Shuichi looks baffled through the message log on the phone.
SHUICHI
... Eh okay. Ma... Masumi... can

then?
MASUMI
Our middle brother.
SHUICHI
Yes, of course. Our middle brother.
Can I call him?
MASUMI
Sure!
Shuichi dials the number of the "middle brother".
After a few seconds, another phone rings out of Masumis
pocket.
Shuichi stares at Masumi.
SHUICHI
Masumi... can it be that... I just
called your other phone?
Masumi merely stands there with a dumb smile on her face.
Beat.
The other phone stops ringing.
MASUMI
Guess our middle brother is too
busy to answer his phone right now.
Maybe hell contact us later.
SHUICHI
We dont have a middle brother!
Masumi pants and looks around anxiously, still with a dumb
smile.
MASUMI
The- then who helped me solve
cases?

MASUMI

SHUICHI
What...?
MASUMI
And apparently our middle brother
is dead!
SHUICHI
Masumi, our mother died... many

MASUMI
No she wasnt. She got shrunk
because of the drug.
SHUICHI
Masumi!
MASUMI
Juuuust like Shinichi.
SHUICHI
No! Shes really dead! And where
did you take this girl from
anyway?!
Masumi looks in different direction with a puzzled
expression on her face.
MYSTERY GIRL
(whispers)

Shuichi grabs Masumis shoulders and forces her to look at
him.
SHUICHI

your meds?!
Masumi eyes Shuichi at last.
Beat.

MASUMI
I want bigger breasts.
SHUICHI
Masumi...
MASUMI
And then Conan will love me.
SHUICHI
Masumi.
MASUMI
Its weird that I like him, cause I
only met him once as a child, so I
shouldnt really have feelings for
him.
SHUICHI
Masumi!
MASUMI
Its also funny how I think I have
a chance considering Shinichi has
already confessed his love to Ran
in London.
SHUICHI
MASUMI!
MASUMI
By the way big brother. Did you
know that our mother and Miyano
Elena are sisters? Which basically
means that you dated your cousin.
Shuichi stays silent for a few seconds.
SHUICHI
... O- okay. I- I think Ill go
call for some professional help...
MASUMI
Whats wrong big brother?
SHUICHI
... maybe Araide can come or
something. Just- Just stay here and
dont move! Ill be right back!
Shuichi hastes out of the room.
Beat.
