Viridian Green was the victim of an attempted murder in Ryūnosuke Naruhodō's second case during his time in London.

Revenge for a deceased lover

Viridian Green is a student at Thorndike Arts School studying to become an artist. She lives in a flat on Brixton Street. Prior to Sōseki Natsume moving into the Garridebs' complex, Viridian Green was engaged to the previous owner of that flat, fellow student Duncan Ross. Green begged him to move out in case of a gas leak but Ross assured her that he will and everything will be fine. But he was wrong, Ross ended up dying due to gasoline asphyxiation while living there, leaving Green overcome with grief. She regretted herself for not trying to persuade him hard, gave up on university and went to Briar Road many times.

One day, she saw Natsume come out of the complex and followed him to the borscht shop. He told her he complained to the owner about the flat being, that's what people believed it was. when he woke up the gas stove was turned off, the room was filled with gas, and he felt like he was being strangled. Initially, she thought Ross' death was an accident, but upon hearing this she realized that the gas "curse" was still happening and became suspicious of the other tenant, William Petenshy. She heard that if you blew into the gas pipe then all the flames would go out and there would indeed be a gas leak. So she formulated a plan to confirm her suspicions.

After purchasing a bottle of strychnine off the black market, she sent Petenshy a letter that said: "I have something to tell you about Duncan Ross' death. Bump to the pub, Pepper Pavilion, on Briar Road on the 17th at 5:00 pm. I have some very important information for you, please be as discreet as possible about this.", she asked him to meet her at a nearby pub to lure him out of his bedroom. Once he left, she snuck into his room, and coated the lamp line used to kill Ross with the strychnine. That way if Petenshy tried the blowing in the pipe again he would only poison himself as punishment, if he was really innocent nothing would happen. But she was praying that the poison would take effect.

Collapsed on Briar Road.

However, on her way out, a book entitled The Adventure of the Lion's Mane landed in front of her. Curious, she bent over to pick it up, but was then struck in the back by a knife thrown by Joan Garrideb during a fight with her husband, John. Officer Patrick O'Malley found the body in his patrolling area and moved it across Briar Road so he could go his wedding anniversary with his wife. Because of this incident, she was placed in a coma for several days, not waking up until the case's end and therefore had been unable to meet Petenshy at the Pepper Pavilion pub. She almost couldn't be interviewed or be a witness to the trial when Sōseki Natsume got arrested for the assault.

Facing the truth

Main article: The Memoirs of the Clouded Kokoro

When Viridian Green meets Ryūnosuke Naruhodō. Susato Mikotoba and Sherlock Holmes, she immediately wonders if they were the ones who stabbed her. She reveals slight information about when she was walking on Briar Road which is ten stops away via the tube from the hospital. William Petenshy finally succumbed to the poison she placed after trying to scare Sōseki Natsume, but he survived.

Green decided to kill herself with the strychnine but the group comes into the room. She lies saying she was getting ready to go home and the bottle contained her medicine. Green didn't really want to have a conversation and she faints when she sees the picture of Ross, knocking over the bottle. She reveals more about herself and Duncan Ross. Holmes in the corner brings Naruhodō and Susato's attention to the rat that drank the liquid from the bottle and died, Green suicide attempt was exposed, causing her to collapse. She actually feels better, she says she secretly stole the label-less bottle from the doctor's cabinet. There's also an the letter to Petenshy, she said she got in the mail the day before the incident. With everything she's knows told, Viridian Green has to leave now. Susato begs her not to try and kill herself again and she won't since this probably means she still has a destiny.

Personality

Viridian Green has a very gloomy outlook on life, more than likely induced by the death of her fiancé, Duncan Ross. She is very apologetic for things that are not her fault, and is a bit of a nervous wreck. But over the course of the trial Green begins to feel better and more confident, even delivering an insult to William Petenshy in a way he would understand.

Name

  • Both "Viridian" (a shade of green) and "Green" are likely references to the color of her attire.
