The story first takes place somewhere in America. In which L is keeping his quarters. This is still the time in which he is still working in America and there was no Kira case yet.
"Please L, I beg you…" A voice pleaded.
"I don't accept cases like this" L answered.
"But you're the only one that can help us with this! L!" The voice begged.
"I'll cut the connection now, goodbye" L finally said and turned the conversation off.
"Was that case really that meaningless L?" Watari asked.
"A case like that could be easily solved by the police" L replied.
"Is that so…" Watari sighed.
"Hm? Is something wrong Watari?" L asked.
"Nothing is wrong L" Watari replied with a smile.
The phone suddenly rang, Watari received the call and looked at L.
"L, the U.S. government wants to talk to you" Watari said.
L got the phone from Watari "Hello" L greeted.
"L, we have a case that which you yourself can only solve it" The secretary of the president said.
"I will see… send me the data" L said.
A file appeared; L hurriedly opened the file and looked at it. The file was about a very genius detective by the alias of C and the government wants to find more about C.
"So you only want me to find more information about this genius detective that uses the initial C" L said.
"As you have said, we desperately want to find this person and make her help the government" The secretary told L.
"We believe that this person can also be a gifted person from Watari's orphanage because of his alias in which you and the other detectives use" The secretary said.
"Because I am from the orphanage… that's why you think I can freely find the true identity of this person?" L said in a doubting tone.
"Yes, I know you can find this person" The secretary said.
"Fine, I'll find this person for you" L said.
The conversation stopped and L looked at Watari with stern eyes.
"I don't think… you would help me with this right?" L said and sighed.
"I'm sorry L but I really can't help you with this…" Watari replied.
"It should be easier if you just give me the information… but… just easily giving information makes this case boring" L said.
While thinking of how to start finding the information of C, C herself is also preparing on how to keep her true identity hidden.
"I didn't think someone from the orphanage will try finding me" C said.
"I think it's because you were way too mysterious and he wanted to know more about your real identity" A voice from a computer monitor suddenly said.
"Hahahaha… I hope he'll give me lots of fun" C said.
"Don't underestimate L, you don't know what he can really do yet" The screen said.
"I'm not underestimating him… I'm just going to try on playing with him first" C giggled.
"Just don't overdo it…" The screen said.
"I will not… now, let the fun begin!!" C laughed out loud while finishing scrabble and getting 36 difficult words.
"Let's see who can find who first" L murmured to himself.
Let the battle of intuition and puzzles begin!!
