So it makes sense that one way Yasu would use to try to get Battler to remember their time reading mystery novels is to... stage a mystery for him.
The context of my post was that a detectives are usually near a place a murder, thus kinda inviting it. By known amateur detective I mean something of the likes of Miss Marple who although doesn't fit the traditional detective mold like Holmes or Poirot, is still known be a great sleuth.
