Novel Blurb
[Free-spirited heiress who roams the world × Bomb Disposal Squad police officer who wants a stable job]
Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department
With bombings happening one after another lately, the Mobile Unit's Bomb Disposal Squad had no choice but to work overtime.
Hagiwara Kenji was sitting there, carefully studying how to disarm a new type of bomb, when the onlookers were suddenly distracted by something else.
The quiet office erupted into chatter.
"Everyone, look outside! A Rolls-Royce Phantom!"
"Wow, whose family member is that? They're so lucky."
"Damn it, don't let me find out which lucky bastard that is!"
Downstairs, a beauty in a purple spaghetti-strap dress stood beside the car, holding a little girl's hand and waiting for someone.
At the mention of the car, Hagiwara Kenji stood up curiously to look out the window. One glance, and his eyes widened. His joy was impossible to hide.
"Something came up. I'm off work!" He grabbed his jacket and ran downstairs, not daring to waste a second.
"I never heard Hagiwara got married. Hey, Matsuda, do you know?"
Matsuda Jinpei answered lazily, "He's not married, but he's got a wife and kid."
"What?!"
Hagiwara Kenji fell in love with a free spirit. She was passionate, carefree, and unrestrained. Nothing could make her stay, not even the bonds of love.
So he chose to let her go, believing that one day she would come back. Fortunately, he had bet right.
Yuanyuan's Diary
My name is ○○. I'm five years old. My mom is a florist and my dad is Japanese. I go to Class 1-B at Teitan Elementary School. This is my thirty-fifth day in Beika.
I discovered the big secret my classmate Edogawa Conan was hiding.
He's a bad guy sent by the Little Alien Kingdom to conquer Earth!
I, the great ○○, have uncovered all of his evil schemes! I must stop him from conquering another planet!
With a nervous heart, Yuanyuan handed her mom the secret intelligence she'd written on paper.
Her mom didn't care about Yuanyuan's big secret at all. She coldly said, "Copy your misspelled words ten times."
Yuanyuan burst into tears. That night, she secretly wrote under the covers: I'm the only one working hard for this worrrld. Yuanyuan is a great herooo.
Her cold-hearted mom lifted the covers, took out the diary, and made her shut down for the night. Even in her sleep, Yuanyuan mumbled, "Yuanyuan, amazing."
Edogawa Conan had been troubled lately. For some reason, the new transfer student kept staring at him. Several times, she had nearly noticed something strange and said it aloud, drawing the adults' attention. Luckily, little kids were easy enough to fool, and he avoided having his identity exposed.
But when Edogawa Conan found himself backed into a corner by the Bomb Disposal Squad's two aces, he could only manage an awkward smile. The kid's parents were not so easy to fool.
