" Shin-Chan you came! " said Kaito excited as he saw Shinichi come towards him.
" Yeah I made it " said Shinichi.
They were now in Beika Park having a picnic set up by Chikage. It was made in Beika so Shinichi did not have far to travel and she would feel comfortable and Hakuba would not get in the way of things because that was what Kaito was counting on happening.
He had to find out about Daredevil, Red to make sure that she was fine and everything was alright and he just had to make things right.
" Sorry but I can't stay long " said Shinichi.
He quickly pulled her down to sit beside him and she looked uncomfortable as if she did not want to be there as scooted away on the far end of the blanket.
" Then stay for as long you can, sometime is better than none at all " said Kaito.
He just nodded dully.
" I just want to be friends and this is my way of showing it " said Kaito.
" It is a beautiful and sunny day " said Kaito.
She stuffed a sandwich in mouth and took some orange juice.
" I know that you are still mad at me but the least you can do is talk to me look me in the eye and talk to me. Say something to me don't ignore me like I don't exist acknowledge my existence "said Kaito.
" So, tell me what is the real reason I am here " said Shinichi sarcastically.
She sighed as she was bored.
She could see that her identity was still safe and she had nothing to worry about. She was tired and jut sitting down was an actual pain and she just wanted to get the day over with and go to sleep for like a week because she still had not been to bed and would soon after he had dealt with this situation.
" Ok we are friend well established. So, I can go now because it seems there is nothing else that you need to know because I know there is nothing that I need to know. So, if you need to tell me something then just then tell me because I am tired and I getting bored sitting here and I would honestly be doing something else " said Shinichi.
" Why are being so cold to me ? " said Kaito.
'Other than the fact that you nearly let your assistant unmask me and you left me with him thinking that you could trust him with him with my secret and he would do nothing. I was wrong about you. I am perfectly fine that I was nearly unmasked and was drugged by him and rendered unconscious only to wake up in the back of a car going out of town. For all I know that you were taking me to some unknown location or I have no idea. I have no freaking idea and I cannot trust you, any of you and I was just starting to and it turns out I was right about him. So, I just want you to leave me alone and stay the hell away from me' she said inside her head.
She did not say a single word to him and just glared at him angrily as she dug her fingers into the ground unleashing all of her anger.
" Shin-Chan nice to see you again how are your parents doing ? " said Chikage happily as she sat down beside them.
" They are just doing fine, thank you " said Shinichi.
'I know why you two are really here and butt out' she said inside her head.
" So, do you think they would like to join us ? " said Chikage.
" They can't they are not in the country and I have no idea where they are they left on Tuesday night and I am now leaving as I have some important business to attend " said Shinichi.
" They already left! Like I am now " said Chikage shocked.
She was just getting fed up of them dancing around what they really wanted to know and what they really wanted to ask and she just got fed up with it. This was the final straw and she just got up and began to walk away.
" Shin-Chan wait I know that you must be upset " said Chikage.
She just started to laugh hysterically.
" Enough with the Shin-Chan already only my family gets to call me that and you are not family neither of you two are and I sick and tired of being called that. It was my mother's name for me and my Dad now... they are gone and there is no point in anyone calling me that. I am not that little girl anymore and I never will be " said Shinichi.
She clenched her hand on her stick.
The pain was getting to much again and she needed to get out there before they started to get suspicious.
" Shinichi just what ? exactly how much do you know ? " said Chikage.
" I know more than it was just an 'accident' " said Shinichi.
' Not him why does he have to be here of all people ?' thought Shinichi.
She sighed ready for it coming again and she was starting almost lose it by now but she was able to keep her anger at bay.
Chikage walked away from shock and Kaito then came in her place.
" Shin-Chan would you like a lift to where you are going because Jii is here and willing to give us a lift and we can talk on the way about whatever is annoying you so much " said Kaito annoyed.
" No thanks for all I know I might end being drugged and who knows what will happen. I have a Hospital appointment and I would prefer to do that with someone that I trust " said Shinichi.
And she shocked the three of them with her anger and hate in her voice.
" Shinichi " called Agasa waving in his car to come over.
" She knows what happened! " said Jii.
" How is that possible we watched the house for the entire night and no one entered or left ? She knows about her parent's death "said Chikage.
Kaito was now running trying to catch up with Shinichi was just marching away angrily.
" Shin-Chan wait please! I need to know if she is alright and if she " said Kaito pleading and almost crying.
