Sumio Kodai: Difference between revisions

Line 51:

Shortly after the events of {{CL|4}}, Sumio is still incarcerated due to the events of {{CL|3}}. While incarcerated he is interviewed by [[Sakura Natsume]] as part of her training. During their first interview Sumio shows himself to be cold, emotionless and unhelpful. Initially Sakura attempts to ask him about his crimes, but he rebukes her by arguing that analyzing the past is pointless in the context of investigating heinous crimes. He ascertains that searching for meaning in all things is an incorrect method of investigation, much to Sakura's annoyance. Once Sakura mentions [[Tetsugoro Kusabi]] however, his demeanor changes completely to something resembling his older 'self'. Sakura soon asks Sumio why a seasoned and respected detective would commit a crime like he did. Sakura tells Sumio that she believes crime is something that needs to be eradicated, however Sumio argues that an inability to connect with your own inner darkness makes it impossible to understand the nature of crime and how crimes are committed.

Sakura later felt she needed to speak with Sumio again and continue their discussion. After convincing her instructor to let her interview him again, Sakura conducts a second interview. Sakura begins to ask him about [[Minato Sawaguchi|Jack the Ripper]], but instead of answering he merely criticizes her makeup. This causes the overworked trainee to lose her temper and lash out at Sumio regarding the death of her close friend [[Kana Makino]]. This causes Sumio to laugh much to her surprise; he tells her that she sees things the way that he used to. Sumio describes the events of the traumatic events of the [[Parade]], declaring that as the source of his own darkness. He elaborates that his life after the Parade was a battle to prevent his inner darkness from consuming him, and that his revenge against [[Chairman Yukimura|Yukimura]] was his way of taking control of it instead. However even afterwards his darkness still existed and always would. Sakura tells Sumio the true reason for her second visit; that she wants his help to apprehend Jack the Ripper. The two then begin to discuss the [[Shelter Kids]] and Sumio advises her to figure out her own connection to the shelters.

After the death of Minato Sawaguchi and the end of the Jack the Ripper case; Sakura meets Sumio in prison one last time. The two finish their discussion about inner darkness. She thanks him for his help as Sumio declares they probably will never meet again.
