After that night, he read his Tantei-kun letter and found out that Conan Edogawa was just a fake identity. Akako paid Kaito a little visit.

"What are you doing here, Akako?" Kaito said in annoyance. He was busy researching about his detective, and this witch appeared.

"My, is that how you treat a lady and the person who will give you a little advice about your little detective?" she said smugly while sitting on a gray cloud. Kaito kept his poker face but wanted to know what Akako was going to say about his Tantei-kun. Who knows, it might be helpful.

"Your little detective has disappeared from the world as fast as he appeared. He's safe for now, but now that he's back as his real self, there are so many men covered in black wanting his head. I know you already know that, so make sure to find him soon. Be grateful I'm saying this to you for free. Also, make sure to remember this because it is important for you to find your Tantei-kun. I'll only say it once, so listen carefully.

The day the little detective appeared, his real self disappeared and was never seen again, unless someone disguised as him for cover until he found a cure for the reason he created a new identity. Right now, he found a cure, and the little detective will disappear while his real self will come back again and forever.

Kuroba-kun, this is my last advice to you. 'Even how impossible it can be, never forget that impossible things can be possible in this world. Everything is possible as long as there's evil that wants to kill good.'" With those words, the witch disappeared.

He didn't know what the witch meant, but he remembered it just in case, then continued his research on when Conan first appeared and learned more and more about him.

"Ran Mouri is Conan Edogawa's guardian and takes care of him since he appeared. I heard that he was a relative of Hiroshi Agasa or Professor Agasa. If Conan didn't exist and was only a disguise, he wouldn't have a relative. That means the professor knew something, but I wouldn't want to ask him. He might find it suspicious. And if he knew Conan's real identity, then maybe Tantei-kun is in Beika," Kaito stated. Today, he's at his new apartment in Beika. It took a week to finally convince Aoko to let him move, and he also transferred to Teitan High.

Determined to find the real Conan Edogawa and bring him back into his life, Kaito embarks on a journey to Beika City, the place where the great detective had once resided. With a heavy heart and a mind filled with memories, Kaito immerses himself in the city, searching for any clues that could lead him to the truth. Walking through the streets of Beika, his voice filled with determination.

"tantei kun, I won't rest until I find you. I need to understand everything and make things right," he stated with determination.

Today is the day where the mission of finding his Tantei-kun starts. He starts by walking around Beika, and while he is walking, a soccer ball flies in his way, which he luckily catches.He cant help but reminded him on how his tantei kun always kick his soccer ball toward him during his heist.

He looks over toward where the ball came from and encounters familiar faces from Conan's past. He sees Ran, Sonoko, and even the Detective Boys, and the kids run toward him with the two girls behind them.

"Nii-san, are you okay? We're so sorry," the boy with freckles, named Mitsuhiko, stated while Kaito only smiles.

"It's fine."

"Geez, Genta, be more careful. That soccer ball is a gift from Conan-kun, so we can't broke it," the girl with the pink hairband, Ayumi, stated, walking towards them with another girl with short brown hair.

"Conan? Do you mean the 'Kid Killer' Edogawa Conan?" Kaito asks, keeping his poker face, acting like he doesn't know them. The children nod in response.

"Yes, that's him. Conan-kun is really famous. We're the Detective Boys, and Conan-kun is our leader. Conan-kun is smart, always at the top in our school, and also brave and strong," the girl stated with a sad smile, and Kaito doesn't like it. 'Kids should always smile,' that's what he believes, so he makes six blue roses.

"Well, my name is Kuroba Kaito, magician extraordinaire. Nice to meet you all," he introduced himself as the kids awe at his magic, especially the girls.

"My name is Mitsuhiko," the boy with freckles said.

"I'm Genta," the other boy kid said.

"I'm Ayumi, and this is," the girl with the pink hairband stated.

"Haibara Ai," the girl with short brown hair said.

"My name is Ran Mouri, and this is"

"Sonoko Suzuki."

"Nice to meet you all. Well, you should go back now. That guy is calling you, I think," Kaito stated as he pointed at an old man waving at them.

"Professor!" the kids, except for the girl named Haibara, shouted.

"That must be Professor Agasa," Kaito thought as he looked at the professor and back to the kids.

"Come on, the professor is calling us. We should go," Ran stated.

"Hai!! Bye, Kaito-niisan. Thank you for the flowers," the kids stated and ran, and the two girls followed them, except Haibara.

"Bye, take care. Don't run too fast, or you might fall," Kaito said.

"I hope Tantei-kun is really in Beika," he thought. Then he noticed that Haibara was looking at him, I mean glaring at him.

"Is something wrong?" he asked, sweating, clearly confused about why she was staring at him. He's a bit scared because firstly, she reminds him of that witch Akako, and secondly, as far as he knows, she is as smart and sharp as his Tantei-kun.

"He's in Beika. Good luck," she said as he walked towards the other kids and the professor, while Kaito stood there frozen, wide-eyed.

"Wait, does she mean... does she know that I'm looking for Tantei-kun?! Wait, that means she knows I'm KID!!! I know she's smart and sharp like Tantei-kun, but not that much!" he thought, clearly panicking.

"Well, she did say good luck. That means she's supporting me. She won't report me to the police or something, right? And most importantly, she confirmed that Tantei-kun is in Beika," he thought as he continued walking around Beika, smiling.

"See you soon, Tantei-kun."
