CHAPTER 1: The Mysterious Girl.
The streets were quiet and the wind was blowing. It was a dark, cold night in Tokyo, Japan.
The streets became un-silent at the sound of sirens in the distance and the click-clack of the girls boots on the sidewalk. The girl's short, black, hair blew in the wind, along with her long, black, trench coat. Her hands stayed in her pockets to keep warm, but they were still cold.
The girl looked up from the ground and saw about three cop cars parked in front of a house. When she got closer she saw a middle-aged woman being put in one of the cars. When the girl looked to the open door she saw Mouri Kogouro, surrounded by reporters. By a near window stood a girl and a small boy, who had glasses.
The girl rolled her eyes and began to walk away, keeping her eyes on what was going on.
The small boy noticed the girl walking by. When he looked at the girl, she stopped walking and looked at the boy, he then got a shiver down his spin. Her eyes were cold, but very beautiful. She had five piercing's on her ear and one on her lip. For some odd reason, she looked familiar.
The girl stood there, looking at the boy. He backed up against the girl, that was standing behind him. "Conan?" she said.
The boy, named Conan, looked at the girl across the way, no fear in his eyes or emotions. The girl behind him looked at her also. She smiled and waved. The girl across the way nodded, as if saying hi back, and had a smile on her face.
Conan looked up at the girl behind him. "Ran-nee-chan?" he said. "Do you know her?"
The girl, named Ran, smiled at Conan and said, "I've never meet her. Why don't we go over and say hi?"
When Ran looked back over there, she saw the girl was walking away.
Conan watched as the girl walked away. Weird… he thought, why would she be doing this late out?
When the girl was gone, the two focused on what was happening around them.
The girl was walking down the street, thinking, That boy…back there…he had a weird aura to him… I wonder, is there something more? She then continued walking down the street, but she had no idea where she was headed.
Conan and Ran were still standing near the window. The two were watching Kogouro get smothered by reporters. Each one asking, almost, the same question. "How were you able to solve this case, Detective Mori Kogouro?" they asked.
As always, Kogouro answered, "Tell the truth, I don't even remember solving it!" Which made everyone laugh.
Conan had a pathetic smile plastered on his face. In his head he was thinking, And I was the one to solve it, old man…
Conan straitened up and put his hand to his chin, thinking. My mind is still set on that girl from earlier… he thought. I have many questions… like, who is she? What was she doing out this late? Could she be working with the Men In Black? Conan looked in the direction that the girl went in. He then remembered the look she gave him. Her eyes…were suspicious… Conan gave a slight laugh and shook his head. I really need to stop thinking about something so trivial.
Conan felt a hand on his head. He looked up and saw Ran smiling at him. "Time to go, Conan-kun," she said.
Conan nodded and got his head out of the clouds. He then got into a police car with Ran and Detective Mouri Kogouro, then they all drove off to the Police station.
On the way, Conan was looking out the window. They passed by many people in the city, but one person caught Conan's eye. It was the same girl that he saw passing the house. She looked like she was thinking, her hand was to her chin and her eyes focused in front of her. Her expression changed a few times.
Conan raised an eyebrow at her, luckily the car had stopped at a light and the girl was standing on the corner, waiting to walk across.
The girl looked up and at the car, knowing someone's eyes were on her. She didn't looked so surprised to see them all looking at her. But right when she meet eyes with Conan, her eyes became narrow and she grinned.
"Hey, Detective Sato," Conan said, leaning forward and putting his head between Detective Sato and Takagi, "do you know that girl right there?"
Detective Sato and Takagi looked at the girl that was looking away from them now. "She looks familiar…" she said.
Kogouro looked at the girl and said, "Her picture was in the paper this morning." Everyone looked at him. "I don't know what it was about though, it looked to boring to read."
"Do you remember what the title was?" Conan said, eager to hear.
Kogouro raised an eye at him. "Kei Suzume Helps Police," he said.
"That names sounds really familiar," Ran said, putting her finger to her mouth.
Kei Suzume…. Conan thought, sitting back in his seat as the car drove on. I wonder…who is she?
