Natsumi walked out on her apartment balcony, and shrieked. "Natsumi!! There's a drop of blood on the balcony!... and there's another!... and another!..."

Miyuki walked up. "It's—"

Natsumi sat heavily in a red chair on the balcony. "But how could anyone have got up here? And why were they bleeding?..."

Miyuki sighed, and held up a paint brush.

Natsumi stood, and found her light summer clothing smeared in fresh red paint, along with her arms, legs and bare midriff.

"...got any paint remover?" Natsumi asked weakly.

"I'll help you clean up," Miyuki said, "but then, you're repainting that chair, 'Detective'."
