Chapter 22

After all what happened this afternoon, they went to their home. In the night, Conan was looking at his room's ceiling, when his cell phone suddenly rang.

"Hello, who's speaking?", he didn't know who called him because there's no caller ID.

"It's me cool kid, it's me Jodie.", said a woman through the phone.

"Jodie-sensei? Why do you call me late night?", he asked.

"Oh, I'm sorry. It's bright over here….. Actually we've got information about them.", said Jodie.

"What THEM? Tell me.", said Conan.

"Yeah, our spy managed to send us some information about them. He said that they would have an organization's meeting next week. He said that all of the members would be there.", she answered.

"Is that true? Then what will you do?", he asked.

"We have contacted FBI and Special Squad from other countries to help us shut them down. And actually I want to ask you to join us. With your skill and training for ten years under our supervision, you definitely one of the best."

"Okay, of course I'll join. But don't tell anyone about me joining, especially Ai.", he said.

"That's the deal. So you call that girl, Ai now. I think you usually call her Haibara.", she asked.

"That doesn't matter. I'll cut down now. Send me a message about the location.", said Conan.

"Roger.", she anwered.

Then Conan took some of his clothes. After he packed them, he wrote a note and placed it on his desk. He slowly walked outside his room. At that time, he thought everyone was sleeping; he didn't want them to know about it because it would make them worried. But, she saw her room's door, he couldn't fight the urge to see her for the last time. He went into her room and saw her sleeping peacefully. Suddenly, the memories of theirs flashed back to him. Her transfer to Teitan Elementary School and then her confession about her connected to Black Organization, she cried when she thought about Akemi and times he saved her and she saved pulled her blanket to cover her and kissed her forehead. "I'll miss you, Shiho. Don't worry I'll fulfill my oath. I love you Shiho." He closed the door and went downstairs. Just when he was about to go outside of the house someone appeared.

"Shinichi, where are you going in this late ?", Yusaku asked.

"Otousan, actually I'll go to America. I'll join FBI and bring them down forever.", he's serious.

"Why do you go silently? Are you not telling anyone about this?", Yusaku worried. Although he knew his son well, he's still worried about him.

"I'm sorry Otousan, please don't tell anyone about this. It'll make them worried. Just tell them I'm going to a trip or up to you.", he asked his father.

"Shinichi, just promise me you'll come back alive.", said Yusaku.

"I promise.", then he left his house to go to the airport. He had to be in America immediately.

"Sorry, Otousan. I'm not sure if I can come back alive.", he thought.

- In the morning -

Everyone woke up as usual. Yukiko then cooked for breakfast. Yusaku seeped his coffee while reading the newspaper. But Ai, she's looking for her so-called step brother, her best friend, and her love.

"Okaasan, where is Shinichi-kun?", Ai asked her mother.

"I don't know, maybe he is still sleeping. Why don't you wake him up?" she suggested.

"Okay", she went upstairs.

She walked towards his room. "That heavy sleeper. Why he don't wake up as usual?", she thought.

She opened the door. She's surprised because she didn't find him there. She saw neat bed and nobody there. Then she noticed something on his desk. She read it. Then she ran downstairs.

Sorry Shiho, I leave you without telling you. I'll be gone for a while. I have something to do. Please don't worry about me. I'll be okay. I'm just helping a friend. I'll come back soon. Please tell my parents too.

After she read what written, she ran downstairs.

"Okaasan, he's gone. He isn't in his room.", she burst out.

"What, what do you mean?", Yukiko was confused.

"Shinichi is gone. He just left this in his room.", said Ai.

Then Yukiko read it.

"Anata, do you know where he is?", she worried.

"If I recalled, he told me that he went for a trip. He said that his friend needed him. So he went there. He also said that you didn't have to worry about him. He'll be okay.", Yusaku answered calmly.

"So that's what happened." The two women sighed.

Ai walked to her school. Although his father had said that, still she worried him. She couldn't be relaxed. She's always thinking about him even in her class.

-In the class-

"Then let me roll your name?", Ran yelled.

"Akira Shimazaki."

"Present"

…..

"Edogawa Conan"

"_"

"Ai-chan, do you know where Conan-kun is? Is he sick? Why does he miss his school today?"

"I don't know, he just said that he'll be gone for a while.", she answered with deep tone.

"So that's the case. I hope he'll be back soon. Then let's continue."

Ran had done it then she continued her lesson. Ai seemed very blank. She didn't listen everything what Ran said, although that's usual, but she's very worried about him that she didn't know that the class was over.

"Ai-chan, what's the matter? You look so pale. Are you sick? Then let me take you to the infirmary.", said Ayumi.

"Thanks but I'm okay. I just don't fell too well today.", she answered.

"Then you must eat. Maybe you're feeling sick because you haven't eat yet.", Ayumi tried to cheer her and help her.

"Yeah, I didn't eat anything in the morning.", she answered.

Ai said that before she fainted. Ayumi and the others were very surprised and panicked, and then they brought her to infirmary. There she lied on the bed.

"She's okay. She just has a lot of things in her mind. If she rests enough, she will be okay soon" said Ms. Mikami, the school nurse.

"Oh, we thought she's sick. Thank you sensei, we must go to our class.", said the three.

"Of course, I'll accompany her.", said Ms. Mikami.
