Slowly, but they do get a break in the case

The investigation moved slowly. They tried to interview their friends, but a lot of them were as baffled as they were. They had to split up over the week, but leads were few and far between. It didn't help that Moka was doing model work for Ishigami Hitomi, the academy's art teacher. She was popular with the girls, so whenever the topic drifted, it either went to her or about someone else they were into, when it wasn't hitting on the 3 girls when they asked questions.Mix that with investigating during class proving difficult, and it took them a lot of time to get any information on the subject.

On Friday, Yukari and Kurumu had managed to get a few friends of one of the missing girls after school to discuss the issue. After getting off the main topic and talking about Ishigami for a while, when one of them remembered something. Their missing friend had been approached by Ms. Hitomi to do some modeling work, and had been excited to do so, as another girl had been asked by her the previous week. It didn't take long to figure out that the other girl had also gone missing, and the two of them started putting it together.

"Well, It looks like Ishigami Hitomi is looking pretty suspect." Yukari said, looking at her rival. They had kept the pranking down during the investigations - they'd each only tripped over the panties the other had pulled down twice this week. "We should probably tell Gin and Tsukane. Where is he anyway?"

"Oh, he said he hadn't seen Moka all week, so he was going to the art room to see her briefly and check in with her." Kurumu said proudly, Tsukane having told her and not Yukari meant she could taunt her about it. "You know, her modeling work with Ms. Ishigami..." A very pregnant pause followed that before the two bolted for the art room.

"Hurry up Slut!" "Shut up Midget!!"

Tsukane made it to the Art room and knocked on the door. "Moka? you there?" When no response came, Tsukane opened the door a crack, then the rest of the way as he made his in. "No one's here? Well, I guess I can wait for Moka... huh?"

Tsukane suddenly heard what sounded like crying coming from a nearby locker. It was open, with a jacket on the floor acting as a wedge. If it was Moka crying, he couldn't let this be, regardless of whether the teacher was responsible or not. "Moka!? Is that you!?" He ran over and fully opened the locker, to find...
