1-04: Rejection (1/4)

Because of how shocking the revelations were, the two adults had to put a stop to the interrogation temporarily.

In exchange, the boy, who was named Shinichi Nakamura, had to undergo a body search and a physical examination.

They needed to know various things such as if he was injured or if he was carrying any otherworld germs with him.

Of course, another reason was to confirm that he was truly Nakamura Shinichi.

After all, as far as the people who caught him were concerned, 8 years had passed, and yet for some reason, he came back as if only 2 years had.

Perhaps if he were older, they could argue he was merely lying about his age, but the difference between a 13 year old that has become 15 years old and one that has become 21 years old was not something that could be lied about.

No matter how you looked at him, he was undoubtedly a 15 year-old boy.

His face hadnt changed much from his old photos, the only notable thing being his longer hair.

In response to that, the boy dropped his shoulders and said, I grew taller, but my face and figure hasnt.

It was a trivial issue considering the bombs that would be consecutively dropped on him from here on.

Ok, you can get up now.

Put on your clothes and wait just a little bit more until we finish your examination.

Shinichi followed the instructions of the female doctor and got down the pedestal hed been lying on.

The device that resembled a CT Scan examined his body throughly and displayed it on the monitor for the doctor to see.

Shinichi wasnt interested in the results, but he was curious about the female doctors hair, which was a natural lush green.

Yes, although there was no basis behind it, he could tell in one glance that this was her natural hair color. That was due to him having gotten used to it over in Falandia.

That being said, there was still an indescribable sense of oddity in seeing a greenhead among a group of black-haired Japanese.

Who wouldve thought this world would actually end up interacting with another world.

He had only been given a simple explanation for now, but he was informed at least that much.

Unfortunately, because of all the shocking revelations prior that, he was unable to process it completely.

Kyuu, kyuu Cooed a living creature.

Dont worry, its just a device to examine the body, Shinichi replied.

Although Shinichi didnt show his bewilderment on his face, the small living creature still sensed it and ran up to him.

The small living creature had beautiful golden fur, three tails, and a pair of ears that resembled those of the fox.

When she reached Shinichi, she jumped up onto his shoulders.

A-An All D!? The female officer was shocked upon getting word of Shinichi being All D. Shinichi was shocked too, but his reason differed.

Is it that surprising?

See for yourself. Thats his status after examination.

Strength: D

Stamina: D

Mind: D

Resistance: D

Agility: D

All D. And everything is even maxed out, the female doctor said.

I-Its true I cant believe it Sasamori said.

Is that all? Shinichi muttered.

Unlike the other two, Shinichi said something completely different than them and promptly stiffened up.

The female officer was shocked at how weak his status was, but the boy was shocked at the absence of the most important attribute of them all: Skill.

Fortunately, hed muttered that last sentence quietly, so no one could tell his shock except for her who was sitting over his shoulders.

What a disaster. For you too.

Even if a kid of this rank came back, hell be nothing more than a hindrance, the female doctor said.

You neednt be concerned. Im an Earthling, so I dont mind, Sasamori said.

When the female doctor voiced out her honest thoughts, Sasamoris tone dropped like a lead balloon.

It seems she wasnt the sort who was good at hiding her emotions. That calm response was already the best she could do.

Umm, is the physical examination over?

Have you confirmed that Im Shinichi Nakamura yet?

When Shinichi sensed the disturbance in the air, he brought the topic back to its original course.

He was happy that she was angry for him, but at the same time, he also didnt understand.

The only relationship he had with this doctor was that of duty.

Y-Yes. Judging from your DNA, the marks left by by medical treatment on your teeth, your facial features, and the rest, theres a 99.999999% chance that youre the Nakamura Shinichi who went missing 8 years ago.

She was somewhat taken aback upon seeing how uninterested Shinichi was despite her talking about his status, but she still confidently announced the result of his physical examination.

Shinichi ignored the female officer who heaved a sigh of relief as he found himself both happy that he was scientifically certified as the genuine Nakamura Shinichi, and indescribably anxious that this was in fact his original world.
