{At Hakase’s house. The teens are sitting around the living room.}
HattoriHeiji: Achoo! *rubs nose*
HattoriHeiji: Ugh. I've got a terrible cold...
ToyamaKazuha: Oh, Heiji, are you getting sick?
HattoriHeiji: *is currently sitting on the round bench thing*
EdogawaConan: I'm sure Hakase has some cold medicine around here somewhere....
* EdogawaConan goes to try and look in the medicine cabinet.
* EdogawaConan is too short to reach the medicine cabinet.
MouriRan: I wander if it's a detective thing... Shinichi seems to get colds a lot too
HattoriHeiji: Idiot, No one's gonna get colds from being a detective. *dry look*
EdogawaConan: Ah...I don't think it has anything to do with being a detective, Ran-neechan....
EdogawaConan: Ojisan doesn't get colds very often...
MouriRan: Is that so? *touches chin*
MouriRan: I guess not...
EdogawaConan: \Though I suppose maybe it could have something to do with actually being a good detective....\
ToyamaKazuha: Heiji doesn't get sick very often, but when he does, he gets really sick
EdogawaConan: Then we better find him some medicine, right?
HattoriHeiji: Yeah... *looks over to Conan* Find anything?
EdogawaConan: It should be up here...*indicates cabinet* but I can't reach.
MouriRan: Oh, I'll get it. *smiles and walks over* Let's see... Oh, this must be it! *takes out a small clear container*
* EdogawaConan can't see the container, but trusts Ran.
MouriRan hands container to Heiji
MouriRan: Here you go.
HattoriHeiji: Thanks, neechan. *takes a pill*
MouriRan: Maybe we should get some soup... Hakase, do you have any?
* HattoriHeiji gives her a dry look. \I'm not a kid... I don't need soup to make me feel better\
EdogawaConan: \Probably not....it's not the sort of thing Haibara's likely to make, and Hakase can't cook any better than I can.\
AgasaHakase: Unfortunately, no *chuckling nervously*
* HaibaraAi comes into the living room
MouriRan: Let's go get soup anyway, ne, Kazuha-chan?
ToyamaKazuha: Yeah!
ToyamaKazuha: You can make your special homemade soup Ran-chan!
MouriRan: We'll be right back, Conan-kun. *smiles*
EdogawaConan: \Probably help more if his girlfriend makes it. *mental evil grin*\
EdogawaConan: OK!
* EdogawaConan climbs up on the couch next to Hattori.
MouriRan: Yeah. You will feel much better, I promise!
MouriRan: I'd made Shinichi some, but he's never around. *mumbles and walks out the door*
ToyamaKazuha: We won’t be gone long, Heiji
HattoriHeiji: Yeah yeah...
* ToyamaKazuha follows Ran out the door
EdogawaConan: Feeling any better yet?
HattoriHeiji: A little... I'm starting to feel really warm actually...
HaibaraAi: Did you give him anything?
* HattoriHeiji tugs at his collar.
EdogawaConan: Really warm? A fever? That's not good...
HattoriHeiji: Neechan brought me this bottle of pills. *shows bottle to Haibara*
* HaibaraAi stares at the bottle, then gasps, eyes wide
HattoriHeiji: It's weirder than that... *clutches chest*
AgasaHakase: What is it Ai-kun?
HaibaraAi: Idiot...
HaibaraAi: Do you know what this is?!
HattoriHeiji: Oi... *falls to the ground* I feel like... guh!
EdogawaConan: Hattori!
* EdogawaConan is panicking.
HattoriHeiji: O- Oi, Kudou... Isn't this what you feel?!
HaibaraAi: It wasn’t medicine! It was another prototype drug for the APTX!
HattoriHeiji: Then... I'm... Guuh...
HattoriHeiji: *starts shrinking*
HattoriHeiji: AAAAAAAAHHHH!
EdogawaConan: If it's a cure, why is making him shrink??
* HaibaraAi glances at the bottle again
HaibaraAi: No...
