When Shinichi woke up, all he saw was white.  

‘Ugh...’ His body hurt everywhere. Where was he? What happened?
And why is there something heavy on his chest?

Shinichi pushed off the person laying on top of him.

“KID? KID!” That's right, KID just saved him from Gin. They crash landed right after escaping the rooftop.

“KID, wake up!” Shinichi tried shaking him awake. KID had blood oozing out from his head and a bullet wound on his right shoulder.

“KID!” Shinichi shoved him a bit harder.

“Ugh... Meitantei...?” KID's head was spinning like hell.

“Can you move?”

“I...I think I may need some help with that...” KID used his left hand to massage his temple to reduce the throbbing. He was seeing double Shinichis.

Shinichi helped prop KID up so that he was now leaning against a tree.

“Are you okay, Meitantei? You're losing blood. A lot of it.” KID winced when he spotted the wound in Shinichi’s leg.

“I am not okay.” Shinichi gave him a glare that made him shiver. “We are going to talk about this when we get back home, KID.” Shinichi emphasizes on the word KID.

Shinichi then proceeds to tear a part of KID’s cape to make a bandage for his bleeding leg.

“Now, ” Shinichi started after finishing bandaging KID’s shoulder wound. “We can't stay here. Where's your phone? They broke mine.”

“In my left pocket—” Shinichi fished the phone out before KID could even finish his sentence.

“Who should we call? Your assistant?” Definitely not the hospital or police.

“No... He's out of the country right now.” KID winced. Maybe he really should have listened to Jii-chan and called off this heist from the beginning.

At that moment, KID’s phone screen flashed. Someone was calling him.

“It’s Hakuba Saguru.” Shinichi knew Kaito doesn't really like Hakuba.

“Ugh. That British detective again.” KID snorted. Or maybe it was Kaito to be exact.

“Might as well answer it.” Shinichi pressed the answer button and put it on speaker mode.

“Wait! No—!” Kaito tried to stop him. Too late.

“Kuroba-kun! Is everything okay?! I heard gunshots during the heist!” Hakuba’s voice was filled with concern.

“Hakuba. Kudo Shinichi here.”

“Kudo-kun? Why are you with Kuroba?”

“We got shot. Do you think you can give us a ride?” Shinichi explained casually.

“What?! Send me your location. I'll go pick you two up now.” Hakuba sounded frantic.

“Sure. Thanks.” Shinichi dropped the call and sent their location to him.
“You didn't just do that.” Kaito deadpanned.

“Relax. It's Hakuba. He won't rat you out to the police.”

“But you don't know that!” Kaito squeaked.

“Just trust me.”

“Shinichi—!”

Kaito.” Shinichi’s tone sounded somewhat dangerous. “Do you want to have that conversation now? If not, you need to shut up and leave me in peace.” Shinichi glared at him.

Kaito zipped his lips shut.
Shinichi could be scary sometimes.

5 minutes later.
Hakuba’s car came into view.
Hakuba hurried down and opened the back door for them.

“Get in.” Hakuba and Kaito helped Shinichi in and squeezed in together in the back seat, with Hakuba squeezed in the middle. Baaya drove them away from the scene, heading towards the mansion.

“I’ve already notified the family doctor. He's trustworthy. Won't say a word.” Hakuba assured them.

“Did they catch the gunmen?” Shinichi asked although he already knew the answer.

“No. Didn't even catch a glimpse of their shadows.” Hakuba shakes his head.

“Figures.” Shinichi sighed.

“Kuroba, you okay? You're oddly quiet.  How's your wound?” Hakuba gave a look of concern towards the surprisingly silent boy.

“I'm fine.” Kaito brushed the question off. Hakuba raised an eyebrow at his answer.

“You're sweating. Your eyebrows are arched together slightly, and your left fist is clenched tight.” Hakuba pointed out in a calm manner. “You're not fine.”

“I was shot, Hakuba. Shot by a bullet from a gunmen.” Kaito hissed. “You don't need to point out that I'm in pain.”

“Oh,” Hakuba looked surprised at Kaito's outburst. “I'm sorry for being inconsiderate...?”

“You better be.” Kaito huffed.

“Kaito. Be nice.” Shinichi glared at him.

“Hakuba started it!” Kaito pointed at Hakuba.

“It's okay, Kudo-kun. It was my fault.” Hakuba gave Shinichi a gentle smile.
The car stopped at the Hakuba family mansion.
