Time: 1 day after Ran found out the truth
The scent of fried bacon wafted through Conan's senses as he entered the dining room. It was a school day so they had to wake up early although Kogoro was not awake yet. He knew Ran was cooking breakfast at the kitchen so he shouted a greeting before he entered the bathroom.
"Good morning, Ran-neechan!"
"Good morning, Conan-kun! Breakfast will be ready soon so wash your face first okay?"
"Haaai!"
Conan entered the bathroom and stepped onto the stool so that he could reach the sink.
'This sucks, I don't even remember doing this when I was young...'
And then Conan froze when he looked at the mirror.
'W-Wait... last night...'
His eyes widened as he recalled the previous day's event.
"AAAH!"
"Conan-kun!?" Ran came barging into the bathroom with a spatula in her hand when she heard the boy's shout. "What happened!?"
Conan mechanically turned his head towards Ran. "S-So it wasn't a dream?"
Ran was staring blankly at him. She blinked several times and laughed. "Unfortunately for you, no."
"..."
"Come on, you dork. Finish your business already because breakfast is already served. I'll go wake up Otou-san now." Before she left, Ran dropped a kiss on Conan's forehead and then waved. "Hurry up, okay?"
Let's just say it took the poor flushing boy a few minutes before his brain worked again.
'That girl is going to be the end of me...'
After helping Ran in putting away the dishes, Conan went back to his room to change his clothes. Then he grabbed his bag and found Ran waiting for him at the door.
"Let's go?"
"Hmm!"
They bid goodbye to Kogoro, who was listening to the damn horse race on the radio again, and walked outside together. By instinct, Ran grabbed Conan's hand while walking so that he wouldn't get lost along the way. It was a little later when she realized that it was Shinichi and she was holding hands with him ohmygod—
So she dropped Conan's hand like a piece of hot iron.
"S-Sorry!"
"Eh?" Conan blinked.
"I-it was a habit and uhm sorry uh—"
"Ran-neechan."
"—it was inappropriate of me to do that without your permission and it was embarrassing and I'm sorry—"
"Ran!"
"What!"
"It's fine. Ran-neechan can hold my hand whenever she wants."
"A-Ah?"
"So don't worry okay?" To prove his point, Conan grabbed Ran's hand and pulled her slightly to continue their walk.
"Ah if that's what you say..." She smiled and squeezed Conan's hand.
"Just relax, okay? We wouldn't want everyone to find out about our secret..." Conan whispered.
"Sorry. It's just new to me and all..." Ran smiled sheepishly.
Conan squeezed Ran's hand.
"It will be alright. Don't worry."
They smiled fondly at each other one last time before continuing their walk towards Teitan Elementary.
Ran dropped Conan off in front of his school but not without giving him a kiss on the cheek.
"See you later, Conan-kun!"
"R-Ran—!"
Ran just giggled at the flustered boy before leaving.
"—neechan..."
'Geez, I think I'm going to have a heart attack soon...'
"Heh, so much tension in the morning..."
"Gah!"
'Of course, she had to see it...'Conan just stared flatly at the girl behind him. "And good morning to you, too, Haibara."
"It's funny seeing the Great High School Detective of the East wrapped around Ran Mouri's finger..." Haibara flipped her hair lightly as she walked past him. "I know you hate being told off repeatedly but you should be more careful around her as always. That girl is very perceptive and the next time you slip up, I don't think it won't end up good. Remember, we don't want her to be involved."
"Cute as always, Haibara." He answered monotonously. "But of course, I won't forget."
"Good."
Conan laughed dryly.
'Ah, Haibara will definitely kill me if she knew that Ran already discovered my secret...
Well, not that she'll ever know. At least not until everything's over.'
"Raaaaaaan!"
The karate captain was suddenly engulfed into a hug by her female best friend, Sonoko Suzuki.
"G-Good morning, Sonoko...?"
"What's good in the morning when I know that my best friend has been miserable for weeks and I can't do anything about it!? I know it's about Shinichi-kun and I swear I'll kick him to the next century for making his wife worry—"
"Sonoko..."
"—I don't care if he's some sort of a soccer god but I'll definitely kick him where the sun doesn't shine and it won't be pretty—"
Ran sweatdropped. 'If it's about kicking, I could do that myself you know...'
"Sonoko, it's okay. I'm fine now. Sorry for worrying you." Ran smiled brightly at the short-haired girl.
