Reborn: Hiroshi Morofushi and the Academy's Sixth Student System

Hiromitsu Morofushi died. A bullet struck him in the heart. But Hiromitsu Morofushi came back to life! When he opened his eyes again, an unfamiliar yet unusually lively voice rang out in his mind. "Long time no see, I've missed you so much! Good morning, afternoon, and evening, everyone! The Sixth Man at the Police Academy System is at your service!" Hiromitsu Morofushi: ? Hiromitsu Morofushi: ...I remember the bullet went through my heart, not my brain. The System, horrified: Host, please don't make jokes about hell!!! Fine. Hiromitsu Morofushi quickly got his bearings and assessed his surroundings... ...Cherry trees? The Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department Police Academy???? The System's voice rang out again. "A must-visit spot for anyone who transmigrates or is reborn! The cherry tree in front of the police academy, Zero, Hiro, and catification!" Transmigrators and the reborn? So he'd already arrived in another world. What a surprise. In this world, he and Zero had only just reported to the police academy. But...what was catification? System: It's a random, timed passive buff built into our system! Host, would you like to say hello to Zero and Hiro, who are dragging their suitcases over right now? Hiromitsu Morofushi nodded. Hiromitsu Morofushi stepped forward. Hiromitsu Morofushi stood in front of this world's version of himself and Zero. Hiromitsu Morofushi greeted them: "Meow, meow, meow." Hiromitsu Morofushi: … This world's Rei Furuya and Hiromitsu Morofushi: …???? The System turned into a screaming chicken: Aaaaaah, kitty Hiro!!!! Catification! The best ever!!! Hiromitsu Morofushi: (wearing a benevolent smile) You'd better have a good reason for this. When it rains, it pours, but you don't need to humiliate yourself to die of embarrassment. Reborn Hiromitsu, an unlucky scapegoat, soon discovered that the buffs granted by his "Sixth Man at the Police Academy" identity went far beyond that. Appearance buff... The silver-haired young man stood in front of the mirror, touching his own eyes, so bright red that they clearly weren't normal. His heart was entirely at peace. "System, tell me, how did this guy named Yuu Midorikawa pass the Japanese police background check with an appearance like this?!" System: Silver hair and red eyes! That's the premium setup for a Detective Conan fanfic protagonist! Premium!!! Everyone loves white-haired characters!!! Hiromitsu Morofushi: Then would you care to explain the scar on my back? System: Proof that you were an experimental subject! Who wouldn't weep for a beautiful, pitiful experimental subject?!!! Hiromitsu Morofushi: ... Mental state buff... Reborn Hiromitsu Morofushi, using the alias Yuu Midorikawa and wearing a silver-haired, red-eyed shell, stared at the new wounds on his arm and the diary lying beside him, lost in thought once more. Hiromitsu Morofushi: First, let me make one thing clear: I didn't write that self-loathing diary! The System generated it by itself! I'm not photosensitive!!! I don't have to hide from sunlight! I don't!!! Second, let me make another thing clear: I don't have any self-destructive tendencies right now. The wounds on my arm refresh automatically at midnight! I don't self-harm! I don't!!! Finally, let me make one last thing clear: I feel perfectly mentally stable right now! I prefer to plan every step and keep everything under control! Pushing the limits of life again and again is a mission the System gave me. I'm not crazy, and I don't have a death wish! I don't!!! Thanks for asking. I'm at the police academy, writing a self-criticism. It would be even better if I could stop telling my classmates things like, "Someone like me doesn't deserve to stand in the sunlight." But things didn't go as hoped. Everyone at the academy found out there was a depressed stray kitty around, and every day they started a kitty-catching operation! Hiromitsu Morofushi smoothly became the academy's beloved darling! System: The beloved darling! Hooray for the beloved darling! Hiromitsu Morofushi: (trying to struggle) I thought we were going to have an undercover-agent arc later. Now I'm the academy's darling, so what about... System: No problem! A top-tier Sixth Man at the Police Academy needs to be doted on by both the good guys and the bad guys! You're Gin's accomplice (emphasis) and childhood friend! Vermouth's sunshine! Hiromitsu Morofushi: ...If I really had that kind of standing, I'd be able to do whatever I wanted in the organization. System: Believe in yourself, you can do