Chapter 1 : the origin

I'm kudo yoshio. I am male and 5 years old. Now I'm in the hospital carrying flowers. I'm here to visit my mother who just gave birth. Now I am the first child and have a younger brother, his name is Kudo Shinichi. (kudo family name)

Knock knock

"Please come in" a soft female voice came from inside the room.

I opened the door, inside there was a husband and wife and a baby. I went in and closed the door.

"yoshio welcome" my father turned his attention to me.

"Ah, yoshio you came to visit kasan. Kasan loves you very much. Come and hug Kasan." my mother opened her arms towards me.

I ran still with flowers in my hands, hugging my mother. "Kasan, here are flowers for you."

My mother hugged me tighter, "ah, my son, how can you be this cute!" I replied only with a smile.

"How about your school son?" my father asked.

"Fun!" I replied with a big smile. "There we play, sing and I can't stop skating on the playground."

"Okay" my father replied, he continued his work.

My father's name is kudo yusaku. He is a famous mystery novel writer. My mother's name is Kudo yukiko. She is a famous actress. Kudo shinichi, my sister will be a detective.

You ask, how do I know? It's easy because this is Detective Conan's world.

That's right, I am a reincarnation. I have a good memory and have many skills from my previous life.

But his previous life was not clearly remembered. That's why my mental age is still the same as my body age. For example, I remember that I was a working adult, but I don't remember how old I was and what work I did.

All I know is that all of my skills even though I can't remember what my job was, I can do it like I've been practicing those skills for a long time.

I can't even guess my job. My expertise ranges from martial arts, office work such as accounting, management, and marketing, to engineering.

Lastly, I don't know whether to say that this power is a good thing or not. Both the previous life and the present life, I can see ghosts, demons, yokai, God, or magical creatures. I knew from my previous life that it would be dangerous if anyone found out. So no one knows I can see those things.

I stare at shinichi stretching his hand to me. I also stretch my hand to his. Shinichi grasp my hand and I smile.

This warm atmosphere makes yusaku and yukiko smile enjoying this peaceful evening.

It's been two months since shinichi was born. Okasan and otosan bring shinichi out and won't be back until tomorrow. I don't want to go out so I stay at home.

I already got used to ignoring ghost. There's one time where I got lost. I saw a demon eating a human. I was lucky that I'm quite far. So I immediately ran. Kasan and otosan pick me up in the police box so I was safe.

I could classify the thing I see into 4. I find out about it when I hack the government, it's one of my skills. But I'm not skilled enough to dig deeper and only found out this things.

Ghost is dead people spirits, they will wander around until it was time for them to reincarnate. I heard it once from their conversation. They were given a numbered wooden plate. It will count down to zero. Once it turn zero they will dissappear and reincarnate. I heard there's a reincarnation agency nearby where the ghost get their plate. As long as they don't disturb anyone they were allowed to wander around.

Demon is a monster turned either from a human or a being that manifests from the negative energy around. They eat humans. And they can be seen. They usually stays in hell, however an accident happen a few decades ago, so the hell gate open. Those creatures start flowing out. An organization was mad eto dealt with it.

Evil spirit is a ghost with resentment. Could be solved either by making the evil spirit wish come true of exorcize it.

Magical creatures is creature who resides in mountains, shrine, or other sacred items or places. Because of these magical creatures that have a cleansing traits, although in a small area surrounding it, that place such as shrine is safe.

Today, I walk back alone. The sun almost set. I have to buy food so I took a detour. With my short leg I know I won't arrive home before the sun set. I'm scared. So I walk towards the nearest shrine. It works everytime a ghost follow me when I'm alone. I wish it would keep me safe.

On the way, I heard footsteps. Then I heard some ghost speak to each other.

A :"kawaisoo, that kid going to die"

B : "yeah. What a bad luck being preyed by a demon"

I flinch when I heard that. The two goes start to follow me when I get out of the convenience store.

A : "I bet 100 coin that he die "(coin \= gold coin. Death's money )

B : "I bet 150 coins that he lives"

A : " you should prepare the money, a puny child won't be able to outrun a demon."

B : " I don't think so. There's still one or two wandering human here. Soreni there's a shrine when we turn left at that intersection."

I started to walk faster. The footsteps also getting faster. The ghosts continues to gossip, but thanks to that I could keep my calm and arrive at the bottom of the stairs of the nearest shrine.

Just as I climb a few steps, I heard the B ghost scream, "look out!" the demon then pounce on me. I barely manage to dodge it, but I stumbled back to the ground.

A : "hah.... That almost made my heart jump out."

B : snort "I thought you want the child to die. With the bet and all." ghost B look at ghost A ready to throw a small stone to the demon.

A : "even if I bet the child die, I'll gladly fish out 100 coin to you if he live. I don't want to see him die"

B : "yeah right." ghost B also pick up a pebble, ready to distract the demon.

I'm thankful for the two ghosts. If not for them, I would already be dead. I make a note to myself to burn paper money for them. Demo I have a more important thing to do right now.

I jump to my left to dodge the Demon attack. But my left arm got scratched. Blood starts to flow down. The demon lick his hand, "what a delicious blood."

Just as the ghosts about to throw the pebble and the demon about to attack again. A figure run past me. Moreover that figure behead the demon with a shiny black sword. The ghost immediately hide behind a pole, still peeking at that man. The demons turn to ash.

As if congratulationing the man, the moonlight that has been blocked by cloud shower the man with it soft light, as the demon ash flutter away, making the man more majestic.

I'm frozen in place. I'm in admiration towards the man. The man sheath his sword. Afterwards, he turned facing me.
