Conan's Misfortunes

Disclaimer: I do not own anything related to DC or CC except for this fanfic…so sue me. :P

Harley

Conan, Rachel, and Richard stood at the train station in Osaka waiting for a certain someone. He was supposed to be here 30 minutes ago… Of course Conan was thinking about Harley. Who else does Conan know that lives in Osaka and would call him all the way over just for a tour after already having the first one interrupted by a serial killer? Harley of course. Lucky for him, he doesn't attract as many deaths as Conan does. But then again, he does almost blow Conan's cover one too many times.

"Hey detective Moore! Oh, hey Kudo!" Harley popped out from behind his father. Rachel, Conan, and Richard all looked surprised.

"Did you say Kudo?" Rachel asked, looking around.

How could he be so stupid?! Conan thought angrily. Why would I be living with Rachel and Richard if they knew who I was!? I would've been dead by then! He just couldn't see how Harley couldn't have put two and two together back then. I wouldn't have to worry about that if he hadn't been so insisting…

Harley yawned, waking up from the tranquilizer, or so it seemed to Conan.

"Sleepy, huh? Making all those deductions and cracking the case must have worn you out." Rachel said.

"Huh?" Harley looked confused for a moment, then he smiled. "Oh, that was nothing! Just the day in the life of a brilliant detective!" He laughed.

'Whew…That was too close for comfort.' Conan thought in relief.

"Conan? Conan where are you?" Rachel went off looking for him.

Conan stepped into the room. "I'm over here Rachel, be right there!"

"Hold it."

"Huh?" he looked up to the speaker.

Harley looked back down at Conan. "You're Kudo, aren't you?"

Conan looked shocked. "W-what are you talking about?! I'm just a kid! Maybe when I grow up I'll be like Jimmy!" He made a desperate laugh.

"Don't give me that 'little kid' crap, Kudo, I know it's you!" Harley said, crouching down to Conan's level. He grabbed his bow tie and turned it around. "Hey, fancy gadget! So this is what you use to mimic my voice!" He gave Conan a glare of triumph as he continued. "I've been watching you out of the corner of my eye the whole time!"

"I…I got it in the mail!" Conan said lamely.

Harley let go of the bow tie. "You're not going to give up, are you? Well neither am I! I can't explain the body, but the way you talk, your deductions, it's Kudo, there's no doubt about it!"

"But I'm just a kid! I'm not Jimmy!"

"Okay, whatever you say." Harley replied with a bored look on his face. He got back up and immediately walked over to Rachel. "Hey, Rachel! I was just talking to Conan!"

Conan began to sweat. Sweat was pouring down his face by the time Harley almost finished.

"Now bear with me, this may be hard to believe but Conan is actually—"

"No wait, Harley you win!!!" Conan shouted just before Harley was about to reveal his secret.

Conan was annoyed at how Harley got him to tell the truth. It's his own fault if he dies, not mine. Not only that, but Harley made Conan, or rather, Jimmy, look bad by telling Rachel exactly what he said when Harley referred to Rachel as his "girlfriend". And only because Conan knocked him out with a tranquilizer! Why couldn't he be like Richard and Serena?

Then again, he had earned a great friend in Harley… and a great rival. Conan thought about this when his thoughts were broken by all-too-familiar voices.

"I can't believe you went to the wrong station, Harley!"

"It's not my fault! You're the one who insisted on it!"

Conan, Rachel, and Richard sweat-dropped. It was going to be a long day.

Author's Note: Shoot!!! It's not angsty enough!! D: What am I gonna do!? I'll lose my fans! Wait…do I even HAVE any fans? T_T

But still, Harley does cause a great deal of Conan's troubles, considering he's the only one who calls him "Kudo". :P But… he's sooooooo hawt! How can ANYONE not like someone like him? Well…my friend to be exact. But she does it because she thinks I'm funny when I'm angry.

Yayz! mangaluva approves! I'm sooooo glad you like it! Now I have even more motivation than before!

Oh, and it was Iyoushi who saved my butt, not Inyoushi. I misspelled his/her name. ^_^;;

By the way, the episodes referenced are 57 and 58(DC), 59 and 60(CC), 80 and 81(CC), and 77 and 78(DC). (darnit…I still can't find any Season 5 downloads or whatever for Case Closed…what happens if I use an episode that I know for DC, but not for CC and it's in Season 5!? Oh wait…I can use Wikipedia.)
