LXXXVII: Kudou and Hattori
Two pairs of feet pounded on the pavement as they neared the building Saguru had said was where the second set of sniper and spotter were. According to the blond, they were stationed on the topmost floor, having taken a window out instead of positioning themselves on the roof. Heiji and Shinichi panted heavily as they leapt into the elevator and pressed the button for the topmost floor.
"KID," Shinichi huffed, "Status?"
"Still alive," the phantom thief answered with a thread of pain in his voice. Then he chuckled and without warning broke out into song, complete with an android female voice:
"And believe me I am still alive.
I'm doing science and I'm still alive—"
"Oh my god," Saguru groaned across the line.
"What is he singing?" Heiji asked confusedly, glancing at Shinichi.
Shinichi, for his part, had facepalmed. "Seriously, KID?" he grumbled into the earpiece.
"—I feel FANTASTIC and I'm still alive.
While you're dying I'll be—" he grunted, and a muted thwack could be heard, "—still alive.
And when you're dead I will be still alive.
"Still alive.
"Still alive."
"That's… that's morbid, man," Heiji muttered, and KID chuckled.
"Well, that's what happens when you're immortal, Tantei-han."
"KID," Shinichi said, "Please… just shut up."
Author's Note: I have no excuse for this one. For those of you who aren't gigantic nerds like me, the song is called Still Alive from the game Portal. I hope you enjoyed it.
