This novel is also known as: Hotaru Maru's Perilous School Commute
Conan: Don't come any closer!!!
When objects absorb the essence of heaven and earth, they take human form as tsukumogami after a hundred years. One day, Hotaru Maru, the national treasure kept at Aso Shrine and a treasured blade left behind by Aso Korezumi, opened his eyes.
There was no citadel, no Time Government, and no Time Retrograde Army. He took the form of a six- or seven-year-old human child and was adopted by an ordinary modern family.
Or perhaps they were an ordinary family?
The husband was a renowned professor at the University of Tokyo, and the wife edited a gourmet magazine. Their life was peaceful and happy.
For now, his main task was to...
Go to school.
At his guardian's insistence, Hotaru Maru embarked on a [Peaceful] school commute.
From then on, the villains of Beika Town began to question their lives.
[This uncle looks familiar] - Shuichi Akai. Isn't he Okiya Subaru, a student of a certain someone? Hotaru Maru looked puzzled.
[White hair and green eyes. Could it be that you're...] - White hair and red eyes, and black hair and black eyes, somehow had a child with white hair and green eyes. A certain Public Security officer had figured out the truth.
[Leave it to me. Kids shouldn't try to act tough] - Seeing that Conan was shorter than him, Hotaru Maru bravely stepped in front.
[There was another murder on the way to school today] - So human children really do face this much danger on their way to school?
Conan: I keep telling you, it's just a coincidence!!!
Hotaru Maru is doing his best to fit into human society today, too~
The protagonist is Hotaru Maru, the setting is Conan's world, and this is a daily-life story about a certain someone raising a child.
Hehehe, tremble, Beika! The great demon king Hotaru has arrived!!!
A few notes for readers:
1. This is my take on Hotaru Maru, so there may be some OOC characterization.
2. You can read this without having read the prequel.
3. The main setting is Conan's world. I'll try to avoid using supernatural powers, such as those of a certain someone.
4. The main story leans toward detective mysteries.
