On the third day after Kudo Yuki was discharged from the hospital, the sun was shining and the breeze was blowing. She was sitting on the sofa, enjoying her leisure time, when suddenly the doorbell rang.

Kudo Yuki opened the door and saw Sato Miwako, Miyamoto Yumi and Ogino Ayami standing at the door with condolence gifts in their hands.

"Why are you here?" Kudo Yuki asked in surprise.

"We heard that you were injured, so we came to see you." Sato Miwako comforted Kudo Yuki, her face full of concern.

"Yes, we are all worried about you." Yumi Miyamoto also agreed.

Ogino Ayami smiled and said, "We are relieved to see that you are okay. These are the condolence gifts we brought you. I hope you like them."

Kudo Yuki accepted the gift and expressed her gratitude: "Thank you, I am really touched."

The three of them walked into the living room and sat down. Sato Miwako looked at Kudo Yuki and asked, "How do you feel now? Does the wound still hurt?"

"I'm much better now and the wound doesn't hurt anymore." said Kudo Yuki.

"That's good." Miyamoto Yumi asked curiously, "By the way, did you see the text message we sent you?"

Kudo Yuki took out her phone and looked at the text message: "I saw it. You guys are all complaining about your boyfriends. I just told you about my injury today."

"Yeah, they are so unreasonable." Sato Miwako said angrily, "They didn't tell us earlier that you were injured and needed to rest, and we are still worried."

Yumi Miyamoto also echoed: "That's right, they don't care about you at all."

Ogino Ayami smiled and said, "But they are just too worried about you, that's why they are like this."

Kudo Yuki held her forehead helplessly, thinking: "What is going on? The five policemen all have partners, but I am still single. This wave of dog food makes me feel a little jealous. It seems that I am destined to be a matchmaker."

When Shu Shu saw Kudo Yukisei's hopeless expression, he knew that she was complaining about being single again.

Shushu rolled his eyes like Kudo Yuki and complained secretly: "She is still single. All her good friends around her like her. She is not single, she just didn't realize that someone is pursuing her. Everyone knows that Furutani Rei likes Kudo Yuki.

But Xiaoxue herself didn't notice it. Shushu was devastated. He had never seen such a slow-witted person. He knew the gossips about others, but had no idea about his own gossip. He was quite a character. ]

At this time, the doorbell rang again. Kudo Yuki opened the door and saw Furuya Rei standing at the door.

"Furiya Rei, why are you here?" Kudo Yuki asked in surprise.

"I heard that you were discharged from the hospital, so I came to see you." said Rei Furuya, his face full of concern.

"Thank you, I'm much better now." Kudo Yuki expressed her gratitude.

Furukaya Rei walked into the living room and saw Sato Miwako, Miyamoto Yumi and Ogino Ayami there, and nodded slightly.

"Fōtani, why did you come so late today to see how Xiaoxue is recovering from her injury?" asked Sato Miwako in a teasing tone.

"I've been a bit busy lately, so I didn't see your text messages." Fūya Rei replied calmly.

"You really don't care about Xiaoxue." Yumi Miyamoto continued to joke.

"That's right. Look at us. As soon as we heard that Xiaoxue was injured, we rushed here immediately." Ogino Ayami also echoed.

Furiya Ling smiled helplessly: "I know I was wrong, I will pay more attention next time."

Kudo Yuki looked at Furuya Rei and felt a warm current in her heart. She knew that Furuya Rei really cared about her, but he was usually busy, so he didn't see the text message in time.

"Okay, stop blaming Rei Furuya." Kudo Yuki came to the rescue of Rei Furuya, "He didn't see the text message because he was busy with work."

Sato Miwako, Miyamoto Yumi and Ogino Ayami didn't say anything else, but just looked at Kudo Yuki and Furuya Rei with their hearts filled with blessings.

Everyone chatted for a while in the living room and shared some interesting things recently. Sato Miwako mentioned a recent case that she and Matsuda Jinpei worked hard to solve and felt very accomplished.

Yumi Miyamoto complained that Keimitsu Morobushi was always busy with work recently and had no time to accompany her.

Ayami Ogino shared her experience of going to the hospital. She said it was a happy thing to see patients recover and be discharged from the hospital.

Furiya Rei had been listening to everyone's conversation quietly, occasionally saying a word or two. His eyes were always on Kudo Yuki, full of concern and love.