She chuckled darkly and rolled her eyes.
'SHE is standing right in front of you and no she is not fine' she said inside her head.
" Red " she said sarcastically.
" She is fine and she wants you to stay the hell away from her and I want the exact same thing or I promise you this Kuroba and to all of you that you will regret it " said Shinichi darkly.
But Kaito just smiled.
" Can I see her please... I want to see her and make sure that she is fine... please I am begging you " said Kaito.
She raised her eyebrow.
"You have not listened to word I have just said and no more just no more I tried to play nice and be the good girl but no more. I can prove that you are Kaitou Kid and I have the proof on all of you and if you stand in my way again or get in my way even just once you will be sharing a jail cell with your assistant for the rest of his life. But I will give you one piece of advice from her he needs to go to the Hospital or he will be dead within a year " said Shinichi.
He was shocked and he let her go.
" But I love her " said Kaito sadly.
Shinichi momentarily turned her head around as she heard him crying and she started to regret every single word that she had said and then bowed her head in shame as the car drove away. But either way it would be better for him.
" Kaito ? " said Chikage worried.
" Is she ok ? " said Jii worried.
He just sniffed nodding.
" Just from what Shinichi just...she never wants to see me or any of us again and same goes for Red... I think that she and Shinichi are a couple... And I think they are in love and I have just been a fool a complete fool for just believing that I could be with any of them " said Kaito.
" How can you so sure about that ? " said Chikage.
" I just am " said Kaito.
She hugged her son as he needed consoled right now.
" Just give Shinichi some time she is just angry with the world right now because it is a hard time for her and she did forgive you before so the same could be said for Red " said Chikage.
" But why ? " said Kaito.
" Why is she so angry with world right now ? I get that she is angry with her parents but ... just what else is there ? " said Kaito.
" I will explain at home but not here, here is not the best place to be talking about this " said Chikage.
" But..." said Jii nervously.
" Shinichi did say one thing " said Kaito looking up at Jii.
He just gulped.
" You should go to Hospital or you will be dead within a year " said Kaito.
" What is that supposed to mean ? " said Chikage.
" I don't know but she said it was a message from Daredevil and I think she is just trying to warn you about something " said Kaito.
Jii just nodded in agreement unsure of what was happening.
" Mr Konosuke I have some bad news and some very good news " said the doctor.
"...? " said Jii.
" I am afraid that we found some cancer " said the doctor.
He was now speechless.
" But the good news is that we have found it early and you are truly lucky because we can act on it right away and save your life. I must say you are truly lucky and who told you to go the Hospital must be psychic or something because if this was not found right away then you would be likely dead within a year and we would never have known until then " said the Doctor.
And he was left speechless and truly regretting all of actions because he was just saved by someone that he tried to unmask less than a day ago. And he could now see that he was the bad guy and she was not.
And he had just blown their best chance at justice.
" Shin-Chan ? " said Kaito shocked.
" Yes, her parents they died in an accidental house fire and she was the only one to survive and it has been ten years since it happened and I think she is starting to remember what happened that night " said Chikage.
" And her parents used to call her Shin-Chan and she used to love it and smile play laugh and she was just the happiest girl. And I think she is just starting to deal with it all now and she has not dealt with it before " said Chikage.
"That would explain a lot I suppose " said Kaito.
" She needs to grieve and she is getting memories of seeing them and it just must so painful for something like that.
" Shinichi ? " said Kaito.
" I thought she was always blind and you are telling me she has not always been " said Kaito shocked.
" There was an accident and she was blinded because of it. She has not had the best life and with the Kudo`s turning up again and leaving when they said that they would stay for a while. I think she is just feeling abandoned and alone and you forget she is just still fifteen and hormones they are a horrible thing " said Chikage.
" Then I need to speak to her and make sure that she is alright she can't keep this all to herself. She needs someone to talk to! " said Kaito.
" Just give her time she needs to break before she can be fixed and I think she is getting the help that she needs " said Chikage.
But as she sat up that night she began to wonder if Shinichi was really Daredevil.
But she would not tell anyone this as it was her secret and her secret to share.
She sat there just blinking every few seconds, it was much more worse than she could have thought. Her brain could barely hold it together and her brain just might actually break or melt or both.
" I hear that you know about a 'special someone' and I would like you to hook me up with that person because I have been saved by the person of my dreams and I am in love with him. He is my dark knight and I love him " said Sonoko.
