Shinichi
Kudo is a high-school student who, by using observation and deduction,
is good at solving mysteries. While investigating one, he is caught by
the criminals that he was watching and forced to take an experimental
drug. Leaving him for dead, the criminals disappear. Instead of killing
him, however, the drug turns Shinichi into a little kid.
To
preserve the illusion of his 'disappearance,' Shinichi adopts a new name
based on his favorite author (Arthur Conan Doyle) and becomes Conan
Edogawa. Ran, his (actually Shinichi's) childhood friend takes this
little boy under her wing and brings him to her home. Conan now lives at
a detective agency run by Ran's father, but his mind is as keen as ever
and he continues to solve mysteries... always allowing Ran's father to
take all the credit.
As far as everyone's concerned, Conan is
just a little kid anyway... even to Ran. This is *extremely* frustrating
to Conan since nobody will listen to a 'little boy.' Despite this,
Conan has a mission... to find the criminals who did this to him and get
the antidote to that drug.
