12 | ** {{Averted}} seconds later: Matsuda can only hear a few fragments of the conversation from outside the conference room. However, he still hears enough to confirm Yotsuba's connection with Kira; see ExactEavesdropping below. |

21 | * IWasJustJoking: Hatori said this after he says out loud of leaving Yotsuba. This doesn't spare his life, though. |
22 | -->'''Hatori''': No, wait! I was only joking! It's not like that! |