Sonoko stared at Ran.
Sonoko stared long and hard at Ran that it made her a bit uncomfortable. She was startled when the girl suddenly shouted on her face.
"AH! I know that smile! Finally! Did you and Shinichi-kun...?"
"I don't know what you mean." Ran coughed.
"OH. MY. GOD."
"Sonoko..."
Sonoko squealed in delight. It was a miracle that people were not noticing the hyperactive girl but then again, it's a normal occurrence for the Suzuki Corporation heiress so they're probably used to it.
"I knew it! All of my investment towards you two has turned out great! Thirteen years of pinning you two together ohmygod—"
'What are we, stocks?'
"Sonoko..."
Luckily for the exasperated Ran, the school bell rang.
"O-Oh look at the time, let's go to the classroom?"
"Awww. I'll get the details out of you later, Ran. Don't think you can escape the Deduction Queen, Sonoko-sama!"
'Of course, you will...'
Ran warily laughed. "Yes, yes. Now let's go before the tardy bell rings."
"Oh no! I don't want to be late! Let's go, Ran!" Sonoko grabbed Ran's arm and dragged her towards their classroom.
'Sorry, Sonoko. As much as I wanted to tell you everything, I can't. Not yet. I can't put you in danger, too...' She smiled bitterly. 'Now I know how Shinichi felt whenever he's around me... He was trying to keep everything from me to keep me safe yet he also wanted to tell me everything—All that while dealing with his 'small' predicament. I keep wondering whether I did the right thing cornering him to confess or not... But the look on his face when he was breaking down tells me that he really needed me to be by his side so that he won't lose himself. So I will not waste my time regretting something that I have decided a long time ago—
To be by his side whatever happens.'

From: Conan-kun
Subj: After school
...
'Ran-neechan,
I'll be going with the Detective Boys after school to help with a case. I'll tell you the details later. See you at home.
-Conan.
P.S. Be safe.'
/
"Is it your husband?"
"Gah—Sonoko! You surprised me..."
"Sorry, sorry. You just had that smile and I thought that your husband texted you."
"A-ah no, no. It was Conan-kun. He was just telling me that he's going to go somewhere with his friends after school."
'Well, technically it's still from Shinichi...'
"Ah so it was just the four-eyed brat."
"Don't be mean, Sonoko. Anyway, where is this new ice cream shop that you've been telling me since last night?"
"Oh! It's just a few streets away from your house."
"Wow, that's great! Maybe I can bring Conan-kun next time since he's busy today."
"Ooooh. Planning a date with your replacement husband, eh?"
"Geez, Sonoko!"
"Fine, fine I'll stop now." Ran breathed out a sigh of relief. "But I still need the details about Shinichi-kun!"
'Sonoko's really persistent as usual...'
"Yes, yes. But actually it was just nothing. He called last night and my mood just lifted instantly..."
"Ah... True love..."
Ran's face was red in an instant.
"A-anyway, I was just stressed with the exams. There was no karate practiceduring finals week so I wasn't able to vent it out... And when Shinichi called, err well, let's just say that he's probably deaf by now."
Sonoko laughed not pitying the high school detective.
"But are you sure you're really okay now, Ran?" Sonoko was really worried about Ran. She noticed weeks ago that her best friend has been keeping something to herself again and that it was eating her friend inside out. But she knew that she can't do anything about it unless Ran asks for help.
And that was the problem, Ran is a selfless person. She wouldn't bother anyone because of her problems so she tries to solve it on her own. Before Shinichi disappeared, he was the only one who was able to detect Ran's troubles in a flash. Also, he was also the only one who could spill it out to them. Being a detective in addition to being a childhood friend is a very good combination in making Ran fess up about her problems. After Shinichi left, Sonoko felt that it was now her job to take care of Ran and tried her best to make her less lonely. Even though the karate champion looked happy on the outside, she knew it was opposite on the inside.
Ran was the only person who saw right through Sonoko. Since she's an heiress, not everyone who meets her has the purest of intentions. But with Ran, she's just Sonoko. Not the snobbish, rich girl but just a normal high school girl. So she tried really hard to bring Ran along in different trips, of course as long as Ran could afford it. That and Ran's luck was overflowing that she always gets free stuff.
If we didn't include the murder cases along it, sure.
So when Ran showed up this morning, Sonoko noticed that her friend was radiating with happiness that it made her cry.
Because the normal Ran was back.
