he was in a foul mood saying that some freak was corrupting his cousin. He was not happy". "Continue" Sawamura instructed.

"He was pissed because he saw his cousin kissing his friend. He kept saying that the boy was forcing himself on Hajime but we knew that it wasn't the case. It was obvious that they had romantic feelings towards each other but he was livid and said that something needed to be done to end the current situation". Kaito is extremely homophobic and even though we tried to get him to see sense we couldn't".

"Did you guys see what happened in the gym?" "No" he replied. "But we heard the boy screaming and we saw Kaito and Hajime get into his car and leave. Kaito was shaking with rage but Hajime was visibly upset".

"What happened next?" Sawamura asked. "Oikawa came out of the gym sobbing loudly and at one stage he vomited on the floor right outside on the floor, he was obviously distraught, so we went to check on him".

"What did you all discuss" the Detective added. "I was a little worried about him having a panic attack, so Itachi and I tried to calm him down. Itachi held his hand but this was just so he could check his pulse without him realising what we were doing. I left shortly after as I needed to grab some medication from the drug store. I got home at 9pm took the medication and went to bed". The detective told the man he could leave but to send Suzuki Itachi into the room.

The boy sat, looking nervously at the police officer. He corroberated what the previous man had said but continued with the story from tne time Nishimura had left.

"I tried to calm him down. It was heartbreaking, the poor boy was distraught. We offered to walk him home but he declined and walked off in the direction on his home". "Do you agree with the vile and unacceptable language used by Iwaizumi Kaito?". "Definitely not. I have lots of friends who are gay. I believe that people should live whatever life that makes them happy. Tooru is a genuinely nice guy who doesn't deserve this".

"Can you tell me where you went after leaving the gym?" the officer asked. "Yes, I had a meeting over the telephone with my agent about my next photo shoot. I will give you her number so tnat you can check. Please just find him, he must be really scared" The Detective smiled and him, and thanked him and asked him to send Haruto into him.

" Sit down Mr Takagi and tell me what happened" the officer instructed. "I didn't really speak to the boy, it was Itachi that was trying to calm him down so I left and went to the nearest massage parlour as I needed some stress relief, if you know what I mean" he smirked. "Ok you can go but I need the name and address of the place to check your alibi" the Detective advised.

The two Policemen left the property and returned to the station to look over the statements and to check the boy's alibi's.

'Please still be alive Tooru' the Detective prayed, 'I will not settle until I have you back with your family, so please hold on just a little while longer.
