However, with the help of [[Heiji Hattori|Heiji]] and [[Ai Haibara|Haibara]], he is able to convince Ran that Conan and Shinichi are not the same. Plus, Haibara has created a prototype antidote for him, and he is now Shinichi! However, the antidote does not last long, and leads to heartbreaking results in the life of Shinichi and Ran.
