nice. i really like the idea of a shrunken shuichi. although, i would have liked a bit more direct interaction with conan.
but aside from that, very well thought out crime, i think.
cheers

Cool story. I don't think I quiet get the relations you've shown between Shiho and Shuichi, but its still really interesting. But really, i thought their only connection was through Akemi. Did I get something wrong or have you added in some more unique little plot devices?

Should I pity Vermouth, Shuiichi, or both? I really like the story! Good job!

I really like this story. It wasn't what I expected, but that make it all the better!

Is shoji Gin, someone else, or an OC. I can't figure it out. I love this story!

This is one nicely written story...sweet.

That was hilarious. Just when I wondered whether Shuichi could be Shiho's brother, Dagron gave me the link to this story. I think it's a very convincing theory you had here. And I liked the funny characterization of Shuichi and Vermouth (despite being a bit shocked at the revelation of their past relationship - Vermouth is old enough to be Shuichi's mother, after all. XD)

I'll read the sequel as soon as I can.

please write more

I'm going to agree with everyone else who reviewed this -- it's wonderful. Definately not what I expected from the summary, either... ^_^;;

I'm impressed. That was really fun to read. And the crime had been very well thought out, though I thought that the mother would not be softened so easily. It's a pity that you're not continuing the fic, but... everyone's got their own lives and opinions.

Im really enjoying your fic. But Im a little new to Case Closed fics and I have a little problem with the american to Japanese names. But still awesome story!

*giggles* oh wow! that was great... actaully I think Akai Shuichi might be one of the most intresting characters if was shrunk *snickers* I honestly love the story.. I guess its too much to hope that you'd think of doing a sequel? *looks hopefully* Story was great tho!

like id lots

Whoa... that is a difficult story to read. Difficult if you tried to solve the case before Conan (Oh well, maybe at least before Inspector Sato. And unforunatelly I even failed in that. I didn't know the murder before he/she confessed.)

But I really liked it. Your story is great and addicting.
If even Shuichi couldn't find out Vermouth's plans - what could they be? What would Conan do if he found out who Shojis "father" is? Does "The End" at the end of this chapter mean that your story is already over and these questions won't be answered?

You know pretty much about what happend in the manga. The "FBI VS Black Organistion"-Chapters in which Shuichi shot Gin's Scope is not that old, is it?
I just wonder how many readers who didn't know that much actually stopped reading at your spoiler warning. ^_^'

BTW: Interesting theory you have about Ai and her relationship with that other character. It sounds impossible at the first moment, but the longer I think about it the less unrealistic it gets...

I didn't know Ayumi had a sister (in which chapter in the manga was that mentioned?), though I remember Mitsuhiko having one...
On the other hand - I don't know anything about the alternative Detective Conan Universe Icka invented. And in AUs, everything is possible.

I really liked this story. Even if it is already finshed.

I agree with the two below me. You really are an excellent writer and you've written Akai really well. So continue. I'd love to see what ensues between Sho-chan and his father, and hopefully some little snippets of a six year old having nicotine-fits. ;)
