Kiyone smirked at the situation and grabbed Mihoshi by the hand, forcing her
past the scene. "Nice work."
I liked it too.
Kiyone, who had her firearm halfway drawn out, slowly placed it back in the
holster. Once convinced there would be no further {shootinh : shooting : shootin'}, she poked her
head in. Seeing only the captain present at his desk, she hesitantly
entered. Mihoshi took the opposite tact and entered immediately and without
a hint of fear. Unwilling to be upstaged by her partner, Kiyone entered with
her back straight and jaw thrust out, as though she hadn't been almost hit
by the blast.
Though "shootin'" seems a bit informal. :}p
Both she and Mihoshi entered the office and gave a crisp salute. "Captain
Drebbin. Officers Makabi and Kiramitsu reporting for special assignment.
Umm, your muzzle seems to be smoking, Sir."
Is Officer an alternative title to Detective?
"I heard about this interrogation technique called Good Cop, Bad Cop. I
think we should do that. I heard it works really well."
Kiyone considered that. Others had probably used it against Pheriton, but
Mihoshi was so blasted happy, her 'Good Cop' persona might get him to lower
his guard, while Kiyone knew she could act like a real bitch when she wanted
to; it was something all of her former boyfriends could agree upon. Since
she hadn't come up with any ideas of her own, Kiyone said, "It's worth a
shot."
Mihoshi began skipping in joy. "I knew you'd like that idea. I can't wait to
unleash my 'Bad Cop' act on him."
Well, there's always Bad Cop, Worse Cop.
Yep, inspired from the Old 'Police Squad/Naked Gun movies' from way back
when. And no, Kiyone won't meet a grizzly demise. She has to show up for the
sequal as she and Mihoshi go toe to toe with 'Gregarious' Spacey and the
'Unusual Suspects.' ^_^. Not quite as satisfied as I thought I would be when
I first came up with the idea of Mihoshi's 'Bad Cop' routine being better
than anyone, including Kiyone, would suspect. Once the PS elements showed
up, she became the straight man to all the punchlines even worse than usual.
It also reminded me of the hostage scene in Speed.
But it's Not Her Fault! (Someone had to say it.)
