VI: Hattori and Hakuba
It was a conference between Divisions One and Two. The subject of the meeting was an ongoing fraud investigation that had resulted in one murder. Saguru, wanting to gain a little more experience in areas besides Kaitou KID, had been invited into the meeting alongside Inspector Nakamori and Assistant Inspector Hasegawa. Inspector Megure was already in the room, along with Assistant Inspector Satou, Sergeant Takagi, Officer Kudou, and…
"Good Lord," Saguru mumbled to himself as he caught sight of the Osakan.
The Division One officers turned to greet the Division Two members who had just stepped into the room.
"Aw, hell," grumbled Heiji upon seeing the blond. Shinichi sent his friend a quizzical glance. "The blond ice prick is here."
Saguru bristled, though he inhaled deeply though his nose, held it for exactly three seconds, then exhaled. "Hattori-kun," he greeted diplomatically, "Kudou-kun."
"Hakuba-kun," Shinichi replied.
"What're you doing here? Aren't you supposed to be back in London?" asked Heiji testily.
Saguru settled himself in a seat primly. "I still have a phantom thief to catch," he answered, laying out his papers meticulously.
Heiji rolled his eyes while Shinichi grinned. "You're going to die of old age before you catch KID," the Osakan remarked in a parting shot as he wandered to his own seat.
Deep breaths, thought Saguru as he ground his teeth.
Author's Note: Ah, Saguru and Heiji… don't they love each other? Took me a little while to figure out a scenario where they would meet, and considering Heiji's specialty in murders and Saguru's in psychological profiling, why not have him work a fraud case and bring Heiji in? Division Two is actually supposed to work frauds, but Nakamori's sort of overrun it with his desire to catch KID. I hope you enjoyed it.