it! Besides, you even have a name with the surname Karasuma. Going back to the distillery is like returning to a happy home! Hiromitsu Morofushi: (eyes wide with shock) Why don't you just tell me what kind of character this Sixth Man at the Police Academy is supposed to be? System: An organization all-rounder, top hacker, and elite intelligence operative on par with Gin (emphasis), who's been brainwashed, but pursues the light in the darkness! Though he flies straight into the flame, he remains strong despite his injuries, shouldering everything all by himself! Hiromitsu Morofushi: … Physical condition buff... Hiromitsu Morofushi: System, don't you think my skin is a little too pale? System: It's a side effect of the experiments! Everyone has to swallow their tears over every tragic twist involving a beautiful, frail beauty! Hiromitsu Morofushi: I don't need to understand the logic. Could you just turn off the blood-spitting effect when I run laps? System: But you can come in first while spitting blood! That's basic Sixth Man at the Police Academy stuff, just like how you're a sickly beauty who faints from time to time but can beat up five gorillas at once! Six. Then, as Yuu Midorikawa, Hiromitsu Morofushi began the hunt for the mole. The System lounged and sipped tea. "The police investigation and Public Security undercover arcs are already overcrowded. A top-tier Sixth Man at the Police Academy like us has to find a new path!" Save the five police academy students by starting with a mole in the police force! Hiromitsu Morofushi makes a triumphant return! His appearance may have changed, but his mind is as sharp as ever! The all-knowing Sixth Man at the Police Academy, Yuu Midorikawa! (Opening effect)! Important notes: 1. Hiromitsu Morofushi is reborn. No couples except canon pairings, in the literal sense. 2. The main plot is hunting the mole and the conflict between the red and black sides, but there will also be investigations and undercover missions. The story will lean more toward realism in the middle and latter parts, with a fast and exciting pace. The author can't write slice-of-life scenes. 3. The jokes are all in good fun, so please enjoy the story harmoniously! The author still likes the Sixth Man at the Police Academy trope. This story will max out the buffs of both the Sixth Man at the Police Academy and Detective Conan fanfic protagonists (mainly for the jokes), but its content is absolutely not the same as an ordinary Sixth Man at the Police Academy Detective Conan fanfic! 4. It starts out lighthearted, but no guarantees there won't be angst in the middle. The five police academy friends will definitely get a happy ending. 5. The headcanons are as high as Everest, the Black Organization gets a mythical-level power-up, and original characters will appear. Characters will be portrayed with many facets. 6. The author loves the original cast as a group and especially likes Hiromitsu. No character will be treated too harshly, and the author means every character well. 7. This story will include: The Black Organization's authentic workplace environment The many things that happen between the red and black sides The full process of criminals competing to outdo each other Open the door, I'm a police officer! 8. I'm fine with writing advice, but please be tactful, and avoid rhetorical questions or an interrogative tone. Previously completed story: (Detective Conan) The Years I Spent with the Police Academy Squad Blurb: Chishima Tsuru had never seen her parents since the day she was born. The uncle who adopted her had a villain's face and only ever taught her to memorize liquor names. But her uncle was a real hard-ass. While kids her age were struggling with school exams, he was already pushing her to her limits. Identifying poisons, investigating crime scenes, tracking and countertracking, firearms training, interrogation and resisting interrogation... Chishima Tsuru: ...Are we planning to kill and rob people? Some unknown one-eyed middle-aged man: (with a fond look) We're just preparing for the future. What nonsense is this silly girl talking about? Chishima Tsuru: ...? Yes, at first Chishima Tsuru always wanted to slack off. But one day, she finally understood! She couldn't afford to let her skills go to waste! Why was this world so chaotic?! This! Shouldn't! Be! Chishima Tsuru smiled. "I believe this world isn't a complete mess, and I'm willing to give my life to set things right." So she entered the police academy and became sworn friends with five gorillas. The sun had always shone brightly, until one day... Her uncle