*Story blurb:*

A story about a whisky who is forced to join the Black Organization and forcibly turned into a genuine liquor. He meets a certain undercover blond police officer, becomes his partner, and is pulled out of the abyss. Then he saves others, setting off an entirely new story.

Whisky has forgotten his name and his past. Brainwashed and controlled by the Organization, he has lost his freedom. Though he carries a “Rescue System,” he has never crossed paths with the main storyline, so its central system has yet to activate.

Until one day, a certain blond police officer appears.

[Important character from the world's main storyline detected. Central System starting, ]

Having developed a favorable impression of the blond police officer from the Detective Conan anime, Whisky places his unreserved trust in the undercover agent. Zero is at a loss over this trust, but there is little he can do about it.

(He could easily escape, but the blond man presses him step by step until he is backed into a corner. Leaning down, he looks into Whisky's eyes.

“Ever since you accidentally hurt me that time, you've barely dared to fight back against me, haven't you?”

“Why?”

“Are you afraid of hurting me?”)

After becoming partners with Furuya, he changes the fates of characters who were supposed to die before the main storyline begins, giving audiences on a “higher plane” a brand-new Detective Conan anime with a different starting point.

What would the Detective Conan world look like if they all survived, and Tohru were no longer alone?

.

Before meeting Whisky for the first time, Furuya always imagined him as a tall, brutal man radiating an intensely dangerous aura. Rumor had it he was taciturn, ruthless, and skilled with a knife, but also formidable with firearms and in hand-to-hand combat.

Until he met the real thing

A harmless-looking young man with clear eyes stood before him and greeted him softly. “It's a pleasure to meet you. I'm Whisky, your examiner for this mission. I look forward to working with you.”

Zero: He even used formal language!

Later:

Whisky, a good kid with incredible strength, a harmless appearance, a serious and sensible nature, impeccable manners, and an obedient, well-behaved disposition, according to Zero.

Zero: He's just far too trusting.

Hiro: And way too easy to fool.

Akai: He has such an intelligent-looking face, too.

The Organization: Huh? Who are you talking about?

Whisky: (well-behaved and innocent) 0.0

The story still officially begins when a certain high school student is knocked unconscious and fed a poison that turns him into an elementary schooler. But the survival of those whose fates were “regrettable” brings a brand-new Detective Conan anime!

“Don't make it sound like Hagi and I died in that bombing.” The curly-haired officer took off his bomb suit after defusing the bomb in three minutes, put on his sunglasses, and said impatiently.

[AAAAAA, Mazda!]

[What does this mean? Is it what I think it means?]

“Oh, Sachiko, say hello to everyone.” The blonde, blue-eyed woman smiled gently, holding a soft, chubby baby.

[Date! Natalie! They got married!!!]

[Let me send 99,999,999 in respect]

[Date and Natalie got married and had a baby, I'm crying, does anyone get me?]

“Matsuda, Hagiwara, and I were the trio who gave the instructors the biggest headache in our year, hahaha.” The crew-cut man laughed as he reminisced, holding their graduation photo.

[What the hell, Gosho? You stopped doing 5-4=0, only to pull this on us?]

[What trio? Weren't they a quintet?]

[The price of their survival is that Zero and Hiro never meet them]

[I'm gonna kill Gosho!]

The Poirot Café finally has an owner.

“Sorry, Amuro. It turns out I'm not very good at anything except making coffee...” The man in wide black-framed glasses scratched his head and chuckled apologetically.

[Does this owner have the same voice actor as Hiro?]

[What are you up to, animation team? Making someone who lost his childhood friend face a person with a similar voice every day???]

(Hiro survived and went undercover as the owner of the Poirot Café. Zero knows.

The five-member police academy squad remains unchanged, so Zero and Hiromitsu can go undercover more easily. Hiromitsu edited himself into the photo of the trio.)

Reader's guide:

Hagi and Matsuda appear later (very little; their appearances will be marked. There won't be a romance plot for them, so ship them or don't, as you like).

1. The protagonist isn't a clown or someone with a secret identity. No fake deaths. He's loyal to the good guys, has top-tier fighting skills, and takes every character seriously. His miserable start is the result of several factors stacking up: the System hadn't activated yet, his abilities hadn't recovered, and his luck stat was terrible.

2. There are forums and comments, but they don't play a major role early on.

3. Everyone gets saved. Whatever the relationship, sincerity is met with sincerity. Zero is the love interest; Hagi and Matsuda appear later.

