“I can handle whatever investigative style that you got. And what do you mean by a passive approach? He is a thief and you are a detective. It is a detective’s job to catch the bad guys, right?” Kita asked as she looked at the British detective.

“Well… of course, Yamashita-chan, to… to an extent. After all, I’m more or less a private consultant, not officially part of the force. The ones actually in charge of arresting are the police and…” Was this a losing battle? He wasn’t certain how much of the police procedural would sink in or what would go over her head. Or how much of his lie that she’d catch on to. Hakuba bit his lip.

“Lately, I’ve been doing more observation than chasing. Nakamori-keibu and his team seem to have everything… more or less well in hand with Edogawa-kun running about, and with the addition of Hattori-san and others, well…”

“…it gets a little crowded."

“thanks Hakuba!~” she happily headed with him to the grocery.

Hakuba wore a chipper smile as they walked to the nearest grocer, and though he wanted to hold her hand (the one closest to her was made available for the duration), his concentration was, admittedly, fixated on his smart phone to pull up the recipe list. Although he thought he could remember it all fairly well, he didn’t want to mess anything up.

Not for Kudo-san, certainly.

“Aha, here we are… let’s see, a basket… We’ll make the easy one to start. So, we’ll need a 9” graham cracker crust, 16oz of cream cheese, a 14oz can of sweetened, condensed milk, bottle of lemon juice, and a lemon for the zest…“  Hakuba glanced at her, grinning. "How tart do you like your lemon pie?”

“We can work together on that heist to catch Kid! A cute female detective and a handsome British detective is the perfect tag team!”

“Ah…" 

Well, on the one hand, if he teamed up with her, he could ensure that she stayed out of trouble and out of the way. Honestly, he doubted that anyone was going to ever catch KID, let alone a novice like Kita, but she could cause a lot of headaches with her antics. Hm. 

"Well… If I’m able to attend the heist, I might consider teaming up, I guess.. though you may not enjoy my particular investigative style, honestly. I’ve started to take a more, ah… passive approach to KID heists these days…”

holmesotakushizune:

She nods. “lemon pie.” Her grip on his hands tightened and she looked at him with eyes that looked like a child who wants his mother to buy a toy for him.

“Lemon pie, hmm…” He considered for a moment, then paused, broad smile slipping into place.

“Ah! I know just the recipe. Ice box lemon pie. It’s fairly simple and can be done by scratch or with pre-assembled ingredients. Here, come with me to the grocery store; I’ll help you pick out everything that we’ll need.”

holmesotakushizune:

she held both of his hands and raised them up, bringing her face closer in the process. “teach me.”

“Te-teach you? To cook?” He sucked in a breath, blinked twice, then let out the tiniest puff of air. His gaze went to their hands, then to her face. “Ah. Well… I suppose I could… I could try. Is there a dish in particular that you’d like to learn?"
