I keep seeing you mention how you’re reading these stories and it’s making me very happy, haha. We’ll start reading the extra stories from 本陣殺人事件 with the 金田一 interest group 
next week. We’re only 2 reading (+1 person who’s read these particular stories already) so we’re a very small group, but if you’d like to share impressions please feel free to come by. 
We’re also very interested in historical and political background info, haha.
(This is a link to the thread we’ll use)
If you’re not interested that’s fine too, of course. I’ll be quietly basking in the knowledge that someone else is/was just ‘reading the same thing’ anyway.
