With Conan Edogawa (the name comes from a combination of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and Edgar Alan Poe), in the manga/anime he is a character who was inspired by and models himself after Holmes and he is supposed to have detective skills on the same level as Holmes. He's so good that the Police go to him for assistance despite the fact that he is a teenager. Despite being reduced the size of a school child (due to a poison that was supposed to kill him) that forces him to disguise himself as a grade school student, he still solves crimes.

While I have no doubt you have valid grounds for enjoying those shows, I am still waiting to hear the connection to
what I said: "I have far more
respect for Hercule Poirot"; was it merely a tangent, or do you believe one of those detectives has a quality(ies?) that makes them superior at the art of detecting?

Returning to the suspicious events involving PoohBear, I was looking around an area near his coop and I noticed a small spaceship hidden in the woods. It was interesting that the ship had a seat the looked like it was made to fit a small chicken. Plus, I found a book titled "To Serve Chicken" in the ship...
I wonder if PoohBear is not a chicken but a chickenoid from another planet?

Do you have any proof that this spaceship exists?
Are you aware there is an actual book "
To Serve Chicken", written by AprilHare -- and it refers to leadership skills?
