Hey guys. This has been bugging me for a while now.
So I borrowed a couple of Chinese Detective Conan mangas from a library a few years back. It's been a while since then and I've now gone through the entire manga in English (Or at least to as far as it has gotten).
Thing is, I can't find any of the chapters I remembered reading in the Chinese mangas.
The stories/chapters I remember (roughly)
1. It starts off with Ran and Conan in a bus (?) and Ran accidentally stabs a heavily bearded man while attempting to feed Conan fruit. There's a huge snowstorm and Ran/Conan get stranded but gets a ride from some random guy and they end up at a mansion (Or house?) There they meet some people and someone gets killed. In the end the killer turns out to be the bearded guy from the beginning except he had shaved off his beard. I think at the end Ran gets sad about Shinichi but Conan cheers her up. We then see a silhouette of Conan standing on a stool which projects a taller shadow against the window.
2. Another takes place in a haunted house. Ran, Conan, and Mouri finds an actual dead body buried to the head. In the end, it turns out he was hit by one of the other haunted house guys (Erm, hard to describe how).
3. Third one is about a circus/magic show. The case had to do with manipulation of mirrors. I don't remember this one well.
4. The last one I remember is a bit confusing. Something about fish and aquariums. :S Can't remember this one much either.
They may not necessarily be from the same volume, and probably aren't.
So yeah... May have been fanmade, but I highly doubt it. I'm not quite sure what else it could've been. Maybe I conveniently skipped a few chapters while reading the manga
Would be nice to have some light shed on the situation. It's been bugging me to no end.
