Conan: Tennis Boys' Scripted Murder

Chapter 12 Enrollment Troubles

Like Haibara Ai, Kirihara Akaya transferred to their class halfway through, one after the other.

If he hadn't behaved like a first-grader, Conan would have questioned him and wouldn't have let him join the Junior Detective League.

It was a coincidence that Kirihara Akaya joined the Teitan Three Idiots.

He had just been teleported to this world. When he opened his eyes, he found himself standing at the door of the classroom with a schoolbag on his back and his body shrunk to three heads.

Fortunately, before the nineteen people were teleported, Yanagi Renji pulled him aside and gave him a brief lesson, telling him what kind of things he would encounter and how he should deal with them so as not to arouse other people's suspicion.

It cannot be said that Yanagi Renji got the questions right 100%, but he got 80% of them right, so Kirihara Akashi also found that he was not panicked at all at that time.

He stood next to Mr. Kobayashi and said, "Hello everyone, my name is Kirihara Akaya, and my favorite sport is tennis.

I also like to read comics and play video games. If you want to learn tennis, you can come to me. I promise to train you to be the No. 2 in the first grade. I will be the No. 1!"

After saying this, he patted his chest, looking as if he was in charge.

Conan, who was sitting in the classroom, complained in his heart: This kid is really confident, but he is indeed carrying a tennis bag, it seems that he really likes tennis.

Kirihara Akaya's seat was right next to Kojima Genta, the same seat that Haibara Ai had previously skipped. As soon as he sat down, he was pestered by his deskmate.

"Kirihara-san, are you really good at tennis? But I still think baseball is more fun."

"What? Tennis is the best sport!"

For a tennis professional reserve player to say this, it was obvious that Kirihara Akari was not very happy.

The two of them almost came to blows over which sport was the best.

"It seems that I thought too much. How could this guy have taken medicine and turned into a child like us?"

"Yeah, Edogawa-san, you're being paranoid, he's just a little more mature than Yoshida-san and the others.

But he is indeed an elementary school student, and the organization probably doesn’t know that the drug can make people rejuvenate, otherwise we wouldn’t be sitting here.”

When Haibara Ai heard Edogawa Conan's muttering, she thought he was thinking too much. She also noticed Kirihara Akaya's unchildlike smile just now, but his childish remarks afterwards made her dispel her doubts.

When Conan heard this, he felt that what Haibara Ai said was right, and he no longer doubted her.

What they didn't know was that Kirihara Akaya really had regained his youth, and his original age was 17, the same as Kudo Shinichi, but his path was different from theirs.

As soon as school was over, Genta Kojima took Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya and others to the tennis court.

"Humph! I don't believe you are that powerful. If you have the guts, fight us."

The Junior Detectives have also been learning tennis recently, and they are real beginners.

"Come on, you can come together."

Rikkai University's sophomore ace Kirihara Akaya would never be afraid, especially since his current opponents were a group of elementary school students, all of whom were novices.

In fact, Conan and Haibara Ai were not very interested, but they were dragged to the tennis court together.

Kojima Genta and the other two were already filled with fighting spirit. They all believed that they must defeat the boaster, but they didn't even bring a tennis racket.

"Well, I have some extra ones. I'll lend them to you. Even though they may not be suitable for you, it's better to have them than nothing."

Kirihara Akaya generously lent his spare racket to the Teitan Three Idiots.

Edogawa·Walking Encyclopedia·Conan He carefully examined the racket in the tennis bag.

"The equipment is complete, and each racket is not cheap. Do children use such professional tennis rackets?"

Kirihara Akaya's tennis bag and tennis rackets are his real equipment. The tennis rackets inside are the most suitable for him and are also his favorites. Now they are scaled-down versions.

Genta Kojima took his tennis racket and walked onto the court, but was stopped by Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya.

"Yuanta, let's warm up first, otherwise we'll get hurt."

"Yeah, if you don't do warm-up exercises and just play directly, you'll easily get cramps."

Kirihara Akaya also did warm-up exercises properly. Although he thought it would only take ten minutes, he still took it seriously.

"You serve first."

Kojima Genta and the other two disagreed with the one-on-two or one-on-three mode, and they chose a one-on-one duel.

The first one to take the stage was Genta Kojima. His racket grip was correct, and with the help of Encyclopedia Conan, he knew that this basic foundation would not go wrong.

The serve is also in good shape, but...

"Didn't you eat? You play the ball so limply, without any strength at all."

Kirihara Akaya always gives his all to any opponent, so in the eyes of Conan and the others, his return of the ball is as fast as lightning. Before they can see the route clearly, the tennis ball has already landed.

"So fast!"*2

"He didn't brag, he's really amazing!"

In response to being praised by others, Kirihara Akaya made a "tsk" sound, obviously dissatisfied with the speed of the ball.

The system had previously said that their tennis skills would be weakened, but compared to his previous strength, it was far worse.

He forgot that his current body shape had weakened his tennis ability to a certain extent. His physical strength, endurance, power and other factors had all decreased a lot. After all, he was now an elementary school student.

"Small steps on one foot? Is Kirihara-kun really a child?"

"He might be a tennis genius, great detective. When you were a kid, your reasoning ability was also better than that of ordinary children, right?"

Haibara Ai once again dispelled the doubts in Edogawa Conan's mind. It is true that everyone has different skill points, and Kirihara Akari may be a tennis genius just as Haibara said.

Kirihara Akari, who was having the most fun in the fight, had no idea that he was almost busted again.

"Alas! You are too weak. You can't compare with me."

Even though Kirihara Akaya was forcibly weakened twice, he was still not something that the three idiots of Teitan could deal with.

"Edogawa-kun, Haibara-san, do you want to play ball with me too?"

The two people who were called out just wanted to wave their hands to refuse, but were rejected.

"Conan, Ai, help us win it back!"

"That's Conan. I'll leave Huibara to you!"

"Conan, come on Haibara!"

The two people who were highly expected had to take turns to play, but they did not shine in the tennis skill. From then on, the Junior Detective Team was defeated by Kirihara Akaya alone.

Children all admire the strong, so Genta Kojima immediately invited them to form a team.

"Kirihara-kun, do you want to join our Junior Detective Team? We have helped the police solve several cases!"

"Yeah, yeah, Kirihara-kun is good looking and so good at tennis, he will definitely increase our strength."
