This information surprised Mano. When someone close to Tsukamoto disappeared, it was almost impossible not to become a public talk.
"Tsukamoto's private life was a secret. So the public did not know that they were in a relationship. That person's disappearance wasn't big news either, because apart from the public not linking the incident to Tsukamoto, it's also because that person didn't officially disappear fifteen years ago."
"So the person was missing or not?" Mano was getting confused by Uda's words. She turned to Nakatsura. But Nakatsura seemed to want to let Uda tell the entire story.
"After being in a relationship for ten years, fifteen years ago, that person disappeared. But officially, the public only knew that the person resigned from any commercial activities. That person resigned to live a lonely life in a secluded place. So indeed although that person disappeared from public scrutiny, but the public thought that the person chose to live in a deserted place."
"That person had no family?"
"That person was an orphan. Besides being very secretive, that person also didn't have many friends. Two months before disappearing, that person had indeed said that the resignation and moving to a secluded place had been taken into consideration. So the management and the people around that person all thought that the person had disappeared on purpose. The police certainly didn't consider the person's disappearance to be a missing person case because apart from no one reporting it, there was also an allegation that the person really wanted to disappear."
"Tsukamoto didn't look for that person?"
"Of course, she's looking for that person. Tsukamoto secretly mobilized people to look for that person. But no result. It wasn't until two years later that there were rumors that person had disappeared. So officially, that person only disappeared thirteen years ago."
"Who exactly is that person?"
"That person is a singer," said Uda.
