Author's POV

Becoming "the greatest detective" wasn't quite easy

But he managed to grab the title and make it his

At least, half of Japan, knew him as the greatest detective.

To his surprises, there were the times, when even the greatest detective wasn't busy.

Sitting behind his desk, playing with his now empty ramune in his hand. It was a calm and normal day, the only loud sound in the office was coming from his always busy colleague who was typing on his laptop. The others were working as well or were told to do their job. But no matter how much he just sit there and do nothing, no one could tell him "why don't you do your work?" Or "get back to work" not even his certain colleague who seemed to never is done with works. He knew why everyone respect him and don't scold him for not doing work.

But sometimes, even his free times made him bored

He opened the door of his silver secret candy box, only to be met with two small packs of junk food. He grabbed them out of the box, observing them with his half closed eyes. He had a disappointed look on his face.

He turned to his colleague who had his eyes on his laptop "Kunikida, we're running out of snacks" he pouted "sorry, Ranpo-San. I'm quite busy right now, but i'll add it to list" he replied politely, not looking away from his laptop screen "hmm, i can't wait that long. Atsushi! Come over here" the greatest detective called out loud

Upon hearing his name, the albino turned around and walked towards his superior's desk "what is it, Ranpo-San?" He asked politely "I want you to buy me snacks" he said in his usual carefree tone "sure, so where's the list?" Atsushi smiled, waiting to receive the list since he was always given a list to buy "there is no lists!" The detective said loudly, his smile didn't fade

"Eh? Then how do i know what kind of snacks should i buy?" Atsushi asked a bit stressed "i'll leave it up to you~ buy the best candies" he said as he placed his hand in front of Atsushi's face "b-but what if you won't like the snacks i'll buy?" Atsushi asked with his same stressed yet kinda annoyed expression.

"There's no way candies be bad"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Walking down the street among the crowd, the albino finally entered a shop. Once his eyes saw the shelves of junk food, he walked towards it. His jaw dropped once seeing the amount of various kind of snacks.

But he had no clue which of them is better

"There's no way candies be bad"

He remembered his superior's words "well...if that's the case then..." He raised his hand to grab one, but he was stuck if he should buy cakes? Candies? Cookies?. He thought he just buy all the kind of candies on the shelf

The second question was, had he enough money?

His arm dropped along with his face in defeat "Ranpo-san never told me how many snacks i should buy" he pouted, looking at the upper part of the shelf, he recognized the cookies he bought his superior last time "yes! I found one" the top shelf was a bit too tall for him so he stood on his tip toes a bit. His fingers touched the cookie box, but didn't manage to grab it as it fell off of the shelf on the ground, few feet away from where he stood.
