Chapter 1: The New Beginning

Shikamaru Nara glanced at his watch and saw that the clock was slowly turning toward the number 12 pm.

He wore a satisfied expression, as the assignment Gin had given to him today was only 10 seconds away. And now he looked at his watch like an office worker waiting for his time to come home so he could go home.

When his watch showed the time was exactly at 12 pm, Shikamaru stood up from his seat and started walking towards the table next to him.

Seeing Shikamaru who started walking towards them, Shiho Miyano and Akemi Miyano had different expressions on each of their faces.

Akemi Miyano portrayed some sympathy in the smile on her face, while Shiho Miyano had a contemptuous expression on her face.

"Boss, it's time for me to finish work, so now, I must take you back to the organization headquarters" said Shikamaru Nara as if he didn't see Shiho Miyano's contemptuous look.

"My name is Sherry, and I'm not your Boss" said Shiho Miyano with a more scornful look than before, she didn't say much and started to take her bag to leave the cafe.

"Please wait a moment" Akemi Miyano said to Shikamaru Nara who wanted to leave.

"?" Shikamaru Nara stopped his actions and glanced at Akemi Miyano who was smiling gently at him with a doubtful look.

"You said it's time to come home from work, is it possible to work overtime?" Akemi Miyano said as she looked at Shikamaru Nara in front of her with some expectancy.

"Nee-chan, how could someone like him agree..." Shiho Miyano sneered and wanted to ridicule Shikamaru Nara before being interrupted.

"Of course, I don't like working overtime, but if the boss wants it then it's not impossible by spending 3x of my normal hourly salary"

"By the way, my current hourly salary is 10,000 yen"

With a look of disbelief, Shiho Miyano heard Shikamaru Nara's remarks. And what was even more bewildering was that it wasn't like the first time he'd said it even now he stated that like he used to say it.

Shiho Miyano unceremoniously took out 200 thousand yen from her bag and handed the money over to Shikamaru Nara: "work overtime for 6 hours, for the rest, you can regard it as a tip for you"

With his lazy yet satisfied expression, Shikamaru Nara kept the money away and said to the two Miyano sisters "thank you boss for the tip, I hope you guys will have a nice time. Don't forget to remind me if you want to go home"

After that, Shikamaru Nara walked back to his original seat and called the waiter to order a cup of coffee, this time he requested an expensive coffee!

Shiho Miyano gazed in astonishment at Shikamaru Nara who had just sat back down at his desk. That's amazing. Usually, almost everyone appointed to take her to meet her sister was Vodka. Sometimes other members of the organization would escort her.

But usually no-name members (without code names like Gin and Vodka) will immediately escort her back to the organization's headquarters when the time comes. Although Shiho Miyano is also a member with a respective code name within the organization, her status is extremely far below that of Vodka and Gin.

Even a no-name member would normally not listen to her orders.

But what Shikamaru Nara did amazed her. Isn't this guy afraid of Gin and Vodka?!

Shiho Miyano shook her head and continued talking with her sister.

Not that I don't care, but it would be wise to spend this precious time talking to a dear family member. As for other things like whether Shikamaru Nara would still be living to escort her to her next meeting with her sister was another question that was not her responsibility.

Shikamaru Nara is not a person from Japan. No, to be more accurate he wasn't a person from this world. According to the parallel world theory, he is from another world.

He is a lazy ninja. For those of you who can guess, Shikamaru Nara is a young master of the Nara Clan in Naruto!

After coming to this parallel world, he discovered that the core of the body he had in this world was very similar to his and had the same name as him.

The only difference is that this world is more modern than the previous world and both parents of this body have passed away. With his high IQ, Shikamaru Nara can adapt to technology in this world.

The original owner of this body he had now, died unexpectedly. And this was the first time Shikamaru Nara knew that people could die from major depression. Perhaps, but because this body didn't have any soul beforehand so now Shikamaru Nara could occupy this body.

He has also examined the memory he has carefully and found that this body was deceived into joining the black organization at a very young age, of course, because of the lure of money and facilities that were promised to be given to him.

Even though some of the tasks are quite dangerous, this body has been trained by the organization and can also cope with the training well.

As for the task he did today, it was given by Gin because Vodka would drive the car for his respectable brother (Gin) so the task containing escorting Shiho Miyano fell into the hands of Shikamaru Nara who had no other work at home.

Actually, it's more accurate to say surveillance than an escort, but this has nothing to do with Shikamaru. In Konoha, he was very good at stealing some times to be lazy while on missions, and he absolutely accepted this type of mission with both arms open because these missions were harmless.

"Kring~" came the sound of the cafe doorbell opening.

Shikamaru glanced and saw that there were 2 people, one small and one large, entering the cafe. The big one is an old friend of this body. While the small one, it was the first time he saw it.

They are Ran Mouri and Conan Edogawa!

"Ehh, Shikamaru-kun you're here too!" said Ran Mouri when she saw Shikamaru sitting alone in the cafe, and began to come over while holding Conan's hand.

Hearing Ran Mouri's voice, the Miyano sisters stopped chatting for a while and turned their heads towards them. At first, they thought that Shikamaru Nara had a baby face but he is still an adult.

Who would have thought that this high school student knew him, which meant that Shikamaru Nara was a high school student instead of having a baby face!

Thinking of this Shiho Miyano, hated the organization even more.

Even a teenager was not spared!

"oh Ran-chan, is Shinichi-kun not with you?" said Shikamaru while looking at his body memory and found that he was a classmate of Ran Mouri and Shinichi Kudo.

For the reason why Shikamaru was so familiar with Ran Mouri, it all started because of this body's bizarre condition.

Believe it or not, the body he is currently using has supernatural powers. Wherever he went there would be murder incidents. It doesn't make sense!!

Maybe it was because the original owner of this body was always encountering murder incidents that made him asking for the help of his classmates.

Then a classmate suggested going to church. He came to church half-heartly, the more frightening is before he even sat down the pastor of the church he visited was stabbed to death by another follower.

In the end, because of not accepting all these things and suffering from depression, the original owner of this body died.

Because the original owner of this body often encountered with various murder cases, Shinichi Kudo finally carried out an in-depth investigation based on seeking the truth.

Of course, the results of the investigation were useless. Yet, the media even dubbed Shinichi Kudo as the "Savior of the Capital Police Department". A Sherlock Holmes in the Heisei era.

It seems that some of the Medals of Honor that Shinichi Kudo got came from a supernatural phenomenon originating from Shikamaru Nara.

"No, Shinichi said that he was busy investigating another case..... by the way, how have you been lately?" Ran Mouri asked carefully if Shikamaru had run into another murder case.

Since the original owner of this body couldn't bear the feeling that there were killers everywhere, he finally asked permission to leave for a while from the school.

"Thanks to you, it's been quiet lately" he replied. Shikamaru couldn't believe that he would have the same fate and weird powers as the previous owner of the body.

"Ran-neechan, did you come to this cafe to meet this big brother?!" said Conan, who had been overlooked, thus speaking both spontaneously and feeling jealous of his own speculation.

It turns out that Ran-chan fell in love with Shikamaru Nara! Does this person have any advantages other than his good looks?!

Conan thought while holding back his anger.

"No, today Shikamaru-niichan and I just met by luck" Ran said while rubbing Conan's head.

"Who is this little boy?" asked Shikamaru
