[Another great day in the life of Detective Prince 2.0 - Goro Akechi is on TV, being interviewed about his investigation of Kamoshida's death. It was initially deemed a heart attack, but Akechi has been outspoken in his suspicions of foul play, and here he explains why.]
As many have said, Kamoshida was an athlete in the peak of health, so it's certainly surprising that he'd simply drop dead. Yet the forensic investigation has been... inconclusive. I can't go into depth on an open case, but I'm allowed to confirm that at this time, we have not excluded the possibility of murder.
What's less widely-known is that Kamoshida's supposedly sterling reputation is actually quite superficial. In the aftermath of his death, multiple, very serious allegations of abuse have come to light, including sexual abuse. That's why I think that not only was he killed, but the likeliest culprit or culprits would be among the student body.
As his misdeeds come to light, some have even called it justice, though I can't say I agree. We have laws for a reason; one can't simply murder another, even if that person is himself reprehensible. At least, that's what I think.
Come to mention it, isn't our audience from Shujin? I'm a little nervous giving this kind of an interview in front of the real experts. Maybe we should be asking them!

[It's his turn to crack a joke. He strokes his chin before he cracks a smile. A real one.]
Thank you, but I will have to decline such a generous offer.

I would imagine they're envious that I've yet to waste my life.
[ smile, smile ]
I suspected you might decline. It's a shame; I could use some engaging conversation every now and then as I work through this case.

[Thanks grandpa Ren. He idly pushes his glasses giving himself time to think with the swift motion. It could potentially be dangerous to have Akechi so close to them, but Ren can see the advantage of being able to speak with someone so close to the case.
Moreover, he can't help but be a little interested in Akechi directly. He's not sue why yet but he's intrigued as well.]
Well I never said I'd refuse engaging conversation every now and then.

[ Offering a hand to shake. Left hand; no need to feign politeness and offer his right. ]

[Another Joke! He's on fire.]
[He takes the hand with his right, almost like a mirror image. Is that his dominant hand? >REN WILL REMEMBER THAT.]
Ren Amamiya, by the way. Nice to meet you.
