This is inspired by file 672.

Another short one-shot. I'm beginning to realize that I'm better at one-shots than chapter stories. Meh.

Words taken straight from the original dialogue will be italicized.

Midori: Ruth-sama does not, by any means, own Detective Conan. But she would just love to borrow Takagi-keiji for a day, though!

Me: AHEM! Moving on…

Never

"In this case, the trip to the hot springs will be cancelled…" I watch as your jaws drop in disbelief, the disappointment evident in your eyes. But you don't understand. I'm scared.

"It's alright! Go with him to the hot springs!"

No, I'm not scared of what will happen if we did go. I'm scared of what will happen to you before we go.

"At least he found the culprit!"

You'll be too excited.

"Don't be so narrow-minded!"

You'll want to catch the culprit faster.

"No! Personal feelings are not allowed in investigations!"

You'll make mistakes.

"I almost forgot…in this job, one mistake can cost you your life…"

After all, isn't that happened to Morimura-keibu? He wanted to prove himself better to his wife, so he rushed in without backup…

Why is it that every time you may be in danger, it's somehow similar to the deaths of all those other people?

Otou-san…Matsuda-kun

"So, I will take these kids back in my car, you go with Chiba-kun and the other to find Kibo!"

That's right. Chiba-kun and the others. They will prevent you from doing anything rash. I swear, if it's the last thing I do, I'll make sure that you'll never get yourself killed.

Never.

Owari

So, another one-shot based on another case, along with some small spoilers…

Anyways, review! No flames, though!
