Chapter 3 is arrived! Thanks for the review. I'll try to keep it up.

Disclaimer: I don't own DC.

Prologue: Conan and the detective boys were asked to solve a case about student's lost contact numbers. Who might be the culprit? There's only one truth!

Sorry. Few love scenes of Conan and Haibara here.

Chapter 3: Broken Friendship, Becomes Love


"I know that she didn't want to disturb the relationship between me and Ran. She wanted to keep me and her as just best friends," Conan heard his own voice.

'What…?' Conan thought.

"Besides, I didn't feel that she wanted to gain the bond of me and her deeper."

"I don't understand that girl from the start. It was the first time that I saw a girl, loosing her life within that calm," Conan's voice continued. "Did she not believe in me as her best friend?"

'Huh?' Conan thought.

"There's maybe only one reason why she dared to die," Hakase's voice came.

Conan raised his eyebrows.

"She didn't want to let the friendship between you becomes love…that can endanger the relationship of her and you…"

Conan felt silent by the last words of Hakase's voice.

"Aishiteru…" here came Haibara's voice.

(I love you…)

Conan's eyes widened.

"But it seems my hope to live normally forever with you…was not as happy ending as fairy tales…" she continued.

"Isn't that right?"

"Kudo-kun…"

"Dammit…" Conan heard his own voice again. "Dammit, Haibara…"

Conan closed his eyes forcefully.

"Farewell…"

BLAM.

"AAAAARRRRRGGGGGHHHHH!"

Conan woke up in shock expression.

"Can't you please wake up quietly next time?" Haibara asked, glaring at him. She was sitting on the bed next to him, carrying Oonan in her arms, one hand carrying a bottle of milk.

"Huh?" he said, sweats still soaking his face. "Oh, uh… Sorry about that. I just got a nightmare," he said, hesitated.

Haibara slipped the nipple of the bottle into the baby's mouth. "His mother will come to pick him up today," she said.

"O-Oh… I see."

She glanced at him.

"May I know what you were dreaming about?" she asked.

His sweat dropped. "Huh? It was not as interesting as you thought, really," he said, hesitated.

She stared at him for a moment. Then she took a gaze at Oonan in her arms.

Conan had some thought that it was better to not tell her about his dream.


"This is suspicious," Mitsuhiko said, crossing his arms.

"This is suspicious," Ayumi repeated.

"Hmm…" Genta thought hardly, closing his eyes.

"Hey, was there anybody who ever touched your cell-phone?" Conan asked to a little girl named Atsuko, their client.

"Uh… yeah, there were three in total," she replied, hesitated. "First was Tomoya, my best friend in the same class. Then, it was Genko, the leader of soccer team, also was the student from beside my class. And, it was Fuguwara-sensei, the Math teacher of my class."

"So, what have they done to your cell?" Conan asked another.

"Um… Tomoya is always borrowing my cell-phone for just looking the inside. But he always shares his cell-phone, too, in return. However, I always had a fight with him because he annoyed me," she explained. "One day, I got encountered with Genko while I was going home. He said he wanted to see the video of his team I recorded in soccer competition yesterday. But he just borrowed my cell-phone for only few seconds, then he returned to his friends immediately because one of them got injured."

"Fuguwara-sensei confiscated my cell-phone because he saw me playing game inside my cell-phone during his lesson," she continued. "Then he returned it to me after school, saying 'Learn how to respect your teachers.'"

"Then, Genko is not the culprit," Ayumi guessed. "He didn't have enough time to remove all numbers only in few seconds."

"No. It could be possible," Haibara said. "Inside the cell-phone, there's an option named MARK, right? He could remove the numbers by just choosing the MARK ALL and DELETE, in short time."

"Oh, that's right…" Ayumi said, hesitated.

"We have to figure the culprit's reason on removing her contact numbers," Conan said. "Then, we might know the culprit is."

"Hmm… her friend who wanted to look the inside of her cell-phone…" Genta said, trying to concentrating his brain.

"The leader of a soccer team who wanted to see the video of his team in soccer competition…" Mitsuhiko continued, rubbing his chin.

"The Math teacher who confiscated her cell-phone because she was playing game during his lesson…" Haibara continued, crossing her arms.

Conan stared at Haibara in distance.

