A/N: Heyyy everyone! Before you read this fanfiction, I just want to disclose that this plot was inspired by a meme I saw on Reddit. That meme was so genius that it will be a waste not to write a fanfiction about it haha. This is purely a ShinShi fanfiction.

I hope you enjoy reading~


Chapter 1: Crime

"Shinichi! Where are you?" Professor Agasa was trembling and heavily sweating while on the phone with Shinichi. "You won't believe what just happened."

"What is it?" Shinichi yawned, as he walked with Shiho, Ayumi, Genta and Mitsuhiko, "We're on our way home."

Shiho noticed it was the voice of the professor so she leaned slightly in to listen to their conversation while Genta and Mitsuhiko were busy fawning over Ayumi's deliciously homemade cookies.

"I'm sorry Shinichi...", Professor Agasa was catching his breath, "Kogoro Mouri was seen lying dead inside his agency office."

"What?!" Shinichi's voice raised, causing the detective boys to look at him. Shiho was trembling as she immediately thought of the black organization. It could be them. It could be that they already knew everything about Shinichi and her.

"But the real scary thing is that..." Professor Agasa was trying to keep his voice steady and downlow, "...tests have shown that the death was caused by a sleeping drug overdose built up over a long period of time."

Shinichi froze. He paused grieving over Ran's loss as he came with a sudden realization.

Shinichi had been using the tranquilizer gun all the time when he came up with a deduction and he had to use Kogoro Mouri's body to speak up for him. Using the voice changer bowtie, a gadget that professor Agasa made for him, he was able to mimic Kogoro's voice as if he was the one speaking. And now that he had the chance to think about it, he had done it countless times that an overdose was not far from happening.

"Then professor…" beads of sweat were visibly seen on Shinichi's forehead, "..what should I do?"

"Forgive me Shinichi." Professor Agasa's voice was shaking, "I told them the truth, I could not lie to them."

"What?! Then Ran-"

"Yes. Ran knows all about it now. The last time I saw her, she was just crying really hard. I could not talk to her." The professor explained.

Oh shit. This can't be happening. Shinichi could not breathe. He didn't know how he would face Ran after this. He lied to her all this time and now he was a primary suspect to her father's death. It seemed as if everything was hindering for them to be together. He wanted to cry, to grieve, to get angry at himself. He wanted to give up.

Shinichi's mind was turning blank when Shiho snapped him out of it.

"Hey, are you okay?" Shiho tried to reassure Shinichi who was almost on the brink of fainting.

"Hey, you guys go home. Edogawa-kun and I will just drop by that convenience store." Shiho commanded the detective boys.

"O-okay." Ayumi responded noticing the seriousness on Shiho's face. Shiho and Shinichi went in the opposite direction so they could plan on their next steps.

"Hello? Professor?", Shiho grabbed the phone from Shinichi who was spacing out.

"Ai-kun?" The professor asked, still on the phone.

"Yes, it's me. Kudo-kun is kind of blanking right now but we have to act fast."

"Sorry, Ai-kun. In a few minutes, the police will be here to get me.", the professor lowered his voice, "I was an accomplice to the crime."

"I see", Shiho took a few seconds to think, "Okay then, do they know where we are? Are they after us now?"

"Uhhh.. I only told them that you might be at school right now…", the professor answered, his voice was still shaking, "I'm not sure but yes, they might go there right now."

"Okay. Do you know anywhere we can go to hide?" Shiho asked, trying to be strong amidst the crisis.

"What? You'll hide? Isn't it better to just surrender?" The professor questioned Shiho. He noticed that several police cars were approaching near his house. "The police are here!"

"We will hide. We can't let them find us, professor. D-delete all call history after I end the call, okay?!" Shiho was stuttering out of fear that she tried to contain.

"Let me just...surrender…" Shinichi was contemplating everything that had happened, "It'll be easier that way."

He was about to give up on life, his eyes were staring off nothing, his face expressionless.

"Hey Kudo-kun, pull yourself together!" Shiho exclaimed, trying to get hold of Shinichi. "Let's just run away...far from here." Maybe Shiho had always wanted to run away. Maybe Shiho had always wanted to start her life over. But she could not stay as Ai Haibara forever. For once, she wanted to live her life with no regrets.

"What can we do? We're trapped inside as kids. We can't go anywhere."

"I have some antidotes here. I've been bringing them just in case." Shiho took out some antidotes for APTX 4869, "But our next problem is..."

"Money." Shinichi fumbled in his bag to see how much cash he brought with him. "I have a little cash here."

Shiho did the same and felt relieved as she brought some cash as well. They immediately made their move. They have to act fast before they get restricted to leave the city.


A/N: Thank you so much for reading! I would love to hear your thoughts on this first chapter. Feel free to leave your review below. As always, faves and follows are greatly appreciated~

Again, this story has been inspired by the genius meme I saw on Reddit. Haha. I know I'm being a bit too hard on Ran with this fanfic, I mean killing his father and all but I just thought that this is so possible to happen. I mean how many times did Conan shoot him with tranquilizer? That's right, countless times :D

See you in Chapter 2!
