Evelyn's heart suddenly leapt into her throat; she felt a deep curiosity about L.
If she answered the call, she would hear his voice, and maybe she would know who he was.
Feeling a mixture of excitement and tension, Evelyn stopped in her tracks, unconsciously clenching her hands. Only after taking a deep breath did she press the answer button.
Before she could speak, L spoke first, "Surprised? That I would actually call you."
In Evelyn's ear was a clean, deep, and magnetic voice, one that instantly captivated her, making it feel as though she was listening to the music of the heavens.
In her memory, she had never heard this voice before.
"You... Hello!" Evelyn greeted him flusteredly.
"Evelyn," L continued, "you've always been searching for that elder brother who adopted you, haven't you?"
Evelyn's eyebrows furrowed, and her expression became alert.
