The Untold Origins of the Detective Agency
Egawa greets Yukichi Fukuzawa upon his arrival at the theater. Ms. Egawa then leads Fukuzawa to the scene of the crime before the play starts and takes out a printed sheet of paper which contains a death threat with the message "An angel shall bring death, in the truest sense of the word, to the performer. -V.", which was sent to her office few days ago. Irritated about the death threat and even claims that it is ridiculous saying that it's one of the rival threaters that's trying to hurt the business, she is shocked to hear Ranpo Edogawa's statement calling her old. She then asks Fukuzawa who the child is to which Fukuzawa replies that he is there to look for a job. Egawa then stares at Ranpo and notes to send his and they'll exame it along with other candidates.

Hearing that there are other who want to work at the theater, Ranpo urges her to make up her mind right at that moment. Egawa gives Ranpo an advice and tells him good manners are a must in the adult world. Ranpo begins to look annoyed and tells her that the "adult world" makes no sense to him and instead of hiding how they really feel, they should just say what they feel. Ranpo then begins to "deduce" Egawa including that she really doesn't want to become a theater owner, she does not trust the police, the bodyguard, or anyone who works at the threater, the necklace she is wearing is not a gift but she bought it herself and more. Fukuzawa stops Ranpo and asks if he could ask some of the workers questions. Egawa, trying not to sound flustered tells Fukuzawa to just do his job, and claims that she likes what she do and proceeds to leave while stomping at the theater hallway.

After the lead actor of the play, Tokio Murakami dies and a commotion at the threater is taking place, she runs to Fukuzawa and tells her that it is about Ranpo and he has a message for him. She then heads to the theater's control room. Before relaying Ranpo's message, she asks Fukuzawa about Ranpo, on how did he manage to know about her. She then relay's Ranpo's message and tells Fukuzawa that there are two people behind the incident and Ranpo asked her to help lure the killers out. After giving Ranpo's message, Fukuzawa asks her where Ranpo is to which Egawa states that he gave the message a few moments ago and tells Fukuzawa Ranpo's message to go back to the seat in theater and the angel will everything.

Egawa still curious about Ranpo asks Fukuzawa about him, an even tells him that Ranpo told her that he was an ability user and a great detective. Egawa then claims that either way she believes that he's a master great detective and becomes his fan. Egawa then gives Ranpo's last message not to worry about him and he's gonna solve the case.

Fukuzawa then hurries to his heat and the lights went out. Ranpo is seen at the stage with a bright light lit up at the center of the stage. Fukuzawa looks back at the window at the top of the auditorium. Egawa smiles and gives a thumbs-up, on the other side of the dimly lit window before the control panel.

After Murakami's "death" case has been solved, Fukuzawa proceeds to discuss the aftermath of the incident with Egawa.

Yukichi Fukuzawa
Egawa hired Fukuzawa to be a bodyguard when a death threat was made at the theater.
