Otosan Mail. Ran Said As She Had Just Got Finished Visiting With Azusa Downstairs In The Caf.

               “Otosan mail.” Ran said as she had just got finished visiting with Azusa downstairs in the café.

               “A letter from the ask box?” Kogoro asked reading the paper surprised have just put the sign and box that morning.

               “No, it a package. A very heavy package. It’s from….” Ran raised and eyebrow at the package. “‘The Hidden Dragons’ bank in Osaka.” She explained. Kogoro looked at her funny and so did Conan who had been reading a book on the sofa.

               “That’s the bank Heiji helped close down.” Conan said. “The bank manger had been secretly stealing safety deposit boxes and selling them off to pay for the fact that the bank itself was in huge debt.” Conan said running over and jumping onto Kogoro back to see what was in the box.

               “Weird what would they be sending me.” Kogoro wondered and opened the package. He stared for a moment as he was now even more confused. “It a large safety deposit box. Why send me this?”

               “Otosan there is a letter on the side of the box.” Ran pointed. Sure, enough a letter was stuck between the box and the inside of the package. Conan grabbed it and opened it and began to read.

               “Dear Mr. Mouri do to the closer of the bank. Multiple safety deposit boxes are being returned to their owners. In closed is one ‘large’ deposit box that was left in our care. The box in closed has been in the care of the bank for the last 10 years. We are unsure if this is a box that was forgot or miss placed in the past. But after doing some digging your name was find as the ‘signer’ for the box. Note this box was marked as ‘do not accuse’. So, all items inside have never been removed or looked at without your ok. We are sorry for any trouble do to the possible lose of the box or it’s return. Have a nice day and thank you for being a member of ‘The Hidden Dragons’ bank.” Conan read. “Then it’s just stamped at the bottom.”

“……” Kogoro tilted his head. “Weird I don’t remember getting a safety deposit box in Osaka.” He mumbled.

               “Maybe it had been for work when you were on the force.” Ran said tilting her head. Kogoro shrugged and nodded.

               “Well let’s find out whats in the box.” He said grabbing the key that was chain to the side. He popped the lock and the top opened. “Nani!” He exclaimed and Conan and Ran gasp.

               Inside the box had a few strange things. Set of envelopes, a small jewelry box with a protection seal on it, a suit case of some kind and a strange box with bottles and syringe. But the part worrying them most was the letter wrote in blood.

               ‘Don’t you dare forget them.’

“Ask a Famous Detective. An ask box. Why do we need one of those?” Ran asked as Conan chuckled at the odd sign.

“Will, I figure seeing as we have gotten so busy with cases. This is a good way for people to ask about cases they think maybe too small to bug me over or not sure on. Maybe just if they want to pick the brain of the world famous ‘Sleeping Kogoro’!

“If they do that there won’t be much to pick from.” Conan grined at Kogoro. This got him a quick knock on the head.

Just wanna say keep up the great work!♥ The art is amazing

Thank you

               Kogoro let out a deep sigh as they got out of the rental car and headed for the address that was written on the VIP passes. He glanced at Ran and Conan before finally asking.

               “How did you talk me into letting you guys come?” Kogoro looked at his daughter with a slight none glare. She smiled at him.

               “You wanted back up! Just in case the ex-criminal is up to something.” Ran said. Kogoro stared at her for a long time. Waiting if she would say anything else before looking down and turning to Conan.

               “Real Reason?” He questioned.

“She said she would buy you that new Yoko mini figure.” Conan said honestly. Kogoro crossed his arms and let out a very deep sigh again.

“Oh…right!” He said and shook his head. It didn’t take long to get from the parking lot to the building. The three of them stopped to stare a bit.

“WOW is this the place?!” Ran asked her dad. Kogoro checked the ticket and nodded. The place was very showy. Some how both fancy yet new aged. So, the club had a little bit of everything for everyone.

 As Kogoro stared up at the building he scratched his head a bit. He hadn’t noticed it before on the ticket or in the leader. But now with the symbol on the side of the building. Kogoro was hit with and odd feeling at the sight of the club’s name.

“Lazarus? Where have I heard that before?” He said asking really no one. Conan was about to speak up. Shinichi of course was a bucket of info even as Conan. Someone bet him to it. A very big someone.

