How interesting that the writer's discussion about a woman murderer led us readers directly to the impression that she's dragging around a body in her suitcase. However, since we never see the supposed corpse, and her apartment is full of clutter, and the dating app guy comments on her changed vibe, I suspect that the corpse she's referring to is herself, and that she's fallen into some kind of depression.

On the other hand, it wouldn't be much of a Yamashita story if there wasn't some weird murder, so it can go either way and I'll be happy.

it was a small detail i missed on my first couple passes but i thinkkkkk we can see the empty suitcase in one of the panels right after she closes the door to what looks to be her fridge, so im pretty sureits an actual corpse but honestly who knows LOL
but yeah im looking forward to seeing where this goes!!!!

I love how the narrative jumps from character to character. By just delivering bits of information, it helps the reader to get into the story without the sloppy use of infodumps.
Thank you for the translation!

PS: This a Yamashita-sensei story. Of course there's a corpse in the fridge!
