Aoyama: I more or less think about them in advance (laugh).

Kosaka: What kind of conversations do Gin and Vodka have behind the scenes? Are they always talking about organization stuff?
Aoyama: I don’t really know, but I imagine they talk about jazz or something. Like, “That jazz bar was great,” or something (laugh).

Kosaka: How did you choose the cars driven by Furuya, Akai, and Professor Agasa?
Aoyama: Since Furuya is “Amuro,” I gave him the Gundam RX-7! As for Akai’s Mustang, I chose it because it’s a car that can match Chianti’s Viper in terms of speed. For Professor Agasa, I thought a cute Beetle would suit him well, so I went with that (laugh).

Kosaka: What do you think the Detective Boys would be doing for work if they grew up?
Aoyama: Mitsuhiko might become a teacher, since his parents are teachers. Genta would probably take over his dad’s liquor store… As for Ayumi-chan, maybe she’d work really hard and get into Hinatazaka (idol group) (laugh).

Kosaka: Is Akai’s sniper skill a natural-born talent?
Aoyama: …He may seem like it, but he’s actually been putting in quite a bit of effort behind the scenes (laugh).
