"What could be worse than a detective being a bad cook?"
"—My life."
Tokyo, Rice Krispies.
It's rainy during the day, and neon lights are brilliant at night. High-rise buildings block out the sky and the sun, and people live in a state of intoxication.
Crime is like mud, spreading silently to every corner of the city.
"... So, if you understand, do me a favor."
Somezaki Kaede, who was hanging precariously in the air, looked at the person in front of him and said patiently: "Release your hands."
"I can't do this."
The young man holding his wrist not only did not let go, but tightened his grip: "I also have something to tell you."
"I am a private detective, the kind with a brain." The young man said, "But compared with those colleagues, I still lack an assistant."
"... What's the use of telling me? You can find an agent."
"My budget is limited and I can't afford the consulting fee." The young man said with a sincere expression, "We are destined to meet each other."
"..."
A week later, a new detective agency opened at 2-chome 21, Yoneka Town.
Looking for the lost out-of-print Mewtwo, tracking down the most wanted android suspect, and then conveniently taking away the illegally modified organs from a black-hearted clinic...
Somezaki Kaede originally thought that days like this would continue forever.
Later, the detective died.
Later, he also died.
When he lost consciousness, he was still thinking that if there really was a soul after death, he might hear the detective's angry voice the next second.
Who knew that when he opened his eyes, he came to Mihua Town in another world.
The weather here is beautiful and sunny, the four seasons are distinct, and people live and work in peace and contentment. It is so beautiful that it is almost unreal...
"Boom——!"
Not far away, a bomb on the top floor exploded with bright fire and smoke billowing.
Somezaki Kaede:......
Okay, that's right.
This seems to be some kind of parallel world.
As he expected, as time passed, familiar faces appeared in front of him.
Their faces were the same as in their memories, but no matter their age, experience or temperament, they were all very different from the people they knew.
There were so many people coming and going, but the one I was most familiar with was missing.
It doesn't matter, Somezaki Kaede thought.
That person must still be alive somewhere in the world, but they haven't had the chance to meet yet.
It's just a change of place, but the things to do remain the same.
When everything is over——
He went to find that person.
Then, he became his assistant again.
A certain elementary school detective who sat opposite Somezaki Kaede and listened to him thinking about a bright future for half an hour:...
"Say it!" The little detective shouted unbearably: "I am him!"
"It is mine to redress, and I will repay you."