Kudo Yuki felt the gaze of Furiya Rei, and a warm feeling surged in her heart.

Kudo Yuki didn't know that Furuya Rei had always liked her, but Furuya Rei had been using his friend's identity as a cover, sending messages or calling Kudo Yuki every now and then to show his presence and invite her out on dates.

"By the way, Xiaoxue, have you made any new discoveries recently?" Furugaya Rei suddenly asked this question.

Kudo Yuki shook her head: "No, I've been resting recently and haven't been investigating any cases."

Fūya Ling nodded: "You have just been discharged from the hospital, so you should pay more attention to rest. If you need any help, you can always tell me."

Kudo Yuki looked at Furuya Rei with gratitude and said, "Thank you, Zero."

Everyone chatted for a while, and then left one after another. Furiya Rei also stood up and prepared to leave.

Kudo Yuki called out to Furuya Rei, "Zero, wait a moment."

Furiya Rei stopped and looked at Kudo Yuki.

Kudo Yuki walked up to Furiya Zero and said, "Zero, I want to say thank you to you. Thank you for your concern and care for me all the time."

Furiya Rei looked at Kudo Yuki, with a hint of surprise in his eyes. He continued, "You're welcome. This is what I should do."

A blush appeared on Kudo Yuki's face, her heart beat faster, and she didn't know where to put her hands.

She looked at Furuya Zero and stammered, "Zero... When I'm with you, my heart feels warm... When you're free in the future, you can come to see me. I think our friendship will be even better."

When Furuya Rei heard what Kudo Yuki said, he was delighted. He nodded and turned to leave. The moment he turned around, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a barely perceptible smile.

Furiya Rei knew that what Kudo Yuki said proved that she already had some concern for him, but she herself had not yet realized what it was.

After Furuya Rei left, Kudo Yuki still stood there, and her mood could not calm down for a long time. She didn't know what that warm feeling was, she only knew that when she was with Furuya Rei, she felt very happy and relaxed.

She regarded this feeling as a testimony of friendship between friends, but she didn't know that it was actually the budding of love.

As Rei Furuya walked along the road, he was full of anticipation. He knew that Yuki Kudo was a slow-moving person and that she needed time to accept his feelings. He decided to give her enough time and space to slowly discover her feelings.

Rei Furuya believes that one day, Yuki Kudo will understand his feelings and accept his love.

In the days that followed, Furuya Rei often chatted with Kudo Yuki and asked her to go out and play. He would tell her some interesting stories to make her happy, and would also give her some advice and help when she encountered difficulties.

Kudo Yuki felt very warm because of Furuya Rei's attentiveness and consideration, and she gradually got used to having Furuya Rei around.

However, Kudo Yuki never realized that her feelings for Rei Furuya had gone beyond friendship. She regarded Rei Furuya's kindness to her as a bond between good friends, but she never thought about why Rei Furuya was so good to her.

Until one day in the future, Furuya Rei confessed his love to her...

The next morning, the sunlight poured in through the gaps in the curtains, and Kudo Yuki slowly woke up.

She rubbed her eyes and saw a text message from Sato Miwako on the screen of her mobile phone: "Xiaoxue, come to the girlfriends' party soon." She smiled slightly, got up, changed her clothes, and prepared to go to the designated location.

Kudo Yuki arrived at the party, which was a high-end bar with luxurious decoration and a warm atmosphere. As soon as she opened the door, she saw Sato Miwako, Miyamoto Yumi and Ogino Ayami already sitting on the sofa, holding wine glasses in their hands, smiling and waving at her.

"Xiaoxue, you're finally here!" Sato Miwako waved happily to Kudo Yuki: "We've been waiting for you for a long time."

"Sorry, I'm late." Kudo Yuki walked over.

"It's okay, we just want to get together and chat." Miyamoto Yumi came to the rescue, "Look, we have prepared gifts for you."

Yumi Miyamoto took out an exquisite gift box and handed it to Yuki Kudo. Yuki Kudo opened it and saw a beautiful necklace inside.

"Wow, it's so beautiful! Thank you." Kudo Yuki was very happy.

"There are also gifts for me!" Ogino Ayami also took out a gift box and handed it to Kudo Yuki. Kudo Yuki opened it and saw a pair of earrings inside.

