[hm hm, this one is in the library looking for more origami books... when she sees a kid who looks kind of close to her age! well that's pretty exciting... and he looks like he's reading a hard book. YOU KNOW WHAT, SHE'LL SAY HI TO NEW BOY-KUN :D]

Hello.

[modernholmes]

[Hmm, a girl who looked to be about the age of the detective Boys. Logically, it made sense that he was not the only child here. But that didn't make him happy that a real child was involved.]

Hello yourself.

[junescutie]

... What are you reading?

[modernholmes]

Mysteries!

[junescutie]

It looks like a really hard book.

[modernholmes]

Maybe, but I really like them. So I read them a lot.

[junescutie]

[wow *^* so impressed] Are you really smart?

[modernholmes]

I'm a detective.

[He obviously thinks that explains everything.]

[junescutie]

[but dude, you're like... twelve]

R-Really? You solve crimes?

[modernholmes]

I help Uncle with his cases. And I'm in a detective club at school.

[Technically he has the appearance of a seven-year-old.]

[junescutie]

[ooh, good to know]

My Dad is a detective too.

[modernholmes]

[A very tiny seven-year-old. He.s one of the shortest kids in his class. The art makes it hard to guess that sometimes.]

Is he a police detective?

[junescutie]

Uh huh, he solves crimes. [all the pride is in her voice :')]

[modernholmes]

[Conan smiles as he remembers some of his acquaintances in the police.]

It's a very important job.

[junescutie]

Yeah, they keep everyone safe.
