*He responds with a small shrug, something almost more like a roll of his shoulder.*
It could never have been easier, under the circumstances -- I am lucky everything went as well as it did.
To begin with, as I said, we were able to capture Higuchi. It went more or less as you had described it to me; that put me in contact with Rem. I was able to approach her with the knowledge that the thirteen-day rule was fake, and that I required her help if your double was to be spared.
The official line is now that Light and Misa acted as Kira, but Higuchi had a passive control over them -- that is, even if he were to die, they might still feel compelled to act as Kira in the future if they came in any contact with paper from the Death Note.
*He feels that in mentioning Ryuk, he's gotten ahead of himself -- that happened later, much later in the story.*
I would not call it a full year, but yes, a number of apples were involved. I was unaware of how expensive apples are in Japan until then, Misa.
