Theme #44 – I want to help you
"I want to help you."
Heiji raised his eyebrow. "You're kidding, right?"
"No."
The Osakan detective crossed his arms over his chest. "How can you possibly help me?"
"I know more about this kind of thing than you do."
A short laugh left Heiji's mouth. "Why do you want to help me?" he asked derisively. This was too much.
"Because."
"That's not an answer."
"Fine, because I want you to get it back." There, that sounded reasonably honorable. "And because if you want it back, you'll need my help. You stand no chance of breaking in there on your own."
"I'm not breaking in."
"Fine, sneaking in isn't your thing." Gosh, this guy focused way too much on miniscule, unimportant details.
"Well, you can't help me."
The figure huffed and stalked off. Really, Kaitou though with a pout. Is it my fault that I want to help him sneak in so that I can see his face when he has to explain to Toyama-chan exactly why he's looking for an engagement ring in her bathroom trashcan at three o'clock in the morning?

snicker snicker Poor Heiji...
