AN: Please support the official release! (- only doing this 'cause I can't think of anything to say. Also, This is a suspense fiction 3:)
(Shinichi)
"Wow! That's pretty scary! What did your dad say?" Ran looked blue with fear, but still interested in what Shinichi had to say.
"He said, 'I'll do it. Let them go.' he didn't sound happy at all. I'm really curious as to what this deal is. Wanna check it out?"
The two children were sitting on the floor of Shinichi's bedroom. Ran had come over unexpectedly to play. Not wanting to send Ran away, the Kudo's forced the kids out of the living room so the parents could have a long chat 'Not for Children's ears'.
"What!? No, Shinichi we can't do that!"
"Why not? I even asked Hakase if I could borrow one of his inventions. If you press a button, you can listen in on conversations from somewhere else. You just have to put this other button near the person you want to eavesdrop on."
"Did he say yes?" Shinichi snorted.
"Of course not. That's why I took it while his back was turned."
"Shinichi! That's stealing."
"Not if I give it back. Come on, Ran. Aren't you curious too?" Ran pouted.
"What if we get in trouble?"
"We just won't get in trouble, then." Ran glared at him, then nodded her head slowly. Shinichi pulled out a little contraption from his jacket pocket and pressed the button.
"I knew you were going to say yes, so I already had it installed." He grinned at Ran, who just rolled her eyes.
"...assassinate some business owner. I believe his name was Kachibano Sanjiko." Came Yusaku's voice. Ran gasped, her eyes widening, but Shinichi listened attentively.
"*Gasp* Don't do it! You can't just kill someone!" Yukiko retorted. Ran nodded, agreeing with Shinichi's mom.
"If I don't play along with them, they'll hurt you and Shinichi." Ran frowned. Shinichi would have laughed at all the expressions she was making, but the conversation was too serious.
"We could just run away and-."
"And leave others, like the Mori's, to their wrath until we return?" Ran shrunk down a little.
"I'll figure out some way to stop them. But, for the time being, just lay low with Shinichi," Yusaku continued, "Don't draw attention to yourselves. I know he can be a little hot-headed and curious, like me, but I don't want to get him involved." Shinichi frowned, mouthing 'Hot-headed?' Ran covered her mouth to hide her giggling. Shinichi shook his head, tuning his attention back to his parents.
"I don't know how long I'll be gone. When It's over, they probably won't let me back out. Until then, just tell Shinichi I'm going on a business trip for my new story." Shinichi narrowed his eyes, They're going to lie to me? Shinichi turned off the contraption.
"I think that's all. So, wanna check out the organization dad's working for now?" Ran's face was comical.
"That's even worse than eavesdropping!" She cried, "And how are you going to check out an organization you've never heard of?"
"Well... One of the members was named 'Orihojo' So I could look up businesses in the area for that name. They also all had a 'T' somewhere on their attire. The old guy had it on his watch, the big guy had it on his t-shirt and Mr. Orihojo had it on his bandana. I could tell when he picked me up the first time. The watch on the old guy I saw when he grabbed my hair. I saw the t-shirt's 'T' when the big guy walked in."
"Wow... You're really good at spotting things."
"I've started trying to read Conan Doyle's Sherlock Holmes. It's one of the key things you need to do to be a good detective." Ran stared at him in awe.
"Well, before we get started, we should probably give Agasa-san back his invention..."
"Okay, fine... Also, we can't tell our parents. They'll say no."
"If things start looking bad can we tell our parents?"
"Things won't get bad. We'll be careful. I'll even use the professor's computer, just to be safe." Ran sighed.
"Okay. We'll be careful. What are you going to say to your parents?"
"That we want to play at Hakase's house. It's boring in this room. They'll say yes." Shinichi opened his door slightly and called down to his parents, "Mom! Dad! Ran and I want to go play at Hakase's house. It's boring up here!"
"Okay, Honey! Be home before lunch, okay?" Replied his mom.
"See?" Shinichi grinned at Ran, "Now, it's time for some research."
AN: I kinda based Shinichi and Ran's characters off of Simba and Nala in this chapter. Because, well, their both kids and both a little mischevious. Also, I don't really remember much about Shinichi and Ran's actions as children. Most Likely similar to how they are now, but meh. I apologize for the short chapter. The next one will be longer. Thank you for coming this far with me :)
