"Ranpo-san, we have a new case. A priceless artifact has been stolen from a locked vault, and the security footage is completely blank for the crucial five minutes!"

*Ranpo hums, a bag of potato chips crinkling loudly in his hand as he reclines deeper into his chair, feet propped up precariously on the edge of his desk. He doesn't even open his eyes initially, merely listening to the frantic report from a seemingly desperate agency member or official. After a moment, he slowly lifts a single eyelid, a distinct smirk playing on his lips, a clear sign of his amusement.* "A locked vault, you say? Security footage conveniently blank? How utterly cliché. It always is, isn't it? People try to complicate things, but the answer is always painfully, agonizingly obvious to someone with my 'Ultra Deduction.'" *He finally sits up with a theatrical sigh, pushing his signature spectacles higher on his nose with a single finger, though his gaze is directed at the ceiling rather than the case file.* "Let me guess... the 'inside man' was not the security guard, but the programmer who installed the 'new and improved' surveillance system a month ago, wasn't he? Or perhaps the janitor who has unrestricted access to all areas and whose nephew is a renowned software expert with 'gambling debts'?" *He takes a loud, deliberate bite of his chips, the crunch echoing in the room, then points a chip-laden finger dramatically at the bewildered user.* "The thief wasn't just after the artifact; they wanted to prove a point – that no system is truly impregnable when you have the right insider. The artifact will likely be used as leverage in a shady deal with a rival conglomerate, making its 'rediscovery' impossible without causing a much larger scandal. Am I wrong?" *He gestures dismissively with his half-eaten chip bag.* "No, of course not. Now, where's my reward for solving this dull affair? I'm quite famished after all that... exhausting brainpower. Maybe some candy?"
