rolls eyes Pfft, another overhyped release. Bet it’s just moe fluff.
Amber
yeah it probably is
snorts More like a cash-grab attempt than an actual work of art.
Amber
true story, can we go to the other aisles though I really want some new manga.
grinning mischievously Sure thing, let me lead the way! I know exactly where all the good stuff is hidden.
Amber
thanks
leads Amber to the manga section, scanning the shelves Alright, let's see what we've got here... Ah, here we go!
Amber
.oOo.Walking over to him while he scans the shelves
raises an eyebrow at a particularly obscure title Huh, this one slipped my mind. It's called "Inferno of Passion." Sounds interesting, doesn't it?
Amber
?
chuckles Oh, don't worry. It's not as kinky as the title suggests. It's actually a psychological thriller with a twist.
Amber
sounds right up my alley.
grabs the manga and flips through the pages Yeah, it's got all the elements of a gripping story - suspense, betrayal, and a dash of romance.
Amber
perfect~!
notices a rare edition on the shelf Hey, Amber, check this out! It's a limited edition of "Demon Slayer." Looks like a treasure trove for collectors.
Amber
woah! that’s pretty awesome~!
<Amber decides to purchase the rare edition of 'Demon Slayer' for $500, unaware that it was stolen from a local collector.>
Amber
well maybe that was a little expensive but it looks beautiful.
raises an eyebrow Uh, Amber, are you sure about that purchase? That manga looks like it's been through a war zone.
Amber
oh I’ll just buy another~!
smirks Another eye-catching purchase, eh? You do have a knack for finding the most intriguing things. But hey, at least it'll be a great conversation piece on your shelf. Just make sure to display it proudly, so everyone knows how much of a manga connoisseur you are.
Amber
lol~!
pretends to dramatically gasp Oh my god, Amber, you didn't just buy a rare edition, you bought a hot potato! That manga is stolen goods, my friend.
Amber
…what.? No way~!
crosses arms and leans closer to Amber Trust me, I've seen enough shady deals in this city to recognize a stolen item when I see one.
Amber
..well if that’s true then why would anyone steal it~!
leans back and smirks Well, my dear Amber, sometimes people steal things not because they need them, but because they can use them as leverage.
Amber
mhm~!
winks at Amber Lucky for you, I have a few tricks up my sleeve. Don't worry, I'll get you out of this sticky situation. But first, we need to return that stolen manga and make sure it lands in the hands of its rightful owner. Are you up for some detective work?
Amber
oh ok sure!
pulls out a magnifying glass from his pocket and puts it on his forehead dramatically Alright, detective Amber, let's start by gathering some evidence. examines the manga closely Hm... I wonder if there are any hidden clues on this cover.
Amber
maybe~?
smirks Maybe? Oh, Amber, we detectives don't use maybes. We use facts. carefully lifts the manga cover, revealing a hidden note tucked inside Aha! Look at this, my dear Watson. It seems like we've stumbled upon our first clue. unfolds the note and reads it aloud "Meet me at the abandoned warehouse by midnight. Bring the package. No cops." Hmm, what do you think, detective Amber? Should we investigate further?
Amber
what if it’s dangerous~!
puts a hand on Amber's shoulder reassuringly Don't worry, Amber. Safety is my middle name. We won't go anywhere near danger without proper precautions.
Amber
ok..I trust you~
<Amber and Kaito decide to investigate the abandoned warehouse, leading them into a dangerous encounter with a group of criminals.>
Amber
why would they want the manga~!
grins slyly Well, my dear Amber, sometimes people collect things not just for their monetary value, but for their power. That manga might hold some secret information or a hidden code that these criminals are after.
Amber
well if that’s the case then why not just break into your house and get it? Why they gotta get it form the comic book store~?
leans closer to Amber, speaking softly Ah, my dear Watson, it's all about the thrill of the chase, you see. These criminals enjoy the game, the danger, and the challenge of getting what they want without leaving any trace. And for them, breaking into my house would be too predictable. But going through a comic book store? Now that's a risk worth taking. It keeps them on their toes, you know? winks at Amber
Amber
hehe I suppose~!
stands up abruptly, pointing a finger at Amber Alright, detective Amber, it's time to put those quick wits of yours to good use.
Amber
staring intently at Kaito What's the plan, detective Kaito?
smirks and twirls his finger The plan, my dear Watson, is simple yet brilliant.
Amber
raising an eyebrow Alright, I'm listening. Let's hear it.
we hack into the security cameras surrounding the abandoned warehouse. This gadget should do the trick.
