Conan's other me

Chapter 2 Another Me
It's over, I seem to be a child too.Kudo Shin, who hadn't been able to integrate into the setting earlier, was stunned for a moment, and couldn't react in time to Sora's approach.

then…

Kong Tan shot... and pulled Kudo Shinichi to the side of the road.

"Bastard! You don't want to walk aside, you want to die! Be careful, brat!"

A truck passed by quickly, leaving only the driver's curses and splashed water.Kudo Shinichi, who was drenched all over, sneezed.

"Should I go back first? I still want to change clothes." The Kongmu delivery truck that built the seventh-level pagoda left, a little surprised.

Because of Kudo Shinichi, they took a detour before, but they didn't expect to encounter this famous scene.

It wasn't raining heavily, but it kept falling, and he was now wrapped in nothing but a coat.Although I am only a child's body, I can cover what needs to be covered, and it will not affect the appearance of the city...but it is really breathless.

After such an incident, Kudo Shinichi seemed to realize that things might not be as he thought.This guy didn't seem to solve his own thoughts, and even saved his life.

He was distracted just now, if he hadn't been pulled away... the uncle driver wouldn't be in the mood to swear.

After walking for a while, the silence lasted for a while. Kudo Shinichi, who was in the body of a child, soon felt a little tired, and finally couldn't hold back, and asked again: "Who the hell are you?"

Who am I?It's a good question, Sora thought about it for a while.

In fact, since time travel, he has been thinking about what kind of identity he should use to live in this familiar yet unfamiliar world with the face of Kudo Shinichi.

Orphans with amnesia, orphans without amnesia, etc., he had thought about many kinds of identity settings before, but just now Kudo Shinichi's wonderful reasoning gave him a new idea.

"I'm Kudou Shin'ichii."

Oh, come again?

"You are also Kudo Shinichi."

Nonsense, let me say it.

"We are all Kudo Shinichi." Sora stopped, turned around, and looked at the stunned Kudo Shinichi playfully, "In the evening, Kudo Shinichi left Mori Ran behind to follow two suspicious people in black clothes, but unexpectedly, he was beaten with a stick by one of them, and then he was given a strange drug, and when he woke up again—"

"He not only became a child, but also two people. You," Sora pointed to Shinichi Kudo, "and me."

The air seemed to be stagnant, and Sora could clearly hear Kudo Shinichi's breathing intensified a lot.Then--

"Who would believe such a thing!"

"Indeed...but as you can see, we've all become children."

"It's too outrageous to become two people!"

"Isn't it outrageous to become a child? This is against the laws of physics."

"...That's much more reliable than becoming two people."

"Then try it."

"what?"

"If... a person has Kudo Shinichi's appearance and Kudo Shinichi's memory, then if he is not Kudo Shinichi, who else can he be?"

……

After a few minutes.

"What was the last word I said to Dr. Ari last time?"

"Doctor, I forgot to tell you, you didn't zip up."

...you know all this?Kudo Shinichi fell into deep doubts.He has been asking a lot of things that few people should know, but the guy opposite can handle them all with ease.

He even remembered better than himself.

"When you eliminate the impossible, whatever is left, no matter how improbable it may seem, must be the truth."

"That's not necessarily true," Kudo Shinichi narrowed his eyes, "Maybe you have been monitoring me since I was a child, so you know almost everything about me."

"Why don't you think more about it? For example, your life is just a play on the screen, and everyone around you is just an actor. And you who don't know anything about it think that your life is just someone else's entertainment. How about this?"

"...Hey." Kudo Shinichi squinted, feeling a little dizzy.Compared to this, it doesn't seem so unacceptable to take strange drugs and split into two people.

A wild dog came out from nowhere, Kudo Shinichi was slightly startled, but the dog barked twice after seeing the two of them, then turned around and disappeared.

Sora watched the dog disappear just like he watched the truck leave before, then sighed, and decided to speed up the progress.

"Speaking of which, you've always been asking me, and it's time for me to ask you."

Kudo Shin was taken aback for a moment.