" ARE YOU FREAKING CRAZY ?...You can't possibly be in love with m...? Sonoko are you mad or something. Just how hard did you hit your head because ... come on I am begging you to reconsider this because...I can't even say it " said a hysterical Shinichi shaking her head and crying tears of laughter and confusion.
" Detective Geek how dare you talk like that " said Sonoko.
" Ah...this is just too good...this is stuff that you cannot make up...and my answer is No! .it is not happening " said Shinichi wiping away a tear laughing.
" See I told you that she would say no " said a disapproving Ran.
'Yes, my answer is no. Sorry Sonoko I just don't see you that way and there is also the fact that I am a girl and he is he and she is me' said Shinichi inside her head.
Shinichi was still laughing at Sonoko.
" This is not funny " said Sonoko.
" You do know that the two of you are not meant to be talking about this and you could go to jail for just asking me this " said Shinichi.
" I guess... I will just to find someone else... well there is a Kaitou Kid Heist coming up and it is the first one since that horrible day " said Sonoko.
She received two deadpanned faces.
Then they heard someone screaming.
" S-stop that man he is taking my daughter please " screamed a woman.
There was currently a man taking a baby from its mother and taking it into the van without everyone standing still form shock not knowing what to do and from shock.
He was going high speed in the van and he was heading for the three of them and it was going to hit them if they did not get out of the way and fast.
Sonoko and Ran quickly ran to the opposite sides of the pavement but Shinichi stood still ready to act.
" Shinichi get out of the way " cried Ran.
To everyone it looked she had been hit with the van and was stuck on the side going for a ride but in reality, she had jumped on and was holding on.
" Get off your stupid little girl " said the man.
'Like hell' she said inside her head.
She kicked the windscreen so that he could not see and he crashed into the wall and was now currently unconscious.
And then Shinichi quickly ran into the back to make sure the little girl was alright.
" Are you alright ? " said Shinichi as she opened the door.
The little girl just nodded.
And she took her crying her away.
" Shinichi are you alright ? " said Ran checking her out.
" Here you go straight back to your mother " said Shinichi handing back the child.
And then there was a round of applause.
And then she heard the police coming along with an ambulance.
" I better be on my way got things to do ...bye " said Shinichi.
" Just hold it right their Missy " said Ran holding Shinichi`s arm.
" You are not going anywhere until I know that you have been checked because the last time that you were supposed to and did not you nearly died and I am not letting that happen " said Ran.
" Is that a new cake shop ? " said Shinichi.
" WHERE ? " said Sonoko and Ran looking back.
And when they looked back and she was gone.
" Where did she go ? " said Ran.
" Never mind that I want to know how the hell she does that all the time " said Sonoko.
Friday Morning.
" Shinichi are you coming or not ? " said Sonoko.
" Sorry but taking it easy today just rest and I am feeling a bit sore " said Shinichi.
" Well ... ok I will just have to take Ran instead and maybe I can make Kaitou Kid jealous or something " said Sonoko.
" Sonoko! " scowled Shinichi.
" Bye and remember that you have a date tomorrow and get plenty of bed rest " said Sonoko.
And Shinichi hung the phone up before she was told something else.
She just put an ice pack on her shoulder because she hit it harder than she thought she had originally and was still sore from the last injuries.
And then she fell asleep.
He had heard about the crash and he was worried about her.
" Shin-Chan " he said waking her up.
She sat up quickly and just started rubbing at her face.
" Go away I am tired...and I am the couch...I am going to bed you can let yourself out " said Shinichi yawning and ignoring Kaito as she walked away.
" Shinichi are you alright I heard about the car crash and..." said Kaito as he stood beside going up the stairs.
" Fine...Look I am tired can we just talk later ...I NEED to get some sleep " said Shinichi.
" So, am ...? " said Kaito.
She threw a stick at him hitting him on the head.
" I said I need to sleep ...go away " said Shinichi.
" Ok I will come back later " he said hopeful.
She just nodded as she closed her eyes almost falling asleep standing.
And he was hopeful that they were going to be friends again and she was starting he was not sure what was happening but he was happy about it.
And before she knew it Ran was dragged to the Heist while Shinichi was attending a case.
But Shinichi was able to make it to the Heist and she was there by Helicopter and she smiled as she started to play the game and the chase.
And this was the last Heist that Kudo Shinichi would ever attend.
