"You're gonna keep running like that, mate?"

Ryosuke kept running, as a certain British Detective on Vacation was chasing after him. And his attempt to stab him was done for, as he was able to disarm him...

Pushing through people, toppling shelves, tables, and even going through traffic... And yet, he was able to catch up... As if he knows his tactics.

"Don't you think that you're wasting your time, mate?" The man added as he kept chasing him.

"Go away, damn it!!!" Ryosuke yelled as he struggled to gain distance, as somehow, he was able to slowly close in on him.

And the fact that he also managed to deflect his knife with little effort was enough to make him think twice and attempt to escape...

...

"They're saying, 'Since Ai Hoshino nearly got killed twice, one with a cost of a Doctor's Death, and another with your intervention and skills. We've decided to allow you to work with us, and put an end to the Idol Killer.' Looks like your vacation in Japan is replaced with your first International case, Holmes-Sama." A Japanese Translator replies to Crofton.

"... Good lord... I wish Dr. Watson was with me..." Crofton muttered.

"Ehehe... like every Holmes... He or She will always need a Dr. Watson..."

...

"... What was she saying... Hiroshi?" Crofton asked Hiroshi Iwasaki... As he doesn't understand Japanese, Miyako Saitou.

As he became his temporary Dr. Watson...

Hiroshi sighed, understanding that Crofton was from the UK, not Japan, and translated for him... "... She's saying that, 'I'm worried that some monster would do it again. And I might have to look for an another place to keep her safe, and not to tell anyone of the address...' Well?"

"... In that case, we're in a race against the clock, and our suspect is already one step ahead of us."

...

"They're saying that the Police will do what they can to find him... He's like a ghost..." Hiroshi.

"We do have his Last Name from our... 'Guest'... Ryosuke, is it?" Crofton replied as Hiroshi and the Local Police Chief were having Coffee, Crofton had a Cup of Black Tea instead.

"... Ahem... I mean... You literally threatened to Waterboard him with Hot Tea, instead of Water... Along with an 800 Volt on his body...?" Japanese Police Chief, with some fluency in English.

"Sometimes, you have to use psychology to work," Crofton replied, after taking a sip of his tea.

"... Yeah... along with one rumor of using an enraged monkey to tear the misogynist's-" Hiroshi was about to say it...

"Let's leave it ambiguous..." The Police Chief sounded disgusted, that Crofton was willing to resort to underhanded and disgusting tactics to get the evidence he wanted...

...

Dear Watson...

I did show you a few of the Japanese's Delights, along with some of their landmarks. And I'm glad that you'd want to go to Japan with me... And I will do so next year or when the opportunity arises...

Though, I wish that I've also brought you here... Because this just happened unexpectedly, and now I'm a temporary Investigator...

While I was about to enter my temporary apartment... I noticed a man who was carrying some white roses and a knife in front of my neighbor's door. Who is Japan's Biggest Idol, Ai Hoshino, from the Ichigo Production, Inc. The B-Komachi that she was in...

When he realized that I knew his intentions. He tried to stab me, but I disarmed him. And he then runs like a coward he is. And so, I give chase. To which, I've managed to apprehend him. And then saw the bigger picture.

This Idol Killer has done this, with the past Idol, Airi Himekawa when he was young. And likely uses an obsessive fan to avoid getting his hands dirty, but I denied him of Ai's life.

It seems my suspect is Kamiki, by the Japanese's First Name... Is a smart one, on his murder plans... But he doesn't know me yet...

While I'll show him what a Family of the Greatest Detectives of the UK is... I best not to underestimate him...

Even I know nothing of his face... And I really wish that you were here to help me... But for now... I'll have to make do with a local who can speak and understand English well...

With regards, Crofton Holmes.
