About thirty minutes earlier

Where was he? Mouri Ran wondered. He had been right by her. It was like he dropped off the face of the planet. To make things worse he had been talking and suddenly he was gone. Poof! No more Conan. Conan-kun. Ran called his cell phone for the tenth time. It was either off or he had forgotten to re-charge it. Conan could be so forgetful when it came to electronics. She looked all over the park. She had looked until she was forced to leave.

"Conan-kun." She said sullenly, sitting on a bench out in the rain. She was soaked. Sonoko was explaining the situation to Security and Hondou Eisuke was sitting by her side.

"They'll find him Mouri-san." He saying, "I'm sure he's safe." Ran held back her tears and looked at Hondou.

"Ne, Eisuke-kun. You don't think something happened to him, do you?" She asked. Hondou patted her back.

"Nothing happened to him Mouri-san." Ran looked over to the Shounen Tantei dan. They were all soaked. Why hadn't anyone been able to find him? They had even split up to look for him. Sonoko sat on the other side of her and slung her arm over Ran's back. Bad news Ran recognized the body language.

"Ran, No one was found in the park." Her friend's words bit like ice. Hondou looked down.

"Mouri-san, call your dad. Maybe Conan-kun went home?" Ran took out her phone again and speed dialed the agency.

"Mouri Tantei Agency." Her father's voice met her ears.

"Tousan! Is Conan-kun there?" She asked urgently.

"No. Didn't he go with you?" Ran lowered the phone a little.

"Yes, but I can't find him." she wiped her eyes. "He just disappeared."

"Ran calm down. When did he disappear? How long have you been looking for him?" Kogoro asked her.

"Since around noon. Tousan it's seven now." She sobbed. Ayumi looked over at Ran. So Conan wasn't home. She felt tears start to well up in her eyes. Kogoro tried to sooth his daughter over the phone.

"Ran it'll be alright. I'll go up there and help look for him. In the mean time you call around to see if anyone's seen him." He hung up. Ran didn't waste time she pulled up all the numbers on her phone. First was her mother. While it rang she turned to Sonoko.

"Sonoko, could you call Kazuha-chan and tell her to tell Hattori-kun?" Sonoko nodded and pulled out her phone. Ran was forced to leave a message.

"Okasan, it's Ran. I can't find Conan-kun, please call me back if you know where he is."

"Kazuha-chan! Is Hattori-kun around?" Sonoko had gotten a hold of Kazuha.

"Hai. Doshte?" Kazuha's voice suggested she looked over at Heiji.

"We can't find Conan anywhere. He's been missing since noon this afternoon."

"Nani?" Kazuha exclaimed. "That long- Heiji!" Hattori had taken the phone from him.

"What's goin on over there?"

"Conan's missing, we haven't seen him since noon today."

"WHAT?" The Osakan detective demanded.

"Yeah, missing. Do you know where he might be?"

"Did you try the old man's house? Agasa?" Sonoko looked over to Ran.

"He hasn't seen him since yesterday." Ran said sadly, just hanging up with Agasa.

"I'll be there as soon as I can." Hattori hung up. Haibara was watching Hondou who was trying his best to console Ran when Kogoro came in.

"Still nothing?" He asked Ran hugged him tightly. She shook her head still crying. "Maybe he got lost on his way home?" Ran Sobbed harder at that thought. Kogoro wrapped his arms around his daughter. He was worried too. Though he would never admit it. "He's not legally considered missing until twenty four hours." Ran was too upset to care. Her little Conan-kun was missing. She wanted him back, safe and sound. He was like a little brother to her, and she often caught herself mothering him. She now knew how her mother felt when she and Shinichi would sneak out to solve riddles. She didn't like it. Her phone started to ring.

"Conan-kun?" She asked hopefully.

"No, it's your mother." Eri's voice sounded. Ran's heart sank a little.

"Oh, Kasan, have you seen Conan-kun?"

"No. I haven't But I'll get a search party started."

(Yippee! Chapter three!)
