In this chapter, we learn that the victim of the crime was a fraudster. The victim's sister, Justine, has come to collect the remains of her brother. Justine asks if anyone has been suspicious of the victim lately, and Justine says she doesn't know. Justine also asks if she should keep a secret that her brother was a "bisexual" man, and if she has to give up the pen that he kept for her. Justine tells us that the police team believes that the murderer is a copycat, and that the scene was handled with "much more emotion" than usual. Justine wonders if it's possible that the killer simply chose a more violent way to commit the crime.
