[Detective Conan] Is Today's Scotland Red or Black?

[Blurb One]

Scotch, the undercover police officer Hiromitsu Morofushi, died and became an invisible ghost, silently following his childhood friend and watching him endure a lonely undercover life in the Crow's nest until, three years later, dawn broke and the organization fell.

When he opened his eyes again, he had returned to seven years earlier. He thought fate had given him a fresh start, but it turned out another version of himself lived inside his body: the Scotch of this timeline, a genuine bottle from the distillery.

A cold, lonely version of himself who had lost everything.

"My name isn't Hikari." With empty eyes, "Scotch" gazed ahead and spoke indifferently. "Someone destined to rot in a world without light has no right to be called by a name like that."

[Blurb Two]

"Scotch" has no memories of his youth. Or rather, his childhood memories are a meaningless, broken puzzle made up of boundless darkness, blood that is sometimes viscous and sometimes dried but always enough to drown him, and a nursery rhyme whose words he can never quite make out. Other than causing him severe psychological problems for a time, those memories have no value at all.

He doesn't remember how he joined the organization or how he became Scotch, but it doesn't matter. A life that was destined to wither from the very beginning would be no different whether it existed or not.

Until one day, someone who also called himself Scotch suddenly came to live inside his body. But no matter how you looked at it, the two of them were polar opposites.

He had to be lying. How could someone as warm as the spring sun possibly be himself? It was hard to imagine.

"It's all right. If it's me, then one day I'll become my own light." "Hiromitsu Morofushi" smiled as if he truly belonged to the unfamiliar name he claimed as his own, and embraced the cold "Scotch," whose soul had been reduced to nothing but chill.

P.S.

◆ Male leads: Hikari and Scotch. A story about Red Scotch meeting Black Scotch, with two souls in one body, sometimes an ally, sometimes an enemy. No romance.

◆ Detective Conan fanfiction, with a rescue for Akemi and the police academy group.

◆ Red Scotch transmigrates. Black Scotch is, at his core, a genuine bottle from the distillery who isn't loyal to the organization. From the start, he doesn't know anyone in the police academy group, including Rei. He isn't gentle, and he's beautiful but doomed to suffer.

◆ Hikari remains the protagonist, but the blurb and setting may be changed later.