Ran noticed the genuine concern of her friend. She blinked her eyes to prevent her tears from falling and smiled. "Thank you for worrying about me, Sonoko. You really are a good friend and I'm glad you're with me."
Sonoko sniffed. "Raaaaan! You're making me cryyyy!"
"Now, now Sonoko." The long-haired girl patted Sonoko's shoulder. "Wait— is that ice cream that's calling our names? Ara, look at that, we're already here!"
"Oooh, you're right! Let's get the largest parfait, my treat!"
"Oh no, I can pay—"
"SHHH. This is a celebration and you and Shinichi-kun's love so as a loyal fan, I should pay."
"E-EH?! Sonoko w-what—"
Ran was not able to finish her sentence as she was dragged once again by her energetic best friend.
'Really, I'm glad that I met you, Sonoko.
...And sorry for keeping something from you. I promise we'll tell you someday... Shinichi and I will.'

From: Ran-neechan
Subj: Take care!
...
'Okay, Conan-kun. See you later at home. Oh by the way, we'll be having hamburger for dinner. I hope that's alright with you.
Be careful, okay? I can't help but always worry especially if it's about a case. Please say hi to the kids for me, okay? Don't be reckless!
Love, Ran-neechan.
P.S. I'm with Sonoko right now and we're going to go to the newly opened ice cream shop near the house. Maybe we could visit next time?'
/
Along with the mail was Ran's picture with her holding a gigantic parfait. Color red suddenly invaded the poor detective's face.
'Save, save.' After he was done, he quickly pocketed his phone and joined the rest of the Detective Boys. He lagged a few steps behind earlier when he was reading Ran's mail.
They were on their way towards Tokyo MPD Headquarters because the simple case of finding an amulet has turned into a murder case. As usual. So Takagi-keiji needed to take their statements since they—or rather Conan but they didn't have to know that—solved the case.
"Hey guys, Ran-neechan told me to say hi to you for her."
"Ah, Conan-kun! Tell her we said hi, too!" Ayumi chirped.
"Ran-neechan is so nice..." It was Mitsuhiko.
"Yeah, I remember her buying me unagi rice..."
"Genta-kun..." Everyone aside from Genta sweatdropped.
"Edogawa-kun is lucky to have her as a caretaker, eh?" It was Haibara this time. The kids agreed.
But Conan roughly translated Haibara's statement as, "Kudo-kun is so whipped he can't even refuse a single request from his beloved."
'She never passes up a chance, eh?'
"Guess so." Conan stared flatly at Haibara then coughed to change the topic. "Anyway, I called Agasa-hakase and he'll bring us home after we're done. He also called your parents to inform them that you will be home later than usual."
"Okayyy!" Ayumi, Mitsuhiko and Genta chorused in reply.
'It was a tiring day yet they're so full of energy as always...'
It was 5:30 in the afternoon when the questioning ended.
"Thanks for the time, kids. Good work. You can go home now." Takagi smiled at the children.
"Haiiiiii. Thanks for your hard work!" They chorused.
Takagi stood up from his office chair and led the Detective Boys towards the exit. "Take care on your way home! And I hope you don't attract murder cases again."
'Sorry about being a murder magnet then...'
"Yes, Takagi-keiji! Agasa-hakase is already waiting for us outside." Conan answered with fake cheer.
"Ah Agasa-san. Say hi to him for me, okay?"
'This is the second time today...'
"Haaai. Bye bye Takagi-keiji!" Conan waved and ran towards his friends who were already flocking around Agasa-hakase while hounding him excitedly with the details about the case.
Conan smiled. Even though being stuck in a child's body sucks, it was fun to solve mysteries with Ayumi, Mitsuhiko and Genta. He felt a brotherly connection towards them and decided that there was a need to protect them from harm. So he helps them with their deductions so that when they grow up, they will become great people who will make him proud. And when the time comes when he's able to return to his true age and of course after the Black Organization is defeated, he promises to give them one last adventure before he tells them the truth.
Maybe Ran can help him on this one. She's better with children anyway.
"Tadaima!"
"Okaeri, Conan-kun!"
"Where's Oji-san?"
"Ah, he's just getting his recording of Yoko-san's drama earlier. He wasn't able to watch it because he was following someone for a case."
"What case?"
"Hmm... I think it was an adultery case."
Conan laughed dryly. 'Same old, same old.'
"How was your day, Ran-neechan?"