“Most likely you are thinking of Lazarus of Bethany or Saint Lazarus of Christian Bible. It was believed that he was brought back to life four days after his death by Jesus Christ. So, he is often seen as a sign of rebirth or second chances.” Said the figure towering a bit taller than Kogoro. Kogoro jump to the side in surprise. “Oh, I’m sorry. Being a librarian also oddly makes you a chatter box.” He laughed a bit. “I’m Prof. Oxenfree nice to meet you sir.” As the tall man spoke. A teenager peeked around the large man. He had a bit of a punk style to him. Yet seemed kind of nervous. “Oh, and this is my son Mumbles. We are here to meet some friends.” The boy as Oxenfree spoke suddenly got a look on realization. “Don’t mind him. His just kind of-“ Oxenfree kind of was caught off guard as Mumble ran out and started waving at Kogoro. “Shy?” Mumbles made a weird and shockingly realistic police siren sound as he waved his long-sleeved covered hand at him.

Kogoro stared at the boy. Wondering if there was something wrong with him or if he was excited to see someone famous.

 Then it hit him again. That static! That stomach twisting head slamming static like the day before. Yet this time was a bit different. It was more focused. Like it was forcing a memory to the front of his mind. The strange voice and the words on paper ringing in his mind. “Remember. Don’t you dare forget them!”

An image of him as a younger officer holding a small odd child with strange little marks around his lips. The thought and words danced in his mind for a moment. Before the world finally came back around.

“No way!” Kogoro said holding out his arm as the kid nearly tackled him in a hug. Kogoro was almost on the edge of tears. “Hey there kiddo!”. The kid smiled so brightly as the pair hugged each other so tight. Like the pair was afraid that if they let go, they would never see each other again. Conan, Ran and Oxenfree were left very confused.

 To be continued.

((Hey guys asks Bloody Mouri is back. Please send your ask in! ))

               “Megure you got to be messing with me?” Asked Kogoro staring at his former police partner. Megure with Takagi standing next to him shrugged a bit.

               “Sorry Mouri, but I’m serious. The blood is yours and the only fingerprints on anything are yours and the bank members prints. On the outside of the box.” Megure said simple. Kogoro rubbed his chin slightly. Silently deep in thought. First a strange box with a blood note and now more questions then answers? Conan took the moment to change the subject a bit.

               “Officer Takagi? What are all the items in the box? We didn’t touch anything inside. So we really aren’t sure what’s inside of the box aside from the suitcase, the sealed music box, the strange box and envelopes?”

               “In truth we are still looking into that. The envelopes have money and closed notes. The music box has a protection seal so we haven’t opened it yet. The Strange box I’m having a friend look into it. The suitcase well…” Takagi shrugged and looked up for a moment. Megure sighed.

               “We don’t know.” Megure said.

               “Why not?” Ran asked.

               “We can’t get it opened.” Takagi said. Kogoro and Conan sighed a bit. However, Takagi smiled. “Don’t worry. My friend is good with this kind of stuff. She is a bit strange but she is very smart.” Without any warning someone coughed and cleared their throat behind him.

               “Me strange? Takagi have you met yourself?” Said a woman’s voice. Takagi spun around startled and rubbed his neck and chuckled a bit as everyone else raised an eyebrow.

               “Oh. Ha. Sorry.” Takagi said. The girl who couldn’t be that much older then Ran laughed a bit. She didn’t seem that upset at all.

               “No problem. Hi I’m Jessrin Lotus.” She said. As soon as Kogoro heard the gals name. His head felt like a nail had been driven through it.

               ‘I’ll never forget’. A whisper echoed in his head and he felt like his skull was about to exploded. He grabbed his forhead as his heart pounded a bit his head filled with a strange static. Then it stopped. As soon as it started it was over. Kogoro felt a hand on his shoulder and he looked up.

               “Mouri?” Megure asked worried for his friend. Kogoro shook his head shaking away the last of the headache.

               “I’m ok.” Said and gave a slight cough not noticing he was sweeting a bit. Other then that strange moment he felt fine. Jessrin watched for a moment. Curious about what was going on and if this was normal. Then she finally broke the silence and mild worry.

               “So…..I took a look at the item Takagi asked me to look at. And all I can say is wow!” Jessrin said smiling ear to ear. Like a child who find the best kind of candy.

               “Wow?” Conan asked a bit confused. Jessrin nodded a bit.

               “It’s called a ‘Pires Kit’ back when the US colonies were dealing with the ‘Salem witch trails’. These were often found at the homes of these so-called witches. They were believed to be used to help vampire and demon allies.” Jessrin said very excited. Everyone was kind of now both curious and even more confused now. Why on earth had this been in the security box? “It was said that when the witches or warlocks took a demon or vampire allies. They would keep this as a way to give them blood for when they were weak and-“

               “Wait!” Ran suddenly blurted. “Is the red stuff in the bottles blood?” She asked a bit suddenly panicked. Everyone except for the Jessrin girl was now wondering whose blood was in the bottles in the strange box.