packed her off and sent her back to a mysterious criminal organization said to have black as its signature color. Chishima Tsuru: ...It's fine. I'm strong. Even if she had to infiltrate that transnational crime syndicate once again, the one that called itself a raven and gave its members liquor code names! From that day on, Chishima Tsuru fully accepted her fate: dressed in black like the wind, always at her side, never appearing in public. It's just a Black Organization. Just a liquor company. Who knows how much fake booze they've brewed? Sure enough, the moment she met some of the organization members, Chishima Tsuru's eyes widened in shock. Organization mission (×) Undercover team-building (√) Chishima Tsuru: !!! Those outlaws were all familiar faces! Bourbon Whiskey: the blond, dark-skinned guy from the police academy, Public Security officer Rei Furuya! Scotch Whisky: the blue-eyed kitty from the police academy, a sniper who looked gentle and mild... Wait, that was just how he looked! Wait, wasn't there another bottle of whiskey...? The liquor company clearly didn't know how to brew whiskey at all. Rye had to be fake liquor too! Great, Shuichi Akai of the FBI, get out of my Japan! (Batman has taken over!) And then there was Ms. Rena Mizunashi... Kir, I've wanted to ask you something for ages. Do the CIA and FBI fight each other often? Whose budget is bigger...? A few years later. Chishima Tsuru had a lot to do. For example... She had to report to a former superior... She gazed at the distant police badge, sobbing. "Three years, then another three years. When are we going to close the net?!" She had to plead with a certain silver-haired assassin... She held up her right hand, bandaged until it looked like a bucket, her expression sincere and earnest. "Look, I'm injured. Could you stop giving me trouble?" She had to perform a loving father-and-daughter act with a certain second-in-command on the black side... Rum: "My child, my child, my darling child!" Chishima Tsuru on the surface: (deeply respectful) In reality: I'm your dad! (red-eyed effect, awakening, hunting time!) She had to play werewolf and battle royale with the liquor company crew... "Guess who I am?" "Guess who I think you are?" Of course, Chishima Tsuru didn't forget to be a detective. Because she finally realized that in this world, being a detective came with a halo and could also perfectly support her fake-liquor missions. Good grief, there are barely any real bottles left in the company! You huge Black Organization, do you have any dignity left as the black side? ...Oh, actually, it seems you do. For example, the silver-haired assassin Gin; Vermouth, who may be watered down but is still the real deal; Mr. Rum, the organization's second-in-command who loves cooking and sushi; and one high-proof bottle after another, loyal to the organization and black to the core... The organization's power seems to be growing and growing. What should I do? Chishima Tsuru fell into thought. No problem, they can be saved! She cheerfully pulled out her Public Security ID. Then she called the boss. "Confess and you'll be treated leniently; resist and you'll be punished severely! I'm a police officer. You have the right to remain silent, but everything you say can be used as evidence in court!" Renya Karasuma: ??? The mastermind behind the Black Organization: This girl...has she gone crazy? Too many people had already sacrificed themselves in front of her. Chishima Tsuru felt she couldn't remain unmoved. The fireworks seventeen years ago took the life of an undercover police officer forever. Then another great fire swallowed a sunflower that had struggled out of the darkness. A white-haired, gray-eyed girl gazed up at the dazzling stars. A brown-haired boy with honey-colored eyes was devoted to the glow of fireflies. A secret plan fifty years in the making had been unfolding in the shadows, reversing the flow of time and bringing the dead back to life... The organization was trying to overturn the world. So then, what should she choose? A peaceful life? Or an unknown pain? The vow she made in front of the police badge at graduation still echoed in her ears. Never forget. Choose hope, even if you have to walk alone into the darkness to protect the light. Choose pain. I'll watch over this world from the shadows as it blossoms into spring. She would become an undercover police officer, carrying both pain and hope. But it didn't matter... The bright moon does not shine on the road to the underworld, and the green mountains do not bid farewell to those who have gone. A huge monument