"Oh since finals has just finished, it was not loaded. Not much homework and activities. Karate practice will resume soon so I'll be going home later than usual again. And the ice cream shop that I was talking about in the mail that I sent you was great! Did you see the picture I attached?"
'Yes... Yes, I did and I saved it somewhere nobody can reach. I don't want a repeat of last time...'
"I saw it! The parfait looked great, Ran-neechan! Let's try it next time?"
'Not just the parfait, though...'
"Okay! But not tomorrow since I ate a lot of it today."
"Okay. Just tell me when!"
"Of course! It's a date then!" They both blushed. "How about you, Conan-kun? How was your day?"
Ran giggled when she saw the bored look on Conan's face.
"We were looking for a lost amulet and we found murder instead."
"Why am I not surprised... Are you sure you don't want to be exorcised for being a murder magnet? Shinigami-sama might have possessed you..."
"Haha, funny." Conan just stared flatly at Ran while the girl was busy giggling at the boy's reaction.
"Anyway, so what happened?"
"We were looking for the amulet at a classmate's house. It was given to him by his biological mother who died when he was four. We found it. Turns out it was just stuck under the carpet. When we were getting ready to go home, we heard a scream. I rushed to where the scream originated and found a body in the bathroom. The victim was confirmed to be my classmate's stepmother."
"That's horrible... Losing two mothers at a young age." Ran frowned.
"Yeah. The method was simple. Someone laced the victim's lipstick with cyanide. The culprit knew that the victim always wore her favorite lipstick so they used that as a way to deliver the poison."
"Where do these people buy those poisonous things... It's like most murder cases that involved poisoning uses cyanide."
"True. Cyanide is often used because even a drop can instantly kill victim had a habit of licking her lips so when she applied the lipstick, the poison got into her tongue and that's it."
"So it means that the culprit is very close to her?"
"Yes, since they knew about their habits and favorite lipstick."
"So who did it then?"
"There were three suspects. Her husband, her bestfriend and her ex-boyfriend. All of them knew about her habit but one of them slipped something unusual to us. The culprit told us that they were in Kanagawa at the time of death. Kanagawa is one hour from Beika. Perfect alibi, right?" Ran nodded in agreement. "Though when Takagi-keiji verified if that was true, they weren't able to find the culprit's name in any form of public transport systems towards Kanagawa. They insisted that they rode a car but they weren't able to show us their toll pass ticket."
"Wow, that was bold of them to use that alibi..."
"They thought the police would find it bothersome to check everything. But they even checked the CCTV recordings of the roads they were supposed to be traveling on but they never saw the culprit's car and plate number."
"And that's where their plan was ruined."
"Yes. The culprit was the best friend."
"Really? What was the evidence that you found?"
"Takagi-keiji traced the order form of the lipstick that the victim had. He found out that the lipstick was new and rare and that only four people were able to buy it in that particular color. It was strange that the victim's name did not come up in the list but instead, the best friend's name showed up and it was found out that the lipstick was a gift from her a day ago. Also, traces of cyanide were found in the culprit's passenger seat. Apparently, she just dumped the container there after injecting the poison. That was careless of her."
"What was her reason...?"
Conan smiled sadly. "Jealousy and misunderstanding. The best friend thought that the victim was going behind her back by flirting with her boyfriend. But the thing is— the victim just needed help from the best friend's boyfriend to buy her a gift in exchange for the lipstick that she gave to her. They found the gift inside the victim and her husband's room."
"That's terrible..." Ran was tearing up.
Conan grabbed her hand and stroked it with his thumb to soothe the crying girl. "Every murder case is terrible, Ran..."
"I know but they really didn't have to kill... It's better to talk it out to make their relationship work. And now, more people are in grief. Especially that kid..." Ran weakly laughed while wiping her tears. "Sorry for being overly emotional..."
"It's okay, Ran. That's who you are." Conan— Shinichi smiled at Ran. "You should never be ashamed of it. Please never change."
Ran smiled. "Thank you, Conan-kun." '—Shinichi.'
"You're welcome, Ran-neechan!" Conan grinned childishly at the taller girl. "Now stop crying, okay?"
"Okay, Conan-kun. Help me with dinner?"
"Okay!"
And that was when Kogoro came in.
"Eh? What's happening here?"
Ran and Conan just stared at the newcomer.
"What? Did I miss something here?"
The two just laughed.
