It was a warm evening, Shinichi is looking at the list of groceries as he pushes the cart in the supermarket

"Seriously, why are there so many things need to buy" thought Shinichi unhappy

----------------------------------------------------------

Flashback

Shinichi is reading a newspaper on the sofa with a cup of coffee near him. Suddenly someone tapped his knee, which to be his little brother

"Shinichi-niichan! Can you do me a favor to buy some things in the supermarket?" asked Conan
"Eh? That's a sudden. Why suddenly?" asked Shinichi surprised as he close the newspaper
"I just found out some things that run out, I want to buy myself, but I need to finish our dinner. Here are the list and the card for our needs"
"Oh yeah, you ask dad to make you three different cards"
"After getting that much money from Vespania, I have to be prepared after all, oh and the passcode as usual"
"Alright be right back"
"Yes, thank you Niichan!"

Back to present

----------------------------------------------------------

"Okay, I think that should be everything for house needs... Now for tonight's dinner needs" thought Shinichi as he looked around

"Eggs bargain sale!" shout the storekeeper

Shinichi who heard it quickly run to the source since he did need eggs and the bargain sale is practically his call. Almost all women getting the eggs while Shinichi waiting for a chance to get it, seconds as few women have left, he sees the last rack of eggs which he quickly wants to take but suddenly someone else touches it as well. It was a man that should be in his 20s that have blonde hair and slightly dark skin, quite identical to Heiji

"I'm sorry, but I already touch it first" said Shinichi in polite tone
"I'm sorry as well, but I also touch it first" said the man in polite as well
"No no, I'm sure I'm the one who get it"
"No, I did"

The two just glare at each other as if they don't want to lose the eggs until suddenly the other man come closer to both of them

"Zero! What are you doing?" shout the other man which have a light beard
"Ah Hiro, you asked me to get bargain eggs, but I'm sure I'm the one who got it first before this boy" said the man as if not giving up
"I'm sorry, but I'm a high schooler not a boy anymore" said Shinichi slightly unhappy
"Oh Zero..." said the light beard man as he held his forehead

Suddenly Shinichi's phone rings which to be Conan, he was surprised at first, but then he remembered that this morning is already repaired by Professor Agasa, so he answered it leaving the two-man bickering

"Hello?" asked Shinichi to the phone
"Ah Niichan! Did you already buy the dinner groceries?" asked Conan on the phone
"Not yet, there were some problem-"
"Good! You don't have to buy it, Eri-obaasan just visit me earlier and give a cake for both of us, so you don't have to buy those things"
"Eh? This is for our dessert?"
"Well yeah... That's why I only ask you to buy eggs and butter"
"I see, then I will be going home now"
"Alright!"

Shinichi close the phone and look at the two man who seems to be still talking and he let go of the eggs which surprise the blonde man

"It's alright, you can take it. My little brother called me just now saying that I don't need it anymore. Sorry for the trouble" said Shinichi as he bow and about to go
"Ah yes... Thank you" said the man
"I'm sorry for my friend here as well" said the light beard man
"It's fine, well I should be going" said Shinichi smiles

The high schooler left the two men, but he silently looked to the two who seems bickering. Shinichi notice that both of them are well-built for most men, but not too built like a bodybuilder. He also notices their tone seems to be very polite as well
