Kuma-chan: "Yes. It appears that the post office worker didn't spot her either. ... Apprantely, for the Sonozaki main house, a name stamp is left hanging by the mailbox, so even for registered or express mails, the mailman can just stamp the receipt himself and deposit the mail."
Oishi: "Na-ha-ha, well that's careless. ... Then, when was the last time anyone has spotted her?"
Kuma-chan: "Her greeting during the opening ceremony of Watanagashi was the last time. It seems like she immediately returned home after that."

Oishi: "She's quite old, after all. ...From what I hear, doesn't she attend to some practices several times every week? What about that?"
Kuma-chan: "Every Monday, she practices Japanese koto (harp) at the village assembly hall, but it appears she didn't go this week."
Oishi: "Any calls saying that she was going to be absent? And has anyone tried to confirm that?"
Kuma-chan: "No, nobody did. It seems like she takes breaks every now and then, so nobody thought of it as strange."

Oishi: "Tomorrow, let's try calling around 10 o'clock pretending we're from the city hall. Please confirm that she's home."
Kuma-chan: "10 o'clock. Understood!"

Ever since it felt more and more likely that Hinamizawa's old customs are involved in this, the police has been secretly monitoring the gosanke (great three houses).

Up to today, the head of the Kimiyoshi family of the gosanke and the head of the Furude family has disappeared.

There's one remaining family head. The head of the Sonozaki family, Sonozaki Oryou.
Seems like an old grandma.

Even though she hasn't lost her authority, she rarely show herself in front of others, so they're having a hard time getting a confirmation.
... And that last family head too, has not been seen by anyone ever since she was last spotted on the day of Watanagashi.

Is she still alive and well inside the Sonozaki main house right now? ....Or is she......already?

Kuma-chan: "According to Sonozaki Mion, it seems like she has fallen sick and is staying in bed."
Oishi: "Is she really resting in bed, I wonder? I'd love to see her face and take a pulse...."
Kuma-chan: "..................You're totally right."

The two of them spits out a large cloud of cigarette smoke....

Kuma-chan: "Oishi-san, ...about the search warrant for the Sonozaki main house and Furude shrine. Do you think the application will go through?"

Oishi doesn't answer, and spits out a cloud of tobacco smoke again, and literally shrouded himself in smoke....
