Biblia Used Bookstore Case Files 5 – Shioriko and the Bonds of Time**
By En Mikami
I can’t take my eyes off the relationship between Shioriko and Goiura!
The following contains spoilers!
They finally started dating! Even though there were circumstances, waiting for two months… Goiura is a patient person!
I was tricked! The story in the monthly magazine about used books was about Tsuda! I thought it was about the old gentleman who came with Tsuda… I was completely fooled, but I love this kind of thing!
Tsuda has a painful past too… I wonder if he called his wife? It would be nice if they could at least get back to a relationship where they stay in touch, even if they don’t get back together…
There are so many versions of Black Jack? That must be hard to collect… But I can totally understand the desire to read all the stories if you’re a fan!
Hmm, Sumio tried to do his thing but ended up spinning his wheels? No, but still, crime is not good… Maybe Sumio was just clumsy…
Wait! Could Shioriko’s mother possibly be a psychopath…? After doing a little research on psychopaths, some traits include:
– Using others for one’s own gain
– Dominating others
– Lying smoothly
– Self-centeredness
– Lack of parental influence
– Lack of adherence to the law
– Eloquent speech

Is everything within their mother’s grasp…? Will Shioriko ever be able to outsmart her mother? It seems like she gave up this time, but it feels like her mother will interfere again unless Shioriko surpasses her…
Tanaka Toshio again…! No, he deliberately introduces himself…? In mysteries, this often turns out to be a different person… A mislead? No, the letter really could be from Tanaka Toshio, left in such a way on purpose to set a trap…? Hmm, it’s unclear…