"Bah! Laughing for no reason. Weird kids."
"Don't worry about it, Otou-san. I was just asking Conan-kun to help me with dinner."
"That brat should really help you since he's just freeloading here!"
Both Ran and Conan stared flatly at the older man.
'Not that my parents paid you millions of yen for my expenses...'
"You're more like the freeloader here, Otou-san! I'm always cleaning up after you! Now set the table." Ran glare could almost freeze even hell.
Kogoro squeaked in fright. "H-hai, Ran-chan..."
Ran smiled brightly as if nothing happened. "Thank you, Otou-san!"
Conan heard the man mumble the words 'scary' and 'should have never let her learn karate'.
'Haha. You never learn, Occhan...'
"Now Conan-kun, let's leave that grumpy old man behind and prepare dinner, okay?"
"Okay, let's go Ran-neechan!"
Both ignored Kogoro's protest about not being a grumpy old man because he's the Great Detective Sleeping Kogoro, damn it!
"The kids wanted me to tell you that they said hi."
"Oh thank you, that was sweet of them."
Silence.
"Ran, when everything's over, will you help me with the kids?"
'Will you be my strength when I finally tell them the truth?'
Ran smiled fondly at her love.
"Of course, Shinichi. I'll always be with you."
"Thank you."
Hattori Heiji, the Great High School Detective of the West was watching a baseball game when he received a call from Kudo. He excused himself from Kazuha, his childhood friend who was watching the game with him. The girl raised her eyebrow.
'Kudo?'
'Kudo.'
Kazuha nodded and let the ahou take his damn call from Ran-chan's boyfriend.
"Oi Kudo, wassup?"
"..."
"Kudo?"
"H-Hattori-kun?"
Heiji did not expect to hear a familiar female voice.
'SHIT.'
"N-Neechan!?"
"Yes, Hattori-kun?"
"A-ah! N-neechan! I- uhm t-t'is phone ah... Why did ya call?"
"I just needed to confirm something with you."
"A-an' tha' is...?"
'Why do I get ta feelin' tha' I'm makin' a big mistake...?'
"Why are you always calling Conan-kun, Kudo? For example, when I called you just now. I used Conan-kun's phone, you know? He lent me this because my phone was soaked and I just put it in rice to dry off."
'Damn it, Kudo!'
"N-No uhm I-I just read the caller ID wrong...?"
"You always found a way to cover your slip ups and luckily we believed you but thinking about how many times it happened, I think there's something more to it..."
Silence.
"As I've thought..."
Now, Hattori Heiji knew that Kudo will kill him because of this. Or Neechan. With Kazuha.
He shivered at the thought.
"A-As I've thought wha'...?"
"That Conan-kun and Shinichi are..." And Hattori heard a sob.
"A-Ah N-neechan! Argh! I told Kudo ta tell ya a'ready but noooo, he has t'is big ego and he's like 'no, I will protect Ran even if we're both hurt emotionally' tha' ahou! I've a'ways told 'im to fess up 'cause it'll make his life easier but ta stubborn ahou can't—"
"Hattori-kun—"
"Sorry ya had ta find out like t'is but I knew t'is would happen someday 'cause yer smart an' perceptive an' ya knowin' will definitely help Kudo with his problem an' ya can definitely protect yerself but ugh I also understand Kudo's point'cause I'd probably do wha' he did ta Kazuha if it happened ta me—"
"Hattori-kun...?"
"I kno' it's hard ta believe tha' Kudo shrunk into a kid but ta evidence is there an' please forgive Kudo 'cause he did it with yer safety in mind an' 'cause he loves you an'—"
"Hattori-kun!"
"H-Hai...?"
And Hattori heard a laugh... which sounded like a child's...?
"Hattori...y-you are..."
"Kudo!? Wait wha' 'bout Nee-chan—"
"Ah, that was fun."
And then it clicked.
The damn voice changing bowtie!
"YA AHOU YA TRICK'D ME—"
"Sorry, sorry." Conan wheezed. "Just testing you. And wow, you failed miserably Hattori. Thanks for protecting my identity." The pseudo kid said dryly.
"W-Wha—"
"Actually, I'm calling using Shinichi's phone. If you just bothered to check the damn caller ID then you'll know."
"I- erm—"
"But nevermind that, Hattori. I have a question for you."
"I'm still mad a' ya. Dammit Kudo, I a'most had a heart attack! I a'most saw ta light..."
