Senichi didn't expect that the credit he wanted to avoid would once again end up in his lap.
However, after reporting the important intelligence, Senichi was no longer involved in the arrest, and the remaining credit was divided among others.
Just when he didn't want to compete for credit, it unexpectedly came knocking on his door. There was no way to escape it.
Sigh, the life of a famous detective is so dull and boring.
While happily troubled, Senichi returned to the Metropolitan Police Department to take the statements of a few individuals.
Naturally, Conan asked about the previous case during the process, and Senichi briefly explained what happened. Conan, who had a hint of resentment before, immediately calmed down.
Oh, so this time it's a bloodstain special.
All the evidence and clues have bloodstains. Isn't this Senichi's specialty as a detective?
Even if he had gone, he would have ended up being overwhelmed. It's not bad that he didn't go this time.
At least it doesn't sting now. Conan adjusted his sitting posture, leaned back in his chair, and began to take notes in a relaxed manner.
However, what slightly disappointed Senichi was that his reward this time was the same as usual, with no changes.
[Remote Trap Murder Case]
[Congratulations, host, on obtaining 300 Fate Points]
The reason for his disappointment this time was also for a reason.
Because he purposely conducted an experiment by leaving Conan in the Metropolitan Police Department without involving him in the case.
In this way, solving the case alone would have caused a greater disturbance to the trajectory of fate, right?
He originally thought that this would increase his reward a bit, even if it was just a hundred points, to prove the effectiveness of his experiment.
But unexpectedly, the reward calculation remained unchanged, as if telling Senichi not to think about exploiting this small loophole.
The experiment completely failed.
However, Senichi was just conducting an experiment in the first place, so failure was within his expectations. After a brief disappointment, he quickly stopped caring about it.
After finishing the statements for a few individuals, Senichi took them on a tour of the inside of the Metropolitan Police Department.
And just as he was about to send them off, based on the information provided by Masuo and the photos of the robbers, the remaining two robbers who were leisurely counting money in their own apartment were also arrested.
Ironically, Mr. Masuo, in his confession, also revealed the reason why he, as a branch manager of the bank with a high salary, planned to rob the bank.
It all started because his wife, Mrs. Masuo, was too extravagant, and he couldn't afford her reckless spending with his salary alone.
So, he came up with the plan to rob the bank, but he didn't expect it to become the trigger for killing his own wife in the end.
A series of events triggered by desires led to an inevitable tragedy, which is ironically difficult to evaluate.
After solving this case, Senichi's fate Points reached 700, but he didn't plan to do a five-consecutive draw again.
Now his skills are gradually becoming abundant, and he no longer needs to use up all his chances to draw like he did at the beginning to enhance his strength.
The most important thing is that the three-year disguise skill that appeared in the store last time is really great.
So, in order to prevent missing the opportunity to purchase good items if they appear in the store, Senichi also plans to reserve some Fate Points just in case.
But there is a cycle to it. If he saves up for a ten-consecutive draw and still doesn't get any good items, then Senichi will definitely do a ten-consecutive draw to enhance his strength.
"What are your plans for tomorrow?" Just before saying goodbye to Conan, Senichi casually asked.
After all, it's the weekend, and if there are any activities, he might have to join in. It's very likely, that it would be a case...
"I don't have any plans," Conan thought for a moment and said, "I'm planning to stay home and read the detective novel I just bought. But next week, Miss Sumeragi invited us to visit Hokkaido..."
"Oh, the person we met during the Kaito case," Senichi's heart moved when he heard that, and he naturally replied, "I'm actually planning to go home next week too. Shall we go together?"
"Welcome. But you should hurry up and buy the tickets."
Conan smiled and said, "Miss Sumeragi booked tickets for us on the North Star train. It's a popular train, so if you don't book in advance, you won't be able to get tickets."
"Don't worry, I'll go after work." Senichi smiled, waved goodbye to Conan, and said, "See you next weekend then."
"Sure, see you then~" Conan waved goodbye to Senichi and turned to run towards Dr. Agasa's car.
As he walked into the lobby, a faint smile appeared on Senichi's lips.
Upon hearing it was an invitation, Senichi basically guessed which case it was.
So he continued to guide the conversation discreetly, mentioning that he was also planning to return to Hokkaido and requesting to accompany him on the trip.
He then confirmed from Conan that they would be taking the "North Star" train, further solidifying the information, and even managed to prepare a reason to rush to the crime scene.
Killing two birds with one stone, the plan was successful.
Well, it may seem like a series of calculated moves without missing anything, but it was actually just a simple back-and-forth between them...
After all, these were not confidential matters for Conan. He would easily tell you if you casually asked. Senichi's role was simply to smoothly lead the conversation.
Now, during this free time, he had to think about how to approach this case.
This reward that came to him effortlessly, Senichi was determined to obtain it!
After handing over the statements, evidence, and other materials to the prosecutor's office, Senichi left work early.
Ayako was already waiting for him in her car near the police station.
"Sorry for the wait. Did you wait long?" Ayako smiled and said, "Let's go to Erena's place for dinner?"
"Sounds good. I'm prepared to try every dish on their menu." Senichi couldn't help but salivate at the thought of the private menu available to friends.
There's no help for it, it's just too delicious!!
Although it doesn't make your clothes explode or emit light, it's really tasty!!
Oh, by the way, don't be surprised why Ayako went to university. After all, Ayako is still a student, so going to university is a natural thing, isn't it?
Well, even though her hobby and club are the Movie Research Club, she chose to major in Economics, and she's still studying under her advisor.
After all, she's the daughter of the Suzuki family, so it's only natural for her to choose this major.
But while others wait for job interviews after graduating, Ayako extends job invitations to talented individuals...
"By the way, I have some free time this week. Where should we go?" Senichi sat in the passenger seat, fastening his seatbelt, and asked.
"Well... how about a trip to Karuizawa?" Ayako thought for a moment and made a suggestion.
"Sounds good, let's do that then."
Senichi agreed, "We'll depart for Karuizawa tomorrow~"
