Whisper

While being armed was not uncommon for the detective these days, it was incredibly unlikely for him to actually pull the gun out at any time. Just as his parents, Hakuba was a pacifist to a fault, but everyone, he supposed, had their limits. 

His happened to be assassins with which he had a personal grudge against. 

Even then, the weapon was meant to be more of an intimidating tactic than anything. Hakuba wanted Spider to know that he was serious, and that he was more than capable of transcending the apparent typical high school detective convention where necessary. And, now that it was after a heist, and he’d tracked Spider to a place he imagined the assassin thought was safe, it was time to show that he meant business, coming up behind him to press the barrel of the gun against Spider’s back.

“I can be cruel if I have to,” he whispered, smirk tugging at his lips. 

He would be Spider’s Sherlock yet.

There was something different about Nakamori Aoko that morning, and Hakuba couldn’t quite place it. Had she done her hair any differently..? No. It was the same, mousey, wild mess that it always was. Her school uniform was exactly the same, as well. No more makeup than was allowed by policy. No excessive hair accessories. So what was it? 

Curious and somehow determined, the detective made his way over to her desk to investigate, feigning the need to ask about one of the questions on their maths homework. She was, at least, more than proficient in the subject so it wasn’t as though it was farfetched to think that she might have some sort of insight on the topic. It was there, though, that he realized, leaning over her desk, that she had the particular scent of strawberries. Specifically, strawberry shampoo. A weakness of his. 

Hakuba allowed himself just the tiniest breath to take in the scent before sighing a wistful sigh. “You smell lovely,” he whispered, and ignored his own blush at the statement in favor of immediately returning the topic to math. “So, about question fourteen…” 

“Whisper~”

The teasing banter was one of the things that Hakuba loved most about the heists… especially when they managed to get up close and personal with it. Such a situation, like the one they were in now, was perfect for it. He had KID ‘cornered’ on the the rooftop, police surrounding the ground below, many more trying to scramble up the several flights of stairs in the building, but for the moment, they were alone. He’d delivered a particularly biting comment, one literally about biting the thief, with a sly smile and an arch of his brow, and had laughed when he’d gotten a comment about being wilder than expected in return. To this, Hakuba simply moved closer, gaze predatory as he leaned in to whisper his response. 

“Oh, its just beginning.”

It had been a very long and difficult day for the detective, traipsing all over Osaka in an attempt to find that bloody brute of a detective, but he hadn’t had any luck thus far. Other than, of course, trailing Toyama Kazuha, whom he followed with dogged determination. Even when she tried to slip by him, he managed to keep track of her movements, and soon stepped up behind her in the busy mall, around the column where she probably thought she was safe, and whispered into her ear. “You can’t get rid of me that easily. Now, where is Hattori-kun?”
