Contents
Background
She is a recent transferred student that is in the same class as the Detective Boys in Teitan Primary School Class 1-B, along with Takuma Sakamoto. She likes dice and speaks with Kansai dialect which means she and her parents must come from that region. Her parents work at an office and don't have time to stay all day with her. Also, her grandparents' house is just in front of her house. In one case, she went missing since she didn't go to school and her parents didn't see her either which made the Detective Boys search for her. It in fact turned out that she just fell asleep in her grandparents' house.
Personality
She is a shy and timid little girl that had difficulty to integrate herself in the class so Sumiko Kobayashi, her teacher, decided to pretend to be missing so kids would team together and include her as part of the group.
Appearance
She has two braids held by two peach-shaped headbands and round glasses. Her hair is peach colored which make her look just like Keiko Momoi but in a younger self.
