Not too bad of an episode, all things considered.

The reason the books were going for so much money was obvious, especially since the victim just strolled in the bookstore and picked up a few random titles from the bargain bin without consideration. I didn't know about that light shining trick to see what had been written on a pad before, though, that was pretty neat!

Also, I wish we'd had more suspects, or at least more of a reason to suspect the woman who was looking for her father's book, because as it was, the episode was a little plain.

That thief got what he deserved.

A used book being sold for 2 grand, would have needed something very special about it, like being once owned by somebody incredibly famous, or super old and out of print, and even then it would still need to be a first edition or something to make it worth that much.

The fraudulent book listing also reminds me of some of the sketchy stuff floating around online that are seemingly ordinary items, or oversized items, being sold for an absurd amount that no one in their right mind would buy for, probably for human trafficking purposes in all likelihood. Other times, I've seen out-of-print books go for over a thousand dollars from scalpers to buy up all the inventory.

I'm glad the lady got her sentimental book back in the end.

I wonder what the "Thanks for 50 years" thing on their hats were from the preview for next week. I was worried for a second there thinking it was for this series, and thought to myself "This can't be that old...I can't be that old." Fortunately it's only been around for 30 years, give or take...so those hats must be for something else.

The book cipher was cool. Leave it to old man Tamaki to know books like the back of his hand.

Compared to the other Whistling Bookstore installments, I didn't find this one as appealing. And next week have Stakeout 4 with Chiba and Takagi again. Couldn't we get someone else doing the stakeouts?

On another note, Genta really should have thought that decision over a bit more. Welp I guess this gives the detective boys another adventure.
Notice: I read most manga in Japanese now so I'm not sure where you can read in English. Sorry in advance.

It looks like the hats are the 50th anniversary for the Beika amusement park.

I really liked today's episode, not for the content, but for its meaning. That means that if I find an overpriced item on eBay with a strange description, it means that I'll get a surprise. A smart way to do business. I knew about the marijuana one, but not about the stolen jewelry!
