His first thought after finding out that he is "gifted" is to protect people and bring truth to light.

He had instinctively always cared about being honest and truthful. It shows up in how one of the things that made him not fit in with others was that he was blunt(translation: didn't lie and was authentic).

Even though he made comments saying he is disinterested in investigating a case sometimes like when Atsushi went missing. He always ended up helping with it and I think in Atsushi's case it was so that he would be rewarded by praise from Fukuzawa. 😂

He had incorporated Fukuzawa's sense of justice into his framework of morality, like when he trusted Fukuchi just because he believes in Fukuzawa's sense of justice as that quality of Fukuzawa was what gave him a home and emotional support.

When Yosano was rescued and Ranpo was escorting her. He tried his best to comfort her and gave her a place where she would feel safe and at home.

the greatest painter in the land Yoshihide: actually that would be the christian Hell. in the buddhist Hell you suffer not for eternity but for millions or perhaps trillions of years (as counted in the land of the living) until you are cleansed of your negative karma

me: yoshihide sir they are misgendering me in the tags. theyre calling me a guy yoshihide

the greatest painter in the land Yoshihide: where is my daughter. why won't the grand Lord Horikawa show me my daughter