'I almost saw Neechan an' Kazuha pummel me ta oblivion...'
"Sorry. But that was really necessary before I ask this question." Hattori halted as he detected the seriousness in Shinichi's voice.
"'Kay, I'll listen ta it. But try anythin' funny and I'll—"
"Sure, sure you'll beat me with a shinai and feed me to the dogs. But here's the question, do you really think that I should tell Ran that Shinichi Kudo and Conan Edogawa are one and the same?"
"W-Wha' drove ya' to ask t'is question...?"
"Just answer me, Hattori."
"Yeah, ya should."
"Okay, thanks."
"'kay—wait, tha's all!?"
"Yep. Treat it as a survey. Bye, Hattori!"
"Oi! Wait yer really goin' to...?"
"Are you an idiot? No way."
And the shrunken detective hanged up.
"THEN WHY DID YA EVEN CALL, YA AHOU!?"
"HEIJI, SHUT UP YA AHOU I'M WA'CHING AN' I CAN'T HEAR IT 'CAUSE OF YER YAMMERIN'!"
"ARGH!"
"SHUT UP!"
After the phone call at Ran's room,
"That was mean, Shinichi."
"Nah, I was just teasing him. But it's not like it was not you who talked to him at first."
"Well, I just wanted to find out if he really did know."
"Yep, and he found me out. He blackmailed me that he'll tell you so... yeah."
"Hmmm. But I think I feel a little better when he told me that he always suggested that you tell me."
"Yeah, Hattori is a very honest person. And I must admit that it was a very tempting suggestion. I almost succumbed many times..."
"You endured for so long, eh?" Ran stroked Shinichi's head gently.
"Yeah... and sorry that I'm not really sorry about that... but it doesn't matter now, right? You know now. You cornered me perfectly."
Ran smiled sadly. "I'm sorry for forcing you again... I know I should have waited as usual but—"
"What's done is done, Ran. It's okay." Then he snickered. "It just means that you have learned well from the true Meitantei."
"Oh shut up."
"I am so proud of you."
"Shinichi!"
"Sorry, sorry. Can't help it. I missed this..."
"Me, too. Even if we can only do this late at night in my room..."
"Ran, as much as I'd love to, I am just in an eight-year old body and—"
"Do you want me to punch you into the earth?"
"Sorry, Ran-chan..."
"But seriously, it kinda feels like an adventure. Hiding our secret that is."
Shinichi stared flatly at Ran.
"Ran, it was torture for me and it's an adventure to you?"
"Oh sorry, that's not what I meant. Adventure because we're doing something together again after a long time... Well at least for me." Ran sheepishly admitted. "And we'll never know what will happen in the future but as long as we're in it together then it's fine with me."
"R-Ran..."
"Also, I'm saving you from the wrath of many people by not telling them that I knew."
Shinichi laughed dryly.
"Well, they can guess as much as they want but I won't fess up." Shinichi smirked. "And I say we're doing a good job not letting them know."
"Yeah, we really make a great team."
They high-fived each other.
"Makes you wanna regret not telling me sooner, eh?"
"Nope, I'm not listening."
"Oh children should just go to bed now. They might not grow taller if they miss their sleep."
"...That's a low blow, Ran..."
Ran giggled then surprised Shinichi with a peck on the forehead. "Oh get over it."
Shinichi just grunted in reply.
"Now, off you go!" Ran patted Shinichi's back to get him off the bed.
"Hai, hai. Good night, Ran." Shinichi kissed Ran's cheek.
"Good night, Shinichi!"
Yay for Sonoko and DB interactions! Also poor Hattori haha! Sorry for the failed attempt in Osaka-ben Eng. ver hahahuhu
About Sonoko, I love how she is true to herself despite having lots of money at her disposal. She helps Ran in cleaning Shinichi's house, she does chores and she is not snobbish. I guess she owes it to Ran because come on, she is an angel sent by above who can make you cry in happiness and fear at the same time haha jk Sonoko has her own quirks but I know she thinks a lot of Ran's well-being, too!
I wonder what Conan has planned when the day finally comes for him to tell the kids the truth? (Yes I'm going to let the kids know later on.)
I still have no idea where this fanfic is going... Wait I do but it's still very vague and I still don't know if I'm really going to place some proper plot in her or just have some fun moments here and there plus fluff...
But basically I just wanted ran and conan to prank everyone HAHA kidding
Thanks for reading! :D
