[The new pattern was only depressing. Profiling with this new pattern would require dismissing all of his past profiling, but this wasn't a team that would easily accept the idea of this being a new Kira. Ryuuzaki himself didn't want to accept that he would have to aim for a new Kira, as if giving up on the first one.
Without knowing how perfectly according to Light's plan it was all going, there was still a sense of unease. What if this new Kira were captured and it came to an end with no explanation of the first half of things? He had once considered that Light and Misa were trying to pretend to be ignorant of their actions as Kira to escape charges, but he dismissed that idea. That wasn't like Kira. If Kira was not playing a defensive game. Not until now.
He had taken the case out of interest. The first Kira was interesting. Knowing how Kira operated was still of interest. He should have been interested. The new Kira could lead to the old Kira. He hadn't been unwilling to pursue the second Kira. What was different? The difference was him. He was impatient. It wasn't like him.
But going after this new Kira would be like having to eat chocolate ice cream when he was craving orange sherbet.]

Impatience isn't like you. It's coming.
