A certain matter had been bothering Shinichi for a while. He had been pushing it to the back of his mind, since it was not as pertinent when compared to the many others things on the shrunken detective's plate. Now though it was a rare lazy weekend afternoon, and he had been dumped by Ran at Agasa-hakase's house for babysitting. Aforementioned professor was currently adjusting Shinichi's shoes, leaving Shinichi alone with Ai.
"Hey, Haibara," he began, receiving a noncommittal grunt of acknowledgment from the scientist, who was currently engrossed in her own work.
"Where did the mass of our older bodies go to?"
Ai stopped at once and her back grew rigid. Shinichi watched with a raised eyebrow as she slowly turned to face him, a shadow snuffing the light out of her eyes and leaving her looking haunted.
"Trust me; you do not want to know."
Before Shinichi could respond to that the little scientist hopped off of the stool she had been sitting on and hurried out of the room, leaving the other shrunken teen alone.
Well, that was disconcerting, Shinichi reflected with a troubled expression. He really could not think of anything that could freak the former-Sherry out that much save for the Black Organization. The teen detective groaned with the realization that his morbid curiosity had been piqued, and he just had to know the answer to his question. With a sigh he headed off after Ai.
