The epilogue is here! Contains a time skip, and a happy ending typical for my stories.
Epilogue
Six months later…
Ran was walking down the street. She was missing Shinichi again. Suddenly, she received a call from Shinichi. Or rather a text.
Ran,
I've finished the case finally. It's finally over. There's a lot of wrap-up work to do, so I don't know when I'll be home, but I know it won't be too long. So hang in there!
Love,
Shinichi
P.S. Miyano sends her regards.
Ran was too happy at this to notice that only Shiho's name was at the bottom. Ran went home skipping in joy.
The next morning, the story of the defeat of the Black Organization was all over all the news channels.
"And so," said the newscaster, "the defeat of this criminal organization is owed to the American FBI and a local Japanese boy by the name of Edogawa Conan. Conan-kun has been living with the Meitantei Mouri Kogoro for well over a year, and it is speculated that he learned the skills necessary from Mouri-tantei. In other news…"
Ran quit listening after this, as she was so shocked at all the proceedings.
Then the door opened, and Conan entered. "Morning Ran," he said, walking over to the table to grab some food.
Ran looked at him incredulously, and noticed that he wasn't wearing his glasses. Then she realized that he'd called her 'Ran' and not 'Ran-neechan' as was normal for him. Ran put two and two together and said, "Shinichi?"
Conan looked up at her and said, "You have the same look as you did at the summer camp, Ran."
"SHINICHI!" exclaimed Ran. She ran up and hugged him tight. Then she let go of him and said, "Shinichi, you've got some serious explaining to do. So start talking. And if I like your explanation, you might get off easy."
Conan gulped and decided to start. "Well, it all started when I followed those men in black at Tropical Land…"
Yeah, so Conan tells Ran the truth. There's been enough stories about him spilling the beans, so I didn't really say anything about that.
For those who didn't pick up on it, the Organization has been defeated. Everyone mentioned in this chapter survives, and that includes the three kids. So don't get any wrong ideas and flame me.
With this chapter, this story is officially done! I had a ton of work while writing this, and combining that with Writer's Block and my Boy Scout Eagle Project does not make a good combination. But I got in done finally, and I'm proud of the results, even if I have to deal with only one or two people reviewing.
My next story will be Part 2 in my 'Minami Edogawa' series. Access Part 1 from my profile now, and I'll post the first chapter to Part 2 before long. Until then, THANKS FOR READING AND REVIEWING!