"Aishiteru…"

He finally snapped out when she noticed his eyes.

She took a glare at him. "What was that look?" she asked.

"Oh, n-nothing!" he said, hesitated.

Conan's cell-phone vibrated. He picked it up immediately, walking off few distance from the others.

It was Ran.

"Yes, Ran-neechan?" he asked.

"What was that 'Yes, Ran-neechan?' Conan-kun!?" Ran yelled him in the phone, astonished him. "Why didn't you go home yesterday!?"

"I-I was staying in Hakase's house," he replied, hesitated. "I-I'm helping her doing the baby sitting job this morning and watched the mother picking him up today. Since today is Sunday, I was asked to play with my friends."

"There's no reason you stayed in anyone's house without my permission!" she yelled.

"I-I'm sorry, Ran-neechan! I promise it will be the last!" he apologized. "W-Well, I'll call you later. Bye!" he said as he ended the conservation immediately. Then he took a deep sigh. I have to finish this kid's case right away, he thought in glare.

"Have you ever been to London?" Atsuko asked Ayumi. "I was asked by my uncle to move there."

"That's awesome!" Ayumi shouted.

"… That can endanger the relationship of her and you…" the thought came inside Conan's mind. Then he smiled confidently.


"Atsuko," someone's voice called her from behind.

It was Tomoya.

"Can I borrow your cell-phone once more?" Tomoya asked, glaring at her. "Since the contact numbers are already lost, there was no more of precious things inside your cell-phone, right?"

Atsuko glared him back. "Here."

"I've guessed that it was you," Conan's voice came from behind him. "Tomoya."

Tomoya looked back at Conan immediately. The others looked at Tomoya in shock expression.

"Maybe my analysis is wrong. But there is definitely something more you wanted to remove," Conan said.

"Haha… Why would I do that…?" Tomoya asked. "Look. What I want to do is…"

"Let me guess. What you want to remove is…" Conan interrupted him, "the video of Genko's team in soccer competition."

"Listen. I don't have any reason on removing her contact numbers," Tomoya said, glaring at him.

"Don't worry. We won't blame you," Ayumi said, smiling.

"You don't want Atsuko to move away and leave from Japan, right?" Genta said.

Tomoya showed his shock expression.

"That's why you removed all the contact numbers, so she couldn't call her uncle," Mitsuhiko continued.

Tomoya looked down. "I… I just don't want to break our friendship…" he said tonelessly.

"Hey. If you don't want me to leave, you don't have to remove the Genko's video, too," Atsuko said, gazing at him.

"Oh, that… he probably…"

When Conan began to tell it, Tomoya said faster, "I got jealous of Genko… I like Atsuko more than just a friend…"

Atsuko blushed. "Eh?"

"She ever told me that she was planning to move away to London. Of course I told her that I don't want her to leave. But she said it was hard to argue with him. My brain was trapped in a dead end." Tomoya confessed.

"Th-Then I removed all the contact numbers inside her cell-phone," he continued, hesitated, "and prevented her to not calling her uncle or anyone who will support her to leave."

Atsuko raised her eyebrows at him. Then she smiled. "Don't worry, Tomoya-kun," she said. "I already told my uncle that I will keep staying in Japan."

Tomoya showed his thin red lines flushed on his face. "S-So… you won't…"

"Yes, I might say that it was hard to argue with him," Atsuko replied, had the same lines as he had. "But I told him if he still forces me to move away, I won't listen to him and become a bad person. I refused on moving away from school."

"That's great, Tomoya!" Ayumi shouted.

"Congratulations!" Mitsuhiko continued.

Haibara stared at them before she took her sight on Conan for a moment.

Broken friendship, becomes love…

She smiled slightly. "Silly…"

He glanced at her in distance. "Hmm?"


End of Chapter 3

sillyShiho… Yeah. But I get more proud when Aoyama Gosho writes their love scene by himself. From what I've analyzed, I kinda understand about Conan's and Haibara's truly relationship.

No cliffhanger. I guess you the readers would be satisfied that way, right?

I've already told you that I'm not going to put too much love scenes. I'm just feeling right that way. If you want to know the real serious love scenes I will write, you have to wait until I publish it in the right chapter.

Anyway, thanks for reading! Sorry for the bad English! And please review!
