Shards of Broken Memories

XXXX

Takishima Kei felt uneasy, he closed his book and then opened it again, but he wasn't paying attention to what he was reading. He was worried since his long time crush and rival; Hanazono Hikari, was absent for a few days.

"W-where is Hikari-chan?" Akira asked as their group; Tsuji Ryuu, Yamamoto Megumi, Yamamoto Jun, Karino Tadashi and she herself. The atmosphere was tense, since Hikari wasn't around and Kei was worried.

"Maybe we should visit her house" Megumi wrote in her pad.

"Good idea" they all agreed to the plan.

"Should we invite him along?" asked Tadashi eyeing the worried teen.

"Like I'll let that monster go in Hikari-chan's house!" Akira stated.

"He's noticed us…" Jun whispered.

"Are you going to Hikari's house?" asked Kei.

"Y-yeah…" the five tensed.

They arrived in front of the Hanazono residence, the S.A rang the door bell and waited until Hikari's mom opened the door.

"Ah! You must be Hikari's friends" she pointed out.

"Is Hikari-chan home?" inquired Akira.

Masako Hanazono frowned "Please come in" she said, ignoring the question. The S.A students threw her puzzled looks, but still walked inside the house. Their eyes widened at the sight of the Hanazono's things packed in boxes that were stacked in the corners of the room.

"Are you moving, Hanazono-san?" Ryuu voiced out their question. The older Hanazono nodded meekly.

"I-if it's about a job or money, we'd be happy to help!" Akira stated.

"I wish it was that simple…" Masako whispered, but they heard her clearly.

"What happened?" Kei asked, feeling nervous.

"It's Hikari…" their eyes widened "someone is trying to…kill her…" they gasped

"But why?" Megumi wrote in her pad.

"A few days ago…" began Hikari's mother "she noticed a few suspicious looking people, she followed them and then saw something she shouldn't have…" she took a deep breath and continued "Ishida Kyou… she witnessed his murder… and then she… she…"

"Kaa-san!" they heard Hikari's voice call, the said girl entered the room startling the S.A class.

"Hikari!" they chorused.

"Eh? Who are you…?"

"Hi…ka…ri…" Akira whispered "It's us! The S.A class!"

"S.A?"

"She lost her memories…" Kei said, trying to keep his cool but on the inside he wanted to kill whoever murdered that guy and caused Hikari to lose her memories.

"They are you friends, Hikari-chan" her mother said gently.

"Ishida Kyou" Edogawa Conan read the newspaper headline "…famous chemist murdered, reasons unknown… a young girl managed to get a glimpse of the murder but unfortunately lost her memories due to shock"

"They're after them Kudo-kun… they want a new chemist for APTX4869"

He remembered what Haibara Ai said, it all began a few weeks ago… missing chemists all over Japan, some were found dead while others were still missing. The Black Organization has made their move. His thoughts were disrupted when a group of students barged in the detective agency.

"Mouri Kogoro…" a guy said in a deadly tone, making shivers run down the shrunken boy's spine.

"He won't listen to us if you use that tone!" scolded a girl beside him "do you really want him to find the culprit?"

"I agree with Akira" another girl held a sketch pad that had those words written on it.

'Akira?' Conan thought 'Where have I heard that name before'

"W-what can I help you with?" Mouri stuttered as he sensed a deadly aura.

"We want you to find the murderer of Ishida Kyou!" Akira stated, slamming her hand on the table.

"Are you related to him, somehow?" the detective asked.

"No, not really" said another guy.

"Then why d-"

"It's personal" the statement discouraged further questioning.

"And you guys are…"

"Takishima Kei"

"Tsuji Ryuu" said the guy who had a sloth with him.

"Yamamoto Jun and this is…" the guy pointed to the long haired girl who had a sketch pad with her that had "Yamamoto Megumi" written on it.

"Karino Tadashi"

"and I'm Toudou Akira"

'Takishima Kei and Toudou Akira…!' Conan's eyes widened 'They're…'

"we only asked you since that high school detective isn't home" stated Tadashi.

Akira sighed "of all the times he had to disappear… Shinichi… that idiot"

"Y-you know Shinichi?" inquired Ran.

"We- that's Kei and I- met him in Hawaii" she explained

"As I was saying I want you to investigate the murder of Ishida Kyou, so I can kill him with my bare hands…" Kei emitted a deadly aura.

"Now, now" Ryuu tried to calm Kei down but only got a death glare in response.

"We'll pay you five million yen, if you find the murderers…" he said putting a check with the said amount down on the table.

"F-five million…" Kogor was in loss for words.

"but if we called that Shinchi guy, he could've done it for free" Megumi stated using her sketch pad.

"but we don't know where he is or how we can contact him" Jun replied.

"ask his parents" Megumi responded

"Good idea!" Akira took her cell phone out and dialled the Kudo's number, abroad of course.

'The number you are calling is unavailable please try again later'

"That's Kudo- sensei, always unplugging the phone" Kei sighed. "If you don't solve this case… I will personally-" Kei was cut off when he was dragged out of the room.

"Here's our numbers by the way, contact us if you find something" Akira said handing a piece of paper to Ran and then noticing Conan "Ara, you look just like Kudo-sensei" she pointed out, Conan laughed nervously. "We hope to hear from you"
