“Daisuke, not everything can be a short cu-” he pauses, turning around when he realizes what the other is doing. He frowns a bit and shakes his head. Somewhat of a chuckle leaves his lips. “And what will we do with all the free time we have if HEUSC does all the heavy lifting for us? Stare at each other until it figures out the source?” of course he’s being a little more dramatic, but he’s yet to really understand the appeal of using HEUSC day in and day out unless they’re on a time crunch. He breathes a small, defeated smile and comes back around to the other.
A heavy hand comes to lay over Daisuke’s shoulder. He gives it a push, ushering them back where they came now that the deed’s been done. “Fine, you win, but I’m saying no to the motorcycle. You can’t drive,” Haru mumbles, quirking a knowing brow at his partner. His hand slips away, favoring the comfort of his pocket. Though, instead of beelining straight for the dormitories from where they originally came, Haru dips into a different direction.
“There’s no harm in at least enjoying the place, right? The weather’s nice. Better than the office,” at this point, he doesn’t want to spend the rest of the night laying out on the uncomfortable mattress of their shared room. “Let’s just take a detour and then we’ll go over the recordings of the mess hall.”
❝ As long as HEUSC is accessible I see no point in not utilizing it, ❞ Daisuke responded, having been seemingly ushered with a heavy, yet guiding hand towards the spot where they had first lingered about, giving his partner a wordless glance once Katou had shot down his suggestion of acquiring a motorcycle for their daily class endeavors. Perhaps the elder couldn’t handle the speed in which he drove? It paled in comparison to other plans he had in mind when it came to solving their current mission. If only he could utilize HEUSC to it’s full capacity.
Footsteps led them into a new direction as the young detective followed along, curiosity peaking as he awaited for further instruction from Katou. ❝ You make it sound like you live there..., ❞ Daisuke commented, recalling their office back at the headquarters. It did get rather uncomfortable in there, considering how the air conditioning would break down once in a while. To Daisuke, Katou seemed like the type to be a hermit, especially to his job and the ‘art of being a true detective’.
Just as Haru was speaking, Daisuke immediately focused his attention onto one of the students that was entering Mess hall after being signaled by HESUC, careful scans indicating something suspicious as it zoomed in on the unsuspecting student who seemed to be gathered with particular friends.
❝ HESUC...Snap a screenshot for further analysis, ❞ Daisuke prompted, turning to Katou who seemed to be acting quite leisurely despite their mission. ❝ HESUC picked up on some suspicious traces from one of the students entering Mess Hall just now. We should get there and check it out unless you’re still insist on being so casual , ❞ Daisuke said, tilting a chin towards the direction of the exit.