4. Primarily Detective Conan, with a tiny bit of crossover content.

5. If I fail to capture a character's appeal, that's on me.

6. Some original settings are included.

The next story is tentatively titled “Haikyuu!!: Hinata, Raised by Comments.”

It might also be “After Reading Minds, I Find Gin Is Two-Faced” or “When Matsuda Gets Bound to a White Moonlight System.”

Haikyuu!! is more likely. I'll properly plan out the whole story once the bonus extras are complete. Thank you, everyone. Please add it to your reading lists and favorites if you can; I'd be so grateful!

"Haikyuu!! blurb"

Hinata Shoyo's first turning point came one winter in elementary school.

After accidentally seeing a volleyball match featuring the “Little Giant,” he decided to play volleyball.

The second turning point in Hinata Shoyo's life came after he started middle school.

His heart was full of passion, but when he discovered that his school had no volleyball club and no one to set the ball for him, a box appeared before his eyes

[Welcome to “Hinata Shoyo's Growth Record”]

[Fifteen years of volleyball coaching experience, reporting for duty!]

[Little Shoyo is way too cute, AAAAA!]

[This is Hinata before he even started growing. This time, he won't miss out on middle school!]

[Shoyo, listen up. When you train for volleyball, make sure you remember all this blah blah blah…]

A flood of text engulfed him.

From then on, Hinata Shoyo had the most enthusiastic audience, the most experienced coaches, and the happiest life.

.

A few new players have joined Karasuno's volleyball team this year, and one of them is particularly special.

He has monstrous jumping and reaction speeds, can receive any kind of serve, and has seemingly superhuman stamina. His small figure seems to glow on the volleyball court.

And yet, no one had heard of someone like him among the middle schoolers of the past three years.

“Because my middle school didn't have a volleyball club,” Hinata Shoyo said, a little embarrassed. “I trained by myself most of the time, so I just practiced whenever I could.”

Everyone: ??? You call that “whenever you could”?

“I didn't get five people together until my third year, so aside from playing one match at the very end and losing, I don't have any match experience.”

Those who had seen that match: Hinata, you're way too modest…

“I know I still have a lot to work on, so please teach me as much as you can, senpai!”

Everyone: …They felt Hinata had a slightly skewed idea of his own abilities.

But if even a newcomer is working this hard, what excuse do they have to slack off?!

Hinata Shoyo, who has never played in an official match, doesn't yet know how strong he is after three years of systematic, scientific training from the comments.

He just makes sure to finish his training every day, then happily tells the comments, “Thanks, everyone~”

The comments lose their minds: [AAAAAA, Shoyo, give me kisses, kisses, kisses!!]

.

Hinata Shoyo, the future star opposite hitter on Japan's national volleyball team, is known around the world as “Ninja Shoyo.”

But although he decided to play volleyball in elementary school, no one guided him, and he didn't begin serious volleyball training until high school.

He started later than many others, so he later made up for it with two grueling years in Brazil.

So a lot of people have wondered: What if he had started systematic volleyball training in middle school?

Comments: [AAAAAA, I'm on it!!]

Let the world see your light sooner!

Bonus scene:

Karasuno has gained an incredible little crow. Aside from his incredible abilities, he also has

A certain captain from Aoba Johsai during a practice match: “Little guy, I remember you.”

The setter and captain from Tokyo's Nekoma during a practice match: “Shoyo, long time no see.”

The Shiratorizawa ace's gaze before a match: “Born on concrete…”

At the training camp at Fukurodani Academy, Bokuto: “Hinata! Heyheyhey, ”

Karasuno: Hinata! How do you know everyone?!!

Shoyo: 0.0 It just sort of happened.

Comments: [Don't underestimate Shoyo's maxed-out people skills!!!]

.

Kageyama Tobio devotes nearly all his energy to volleyball. Everyone calls him a genius, but he doesn't think so himself.

He keeps getting stronger, but in the end, no one responds to his sets, and he once again becomes the “King of the Court” everyone calls lonely.

Until he meets Hinata Shoyo.

Hinata Shoyo always draws Kageyama Tobio's eyes and attention.

No matter where Kageyama sets the ball, Hinata always throws himself into chasing it. He wants victory just as much as Kageyama does and loves volleyball just as much. Wherever and whenever they are, they understand everything from a single glance.

They take on countless roles in each other's lives. They're teammates, rivals, friends, and finally…

This time, they're known as the Monster Duo.

Together, from high school to the national youth team, and finally standing side by side before the world!

Note before reading: Kageyama Tobio is the love interest.

This is a preliminary blurb and may be adjusted later.

Theme: Sincerity is rewarded with sincerity!
