To fight the world's enemies, the two travelled around the globe for three years, unfolding dazzling adventures — until death parted them. One year after those tumultuous days, Kimizuka was in his third year of high school. Immersed in the lukewarm comfort called daily life, he was living as an utterly ordinary student. Then a client appeared before him. \"Are you the famous detective?\" His encounter with his classmate Nagisa Natsunagi was about to set a grand story linking past and present in motion once again.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"KADOKAWA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67625888416109,"sku":"HT-BD-4988111661296","price":96.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0997\/9700\/8749\/files\/hobbytiger-media-the-detective-is-already-dead-volume-1-regular-edition-01.jpg?v=1791318107","url":"https:\/\/www.hobbytiger.net\/products\/the-detective-is-already-dead-volume-1-regular-edition","provider":"HobbyTiger.net","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