HaibaraAi: It was the actual drug...
EdogawaConan: Haibara!
EdogawaConan: Do something!
EdogawaConan: WHAT???
* HattoriHeiji is lying on the floor panting. Slowly sits up. "Then why am I shrinking?!"
HaibaraAi: What do you expect me to do?
EdogawaConan: I don't know!
* EdogawaConan is panicking.
HattoriHeiji: How could you remake the drug?!
HaibaraAi: He could die...but like us, he has a small chance of survival...
EdogawaConan: More than that how could you leave it unlabeled like that?!?!
* HaibaraAi looks down
HattoriHeiji: Yeah... How lucky was that... Why was it in the medicine cabinet?!
EdogawaConan: Haibara, you have got to find a better place to keep your experiments!
AgasaHakase: Now now...
EdogawaConan: First the incident with
EdogawaConan: Hakase! Keep the girls out of here!
AgasaHakase: Ah, right!
* AgasaHakase about to leave the room
HattoriHeiji: At least chisaineechan can find the antidote now that she has the original… But what am I supposed to do in the mean time?!
HaibaraAi: So far I haven't been able to make a full antidote; I thought remaking the drug would give me a better clue...
EdogawaConan: *sigh* I don't know...
* HattoriHeiji pulls up the sleeves and pant legs on his clothes
EdogawaConan: You OK now, Hattori?
EdogawaConan: Heh. We're the same size again. *tosses his glasses on a nearby table*
HattoriHeiji: I still feel a bit ill, short, and ticked off...
EdogawaConan: Yeah.
AgasaHakase: Her method couldn't have been too far off though, I always told you Shinichi, that having a sample of the drug would allow me to study it and maybe create an antidote; that is, before Ai-kun arrived.
* AgasaHakase leaves room
* EdogawaConan sits down next to Hattori for a moment, then jumps up, thinking of something.
EdogawaConan: Let's at least get you into something that fits a little better....
HattoriHeiji: Yeah, that'd be good... *grumbles at his huge clothes*
* EdogawaConan goes to find something of Conan's that Hattori can wear.
* HaibaraAi is standing, her arms hugging herself in regret
HattoriHeiji: What are we supposed to tell the girls when they arrive? That Heiji had a case he had to do and never comes back?!
* HaibaraAi doesn't respond
HaibaraAi: I'm...sorry...I made a mistake...
* HattoriHeiji sits up against the bench.
HattoriHeiji: Yeah. I know... *looks at Haibara* At least I was apart of that small percentage.
HattoriHeiji: Someone has to protect that idiot...
* EdogawaConan comes back in, arms full of clothes.
* HaibaraAi would normally have smirked, but is feeling no humor whatsoever.
EdogawaConan: Here. *shoves clothes at Hattori* C'mon, you can change in the bathroom over here.
HattoriHeiji: Right. *pulls out a shirt and pants.*
HattoriHeiji: Good thing we are the same size, right?
EdogawaConan: Yeah. *wry smile*
EdogawaConan: Go. We'll figure the rest out later.
HattoriHeiji: Right. *walks into the bathroom to change.*
EdogawaConan: *sits in front of the bathroom door* If we tell the girls you left on a case, Ran'll yell at us for letting you leave when you're obviously sick. *thinking out loud*
HaibaraAi: So...what do we tell them?
HaibaraAi: And how do we explain him?
EdogawaConan: I'm almost tempted to tell them the truth about what happened, since no one is after you, but....
HattoriHeiji: Then they'd find you suspicious
EdogawaConan: Exactly.
EdogawaConan: And I have no idea how to explain a chibified Hattori.
HattoriHeiji: I was thinkin' that I was called on a case here in
HattoriHeiji: But... Then that'd make Kazuha worry. *opens the door.*
HattoriHeiji: And there's no way I could tell my folks. Oyaji would beat me up for sure...
EdogawaConan: *shakes head, looking up at Hattori* Ran would yell at us all for letting you leave when you're obviously sick.
* EdogawaConan stands up.
