"You've just missed Shotaro Hidari. I'm probably fighting those that make the city cry. I'll get back to you as soon as I'm done."

Tip Box
The box is cardboard, mostly purple with some black bits. The top has a standup part on it that reads "Hidari Detective Agency". The message on it says: Need help? Know someone that does? See something weird you want someone to look into? Leave me a note here!

That won't even give you the benefit of learning from our mistakes.

[unquestionable]

Just how desperate are you?

[ Hina had to ask around to find out the identities of the inmates in that punishment game, but once she learns who they are she leaves two greeting cards in the Hidari Detective Agency tip box. One is addressed to Philip; the other to Shotaro: ]



Hello, Mr. Hidari. You don't know me, but I just wanted to let you know I hope you're doing all right after this morning. I'm really sorry for what happened to you and the others. Please feel better soon!

- Hina Izumi

[tanteiotaku]

You call it desperate when I'm trying to give you a hand?

[unquestionable]

You wouldn't offer that kind of thing if there wasn't a benefit for yourself involved.

[tanteiotaku]

Getting information about this place has the same benefit for the both of us.

[unquestionable]

That isn't something I need your help to accomplish.

[tanteiotaku]

Good luck.

[unquestionable]

I won't need that either.

[yokubo]

Hidari-san, can I ask you something?

Re: [text]

[tanteiotaku]

Sure. What can I help you with?

[yokubo]

Well, two things actually. First, I wanted to know the names of the other two who were... um... on tv yesterday.

Second, what's your favorite color?

[tanteiotaku]

The kid was Philip and the British guy is John Smith.

And that would be black, like the shadows a hard-boiled detective has to work in.

Why the questions?

[yokubo]

Great! Thank you!

Oh, um... because I like questions. That's why!

[tanteiotaku]

In my professional opinion as a detective, that sounds a little suspicious.

[yokubo]

Aw, mou. I guess it does.

It's just that you guys had a really hard time so I wanted to get you all something. I hope that's okay.

[tanteiotaku]

First we get cards from Hina-chan, and then gifts from you. I guess there's more decent people in here than I thought.

[yokubo]

She sent you something too? I guess I shouldn't be surprised. She's really kind.

[tanteiotaku]

She's a very sweet girl. I've seen you guys together a lot. Are you her boyfriend or something?

[yokubo]

What? Um, no! Not at all! We're just friends is all. I only met her a few days ago. So it's nothing like that, really!

Strikes are nonexistant!

[tanteiotaku]

So she's available, then? Ah, my bad. It's probably for the best.

pls

[yokubo]

Huh? What do you mean by that?

[tanteiotaku]

Well, getting a girlfriend might be kinda weird for guys like us in G-block. It's just a lot of extra explaining.

[yokubo]

I guess that's true...

Except Hina-chan already knows about my Branch of Sin.

[tanteiotaku]

Well, that helps. And I guess a lot of people know about mine now, too.
