What does tehai mean? I've found it is a noun meaning "arrangement", but then I couldn't translate the phrase.
And is there a difference between "modoru" and "kaeru"? |
Ok, let's see. The first part could mean "Please make arrangements focusing on Japan", if tehai IS arrangement (my hiragana agrees with that, but always hard to tell out of romaji) and the second "There is a 97% probability that Kira is in Japan". Lastly, "He probably won't return to here, right?"
moderu is simply a more formal, polite way to say return, it's the same as kaeru in meaning, just the emphasis is slightly more high brow.
