≺ ♘ ≻ “I guess we’ll just have ta find out, don’t we? I don’t normally deal with thieves, so this’ll be a nice change of pace, don’t ya think? Be sure ta make this interestin’ for me.”
“Trust me, tantei-han, that’s the last thing you’d need to worry about. I guess I’ll see you again soon, then~” A grin, a swish of the cape and smoke cover, and the white thief is gone.
≺ ♘ ≻ “I don’t think ya realize who yar dealin’ with. I ain’t just some detective kid. I’m the Great Detective of the West, Hattori Heiji! If ya think Kudou Shinichi is a force to be reckoned with, ya ain’t seen us both in action together.”
“Hmm… More than not knowing who I’m dealing with, I have to wonder if you’re comparing me to the usual criminals you detectives tend to come across. Because that underestimation would be far more insulting than any I might make about your skills.”
≺ ♘ ≻ “Maybe I’ll have ta start puttin’ a little more effort in puttin’ ya in jail. Seems like Hakuba Saguru struggles to do it, so I think I could show him a thin’ or two ‘bout jailin’ pesky thieves, eh?”
“You’re always welcome to try~ Though it’s both the other tanteis, and the task force you’d be trying to outdo. I’m not sure how much you could show division two about ‘jailing pesky thieves’, but I’m sure they’d be happy to teach you about how best to get glitter out of your hair, if you do decide to join the chase.”
≺ ♘ ≻ “Haaa… I bet ya think ya’re funny, don’t ya? Yeah, yeah… Laugh it up while ya can, KID, ‘cause ya won’t be laughin’ when ya’re behind bars! And, that’s weird, ya weirdo. Whatever. Not every day I take the word of a criminal.”
“Oh? I guess I’ll be laughing for a while then, if that’s my deadline. Is that you having faith in the police, or do those words mean you’ll actually come and start trying to catch me yourself?”
≺ ♘ ≻ “I’m glad ta know that my pain is entertainment for ya people… Also, are ya mockin’ my accent?”
“All humor comes from pain… so it’s not like it’s uncommon. You just happen to fall into that category right now. And no, it’s my separation of tanteis. Tantei-kun, tantei-san, and you get tantei-han. I’ll admit to using where you’re from to give you that one, but it’s not mockery.”