suddenly rose up in the city center, its outline traced in gold beneath the sunlight, shining brilliantly. The shadows of the past were finally buried for good. Everywhere the sunlight reached was filled with light. One day in the future, every home would glow with lamplight, and the world would shine forever. [Important] Content warnings: 1. The heroine is the Sixth Man at the Police Academy. This isn't an anti-cliche story, but it should be fairly distinct. I won't use predictable tropes. I'll only surprise you! 2. There are headcanons and original characters, and the Black Organization gets an epic-level power-up, but it's still full of undercover agents. I'll do my best to make the clashes between the red and black sides tense and exciting! 3. The heroine follows the main Detective Conan plot, but Conan won't be involved at first. She joins the Black Organization, but it's the kind of team-building trip(?) she takes with her police academy friends. She's connected to the black side, but her allegiance is purely, purely, purely, purely to the red side. Her morals are exceptionally upright! If you want to read about a villain who's genuinely loyal to the organization, don't force yourself to read this one~ 4. The pairing is Hiromitsu Morofushi/Scotch, one-on-one! She's just friends with the other four members of the police academy five and the other supporting characters. No crossing the line and no shipping bets~ 5. The author is a fan of the original work and the whole cast, and loves every canon character. No one will be treated too harshly (such as Conan or Shuichi Akai), and I'll do my best to avoid out-of-character portrayals (such as reducing Hiromitsu Morofushi to a stereotype). No canon pairings will be broken up. 6. This is a nontraditional police academy squad fix-it story (the only guarantee is that everyone will be alive in the final chapter; the plot is the plot and isn't written to serve the fix-it). The middle and later parts get a little heavy, but in the angst-filled Detective Conan fanfic scene, it probably isn't that angsty... The ending will bring everyone to a complete, happy ending with all alive in a somewhat mysterious(?) way. Your mileage may vary. 7. The earlier and later chapters are closely connected, with lots of foreshadowing. Skipping chapters isn't recommended. 8. Characters are portrayed with many facets. The red side may have flaws, and the black side may show kindness. A character's morals aren't the author's morals. The overall message is positive! The plot gets more realistic later on, and the red side will win. 9. This story does not contain (read carefully, it does not contain!!!) elements including, but not limited to: Daddy Scotland, Lobster Rei Furuya, Jinpei Matsuda as a dying emergency operator, The womanizing Shuichi Akai or Kenji Hagiwara, Conan as a reckless kid who sees everything in black and white, Vermouth showing the heroine motherly affection, Gin remaining gentle despite the heroine provoking him repeatedly, The Black Organization crew acting like children playing house, Renya Karasuma being capable of nothing but body swapping... (Read carefully, these things are not in the story.) I'm very sorry if you like these elements. This story might not be what you're looking for. I hope you find the story you want soon. A deep bow, a deep bow~ Of course, the young Shinichi in this story (meaning Shinichi Kudo as a child, not Conan after he shrinks) may still be reckless, but that's only because he hasn't matured yet. He'll be different once he grows into Detective Kudo. 10. This story does not contain (it really doesn't!!!) the following plot elements: Forum secret identities, on-screen comments, and character-card reveals, Save-and-reload plots, script swaps, and body swapping... Also, this is a serious story. The conflict between the red and black sides unfolds through a fairly complicated online network (and follows materialism until the ending), so those elements are basically absent. If you like them, check out works by a few great authors in the Detective Conan fanfic community, and you can also pay your respects to the fanfic renaissance~ 11. The story is told from the heroine's perspective. Characters include, but aren't limited to, the Whiskey team and Silver Bullet team that appear in all the major fanfics, as well as Rena Mizunashi (Kir), the undercover group (Riesling and others), Takagi, Sato, and Chiba. Because the plot needs a clear focus, some characters definitely won't get a lot of screen time, but everyone will shine~ Theme: Those who meet will meet again.
