001 | Edogawa Conan | Written |

[ Conan hadn't yet bothered with writing in the journal, deciding that he'd instead wait and merely flip through the pages. When he'd discovered that they could broadcast what was written in them into other journals he was, naturally, intrigued. There had to be a logical explanation for it, after all. ]

[ Finally, he puts his fountain pen to the page and writes. ]

I came across something interesting and I'm wondering how deep it goes. So, I'm going to list a few things, let me know if they are familiar to you:

Sherlock Holmes

Kogoro Akechi

Al Capone

Interpol

FBI

The Maltese Falcon

The Roman Empire

Arsène Lupin

Kaitou Kid

The Eiffel Tower

Tokyo Tower

Mount Everest

Snow Woman

Coffee Pot

Forensic Science

DNA

Showa Era

No, neither ring a bell. How about the mystery novelist Kudou Yuusaku?

I've never heard of him.

He's quite popular, for some reason the world can't get enough of his "Night Baron" series. I'm not impressed. Though, he happens to be the father of my distant relative. It would seem that things we have personal ties too, don't repeat in different worlds.

I will assume the name Shinmei Nintaro is also foreign to you?

It is.

What do you mean "different worlds"?

Have you ever heard of the multiverse theory?

The physics theory that fantasy and science fiction love to draw on?

Are you suggesting we have proof it's real?

Are you suggesting we don't?

"When you've eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth."

Neither of us has a reason to lie to the other and yet your version of Japan is decidedly different than mine, as my version is different than yours.

It's not every day you get kidnapped into a place where there are ghost pirates telling you to look for treasure. I'm afraid I'm a little out of sorts, still.

You have to admit it sounds insane. Then again, everything so far sounds like something out of a manga.

My thoughts exactly, though I'm not one to ignore the truth when it can be proven.

One last thing, was there a terrorist attack on Tokyo Tower in last few months?

Certainly not.

I didn't think so.

For me, they've only just reopened the observation deck.

Interesting that something that significant would be drastically different.

I was there at the time of the attack. [ And it was also decidedly not a terrorist attack but the public didn't know that. ]

So it stands to reason, then, that possibly any large-scale events any of us witnessed, others might not know. I'm a poor subject for that test, though. I can't say I've witnessed anything of that level of importance.

I lived with a detective, it was an everyday occurrence for me.

Very interesting.
