A/N: Goodmorning everyone, this is just the foreword for a new fanfiction I am currently writing.
The Adventures and Memoirs of Naoto Shirogane - a story series based as a tribute and written in the style of Sherlock Holmes. With Sherlock as Naoto, obviously and Souji as Watson-like, in a modern day setting, with samey kind of speech patterns, etc.
When I glance over my files and records of the cases from 2012 till now, I am faced by so many which present strange and interesting features that it is no easy matter to know which one to choose and which to leave. While some, already, have gained publicity through the papers and the internet, and others have been left untold. None of the outlets which, that I have seen, offered a field for the peculiar qualities which my friend possessed in such high standard a degree, have shown to illustrate this object in its purest light.
Some as narratives, would have beginnings with an ending, others of partial denouement to which surmise and conjecture had been lain upon as its finale rather than logic and proof that was so dear to her. And the failures to some extent - had the most valuable of experience my friend would ever receive.
It begins with this document, that I, with her permission will show you the stories and adventures, which we had both shared since our leave from Inaba. While partially sensationalist as it might be, according to her, I write as an unofficial observer and biased reporter of my friend's methods and moments. Though her methods might seem no less than extraordinary, her remarkable ability to deduce from logic the most vaguely sounded theory into a working hypothesis was her single most powerful weapon of her mind. And so, to this I present to you the case book.
Where I shall report to the truest, with no string of yarn left unspun, about the tales of my friend and colleague - Naoto Shirogane.
