Me: Sorry about the delay for this one. I lost the document and it took me awhile to recover it. I revised over the story some and I changed Kaito's character some. Hope I got it right.
Disclaimer: I no own.
"Do they still have arranged marriages in Japan?" Ayumi asked him, blinking innocently.
"Arranged marriages?" Saguru blinked. "Well they're not as common but they do still have them in some parts of Japan."
"Oh, is that why that man isn't sad?" Ayumi smiled. "Because he had an arranged marriage?"
"You know what…I think you'll make a fine detective out of yourself," Saguru said, patting her head. Ayumi basked with silent pride and then Saguru turned to Ryousuke.
"Is it an arranged marriage?" he asked.
"Of course not!" Misaki protested.
"Could I speak to you alone?" Ryousuke asked Saguru quietly. Saguru raised an eyebrow and nodded, leading him off to the side but not before telling Ayumi to make sure that the suspects stayed.
"What is it?" Saguru said.
"It is an arranged marriage…but please don't tell Misaki," Ryousuke bowed his head. "You see, before I found out I was engaged to Kana, Misaki and I were dating… I was going to ask her to marry me but the eve of my question, we found out we were engaged," he sighed.
"And when did you break it off with Ms. Misaki?" Saguru asked.
"The night I was going to propose to her. Kana and I went out three weeks later, pretending that we were in love but we were nothing more then friends," Ryousuke said. "No- not even friends…acquaintances, perhaps."
Saguru nodded and glanced at the ride, wondering how his boyfriend was doing with the kids.
"Why do you even know how to get in here?" Kaito muttered to himself.
"Did you say something?" Genta asked.
"Me? No, nothing," Kaito made a face.
"Hey, what's that?" Mistuhiko asked, pointing to something silver glinting in the wall.
"Stay here," Kaito ordered.
"But he found it!" Genta complained.
"You just don't think we're capable of handling this ourselves, do you?" Mitsuhiko demanded.
"It's not that," Kaito shook his head, grinning at the two kids. "I do need to tell Saguru, that I did some of the work, don't I?"
"Well when you put it that way…" Genta said. Kaito sighed in relief. Good thing that he had gotten out of that one without a mess. Instead of walking straight across, he grabbed the railing of the roller coaster and swung himself to the other side.
'Whoever you are, you shouldn't have put mirrors in here,' Kaito smirked to himself. 'But what's…shoot!' "Get down!" he shouted, pulling at the knife stuck in the wall and tackling the two boys, shielding them with his back as the tracks exploded.
"Kaito!" Saguru shouted as he watched the attraction exploded.
"No!" Ran screamed. Kazuha held onto her as she tried to run towards the explosion.
"No, don't!" Ryousuke grabbed him as he tried to run towards the explosion. "It's too dangerous!"
"Let go of me!" Saguru shouted, "Dammit, let me go or I'll have you charged with halting the process of an ongoing investigation!" Ryousuke, surprised at the teen's outburst, dropped the teens arm but Ami grabbed onto his arm.
"Look!" she pointed at two figures, dragging a taller body.
"Is he alright?!" Saguru shouted, scooping Ami into his arms and running towards them.
"Mitsuhiko! Genta!" Ami cried. "Are you guys alright?!"
"Careful," Saguru grunted as he turned Kaito over to survey the damage. "Get the med-"
"No, I'm fine," Kaito groaned, sitting upright with a wince.
"Liar," Saguru muttered. "Your back's burnt."
"I'm fine," Kaito pressed. "Do your job. There were three mirrors forming a triangle... if we go there after the fire department gets done putting out the fire, I think we can find out where the positions were." Saguru frowned at him.
"I will go there. You will put on a show," Saguru muttered. "Go to the medics and get that wound healed, find out what you can in the mean time about the suspects."
"Here's the murder weapon," Kaito said, pulling it out of his shirt in a handkerchief.
"Good job," Saguru said.
"Do you think you know who did it?" Kaito asked.
"That's for me to know and you to find out, Watson,"
"Do not call me the name of your hawk!" Kaito groaned. "Go! Go do your thing, stupid detective! Isn't it always you who says, 'Wasting time is a crime of itself' or something like that?! Go!" Saguru rolled his eyes, giving him a quick kiss and standing up.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I have a theory," Saguru said. "And I need you all to stay in this area while we wait for the firemen to put out the crime scene."
Me: Hopefully that gave you a clue. Sorry but I'll cut it off there... we have to wait for the firemen to put out the fire.
Saguru: Has anyone been able to guess the murderer yet?
