Fandom: Detective Conan
Summary: There were only three kids of the Akai Family, right? There was no way that Masumi had a third older brother. So why the hell were these people calling him Akai Mitsuharu? More importantly, how the hell was he even alive!? [OC Insert as Akai Sibling]
"Everything's been taken care of," Subaru informed Haru when he regained consciousness at the hospital. "Your leg is definitely broken. It would've only been a fracture if you had immediately left when I told you to, but you worsened the injury,"
"If I had gone home, you wouldn't have had the fireworks grenade or the soccer ball," Haru pointed out. "The crows would've probably killed you guys and countless others. What's the cover story for my injury?" He was grateful that Subaru had removed the Scarlet Dragon suit before admitting him into the hospital.
"You tried to do a wheelie on your motorcycle and ended up failing miserably," Subaru answered.
"Is it bad that it is a very believable story?" Haru sighed. "Everyone will accept that without any questions,"
"The good news is that you'll be discharged soon," Shukichi said. "I'll treat you to ramen for dinner,"
"I like ramen," Haru grinned. "Where are we eating at?"
"Ramen Ogura," Shukichi answered. "Their ramen is so good, it's to die for,"
"Haru, you better not die,"
"…"

"Welcome," Ohashi Sayo and Ogura Katsumasa greeted as they entered. "Oh, Haneda-san, you brought some friends with you today,"
"Yo, I'm Haru," Haru greeted, using crutches to enter since his left leg was in a cast. Subaru and Shukichi kept an eye on him to make sure he didn't strain himself too much. "I'm Kichi-nii's awesome little bro. The other guy with us is Chewy. He's freeloading at my place,"
"Last time I checked, Yukiko-san and Yusaku-san owned the Kudo House," Subaru reminded. "So you're also freeloading,"
"They adopted me as their second son," Haru claimed. 'Though I'm sure Yukiko-san is calling you her third son,'
"What would you like to eat today?" Katsumasa asked.
"I'll have an enma daiou ramen," Subaru requested.
"Tonkatsu for me," Haru added.
"I'll have the miso ramen," Shukichi said. "Could we also get three servings of gyoza?"
"Coming right up!" Katsumasa nodded.
Once their food was served, they all dug in. Haru finished his food before his brothers were even halfway done. "Ne, can I have another tonkatsu ramen bowl and another serving of gyoza please?"
"Sure thing," Katsumasa quickly prepared the two dishes and served them to Haru.
Haru once again finished his servings, this time faster than the first time. "Can I have another bowl and more gyoza please?"
"I'm glad you like the food but please don't overeat," Sayo advised. "You'll end up with a stomachache,"
"Ah, I'll take that into consideration," Haru chuckled. "Sometimes I'm too lazy to cook when I get home since I cook a lot at work. I'd sometimes just make a bread sandwich,"
"Bread sandwich?" Shukichi inquired.
"What do you think it is?" Haru rolled his eyes. "It's three pieces of bread. One of my classmates liked two slices of sourdough with a nice slice of wheat bread in between. Me? I like to go rye, rye, rye. I'm a rye guy. Also with a glass of rye,"
"You better not have had a glass of rye," Subaru warned. "You're underage,"
"I couldn't find any," Haru shrugged. "Anyway, I eat more actual meals now that you're usually home," He finished up his final bowl of ramen and plate of gyoza. "Ah, that hit the spot. Delicious. I'll be sure to come here again some time,"
As they were leaving, Shukichi saw someone fall down and ran over to her. "Are you alright?" Another figure ran past him but he ignored them.
"Ch-Chukichi!?" Yumi exclaimed. "What are you doing here!?"
"I just finished eating dinner with my brothers," Shukichi answered. "You?"
"I'm pursuing a suspicious person!" Yumi responded hastily. "Did you pass by anyone!?"
"Yeah, just now," Shukichi glanced back. "But it was dark so I could only hear their footsteps and see a silhouette," He pointed at a roll of duct tape not too far from them. "They seem to have thrown that at you," He looked towards his brothers. "Hey, did you guys see the person who ran by?"
"Sorry, but Haru was complaining that his stomach was hurting so I was helping him climb onto my back so I could carry him," Subaru replied. "I was unable to see the person's face,"
"I think I ate too much…" Haru groaned.
"They warned you," Shukichi sweat-dropped.
"In any case, it's dangerous here so you three should go home," Yumi continued in the direction the culprit ran.

A week later, Haru returned to Ramen Ogura with Subaru since neither were in a mood to cook. "A tonkatsu ramen and a miso ramen with two servings of gyoza please,"
"Coming right up!" Katsumasa said. "Please don't eat too much like last time, Haru-san,"
"Haru-niichan? Subaru-san?" Conan questioned. "What are you two doing here?"
"Haru-san really loves our tonkatsu ramen and gyoza," Sayo commented. "He had three bowls of tonkatsu and three servings of gyoza for himself last week,"
"How haven't you gained weight?" Sonoko gave him a suspicious look. "You're still slim,"
"Because I'm awesome," Haru grinned and started eating.
"Limit your meal to one of each," Subaru sighed. "I don't mind carrying you on my back, but I don't want to see you in pain,"
"It's not like I was gonna die," Haru mumbled.
"How's your leg doing Haru-nii?" Masumi inquired. "Hopefully you avoid attempting a wheelie in the future,"
'I am somewhat tempted to do an actual wheelie now,' "It's getting better, just a pain to stand and walk," Haru replied. After he had emptied a soy sauce dispenser, he noticed something still inside and unscrewed it. "Earrings?"
"Huh?" Katsumasa said. "Those look like Tonda-san's earrings. What were they doing inside of the soy sauce dispenser?"
"Chewy, there's something I need you to check for in the bathroom toilet's tank," Haru said. "Look for lens fragments, temple pieces, and the bridge," 'One of the good things that came from losing my memory temporarily and regaining all of them is that my memories of the episodes and chapters that I've watched and read are much fresher than before,'
Subaru nodded and entered the bathroom. A few minutes later, he came out with the pieces Haru had told him to search for. "I take it you know why these things are here?"
"We'll have to wait for Culprit-san tomorrow," Haru smirked. "Ah, but we'll be busy with our homework. Masumi, can you capture the criminal?"

"I can't believe I used soy sauce with those earrings inside," Haru stuck his tongue out as he laid down on the couch. "Bleh, who knows how dirty those things were?"
"We could've gone to Ramen Ogura tomorrow night," Subaru said. "Why did you not want to go?"
"Because I don't want to have to walk much on this leg," Haru motioned to his broken limb. "Two nights in a row, walking this much? No thanks. Your car is currently in the repair shop since it hasn't been working well, probably from whatever that stalker woman did,"
"We could take the Mustang," Subaru offered.
"I thought you didn't want attention drawn to you?" Haru pointed out. "Anyway, I just want to rest,"
"Ruff," Bepo climbed onto Haru's chest.
"Mrow," Cora climbed onto Bepo.
"Goodnight," All three of them fell asleep on the couch like that.
Subaru sweat-dropped. "I could've carried you to your room…"
Haru loves ramen and gyoza. His favorite meal is instant ramen with the noodle separated from the broth and dunked in honey barbecue sauce, fried gyoza drenched in honey barbecue sauce, and honey barbecue sauce as the drink.
