[Oh. He's always seen his ability as a support, to boost up the truly impressive people. He's not used to getting praise for his.]
It's why I'm very picky about who I work with. I have to trust those people whose powers I unlock won't misuse them.
[He pauses though, considering how to talk about Ranpo.]
Ranpo is... [His son, but he'll never say that in as many words.] ...many years ago, I found a young boy who had an amazing gift for solving mysteries. If he had been at that trial Saturday, he could have taken one look at the clues and instantly picked out the culprit. That's what his ability is: seeing the connections between objects and people and drawing correct assumptions based on that. Super Deduction.
But he sees the world in a different way from you and me, and he can be naive at times. From the moment I figured out he had an ability, I could see exactly how unscrupulous people would use him. So I took him in. The thought being, if I kept an eye on him, then I could chase away anyone who meant ill.
