 Okay, who nominated me for the council?

[Until told otherwise, he was assuming that this was another one of Kaito's pranks. ]

[And Kaiba has successfully managed to surprise Conan. It wasn't something that happened often.]

...I wasn't actually expecting anyone to have a good reason.

[Kaito's involvement he'd deduced easily. But from what he'd seen of Kaiba so far, he didn't seem the type to do this as a prank. Which obviously meant that he actually believed this reason.]

It would be good to have someone to speak for the kids. But wouldn't it be better to have one of the older kids do this? I'm a first grader, back home.

Age and intellect have a general tendency to be related, but they're not always. I know that better than anyone. People respect you for a reason.

[ Respected was not really the word Conan would have used. Reluctantly tolerated, perhaps.]

And conveniently, I'm in both the right age group and available for a run in local politics.

[A sigh.]

Fine, I guess I'll give running for it a try.

[Once again, Conan thinks that it was good that Haibara wasn't here. She'd already be shouting at him about keeping a low profile. Running for local politics definitely did not fit in that. ]

Glad to hear it. Best of luck.
