Being in Detective Conan, being officially part of the organization is just too awesome!

"what?"

Lin Jiayou was engrossed in watching and didn't notice what the girl next to him was saying.

Sherry rolled her eyes.

"I mean, haven't we been keeping up with my sister's progress for a long time?"

"What progress?"

Lin Jiayou was slightly taken aback, then seemed to be deep in thought.

"You mean...her affair with Ireland?"

"Yes!"

Miss Shirley clapped her hands, her previously somewhat dejected mood instantly lifted.

"We've been away from Tokyo for so long, don't you want to know how things are going?!"

"Well........"

Lin Jiayou pondered for a moment, then nodded.

"Now that you mention it, it makes sense..."

"Right?"

Sherry continued to speak logically and persuasively.

"You see, in order to create conditions for them, we even made a special effort to keep Ireland in Tokyo."

"If he does nothing during this time, wouldn't that be letting our good intentions go to waste?"

"Then... I'll call and ask?"

Lin Jiayou hesitated for a moment before speaking somewhat tentatively.

Shiho Miyano shook her head.

"unnecessary."

"It just so happens that today is the weekend, a day off."

"Wasn't my sister's shop supposed to open before we even left?"

“We went directly to her shop, ostensibly to support her, but actually to inquire about her progress with Ireland.”

"That way, she won't complain to me later that I came back and didn't even visit her..."

"OK,"

Lin Jiayou nodded and stood up.

"Then let's set off now."

"and many more,"

Seeing Lin Jiayou's anxiety, Shirley quickly said,

"I'll change my clothes..."

................................

A moment later

The two drove to a pastry shop.

This pastry shop was quickly established by Akemi Miyano using her sister's funds in a short period of time.

Upon arriving, Lin Jiayou and Miyano Shiho did not go in to greet them directly, but instead chose to sit quietly in a corner.

"Business is pretty good,"

Lin Jiayou glanced around and at the customers who occupied two-thirds of the seats in the store, and then spoke to Miyano Shiho.

Sherry nodded, her face full of satisfaction, and teased,

"It seems that my sister will be able to pay me back my money soon."

"Hehe, I thought you weren't planning to ask for it back."

Lin Jiayou glanced at her, his eyes full of mockery.

Sherry rolled her eyes, speechless.

"What are you saying? I certainly didn't want to put so much pressure on my sister at the time."

"Besides, even if I don't make her pay back the money, she definitely won't listen to me. I know her too well."

"Stupid, silly, and naive..."

Lin Jiayou didn't speak, but nodded in agreement.

If Miyano Akemi weren't so naive and foolish, she wouldn't have thought of taking Sherry with her to seek refuge with Akai Shuichi, whom she hadn't contacted for two years...

The two chatted casually, without making any move to order anything.

Just then, Lin Jiayou suddenly noticed something, raised his head, and his eyes flashed with a sharp light.

He just sensed something dangerous...

“It’s been a long time, Charlie… oh no, Mr. Lin,”

A muffled sound reached the ears of Lin Jiayou and Miyano Shiho from the side.

What would you two like to order?

"Long time no see, Kyogoku-kun."

Lin Jiayou glanced at the waiter in front of him and nodded calmly.

In front of him, a burly, dark-skinned honey badger was standing quietly with a pen and paper in his hand.

A stiff smile appeared on his face, completely out of character for him, and coupled with his ill-fitting uniform, he gave off a somewhat forced impression of being on the job.

Yes, the dark-skinned waiter standing in front of Lin Jiayou and the other person is none other than the long-lost Super Saiyan Makoto Kyogoku!

Looking at Makoto Kyogoku in front of her, Shiho Miyano's eyes widened, filled with surprise at his presence, as well as a touch of excitement.

"Does Kyogoku-kun work as a waiter here?"

Lin Jiayou didn't order directly, but instead asked Kyogoku Makoto the same question again.

Makoto Kyogoku nodded. Facing an acquaintance, the stiff smile on his face gradually disappeared, replaced by a warm, gentle grin.

"Yes, I just returned to China and plan to find a shop to work in."

"This store happened to be hiring, so I came here."

"I see,"

Lin Jiayou nodded, feeling a bit embarrassed to have Kyogoku Makoto, the waiter, standing there chatting with them, so he symbolically ordered two desserts.

"Then this one, that one, and that one..."

"Okay, please wait a moment."

Kyogoku Makoto nodded to Lin Jiayou, then casually jotted down some notes with a pen and paper before turning back to the kitchen to say a few words.

Immediately afterwards, Makoto Kyogoku came out with two more desserts and went to other tables.

Watching his hurried steps, Lin Jiayou subconsciously nodded, her eyes filled with admiration for the man, and unconsciously said,

"He's improved again..."

"what?"

Sherry glanced at Lin Jiayou and asked curiously.

Lin Jiayou spoke calmly.

"Kyogoku Makoto has improved again."

"He was probably only about 60% of the level I was at when I first met him."

"But now, he is about 70% of my current strength... maybe even a little more."

"hiss--"

Sherry gasped.

She knew that Cherry had just broken through recently; it was a breakthrough that came from the accumulation of internal energy, a qualitative change from quantitative change.

However, even after Cherry's breakthrough, Makoto Kyogoku still possesses 70% of his abilities.

Doesn't this mean that Makoto Kyogoku's growth rate during this period was even greater than Cherry's?!

"This Kyogoku Makoto is simply terrifying!"

Sherry exclaimed in surprise.

Lin Jiayou wasn't too surprised by this, and simply said calmly,

"This is normal."

“Kyogoku Makoto is only eighteen years old, the same age as you, and is in a phase of rapid growth.”

“I’m considerably older than him, so naturally my strength can’t increase faster than his.”

"Heh, heh heh..."

Sherry's lips twitched, and she let out an awkward laugh, unsure of what to say.

Although Cherry was praising Makoto Kyogoku, Shiho Miyano had a feeling that she was also subtly promoting herself, but she had no proof...

Lin Jiayou was unaware of Sherry's thoughts; he simply gazed at Kyogoku Makoto with a slightly fiery look, like a lovesick man staring at a beautiful woman, his eyes blazing with a fighting spirit.

"I really want to do it with him again..."
