Fourth Deduction [Video]

[This entire situation was completely illogical. He'd seen the murders and he suicides in that other place, before all of his memories simply stopped. And now it was like none of that had ever happened. How was it possible? How had they pulled off that trick?

For once, Conan was stumped. He needed to think. And Conan had always done his best thinking while kicking a ball around.]

Ne, does anyone know where I could find a soccer ball?

Thank you! Um... My name is Hikari!

Nice to meet you. I'm Conan.

Nice to meet you too, Conan!

[Huh, this kid reminded him a little of Ayumi. It was the cheerfulness, probably.]

Have you been in this place for a long time?

[And that look of horror has now transitioned to a glare. The kind of glare that says you would be getting a soccer ball to the head if you were close enough.]

Any time! I don't have school so there's lots of time.

Well, the Golden Apple wasn't an apple. The person who found the Golden Apple got to have Baron Reinhold's fortune. But the apple wasn't an apple, exactly--it was a girl. Miss Flora! You might know her, because she's here. But maybe you shouldn't tell her I told you this...

The Elysian Box was supposed to kill everyone who opened it. It was cursed. Except for the fact that it wasn't really cursed, it just had some gas in it--if you opened the box, the gas in it made you believe whatever you expected to believe.

The mystery of Future London...that one is a bit more complicated to sum up.

I guess that's true. What grade are you in anyway? You really should continue your education somehow...

[Joy. Looks like I get to look forward to more fingerpainting.</i. I'm in first grade.

[She thinks for a moment. It's been a long time since she was in first grade...]

What were you learning before you left? You can read pretty well already, right?

Mmm, my reading is pretty advanced because I'm always trying to read Sherock Holmes. I was learning the multiplication tables and kanji too.

I... heard about a case once called The Golden Apple. But it doesn't sound similar.

Oh that's good! I have a few books around here... but they might be a little above your level... I think there's an elementary school around here somewhere. Or I could teach you a bit if you'd like as well. I can't help much with the kanji though....

[So much for the brief vacation from mind-numbing boredom.]

That's okay, maybe I could practice my English.

Let me see what kind of books I have and I'll try to find you a few more interesting ones. I'm sure a kid your age probably wouldn't be interested in dry medical textbooks. [She laughs a little. Okay...so maybe when she was his age she had been...but she had hardly been a normal little kid.]

Really? What are your Golden Apple case about?

It was a murder in New York City. The location was the performance of a play called The Golden Apple.

A murder! That's awful.

Every time the Professor and I come across a murder, it turns out to be something that just...seems like a murder. I suppose Scotland Yard isn't quite doing their job correctly when they report something as a murder when the person isn't actually dead...

That is completely unprofessional of them. With their reputation they should have a responsibility to do better.

All right--well, I suppose that's a bit unfair.

The first time that happened, the detective wasn't actually a detective but someone pretending to be a detective. And the person that was dead was actually a robot...So that doesn't quite count.

The other time it happened, it was when we found that Elysian box--the one that had the gas in it that made you believe that whatever you expected would happen. So...that time..well, that I can't explain. I can't quite understand how a gas would make you look dead, but I did see Mr. Schrader and he did look awfully dead for a man who would turn out to not be dead later.....

Okay! [But medical textbooks wouldn't be that bad. At least I could expand my knowledge of anatomy while I was pretending to practice.]

[She nods.]

I came here when I was four!

...And how old are you now?

Six! I turn seven this year.
