Kurumi flipped the page back to where she had been previously and slumped onto the floor with it held open on her lap. "Do you think I should just start from page one?" she asked looking up at Eino from the floor. She should have brought cookies...this was going to take a while.
"Perhaps," Eino gave a single nod, "you should look name by name." Although, why should she look through the entire book if her father's name wasn't in it? "But what good will that do?" Eino asked hesitantly. He knew how much this meant to Kurumi and how determined she was to unfold her family's "secret," so he didn't want to discourage her. "I mean, how else are you going to find him if now by his name? Do you reckon they missed his name? Or what else?" He didn't know what to think. Perhaps Kurumi would look at all the names under the title of her father's position? "If you know the year he worked, that should save you some time." The book was rather enormous and it would take more time than they had to spend searching through all of it.
