Prologue: Riddler

"Shall we... begin?" The detective asked with his expression unchanging.

The girl just stood silently in front of him, staring and predicting what he will do.

The detective smiled.

"I shall lay out the mysteries that we have in front of us," he said with a smile, "Please draw your conclusions as I summarise the events that had occurred."

"A summary won't do any good. Wouldn't going into detail be much better?" The girl replied with a question. The detective laughed for a while before collecting himself.

"That's quite true. Well, I suppose that is wise," he said as he nodded.

"I'll like to hear the events from your side, Len-san. It would be interesting to see what everything would have looked like from the eyes of a detective."

"Don't worry Rin-chan. I will," Len said as he adjusted his long coat. With it, he truly looked like a detective. It was exactly how Sherlock Holmes was depicted in his stories...

The two looked at each other. Ironically, they were the only two in the large castle. Rain was pelting down on the windows, lighting signalling thunder, and the stars and the moon hidden by the dark, black clouds.

They were both trapped in a historical place where many murders had just occurred. However, they were not afraid. Their eyes locked gaze, neither one looking away.

Rin closed her eyes and smiled...

"Well then, shall we begin?"


MESSAGE from Niji:

Okay, so this is my second story. I'm thinking of making this a short one. This is a fan story based off the songs "Nazotoki" and "Nazokake". Even though I think the mystery story is made randomly, I think that there is a plausible theory to connect all the pieces together... Well, I just hope this works...

Oh yeah, this story will have 2 parts. I'm thinking of using the first part to detail the entire mysteries, and the second part to provide a theory or hypothesis to 'solve' the mystery. This is gonna be only just a fan work, so don't count on this to be correct. There are also some other people working on their own fan fiction of "Nazotoki". Go check them out too if you are interested. ;)
