Mouri Detective Agency.
"I say, darling, have you seen Ran's kindergarten name tag?" Mouri Eri asked Mouri Kogoro, who was putting on his shoes by the door.
"Oh, wasn't that placed on the kitchen table?" Mouri Kogoro looked at Eri with a puzzled expression.
"That's the name tag for the Tulip Class, from last year!" Mouri Eri explained. At this moment, Mouri Ran spoke up, "Ran, starting today, you're in the Sakura Class!"
"I was planning to put it on her when I took her to kindergarten today. I remember putting it in the shoe cabinet. Didn't you see it?" Mouri Eri was a little confused.
"Now that you mention it, I think I might have dropped something when I was getting my shoes," Mouri Kogoro replied uncertainly.
With a "poof," Mouri Kogoro lifted his foot and discovered the Sakura name tag directly beneath his foot, completely shattered. "Darling!" "Well, I have to go to headquarters today, so I'll just..." Saying this, Kogoro grabbed his briefcase, opened the door, and slipped away.
"Ah, wait... Honestly," Mouri Eri looked at the shattered pieces in her hand, then at Ran, and said helplessly, "I'll just have to ask the kindergarten teacher to prepare a new one."
"Then, what do we do until then?" Ran asked anxiously.
"It's okay! Mama will make another name tag for you," Mouri Eri promised Ran. "Can you help Mama get some cardboard and colored pens?"
"Okay!" Ran replied happily, smiling.
...
Ring, ring, ring.
"Excuse me, could you please wait a moment?" Kudo Yusaku said, apologizing to his book fans who came to the autograph session to buy his novels. At the same time, he took out his phone from his jacket pocket. "Ah, Yukiko? Shinichi's kindergarten name tag?"
Kudo Shinichi's home.
"That's right! It's a sakura-shaped plastic tag. Shin-chan is going to a new kindergarten today. Last night, after I finished writing his name on it, I put it on the study desk. Did you see it?" Kudo Yukiko asked.
"The fountain pen and glasses case on the table, I hastily stuffed them into my pocket when I came here," Kudo Yusaku said, rummaging through his pocket. "Ah, is this it?"
Yusaku pulled out a plastic sakura name tag from his pocket.
"As expected, Yusaku, you have it!" Kudo Yukiko said, as if she knew all along.
"Who told you to put it on the study desk..." Kudo Yusaku said with a wry smile.
"Because the pen happened to be on the study desk too!" Kudo Yukiko argued. "Then I'll just drop by your place on the way to taking Shin-chan to kindergarten. Wait for me!"
"Remember to wear a hat and glasses when you come. It'll be troublesome if you're exposed." Kudo Yusaku reminded her.
"Mhm, okay," Kudo Yukiko replied, indicating she understood. "Then let's go, Shin-chan."
After speaking, Kudo Yukiko realized that Shinichi was gone. "Oh, Shin-chan, where are you?" Kudo Yukiko looked around, and finally found Kudo Shinichi under the desk.
"Found you! Honestly! What are you doing? I told you we're going to kindergarten today, didn't I? And if you read in such a dim place, you'll turn into a glasses-wearing geek like Yusaku!" Kudo Yukiko scolded Kudo Shinichi.
"Glasses... I would never wear glasses!! Absolutely not!" Kudo Shinichi said very firmly.
...
"Wow! Fujimine Yukiko!!"
"Is she making a comeback to the stage?"
"How do you two address each other?"
"Let's take a picture together!"
The people at the autograph session went wild. After all, Fujimine Yukiko used to be a very famous star.
"That's strange. I'm clearly wearing a hat and glasses." Kudo Yukiko was a little confused.
"It's obviously a celebrity's hat and glasses," Kudo Yusaku handed the sakura name tag to Yukiko. "Alright, this is the sakura name tag! Stop trying to steal the spotlight from my autograph session..."
"Shin-chan, put it on. It's time for us to withdraw." Kudo Yukiko said to Kudo Shinichi.
Kudo Shinichi reluctantly put on the name tag. "Mhm, got it."
...
Kindergarten.
"Huh, Ran, what's with your name tag?" Suzuki Sonoko asked curiously, seeing the paper name tag pinned to Ran's clothes.
"My mom made it for me! Because the original one broke," Ran said.
"That's awesome! It looks so real!!"
"There's also a safety pin on the back, so you can put it on and take it off!" Ran happily introduced it to Sonoko.
At this moment, the name tag was suddenly snatched by a boy. "What's this? It's just paper! So ugly." He looked at the name tag, mocking Ran. "People who wear stuff like this aren't our friends."
"Exactly, exactly."
"We're not playing with you." The other boys started chanting.
"Give it back right now, you're so annoying!" Suzuki Sonoko got angry.
"That's right, give it back quickly, or I'll get angry." Minamoto Yū saw Ran in trouble and immediately came to help. Just kidding, I came to this kindergarten to be friends with Conan and the others.
Looking at Minamoto Yū's deep purple eyes, the boy was a little scared. After handing the name tag to Minamoto Yū, he immediately ran to the other side.
"Too bad, he broke the name tag." Minamoto Yū was a little apologetic.
"It's okay, I've seen how Mama makes them." Ran said, smiling as if completely unbothered, "Thank you, Yū-kun."
"You're so cool, Yū-kun," Suzuki Sonoko's eyes sparkled.
"No problem." Minamoto Yū thought as he scratched his head. It seems I'll have to keep my distance from Sonoko in the future, or I'll get infected by her infatuation.
...
Evening, Minamoto family home.
"Don't worry, Kumi. I will definitely make sure you and our son live a happy and peaceful life, and I won't let the organization's shadow loom over you again!" Minamoto Naoki thought to himself, sitting at the dining table and watching his wife and child eating and laughing.
