Chapter 330: Arc 5, - 24: A New Foe Part II
While all that went on, a certain young detective had evaded the grasp of several ghouls and made her way into the room where she believed some evidence would lie in wait.
However, her eyes were caught on the figure that hastily yet adeptly gathered papers, documents, files and anything else they could pile together.
The brunette needed a second to even discern the form she looked at. In the room with various filing cabinets and an office desk. the figure’s back was turned away from her, compiling things on the desk.
A single thick braid cascaded down till her ankles where it was tied off smoothly with a red hair tie. Their hair was a shimmering silver with lines of stark white streaks intertwining down the braid.
Multiple buckles went up till their knees, strapping their silver boots. Greyish trousers went the rest of the way up and they wore a particularly odd top.
Mainly due to the fact that the figure had four arms—an extra pair below the normal position of arms and they simultaneously all aided in the effort to gather everything onto the table.
The extra limbs had the same peach complexion as the arms above. The top itself hugged tightly around the body and had two pairs of short sleeves to expose the muscular arms.
Within that couple of seconds of observation, Fumeko still had a little shock. But she readied her dagger all the same and stepped forth into shadow.
Hearing the shadows wisp, the figure’s head twisted to greet the intruder. The face of a woman with scarlet-red eyes and elegant features despite the scar going through her right eyebrow of silver—three black moles made a curve on her cheek right under her left eye.
Before the brunette’s shadows could engulf her small form, the silver-haired woman threw her right arms out- "Tuff!" Greyish-silver stone spawned above the wood flooring and spiked up to catch her foot.
"Dah-!" The shadows took her right as she tripped. "Woosh!" She appeared at the other side of the room. "Thud." And fell on the floor after bracing for impact.
As quickly as she fell, she opened her eyes and blinked up to her feet. She stood on the other side of the desk and reached her hand to grab any of the papers and files on the table.