"Wow, so exquisite! Thank you." Kudo Yuki thanked.

"Okay, don't be polite. We are best friends, there's no need to be so formal." Sato Miwako came forward, "Come on, let's have a drink."

Everyone raised their glasses and took a sip of wine. Then, they started chatting.

"By the way, Xiaoxue, how are you and Furuya Rei doing?" Sato Miwako suddenly asked, with a concerned smile on her face and a curious glint in her eyes.

When Kudo Yuki heard this question, her face flushed. She lowered her head slightly, fiddled with her fingers, and said shyly, "We...we are fine."

"What do you mean by pretty good? Are you guys together?" Yumi Miyamoto asked impatiently. She leaned forward, her eyes full of anticipation.

Kudo Yuki raised her head, looked at Sato Miwako and Miyamoto Yumi, then quickly lowered her head and shook her head: "We are friends."

Ogino Ayami had been listening to everyone's conversation quietly. At this time, she looked at Kudo Yuki with a smile, and sighed in her heart.

She understood what Kudo Yuki's reaction meant. This was a rhythm that she herself had not yet realized. At least it was much stronger than before.

Ogino Ayami knew that Kudo Yuki was a rather slow person and she was always slow to realize things about her feelings.

However, she also saw Kudo Yuki's care and concern for Furuya Rei, which made her feel very comforted.

Sato Miwako, Miyamoto Yumi and Ogino Ayami looked at each other, communicating with their eyes whether they should break the window paper.

Miwako Sato frowned slightly, as if she was thinking about something.

Yumi Miyamoto blinked and winked at Ayami Ogino.

Ogino Ayami nodded slightly, indicating that she agreed with Miyamoto Yumi's proposal.

In the end, the three decided to just watch the show and wait for Kudo Yuki to share with them the atmosphere of her date with Furuya Rei.

They felt that if they broke the window paper now, it might make Kudo Yuki feel embarrassed or uncomfortable. Moreover, waiting and observing slowly would make them more expectant and excited.

Yumi Miyamoto took the lead and said, "Let's play truth or dare!"

The three nodded in agreement and started playing the game.

In the first round, Yumi Miyamoto lost. She chose truth.

Miwako Sato smiled: "Who do you like?"

Yumi Miyamoto blushed and said nothing.

"Who is it?" Ogino Ayami asked curiously.

Miyamoto Yumi hesitated for a moment, then looked at Kudo Yuki: "It's a policeman, you all know him."

"Wow, really?" Sato Miwako asked in surprise, "Who is it?"

Miyamoto Yumi smiled and said, "It's okay if you really want to know, it's Morobushi Kagemitsu.

In the second round, Ogino Ayami lost. She also chose truth or not.

Miwako Sato asked a simple question: "Have you ever been in love?"

Ogino Ayami shook her head: "No."

"Why?" asked Yumi Miyamoto.

Ogino Ayami joked, "I never met the right person before. Now, I met Kenji Hagiwara."

In the third round, Miwako Sato lost. She chose to take a big risk.

Miyamoto Yumi and Ogino Ayami discussed it for a while: "Go to the next table and ask a boy for his phone number."

Miwako Sato hesitated for a moment, then nodded. She walked to the next table and saw a handsome boy chatting with his friends. She plucked up her courage, walked over and said, "Hello, can I have your phone number?"

The boy looked at Sato Miwako, then smiled and replied, "Of course."

Miwako Sato got the boy's phone number and returned to her seat.

Ogino Ayami seized the opportunity and without giving Sato Miwako time to react, she quickly asked, "Who is your boyfriend?"

Sato Miwako spoke without hesitation: "Matsuda Jinpei."

In the fourth round, Kudo Yuki lost. She also chose truth or not.

Sato Miwako, Miyamoto Yumi, and Ogino Ayami looked at each other and asked, "What's the latest progress between you and Furuya Rei?"

Kudo Yuki laughed awkwardly: "We are just investigating a case together, nothing special."

"Oh, I see." Miyamoto Yumi asked with a sly smile, "So what do you do when you have nothing to do?"

Kudo Yuki thought about it for a moment, then answered honestly, "Once, Zero helped me a lot."

As the game continued, the atmosphere became more and more harmonious and fun. Before she knew it, a long time had passed. Kudo Yuki also gradually relaxed and began to enjoy this wonderful night.
