‘scuse me, but it seems that I kinda lost the beehive I was experimenting on. You see, I tripped and it went flying through that window… If you find a suspiciously angry sounding skep anywhere, don’t try and remove its plug. Just call me or try to kill it without making it open.

((What’s inside the beehive? Lots of bees enhanced with demonic cells, meaning that they’re about the size of hornets, regenerate for a limited amount of kills and don’t die after stinging somebody.))

Oh? And what would you have in mind for a ...returning favor?

I'm sure you have some interesting observations you could tell me.

Of course, only the honest answer is acceptable.

Of course.

Observations about you?

I'm sure you have something.

You're not what you're appearing to be.

That's pretty vague and could mean a million things.

Give me gold if you want to be paid in golden coins.

And you should at least have a starting amount before you barter.

Everyone isn't what they appear to be sometimes. It's basic human nature.

Ok, then how about this?

Your acting skills are rather poor. Nobody would believe that you are a little kid after interacting with you for a longer frame of time unless they'd have a reason to want and do so.

Hmmm, so that's how you took it.

You're a grand manipulator. The kind who likes to seem in control, but on the inside, you're a torrent of emotions. You have strong ideals, but there's also a very deep anger in there as well and a bitterness towards God. You say you don't believe, but something you have seen as 'God' has greatly betrayed your expectations.

[He shrugs, smirking.]

Grand manipulator is a bit too much to say, though it's flattering that you'd see me as such. Otherwise your guesses are very accurate and almost right. ...I'm impressed.

Is it?

I still have more. Want to hear?

Of course.

Well?

[He's not giving you another freebie.]

You first. I gave you more hints, after all.

I gave you plenty of hints.

Unless you haven't concluded that I'm doing this with a point in mind.

Well, I'm not sure. [Or is he?] Out of the two of us, you're the detective. I'm just the guy who tries to be smarter than he really is in order to survive yet another day.

Then let's go with that. Of my 'acting,' how does the role of the 'detective' play into it?

Hm. Care to rephrase the question? I'm not quite sure which part of it you want to know about. Is it the 'acting' or the 'detective' one?

You say I'm acting.

If that's true, then does that mean I'm lying about being a detective in your mind, or is it something else?

Lying about being a detective? No, I think that part's true. You show all the right symptoms to be one. You could actually say that it's the thing that gives you away.

So I'm a lying detective?

Are you not?

Now I never said you were right.

But it'd be interesting to know why you'd think a detective is lying.

Occupation makes no difference about whether a person is lying or being honest, Conan. I think we both know that. It may help them or give them away, but ultimately it's not that important.

[He pauses.]

You however, are like me. A person who manipulates. But you keep forgetting about it from time to time, which means that there's a certain amount of self-righteousness. There is a secret you want to keep no matter what, but it's also something you do not consider yourself at fault for.
