CHAPTER 2

Doubts plastered all over the young adults faces, however, KID remained stoic. They had figured out a while ago that they were completely in a foreign place, if the men before them as well as the busy but noisy street ahead was any indication. Still, they couldn't shake the feeling that something was simply not right.

Though before anyone could react, there was a puff of smoke, making both cops flinched. As the smoke resided, one man was missing, leaving the other two behind clearly unamused.

"Uh, where did he go?" Said one officer, unconsciously scratching his head. Shrugging, they led the other two young adults inside the police car. Each passing second, Hakuba was becoming more anxious. His fist clenching on top of his pants causing his knuckles to turn white as the strange horseless carriage carried them away to God-knows-where. Obviously, running was futile. Besides, they haven't done anything wrong. So KID's escape was a complete understandment, and utterly pointless. Hakuba has seen his face, there was no denying that. Never before in his life he felt this desperate to put Kaitou KID to justice. Still, he couldn't believe himself as he thought that perhaps there was more to it than the thief stealing jewels, only to return them back. He was cutted out of his thoughts when the other detective with him seemed to be speaking to the blond, Hakuba actually forgot about him.

Heiji was looking at him with an obvious annoyance written all over his face. Ignoring the urged to twitch his eye, he tried again. "As I was saying, look outside."

The half-british returned the glare before looking outside. He almost did a double take.

Large buildings with lights seemed to be touching the sky, different colored lights shined everywhere causing the window of the vehicle to shimmer as they passed. Everyone was wearing strange clothes. There were also large posters with people in them, seeming to attract them with their strange but stylish clothing. A large red tower with lights stood tall and proud. They have never seen this place before.

"Excuse me good sir, where is this place?" Asked Hakuba hesitantly.

"Beika, Japan."

More hesitantly and somehow sounding disbelieving, Heiji asked. "What date is today?"

The cop looked back at him over his shoulder like the man just said something ridiculous. He answered him anyway. "September 20, 2016."

It was like heavy blocks of ice fell down on them, Hakuba felt like hyperventilating. Both cops gave worried glances at them when the two young males just stopped from talking and seemed to be paling faster than the speed of light.

'September 20?! How could that have happened? KID's last heist happened at September 10! Which was only yesterday! And not to mention this place's year.. This is getting more ridiculous!'

Unsure what to do, they spoke for the 26th time to the none responding males. "Sir? SIR!"

Both detectives blinked at the cop's sudden outburst, they seemed to have arrived at their destination. More anxious than before, they stepped out of the horseless carriage and into a 3 story building.

Once they got inside, a fat man with a mustache was furiously yelling at a rectangular-box shaped thing, whatever that is. All the while, the people around seemed to be doing their best not to get noticed by the man.

"WHAT?!"

Both time-travelers flinched at the man's outburst, wanting nothing more than to get out of this really strange place. The fat male continued to yell at the strange thing before slaming it on something on the table.

"Those guys drives me crazy! Seriously."

Both cops actually thought the same thing about nothing more than to avoid being seen by the man. Despite of probably getting yelled at, he coughed to get his attention. "Sir, they're here."

Furious eyes glanced at them, waiting for the man to yell at both cops, but nothing came. "Have them both seated down." Was said by the older male instead as he grabbed the strange thing again and tapped it with his chubby fingers. Strange.

Minutes ticked by, Hakuba and Heiji waited patiently. After a few more minutes, the man from before took a seat infront of them.

"Sorry about that earlier." He sheepishly rub the back of his neck.

"That is alright. I am Hakuba Saguru, and this here is–"

"Hattori Heiji."

The man nodded. "I'm inspector Megure Juzo, I run this facility." He gestured the place around them. "Right then, let's get into business. I'm going to ask you both some questions and I want the truth, no lies. Is that okay for you?"

"I have nothing against it. In fact, I knew since the beginning you were going to ask either way. So what do you have in mind?"

Seemingly shock, he shooked it off. "Where are you from?"

Already knowing that would be the first thing the man would ask from them, they answered truthfully, seeing there is no other choice if they lie about what happened. Megure-keibu listened intently, sometimes he would ask them something before listening again. Once they were done, the man had a frown on his face.

"Sounds more ridiculous than a fairy tail, but from the looks of you two wearing outdated clothes where no one in the world have worn ever since branded clothes were made I believe you."

The inspector pondered for a moment, seeming to be in deep thought. The detectives thought it was probably time to go when a young man came into the room, looking extremely exhausted but he doesn't seem to know that, if him asking the inspector for any more files he had to take was anything to go by. Megure gave the young adult a worried glance.

"Don't worry about it Shinichi-kun, you should go home and rest. You look like you're about to pass out any moment."

The young male thanked the inspector as he noticed the two time-travelers sitting before him. The older man seemed to noticed it as he suddenly perked up like he had a brilliant idea.

"This is Hakuba-kun and Hattori-kun. They don't have a place to stay so could you do me a favor and let them stay at your house for a few weeks? I'll tell you the whole story tomorrow since you really need to rest."

The man infront of Hakuba and Heiji blinked the sleepiness in his sapphire eyes away as he absentmindedly rub the back of his head. A strange tuft standing from behind, though they thought it.. cute. They quickly shoved that weird account away in their minds.

"..Sure. I don't know what's going on but if you trust them then I don't see any problem about it." He said before letting his arm fall down to his side.

Megure-keibu let out a sigh of relief. "Thank you so much Shinichi-kun, I owe you one." He then turned to the time-travelers. "You both should probably go then, you two need to rest as well."

Nodding and saying thanks, they followed the 'cute' male out of the building.

'Maybe this wasn't so bad after all..' Both past detectives thought.