EdogawaConan: I suppose we'd better figure something out before the girls get back.
* HaibaraAi keeps staring at the ground, then at the bottle in her hand.
* HaibaraAi suddenly remembers something.
HaibaraAi: Chotto!
EdogawaConan: What?
HattoriHeiji: What? *looks at her*
HaibaraAi: If I recall, I don't think I was able to fully recreate the drug, in a way, it's also a prototype, so maybe...
HaibaraAi: Maybe it won't have the full effect...
HattoriHeiji: Right, like the prototype antidote.
HattoriHeiji: That'd be great, then I wouldn't be shrunk.
EdogawaConan: So it'll wear off? Or at least it might wear off?
EdogawaConan: About how long?
* HattoriHeiji feels bad that he said that
* EdogawaConan ignores the comment, understanding how Hattori feels.
HattoriHeiji: It'd probably only last 24 hours…
HattoriHeiji: Right?
HaibaraAi: That's a possibility. Seeing as I made it from the same amount as the 24 our pill, that's probably our best bet.
EdogawaConan: *shakes head* The first time I took the antidote, it lasted a bit longer than that...
HaibaraAi: Different measurement of ingredients...
* EdogawaConan is ruefully recalling the play and the restaurant.
EdogawaConan: Ah...
EdogawaConan: Well, if that's the case then we only need to hide you for about a day...
EdogawaConan: Maybe Hakase could pretend to take you to Araide-sensei's clinic?
HattoriHeiji: Yeah... Not sure how I can get Kazuha to back off though...
* AgasaHakase sees Ran and Kazuha coming back
AgasaHakase: *to himself* Oh dear, I hope they've come up with a solution. *runs up to stall them*
HattoriHeiji: Oi... are they back already?! Damn... What do we do?!
EdogawaConan: Hakase! Can you tell them you're going to take Hattori to the clinic or something?
HattoriHeiji: Wouldn't that just make them worry more and demand to come along?
EdogawaConan: Hattori, you'll be a new transfer student from school who stopped by to get homework or something, OK?
EdogawaConan: You have a better plan?
HattoriHeiji: *shamefully shakes his head*
EdogawaConan: Then we go with this.
HattoriHeiji: ! Kazuha will definitely recognize me
EdogawaConan: Then we better find you a disguise....
HattoriHeiji: I at least need something to cover my hair
HaibaraAi: Especially because of his distinctive dark skin and the fact that the older Hattori-kun is gone...
EdogawaConan: What about the extra tracking glasses? Or a hat or something?
EdogawaConan: He's not the only dark-skinned person I know...
HattoriHeiji: Shouldn't I just hide upstairs?
EdogawaConan: If you'd rather...
EdogawaConan: But are you really going to hide all day?
* HattoriHeiji sulks
HattoriHeiji: I guess not...
HattoriHeiji: I guess both, anything to make me look different!
* HaibaraAi looks out the window.
HaibaraAi: They're getting closer
EdogawaConan: Here. *hands Hattori his extra glasses*
* HattoriHeiji puts on Conan's glasses
HattoriHeiji: These things are huge
EdogawaConan: Yeah....they were originally my dad's glasses.
EdogawaConan: I grabbed them to keep Ran from recognizing me, and had to pop the lenses out...
HattoriHeiji: \No wonder...\
EdogawaConan: Haibara? Do you have a hat you could lend him?
* HaibaraAi nods and goes to get it
* EdogawaConan takes Hattori's discarded clothes and puts them in the laundry.
EdogawaConan: Can't wear your own hat.
AgasaHakase: Ah! Ran-kun and Kazuha-kun! I'm going to take Hattori-kun to the clinic.
MouriRan: Clinic?
* MouriRan blinks
ToyamaKazuha: Why? Has Heiji gotten worse?
AgasaHakase: Well, we don't want his cold getting worse
* AgasaHakase gives a reassuring smile
MouriRan: Poor Hattori-kun...
* HaibaraAi comes back with the blue cap Conan gave that she never ended up giving back.
