[Blurb]
The utterly ordinary Tokyo office worker Saionji Mitsurin has carried her memories with her since the moment she was born into this world. Who would have thought she would become one of the biggest bugs in the world of Detective Conan?
With her supernatural ability to foresee someone's future just by shaking their hand, she's practically shaken the whole of Japan's hand over the past twenty-three years.
Think she's just a creepy woman who likes shaking hands? No, she does occasionally do good deeds.
"Don't go out tonight! You'll get hurt!" she tells the handsome blond, dark-skinned guy at the Poirot Cafe.
If he gets hurt, he'll have to take time off. If he takes time off, she won't get to eat delicious sandwiches and sweet lattes.
"Remember to lock your doors and windows. You know there have been lots of burglars lately." This time, she's talking to the bespectacled, squinty-eyed graduate student who lives alone in the villa across the street.
Of course, she can't tell him that the one sneaking into his house is that cafe employee.
"Watch out for traffic. Don't get hit!"
The silver-haired stranger in black, whom she has met only once, gives her a chilly, questioning look.
"You're thinking of sneaking out when I'm not looking, aren't you? That's dangerous!"
That's the genius bomb disposal expert she took in a few years ago, who nearly got blown up in a Ferris wheel. (Disfigured version.)
"Hakuba, keep an eye on your hawk! Ahhh, it's about to poop!"
And there's her father's friend's son, a younger boy who came back from studying in Britain.

The deeper someone's feelings for Mitsurin, the farther into the future she can see.
So the future she can see gradually stretches from a few seconds ahead, to that day, next week, next month, and next year... until all she sees is a black screen and a rewind.
Does that mean she's nearing the end of her life? Mitsurin is anxious, surprised, embarrassed, and relieved. It seems she's become really good friends with everyone...
But then...
The handsome blond, dark-skinned guy: "Mitsurin, will you be my girlfriend? I'll always protect you."
The squinty-eyed graduate student: "As your neighbor, I don't want you getting too close to that cafe employee."
The silver-haired man in black: "Would you like to see the other side of this world?"
The "bandage weirdo" at home: "If you're going to date someone, I'm definitely first in line!"
The younger boy back from studying abroad: "With Miss Mitsurin around, I feel much more confident in my deductions."
And most importantly, there's the adoring Miss Ran and the detectives, as well as a certain elementary school student quietly fuming.
Mitsurin: I'm doomed! Everyone is totally in love with me!
[Notes]
1. I want to write something serious, but it will probably turn into a silly sweet romance.
2. The timeline is undecided (still thinking about it).
3. The pairing is undecided.
