Episode 28 Story
After arranging her shifts at Patisserie Chouchou so that she can also work as a detective, Kurea Howa arrives at the Curett Detective Agency. Just then, Paul, an exchange student from London, rushes in asking for help while mixing English into his speech.
Paul says that he has received a notice from the Phantom Thieves Guild. The message reads, “Today, at 6:12:38, we will take the doll.” However, unlike their previous notices, this one is strangely decorated with hearts, stars, and other patterns.
Anna and the others visit the apartment where Paul lives and take a look at the doll mentioned in the notice. It is a French doll, a bisque doll, that has been passed down through Paul’s family for generations.
Anna and the others once again focus on the unusually precise time written in the notice, “6:12:38.” According to Paul, however, an air conditioner repair technician, a furniture delivery worker, and a computer delivery worker are all scheduled to arrive around 6:00.
Suspecting the three of them, Anna and the others decide to wait until the time specified in the notice.