EdogawaConan: You need a name, too...
ToyamaKazuha: I will come with you then....
HaibaraAi: Now you just need to think of an alias...
EdogawaConan: If I'm going to introduce you as a classmate...
MouriRan: Yes, me too!
HattoriHeiji: Uh... what about Niiku?
EdogawaConan: Niiku?
EdogawaConan: Ah....I get it.
EdogawaConan: And a last name?
AgasaHakase: No no! It's fine! Actually, he says he doesn't want you worrying about him.
HattoriHeiji: Haven't thought about that...
MouriRan: Ne~ Hakase~ Is Conan-kun with him?
HattoriHeiji: Hell, yours was easy! Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and Edogawa Ranpo...
EdogawaConan: Mine came off the bookshelf.
EdogawaConan: You have a little more time to think.
EdogawaConan: So think of something.
AgasaHakase: Besides, we're going to make him lie down, so there won't be room in the car.
AgasaHakase: Oh, no, Conan's in the house...
ToyamaKazuha: I could sit in the front seat
HattoriHeiji: Lee... One of the authors anyway
HattoriHeiji: It's just for 24 hours, right? *tugs the hat on his head*
AgasaHakase: Oh well, Ai-kun was going to sit there, she'd make a decent nurse you know. *laughing nervously*
ToyamaKazuha: I really would feel better if I went to the clinic with him
* HattoriHeiji sigh
HattoriHeiji: Akechi would sound better...
HattoriHeiji: Akechi Niiku
EdogawaConan: Akechi Niiku it is, then,
EdogawaConan: You transferred to Teitan Elementary last week.
EdogawaConan: We have a project, and Kobayashi-sensei assigned groups of 3.
* MouriRan is searching for Conan
EdogawaConan: OK?
HattoriHeiji: right.
EdogawaConan: So you're here to work on the school project with Haibara and me.
* ToyamaKazuha follows Ran in her search
* AgasaHakase silently worries, wondering how he will convince Kazuha not to come.
MouriRan: I'll ask Conan-kun about Hattori-kun. *smiles* Don’t worry, Kazuha-chan! He'll be fine!
ToyamaKazuha: *smiling back at Ran* I hope so....I have the feeling that something is wrong.
EdogawaConan: Haibara, we should get our books, so that it at least looks like we're going to work on a project...
* EdogawaConan grabs a few random books from a nearby bookshelf and sets them out on the table.
* AkechiNiiku opens one up in his lap
* HaibaraAi grabs her backpack from wherever it was.
* EdogawaConan sits down next to Hattori and grabs a book at random, letting it fall open in his lap.
MouriRan: Conan-kun... *opening the door* ah! Conan-kun! *smiles at him*
* EdogawaConan looks up.
EdogawaConan: Ah, Ran-neechan!
* AkechiNiiku panics
AkechiNiiku: Uh... Uh Hi... *slightly waves*
EdogawaConan: We were just getting started on the project for school...Hakase was going to take Heiji-niichan to Araide-sensei's, just to be sure.
EdogawaConan: This is Akechi Niiku-kun; he's a classmate of ours.
* ToyamaKazuha notices the kids sitting at the table
* AgasaHakase walks in from behind the girls.
EdogawaConan: He just transferred here last week, and Kobayashi-sensei assigned the groups for us...
ToyamaKazuha: Hello, Niiku-kun
AkechiNiiku: Un... Nice to meet you...
* HaibaraAi narrows her eyes.
AkechiNiiku: *looks away from Kazuha*
ToyamaKazuha: Aww....he’s shy
MouriRan: *smiles at the little kid* He's cute~!
AkechiNiiku: \I'm actually a little bit more scared...\
EdogawaConan: Ah, Niiku-kun, this is Ran-neechan *indicates her* and Kazuha-neechan *indicates Kazuha*
* ToyamaKazuha looks at Niiku
EdogawaConan: You met Hakase earlier. *said entirely for the benefit of the girls*
MouriRan: Nice to meet you! *smiles at Niiku*
AkechiNiiku: Nice ta meet cha, Ran-neechan and Kazuha-neechan...
