"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!

I suppose I owe you an apology for not checking in on you yesterday.

Re: [text]

[tanteiotaku]

Same here. I had a hell of a day yesterday. Good to hear from you.

[starcharted]

You too, mate.

Want to talk about it?

[tanteiotaku]

Nothing left to talk about. It's all taken care of.

You?

[starcharted]

Good! Glad to hear it.

I had a bit of a... discussion with Clara. There were a lot of things she didn't know about this place. Well, and me. Dying and all that. I felt like it was about time I was honest with her.

[tanteiotaku]

I don't think I've met anyone named Clara yet. Girlfriend? Lucky bastard.

[starcharted]

Really? That's surprising. I know she's spoken with Philip at least once before.

... was it that obvious?

[tanteiotaku]

That's the only kind of conversation you have with someone you care about. [Like partners.]

What bugs me more is a fight I didn't have. Instead of one I did have.

[starcharted]

I guess you're right about that. She really does mean more than the entire galaxy to me.

Ah, so you did want to talk about it after all.

[tanteiotaku]

How did she take it?

I guess so. Where the hell do I start?

[starcharted]

Better than I expected, surprisingly.

The beginning, probably.

[tanteiotaku]

Hell of a girl you've got there.

I punched Philip for shocking Yui. I guess that's a good enough beginning.

[starcharted]

She's definitely something special.

Is Yui okay? And what about you and Philip? You worked things out, didn't you?

[tanteiotaku]

Yeah, Yui's alright, I think. I usually give her space while we're at work together.

We worked it out. By the way, that anonymous person yesterday is completely unrelated to the one we're working on.

But what's got me confused this guy that's here was a cop back home, and the first couple times we talked we ended up trying to beat the shit out of each other. But that didn't happen yesterday.

[starcharted]

Oh! Thank you for letting me know. Glad to hear you two are back on good terms, by the way.

That does sound a tad confusing. What do you think has changed?