"What were we thinking about before going to bed last night?"

…what was I thinking about before going to bed last night?Oh, by the way, because I made an appointment to go to the amusement park with Xiaolan today, so last night... Kudo Shinichi blushed a little, but the next moment he thought of something, he had a bad premonition in his heart, hey... no way...

"Oh, yes," Sora asked himself and answered, "We were thinking about Xiaolan. What is she doing?"

"She was wearing pure white..." Sora continued, but Kudo Shinichi almost jumped up as if he had been hit on the foot, and then rushed up to try to stop Sora's mouth, trying to stop him from continuing.

But it didn't work.

Sora just casually took a step forward to the right before dodging.

"...Wedding dress. Under the dim yellow light, Xiaolan stared angrily at the person in front of her, with a face full of reluctance—" Sora said slowly, and Kudo Shinichi's body gradually stiffened, "—reluctantly reading Sherlock Holmes to that guy named Kudo Shinichi."

"Tsk, I'm really bad."

Kudo Shinichi, who almost bumped into the street lamp, turned around, and even under the dim light, he could see that his face was blushing like a member of a black organization.

Then the two sides fell into a few minutes of silence.

Just when Sora began to switch from counting sheep to rats, Kudo Shinichi finally broke the silence again.

"So...we're all...uh...Shinichi Kudo splinters?"

"Yes."

"But your personality is obviously different from mine." Kudo Shinichi was dying, pointing out doubts.

"Because I am Kudo Shinichi's subconscious, and you are Kudo Shinichi's superconscious." Sora yawned and patched his own settings.

Kudo Shin is a bit skeptical about this statement, but too many things have happened tonight, and all of them have actually happened such unscientific things as becoming a child, so it doesn't seem so unacceptable to split into two people——

What a ghost!
This is too unscientific!
Calm down, Kudo Shinichi, you must be calm.

Kudo Shinichi cheered himself up in his heart, trying to sort out the status quo with his confused mind.

First of all, this guy looks exactly like himself, and even has the same injury location, and secondly, this guy not only knows things that only he should know, he even knows what he was thinking——

"Okay, subconscious," Kudo Shinichi sighed, "what do we do now?"

"Of course, go home and change clothes first." Kong replied, "show consciousness."

Kudo Shinichi didn't fully believe in such an unscientific thing, but he couldn't think of other explanations for the time being, so he had to temporarily accept this setting.The two of them fell silent again, and started walking towards Kudou's house.

Kudo Shinichi deliberately lagged behind by half a step, allowing Sora to walk ahead.

Sora knew that he wanted to see if he knew where home was.

Kudo Shinichi also knew that Sora knew he was testing.

This kind of inadvertent little temptation will undoubtedly appear many times in the future, but at this moment, both of them are walking on the street as Kudo Shinichi.

It was late and it was raining lightly. There were only occasional trucks passing by on the road, and there were no pedestrians. This also saved the two of them a lot of trouble.After all, they are still wearing high school clothes, and they are just two children.When Kudo Shinichi started to breathe heavily, they finally arrived.

Kudo House.

Sora glanced at the neighbor.The home of Dr. Ali next door seemed to have had a small explosion not long ago, and a piece of the wall fell down. The faint light told him that this doctor who is good at invention and explosion is still working hard at this moment.

Kudo Shinichi jumped up, trying to reach the latch of the iron door.

"Hey, don't look, come and help."

"You squat down, I'll come."

Kudo Shinichi rolled his eyes, but he still squatted down honestly and let his subconscious step on his shoulder to reach the latch.Sora pulled the latch and jumped off.

Of course, Kudo Shinichi can open the door without stepping on it.

Before Kudo Shinichi stood up, Sora walked in first, then took out the key from the place in his memory, opened the door, and walked straight to Kudo Shinichi's bedroom in his memory.

This is also part of deepening Kudo Shinichi's trust.

Kudo Shinichi fell behind, seeing that the guy in front was as familiar with this house as he was, he couldn't help but sighed again.He, Shinichi Kudo, Sherlock Holmes' heir, might really be cracking.
