Kindaichi Shounen no Ippaku Futsuka Shouryokou

Hajime Kindaichi may appear to be an ordinary high school student, but he possesses a brilliant deductive mind inherited from his legendary grandfather, Kousuke Kindaichi. Over time, this genius-level reasoning ability has allowed him to unravel a staggering number of highly complex and difficult cases. Yet, despite his extraordinary intellect, Hajime struggles with a far more personal challenge: navigating his feelings for his childhood friend, Miyuki. He desperately wants to grow closer to her, but his romantic ambitions are constantly derailed by a bizarre stroke of misfortune. No matter where the two of them go, a terrible crime inevitably unfolds, forcing Hajime back into the role of detective and ruining any chance at a normal outing. Determined to finally break this frustrating cycle, Hajime gathers his courage and invites Miyuki on a brief one-night getaway. Reassuring himself that nothing could possibly go wrong during such a short trip, he sets out with unwavering optimism that this vacation will finally give them the peaceful time together he has always wanted. As a comedic spin-off of the acclaimed mystery series Kindaichi Case Files, this manga playfully explores the hilarious contrast between Hajime's unmatched investigative brilliance and his spectacularly unlucky love life.
