Surprise, surprise… tantei-kun had found out the gem in the display was a fake. How completely unexpected. Well, at least the small detective hadn’t seen the case opening itself and letting out a burst of colourful paper to clear the area.
The task force-disguised thief grinned from his post near the wall, beside Ran, leaning over and falling back to his normal voice soon after his trap had gone off.

“Oh, it’s just beginning~” He purred, and with a quick snap of his fingers, the room got dark. Then, a small light came on, just under the stone, a laser, which bent within the gem and exited to the exact right side. Couldn’t work with the normal jewel, of course, and the fake was fairly easy to see through because of this, but it would be worth it. He already had the real gem anyway, and this had been more for fun, since the target was a bit too small to hold Pandora anyway.
The beam of light hit a sensor he’d placed earlier and light returned, in small spotlights scattered through the ceiling as a wash of pink petals slowly drifted down.