ToyamaKazuha: He's cute. *looks at Ran* He looks a lot like Heiji did at that age....
MouriRan: \He reminds me of... never mind.\
HaibaraAi: \Let's hope his dialect doesn't make them more suspicious...\
EdogawaConan: \Uh-oh....*mild panic*\
MouriRan: Just as Conan-kun looks like Shinichi. *smiles*
AkechiNiiku: I- is that so? haha...
EdogawaConan: \Uh-oh.....\
AkechiNiiku: *slight blush*
* MouriRan stares at Niiku
MouriRan: You...
HaibaraAi: I don't think they look the same right now! *blurts out*
AkechiNiiku: \Idiot... \ *glare*
AkechiNiiku: Wh- What?
MouriRan: You're cute! *hugs him tight*
EdogawaConan: *gives Haibara an odd look* What?
* EdogawaConan glares at Hattori when Ran hugs him.
HaibaraAi: Afterall, Hattori-niisan has a cold right now. I think Akechi-kun looks much healthier...
AkechiNiiku: \You think I want this?!\
* ToyamaKazuha hugs Niiku
ToyamaKazuha: He's so cute!
AkechiNiiku: I um....
EdogawaConan: \That you probably do want....go ahead. Ha, you're turning bright red!\
AkechiNiiku: *stares at Kudou*
* HaibaraAi smirks
EdogawaConan: Ah...Kazuha-neechan? We kinda do need to work on our project...
HaibaraAi: *whispering* He seems to be easily popular...
AkechiNiiku: Ye- yeah... I dun wanna make my parents worry... for being up so late...
EdogawaConan: *whispers back* No kidding. They don't seem to realize either.
ToyamaKazuha: Hakase, where is Heiji? We should help him to the car.
MouriRan: Oh... I'm sorry! But I'm here because I want to ask you about Hattori-kun... *sits next to Conan*
EdogawaConan: Hakase, didn't you get Heiji-niichan out to the car earlier?
EdogawaConan: Shouldn't you head out now?
MouriRan: Can I go with you? *to Hakase* I'm worried about Hattori-kun...
EdogawaConan: Ah...what about Heiji-niichan?
AgasaHakase: Yes! We should, hopefully it's not too late.
AgasaHakase: Well, as I said, there wouldn't really be room...
* ToyamaKazuha sighs
HaibaraAi: Maybe it would be good to wait till tomorrow...
EdogawaConan: To work on the project?
EdogawaConan: Yeah, I don't think we'll get much of anywhere on it tonight...
ToyamaKazuha: Ran-chan, why don’t we help the boys get ready for bed, ne?
EdogawaConan: \Help how?? *mild panic*\
AkechiNiiku: \Oh please no! I couldn't take it!\ *hides behind Conan*
MouriRan: You're staying here tonight? *smiles at Niiku*
EdogawaConan: \Why are you hiding behind me?\
EdogawaConan: Uh...yeah. He's staying over!
EdogawaConan: So that we can work more on the project!
* HaibaraAi smirks at Hattori's behavior.
EdogawaConan: Uh...I think we'll be OK getting ready for bed on our own....'C’mon, Niiku-kun!
MouriRan: Aww, it's been a while since I got to help Conan-kun get ready for bed...
* EdogawaConan grabs Hattori's hand and drags him toward the stairs.
MouriRan: ... See? He’s... shy. Or something like it...
AkechiNiiku: Un! *follows Conan*
ToyamaKazuha: I see that now......and the other little guy looks to be just as shy
MouriRan: I'm worried about Hattori-kun...
MouriRan: You should call him, Kazuha-chan.
ToyamaKazuha: ok...
* ToyamaKazuha dials Heiji's cell phone number
* AkechiNiiku’s phone starts buzzing
AkechiNiiku: Crap! It's Kazuha! *stares at Kudou* What do I do?!
