Zero and Akira

Chiaki Amamiya seems like an utterly ordinary college student, but in reality, she is a lone wolf in the organization whose true identity is known to almost no one. She kills her targets without using any weapons, by creating accidents and leading others into committing crimes.

With Bourbon closing in on her step by step, she tries to get away from him but repeatedly fails, coming to understand more and more just how terrifying this man is.

Just when she thinks she is about to lose this battle, she suddenly realizes that the handsome, dangerous man before her seems to have another identity...?

Zero Furuya never imagined that an unarmed college student could make him feel so much pressure. She can easily read people's minds, make clever use of her surroundings, and set traps that catch people off guard, dragging her targets into the abyss of an "accident." Every one of Chiaki Amamiya's ingenious plans leaves him amazed.

And yet, someone with such deadly methods can also show her childish, tearful side without the slightest hesitation, as if two souls live in her body.

In this double contest of intellect and emotion, two people who have always walked alone in the darkness test and use each other again and again, yet unwittingly develop an indescribable understanding. He can always find her in a crowd at a glance, and she can always see the emotions hidden in his eyes.

"You know me better than anyone, yet I have a secret I can't tell you and you alone. Even though our hearts are in sync, this secret must never be revealed."

In the end, they each made their own choices and left their confusion behind. As they grew independently, they also tried to keep drawing closer to each other.

Falling in love with you is the grandest adventure of all!

I'm terrible at choosing titles and writing blurbs, so please believe I did my best...

1. This is a serious drama. The heroine doesn't transmigrate, have supernatural abilities, or possess a golden finger. She's a native of the Detective Conan world. You could say there's some healing, but they don't heal each other; they save themselves, haha~

2. Absolutely a happy ending! Absolutely one-on-one from start to finish!

3. The author is a huge Zero fan and will praise him enthusiastically whenever there's a chance!

4. I'll try to update with over 10,000 words a week... unless I have to travel for work _(:з"∠)_

5. There'll be more Bourbon early on. Their testing and push-and-pull will take a long time because neither of them is someone who can simply give in to those feelings, so it's a very slow burn! The pace should pick up after he switches back to his main identity as Zero Furuya, right? Probably? Maybe?

6. The heroine has questionable morals and doesn't realize it. She's the type who would even use her close friends, and she has some clearly unlikeable traits, so please be warned~

7. I'll try to avoid mentioning other characters from the original series. Even if they appear, they won't get much screen time.

8. There's quite a bit of detective work, and many chapters will be devoted to original cases, since this is a cat-and-mouse pairing. Actually, it's because I really love writing Zero the cat solving cases, hahaha! I'll try to write carefully, but there may still be bugs... Please just ignore them!

9. The story alternates between Zero the cat's perspective and the heroine's!

10. The cover and character design were commissioned from @Huhula Black Magic. I love them so, so, so much!!!

11. The story will incorporate a few settings from other anime, games, Japanese dramas, and detective novels. So far, these include the anime Moriarty the Patriot, the Japanese drama Fixer, the game Tokyo Metropolitan Mystery Case Special Investigation File, the Ayatsuji Yukito Mansion Series, and the anime My Love Story with Yamada-kun at Lv999. Coming later are the Japanese drama Fence, the game Judgment, and the anime In/Spectre, among others! But it's fine if you haven't watched or played them. They won't affect your reading at all!!!

Theme: Bourbon doesn't get much time in the original story, so I wanted to imagine what he might have done during his Bourbon days
