Shinichi Kudou is known for solving complex cases that leave the police puzzled with his keen observation skills, logical thinking, and extensive knowledge. During a trip with childhood friend Ran Mouri, he witnesses a suspicious transaction between two men. As a result of this, he is captured and forced to consume poison intended to kill him. However, instead of dying, Shinichi's body shrinks to the size of a grade schooler. Believed dead, he adopts the alias Conan Edogawa, which combines the names of famous mystery authors Arthur Conan Doyle and Ranpo Edogawa, in order to hide his identity while living with Ran and her private detective father. In this new life as a seven-year-old, Conan continues to solve murder cases, all the while working towards exposing those who shrank him and eventually restoring his body to its original size.