EdogawaConan: \Kuso!\ *shoves him harder to get him out of earshot from the girls.
EdogawaConan: Um....Oh! Here! *hands him the bowtie voice-changer*
AkechiNiiku: Oh, good. This thing... *messes with the dials.*
* EdogawaConan shoves Hattori into a bedroom, then closes the door behind himself.
MouriRan: \Did I just hear--? Nah~\
EdogawaConan: Need help fixing it to the right one?
AkechiNiiku: Guess so...
* EdogawaConan takes the bowtie and quickly fiddles the dials to Hattori's voice.
EdogawaConan: There. *hands it back*
EdogawaConan: Now answer the phone before she starts to get suspicious!
* AkechiNiiku answers the phone with the tie to his mouth. *very hoarsely* answers "Hello?"
ToyamaKazuha: Heiji?
* MouriRan smiles
ToyamaKazuha: Hakase said you had to go to the clinic. Are you ok?
AkechiNiiku: "Oh, Kazuha." *cough* "Sorry that I left so suddenly... But I figured I was getting contagious. Didn't want cha to get anything..."
ToyamaKazuha: Oh, I see.
ToyamaKazuha: I was worried about you.
ToyamaKazuha: Have you seen the doctor yet?
AkechiNiiku: "I figured so."
AkechiNiiku: Yeah. They told me to relax and sleep. They gave me drugs a bit ago.
ToyamaKazuha: That’s good
* MouriRan sighs, relieved
MouriRan: \So he's fine... that's great!\
ToyamaKazuha: If you were feeling ill, you should have told me, you ahou! We could have visited another time!
AkechiNiiku: It kinda just hit me.
* EdogawaConan is quietly getting pajamas out of a drawer for both of them.
ToyamaKazuha: Are you sure you don't want us to come down there?
AkechiNiiku: Nono, don't. I don't want cha gettin' sick...
AkechiNiiku: 'Sides. I need sleep. I'll talk to you tomorrow. All right?
ToyamaKazuha: Ok, good night.
* ToyamaKazuha hangs up the phone
MouriRan: *stares at her own cellphone. Sighs*
EdogawaConan: All good?
EdogawaConan: Can I have my bowtie back now?
* AkechiNiiku closes the phone
EdogawaConan: \I wanna call Ran...\
ToyamaKazuha: What's wrong, Ran-chan? Missing Kudou-kun?
AgasaHakase: I'm sure he'll be fine. Hattori-kun seems pretty stubborn
AkechiNiiku: Yeah. That was close. *tosses tie to Conan*
MouriRan: H-- Hey! *blushes*
EdogawaConan: Thanks!
MouriRan: *sighs* Yes.
ToyamaKazuha: Thought so
* EdogawaConan dials the voice-changer back to the familiar setting of his own voice.
ToyamaKazuha: Call him
MouriRan: Is Hattori-kun OK?
AgasaHakase: Ah, Shinichi-kun should be fine too...
* EdogawaConan flicking open his phone, dials a familiar number.
EdogawaConan: \Ran...\
ToyamaKazuha: Heiji is fine
MouriRan: ... Uh? *stares at her phone, buzzing*
MouriRan: *answers* Shinichi?!
KudouShinichi: Ran!
MouriRan: Y-- You idiot!
KudouShinichi: Eh? Wh-what did I do this time?
MouriRan: It's been almost a month! You have any idea of how worried I was?!
KudouShinichi: Ah...sorry....it's just been so busy wit the case and all...
KudouShinichi: But I wanted to hear your voice...it's been so long...
* HaibaraAi had been putting the books away very slowly, silently listening in.
KudouShinichi: I'll try to call more often, but sometimes I really can't get away...
MouriRan: ... *smiles* You'll never change. *laughs* Don’t worry about it. But... try to remember you have a worried childhood friend in Beika once in a while... Please? *laughs again*
KudouShinichi: *smiling* I know... And I try to call whenever I can. It's just...this case...
MouriRan: I know, I know. Don’t worry about it, really... *sighs and blushes* S--- Shinichi?
