Zero and Conan were racing against time to stop the capsule when Rei noticed Conan looking at his phone repeatedly. He said, "The power of love is great, isn't it?"/p

Mr. Amuro really knew everything didn't he. He then asked Zero, "I have been meaning to ask you for a long time, do you have a girlfriend?" Amuro smirked and replied, "My lover is ... THIS COUNTRY ITSELF! Conan sighed knowingly, you couldn't really have a decent conversation about things like crushes and love with this man,could you?/p

When Rei finally reached his apartment after getting his bruises treated he just collapsed on his bed from exhauston. All of a sudden Conan's question about his love life resurfaced in his mind. He remembered a cute face in his past, a boy just like him who wanted to serve his Japan along with Rei, yes he just remembered him. Hiro. Rei still had nightmares of that day and could still envision and hear those words in the last voice mail Hiro would ever send. Hiro who was full of innocence, a bright ray of hope for Rei. Someone who had died for his country. Rei had only been holding on for so many days just to protect the country and justice that Hiro held so close to his heart. Hiro, who was the first person besides Elena to ever see him for what he was instead of seeing just a half Japanese boy. Rei forever regretted his decision of not confessing his feelings to Hiro and asking him out. So he had taken a vow that he would never love anyone and had closed off his heart, after all Hiro took it him when he went off to heaven. The only thing that kept him going these days was his sense of duty and desire for revenge against Akai./p

Hagi had to be given special credit today; Rei could never have maneuvered around that horrible traffic and covered all that distance in few minutes if not for picking up driving skills from him. Though he had a feeling if Hagi was driving instead of him, Conan would actually have started CRYING like a baby, Rei wouldn't have been shocked, he would have felt like crying too. Sitting in a car with Hagi as a driver tended to do that to you. Hagi died as an exemplary police officer and Rei couldn't have been prouder of him. If not for Date hanchou's strong influence, Furuya would probably never have been able to get that Kazami to obey him so religiously. It really boosted his inflated ego a lot, and he rather liked it. Matsuda his bane of existence at one point ended up becoming his closest friend(after Hiro of course) and taught him how to dismantle bombs and was the one who helped him take the first plunge towards doing the many reckless things that Rei would later go on to do in his career. Right. He had sworn to make this country his lover and live on for these people./p

He had to wake up early for his shift at poirot the next day. Rei sighed. Man , he had to put up that annoying smile the whole day for his customers and listen to Azusa's constant blabbering. Well, it was the lightest work load he had but definitely boring. But oh well as an NPA agent he had to do his responsibilities. Like hell he was going to let Matsuda make fun of him from up there for slacking off./p
