 [Shinichi knew he had to act. From the moment he had awoken as his true age, the clock was running. He needed an explanation for where Conan was, before anyone began to worry.  More importantly, he needed to establish Shinichi Kudo's prsence in the castle again as someone completely separate from Conan Edogawa.  He could not allow anyone to speculate that their similarity in appearance might mean that they were the same person under an age change. That option had already been lost long ago, the first time the castle had returned him to his true age. There were some in the castle who would remember his previous appearances as Shinichi.

And so Shinichi puts together a plan. Conan couldn't appear in person, but he COULD still exist over the journals. It would have to be enough.

And so Shinichi opens up the journal as he changes the settings on his voice changing bowtie to match his voice as Conan. And then he begins to speak, as the voice changer changes his voice to match that of of Conan.]

I have some great news! Shinichi-niichan is in the castle again!  Its been forever since I've seen him!

[Shinichi pulls the voice changer away from his mouth and continues on in his own voice.]

Oi, Conan. Is such an introduction really necessary?

[He coughs, and then continues.]

Conan has filled me in on the basic facts about this place.  As ridiculous as some of it sounds. I do intend to investigate.

As he mentioned, my name is Shinichi Kudo. I am a detective, and his distant relative.
