I think that when Misora mentions that the whole house was wiped down from every single fingerprint on anything this could be a message itself because who else could be so clean in murdering someone and getting away with it because he was able to wipe everything he needed to but the whole house seems pretty fishy to me as in the killer must be someone Believe knew or at least lived or visited him often. What’s important to remember is that “L” finally showed himself but what was kind of weird about his introduction was that he was in the house the whole time Misora was doing her investigation so “L” already had a head start in overlooking the crime scene and then he was able to bounce ideas off Misora in trying to find this message the killer left. I wonder if “L” is going to stick with Misora throughout the story because he is a very wanted man for he does happen to be “the greatest detective this century” according to the book that is. The big idea was that a message was clearly found in Believe’s house or rather should I say on his deceased body as they linked with his own books he was fascinated about. This really struck me as kind of unique because even in the Sherlock Holmes series they would go into detail about how the puzzle happened but all the details they put in on how Believe was murdered is just insane in my opinion. I didn’t expect “L” to be in the same house Misora was investigating because they happened to be talking over the phone while Misora was in the house doing her own version of what she calls investigating. I could try rereading the part where she ends up finding the message on Believe’s body and maybe I will need to read a little more ahead to see what actually happens but as I clearly pointed out “L” finally came into the picture and now it’s a double steak out for both “L” and Misora as they continue finding clues and getting closer to finally capturing the killer.

Part 1
Pretty much what I predicted what was going to happen actually did happen and at this point in time “L” happens to be working on this murder case with Misora the suspended FBI agent. As I recalled in the previous journal I mentioned Misora taking orders from “L” himself over a cellphone. After having a GAUCHE convorsation with "L" Misora then goes to visit the first victims house which happens to be this wooden house near Hollywood street(Substitution/Inference). Believe Bridesmade was a very literal and CANDID man in the sense that he read a ton of books which happened to be in roman numeral order, he unfortunately was the first of the murdered victims(Substitution/Inference).
This part starts off as Misora entering the first crime scene which happens to be Believe’s house as “L” sent her there to investigate some puzzles or messages left behind by the killer that the L.A.P.D. missed. To my surprise it turns out 9 days before the investigation began the L.A.P.D. received a letter from the killer Beyond Birthday, the police investigators believe that these two cases have nothing in common but “L” believes otherwise as for this message came with a very difficult crossword puzzle.

I predict that during the next reading Misora and “L” which is also known as Ryuuzaki during the ending of the chapter will adventure out into the other two crime scenes and hopefully discover what message this killer left behind while also observing how these people lived and why they were chosen.
