Two eleven-year-olds were seated amidst a spread of poker cards and dice mixed in with sheets upon sheets of paper…
. . . . . . . . .
It didn't make sense.
It wasn't possible. But he'd calculated and calculated, double checked and everything! But every time he tested it…
He shook his head and glared at Kaito who was gathering the cards around them back into a neat stack and beginning to shuffle. The aspiring magician saw the look and raised an eyebrow.
"What?"
Shinichi's frown only deepened. "You have to be cheating or something!"
Indigo eyes blinked before taking on a wounded look. "Why ever would you say that?"
"Because it's impossible for you to win every single game just like that if you weren't," the smaller boy declared, waving a sheet of calculations at his companion like they were some kind of holy object with the power to ward off the evils of illogical occurrences. "These games are all based on chance. The probability that one person could win sixty three—"
"Sixty seven," Kaito corrected with a cheery grin.
"—sixty seven games in a row is so small it might as well be zero!"
"But it's not zero then, so obviously it's possible."
Shinichi huffed and turned back to his notepad, beginning a new set of calculations.
. . . . . . . . .
…"You were at it for a whole month," Kaito recalled, snickering. "And then you got all upset saying it didn't make sense. It was cute."
"Well, it didn't make sense," Shinichi retorted. "In fact, it still doesn't. It's not natural to be that lucky."
"Ah, but like you said yourself, the possibility does exist. Even the numbers agree on that."
