A/N: Some spoilers if you have just got into the series. Especially for vol. 25. Not sure of the episode #.
Interlude: Memorial
A man's true wealth is the good he does in this world.
-Mohammed
"There was that time in the cave-"
"Yeah, he pushed us out of the way of that bullet that that guy fired."
"He told us stuff that we figured out how to get out though he was fainted."
"And he wasn't afraid of anyone!"
"Yeah, yeah! He faced down really bad guys like murders and robbers and made them scared of him!"
"He had the coolest gadgets and he appreciated the scientific process."
"Hey! Don't forget that he..."
----------------
"He was a most intelligent boy that the whole department is going to miss. Often, he would notice the little things that helped many officers put the clues together. If only we could teach others to really see like he did, then we would be an even better"
"He will be greatly missed."
----------------
"I miss him. He was like a little guardian angel watching out for me when dad or Shinichi were not around. I wish, I wish..."
"Its okay, sweetie, you don't have to say anymore."
----------------
"I never realized how much my Conan-chan meant to everyone. I had thought...thought that I would be the only one feeling this way. But I feel better knowing I am not alone."
"Thank you for being there for him"
"Not a problem." "Here's another handkerchief." "Will you be around long?" "Edogawa-san, do you need a ride back to your hotel room?" "I'm so sorry you lost your only son."
Speech only interlude. Not a true chapter. I hope you get the idea of whose speaking in each section. This is something I just spat out. Nothing fancy. Also, I am editing this on a machine w/o word, so the format is a little different. I will fix it when I get home from my trip.
