“That would probably be the wisest idea for me. Though I am not sure where you wish to go. That’s up to you.”
KID moved down to the fire escape for a moment and quickly changed, removing the top hat, monocle and cape and replacing his suit with something a bit less eye-catching. When he was done, he got back up to the roof.
“Shall we, detective?” He extended his hand out, grinning impishly. His mind flitted to several possibilities, but he ignored it for now. If everything went downhill, he would have enough time to come up with something. It was just one detective he was with and they were both in what could be seen as a compromising situation, if people caught on.
Hakuba watched curiously as KID moved down the fire escape and out of sight, brows furrowed in concern and confusion. What was he-? Oh.
“How did you…? Ah… And on the fire escape?” The detective, perplexed, moved forward to meet KID, and took his hand without thinking. And suddenly, he understood his own predicament. “Ah, never mind. I’ll get us a hotel room.”
While the detective still had no answer for his problem at large, deciding on the hotel, in the end, had been easy. He could invite Kuroba Kaito into his home without any qualms, for whatever reason (probably). But sneaking Kaitou KID in, even in disguise, was not permitted.
Besides, this was even something that he wanted to keep secret from even Baaya.
