CHAPTER 9: AND THE CASES NEVER END.

2 hours later...

9:10

"There it is! Come on Conan-kun! We sit on the front!" Ran dragged Conan to the coaster, payed the admission and pulled him on the first seat.

"You know, Conan-kun, me and Shinichi sat here too. Exact same place. You're sitting on the seat where he was sitting." she put on a smile.

"What happened then, Ran-neechan?" Conan asked like he didn't know anything.

"Well, when we went into the dark tunnel, someone got killed and Shinichi figured out who it was. I was scared when I saw someone die but now I'm used to it, you know. First I thought it was those two guys in black but it turned out to be the victim's ex-girlfriend. I don't understand why those two guys came here in the first place, it didn't even look like they were enjoying themselves either.."

The coaster started it's way up slowly.

"Anyways.. after that we were walking home when Shinichi turned around and then he said to me "Don't worry, I'll catch up with you later." and ran towards this alley. But he didn't. I think he saw something so that's why he went there. He didn't meet with me later. I was so worried! I wondered what had happened to him. I called his house but no one answered. My head filled with worries. What if something horrible happened to him?"

Conan stared at her. The roller coaster then fell towards the ground and made a circle in the air. Ran grabbed Conan's hand. After they started going up for a second time, she continued talking.

"So then I decided to go Agasa-hakase's house. You know he's one of Shinichi's best friends. But then ah... I met you! Turns out Shinichi was okay. The day he disappeared, you came. Yeah, but Shinichi called me after. I was glad. I hadn't lost him completely, you were there. Just like.. Shinichi."

Oi oi. What is she hinting at?

"Hey isn't that the kokosei-tantei?"

"Yeah, I've heard about him a lot!"

"Who? Sleeping Kogoro?"

"No no, Kudo Shinichi."

"Oh, him.. I haven't seen him on the news for some time, I wonder what happened.."

Conan and Ran turned around to see two couples staring at them.

"Sumimasen, I heard the end of your conversation while we were stopping." said the middle-aged man behind Conan.

"It's okay." said Ran.

"I'm Isamu. This is my girlfriend Akane-san." Isamu pointed to the woman who's hair wad dyed red, sitting next to him who smiled.

"That's Kaori-san, my friend from highschool," the woman with the short black hair and glasses didn't react. "and that's her boyfriend Robert-san. We just met him this morning. Kaori told us that he met him at the collage he went in New York. He's American but he knows Nihongo pretty well."

"Hajimemashite, this is Conan. He's a little-tantei who always gets into trouble. And I'm Ran Mouri. Conan-kun's staying with us for a while."

"Trouble?" Isamu asked.

"Well, my father's a private detective and whenever a case happens, he's always around. Sometimes he solves cases with his friends, and last week... Ah, last week this creep tried to get revenge on Conan-kun for sending his brother to jail. He helped the police a lot on that case, you see." Ran explained.

"Oh I see. Looks like he got a lucky break, didn't he?" Akana said.

Conan felt eyes boring onto him and looked around to find Robert watching him suspiciously. Conan turned around without any reaction.

"So this Kudo Shinichi, kokosei-tantei.. is he your boyfriend?" Akane asked as everyone got off the ride. Conan went immediately red.

"Well.. not really. We're just best friends since we were little you know, and he's a crazy case fanatic anyway.." Ran mumbled.

Crazy case fanatic... So? Hmph.

Akane laughed. "Don't lie to yourself, I can see it in your eyes.. And he's an awesome detective I've heard."

"Well, I guess." Ran said and she joined the laughter.

"We'll be going to the Mirror House on the left. Do you guys want to join us?" Isami asked them.

"What do you think Conan-kun? Should we?"

"Yes, Ran-neechan." Conan looked at the two couple without them noticing. The girl called Kaori was clutching Robert's hand tightly who didn't let go. She had only talked once since they met and Robert had never talked. Even though Isamu and Akana were cheery and happy, these two seemed awfully quiet. It was like Conan was back at the day that he'd been poisoned again. Hadn't Gin and Vodka acted the same, cheerless, even though they were supposed to be at an Amusement Park?

He quietly walked behind Ran and the others as they arrived the mirror house.

"Actually Conan-kun, would you like to drink some smoothie?" Ran said. "I could go and get some, I don't really like Mirror House that much anyway, it's creepy."

"Hai!" Conan responded and entered the Mirror House after the two couples. There weren't much people inside according to the man selling the tickets. Even in the entrance, the mirrors were lined up on the sides, making people's appearances look extremely different. He walked straight and turned the corner without looking at where he was going. He was focused on the mirrors. Some made him look fat, some made him too skinny and some made him taller.

If only I was back to my original height...

Conan couldn't see Kaori and Robert anymore. They must have walked faster in the distance. He could hear Isamu and Akane talking and laughing somewhere in the distance.

Just then Conan heard a shatter.

The lights went out. He heard a few people call out to each other.

"Is it a power outage?"

"Where are you, Kaori-san?"

"Did a mirror break?"

"Hey! What the hell's going on?"

"Sumimasen, please make way, I'm here to fix the light. Sumimasen.."

The lights came back on.

Just then, someone screamed.

A/N: NOW... I want you guys to guess who died. In DC, the people who die are usually obvious. Well, to me anyway. SO.. Guess now AND NEXT CHAPTER YOU'LL LEARN! See you later and remember... I'll be watchin'! (Stalker. You better review or ELSE. *evil glare*)