KudouShinichi: Yeah?
MouriRan: I--- Well-- I wanted to--- Eh--- I---
KudouShinichi: Wanted to what, Ran? *slightly teasing tone*
AkechiNiiku: *dry look at their lovey-dovey convo*
KudouShinichi: *slight glare at Hattori for the look*
MouriRan: No-- Nothing... *sad smile* Really, nothing.
KudouShinichi: Nothing? Really? I don't think it's 'nothing' or you wouldn't have brought it up. *smile*
KudouShinichi: \You stay out of it, Hattori, I don't get to really talk to her all the time anymore. And I'm not in denial, either!\
KudouShinichi: *sigh* If it's about when I'll be back...I'm trying to get back as soon as I can, Ran, I really am. But this case is such a mess...
KudouShinichi: So many leads that turn out to be dead ends....
MouriRan: *changes subject* Errr... so... How have you been?
KudouShinichi: I miss you.
MouriRan: ... *blushes madly, and starts breathing faster*
KudouShinichi: This case is getting really frustrating, and I really just want to come home...but I can't.
MouriRan: I... I miss you too.
KudouShinichi: *smiles* Ah, but at least you have other friends around, right?
MouriRan: Come-- come home soon... Please?
KudouShinichi: I'll try, Ran. I'm working as hard as I can on this case--that's why I can't call very often,
MouriRan: \Without you... I...\
KudouShinichi: \Ran...\
MouriRan: Really, don’t worry about me! I'm doing fine... Just... call me when you can, and when you feel like it.
KudouShinichi: I...\I love you. No, I can't say it. It'll only hurt more that I can't be there...\
KudouShinichi: When I feel like it? *wry smile* I'd never get off the phone!
AkechiNiiku: \Kudou...\ *looking at Kudou from the door*
* KudouShinichi studiously ignores Hattori.
MouriRan: *laughs, feeling happy*
KudouShinichi: *smiles again, a real one this time* I have to go now, though...
KudouShinichi: I'll call again as soon as I can, OK?
KudouShinichi: I promise.
MouriRan: Please, take care...
KudouShinichi: And I promise I'll get home as soon as I can, and you'll be the first one to know when I'm back for good.
KudouShinichi: I will, Ran. You too.
* HaibaraAi sighs and finally goes upstairs.
MouriRan: I can take care of myself pretty well...
MouriRan: But is not the same... without you. *staring at the cellphone*
KudouShinichi: Bye. *hangs up*
AkechiNiiku: You really are corny, ya know that?
EdogawaConan: Shuttup.
EdogawaConan: *glares at Hattori* You'd be just as corny in my place.
AkechiNiiku: Psh, doubt it.
* HaibaraAi walks into the room.
EdogawaConan: \Well, if you weren't in complete denial....\
EdogawaConan: Ah...Haibara...something wrong?
AkechiNiiku: What is it, chisaiineechan?
HaibaraAi: Maybe you shouldn't wait so long between those calls...
EdogawaConan: Yeah. I probably shouldn't....*wry smile again*
HaibaraAi: And it seems they've bought Hattori-kun's story, so you're in the clear for now.
EdogawaConan: Good.
EdogawaConan: Hopefully it'll wear off before they start to question things.
AkechiNiiku: Guess we better go to bed...
AkechiNiiku: Then we can think of more stuff in the morning...
AkechiNiiku: *sigh* Now to see the destruction of tomorrow…
* AkechiNiiku rubs his head
ToyamaKazuha: You ok, Ran-chan?
MouriRan: Uh!? Ah, yeah! *smiles, really happy*
ToyamaKazuha: See? Don’t you feel better now that you talked to Kudou-kun?
MouriRan: ... W-- well... *blushes* S-- sort of...
MouriRan: I should head home... *heads to the front door, showing her happiness as she walks*
MouriRan: Come on, Kazuha-chan! *huge smile*
ToyamaKazuha: ok
* ToyamaKazuha follows Ran back to the agency
