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

"Cough cough cough..."

Lin Jiayou was drinking her beverage when Kyogoku Makoto's words almost made her spit out her water.

Shiho Miyano glared at her boyfriend beside her, annoyed.

What do you mean?

It's nothing, it's nothing...

Lin Jiayou responded with an apologetic look, but there was still a lingering hint of mockery in his eyes.

At the same time, he couldn't help but think to himself.

As expected, there's no hope for Makoto Kyogoku and Akemi Miyano; you can see the little boy doesn't even consider that possibility...

"Um, what's wrong?"

Kyogoku Makoto watched as Hayashi Keisuke and Miyano Shiho exchanged glances in front of him, scratching his head in confusion.

Did I just say something wrong?

"No no,"

Shiho Miyano quickly responded with a smile.

“Mr. Kyogoku, what you said makes no problem.”

"What I actually wanted to ask you is whether you have any special feelings for your store manager..."

"Feel?"

Kyogoku Makoto was somewhat bewildered.

He really didn't quite understand this feeling, and how it differed from the previous question.

However, out of politeness, he still spoke honestly.

"Um, I think our manager is really nice. She's a very gentle woman, and I'm very grateful to her for taking me on as a waitress..."

"......"

As Shiho Miyano listened to Makoto Kyogoku's monologue, her expression gradually stiffened.

Was her statement really that... subtle?

Or perhaps, while Kyogoku Makoto's fighting prowess is extraordinary, years of training have damaged his mind, rendering him unable to understand tactful language...

In comparison, Lin Jiayou was practically beaming with joy.

Okay, okay, that's so true to you, Super Saiyan...

Speaking of Makoto Kyogoku, being such an honest man, how did he manage to win over Sonoko Suzuki in the original story? He seems to remember that the two of them didn't get along at first...

Is the "hero saves the damsel in distress" trope really that influential...?

It doesn't matter anymore, anyway, Sonoko Suzuki has nothing to do with Makoto Kyogoku anymore, she's already paired up with Gin...

It seems unlikely that Akemi Miyano and Makoto Kyogoku have any connection now; that guy's not very bright.

I guess we'll still bet on Ireland...

Lin Jiayou thought to himself.

Fortunately, he didn't voice his thoughts, otherwise Shiho Miyano would definitely have vehemently disagreed.

You're clearly a brain-damaged idiot too...

"That's not the feeling I'm talking about,"

Unaware of Hayashi Keisuke's thoughts, Miyano Shiho continued to try to guide Kyogoku Makoto onto the right path through clearer words.

"The feeling I'm referring to is..."

"What is it........."

A familiar voice, drawn out and terrifying in tone, reached Shiho Miyano's ears.

She turned her head slightly, a little stiffly, and looked behind Kyogoku Makoto, and sure enough, she saw one of her closest people...

"Sister, older sister..."

Sherry forced a smile that looked more like a grimace, blinking as she stared at Miyano Akemi.

"You, how did you get out here...?"

"How can I not come out?!"

Akemi Miyano was furious, raising her voice a notch higher than usual, and almost yelled at her younger sister.

"If I don't come out soon, you might just kidnap the only employee in my shop!"

"Hahaha........"

Sherry scratched her head sheepishly and smiled awkwardly.

"Sister, how could that be? We're not those kinds of people..."

"right,"

Lin Jiayou spoke calmly.

"I didn't say a word. It's all your sister's problem, it has nothing to do with me..."

"Cherry, you bastard..."

Sherry glared fiercely at the person next to her.

Unfortunately, before her death glare could take effect, she was already subjected to another person's death glare.

"Shiho Miyano, shut up!"

"Okay, sister!"

Ms. Shiho obediently chose to keep quiet.

Seeing that the noisy noise had finally stopped, Akemi Miyano breathed a sigh of relief, then looked at Makoto Kyogoku.

"Ah-Zhen, I'm sorry to make you laugh. This is my sister, Shiho, and this is her boyfriend."

"No no,"

Upon hearing this news, Makoto Kyogoku showed no adverse reaction; instead, a hint of excitement appeared in his eyes.

However, in his excitement, he didn't forget to express his apologies to Akemi Miyano.

"I'm sorry, manager, I was talking to Mr. Lin and the others for too long..."

"it's okay no problem,"

Akemi Miyano quickly added,

"It's not your fault, I know all that, it's just that my sister is too annoying..."

Kyogoku Makoto's lips twitched. His sister was indeed a bit annoying...

Sherry: MMP.........

"By the way, A-Zhen,"

Akemi Miyano spoke to Makoto Kyogoku again.

"Could you please take down the sign for me later and tell the customers outside that we're closing this morning? We're really sorry."

"Eh?"

Before Kyogoku Makoto could say anything, Sherry exclaimed in surprise.

"Sister, do you finish work this early every day?"

"Fool,"

Miyano Akemi tapped her younger sister's head in annoyance and rolled her eyes at her.

"It's obviously impossible."

"Well, now that you're here, we can't just leave you, you little idiot, standing here like this..."

"Hehe, sister is so nice."

Miss Shirley chuckled, then spoke very magnanimously.

"Tell me, how much is your venue rental fee? I'll pay it!"

"Wow, you still have money!"

Akemi Miyano glanced at her in surprise, then at Chia-Yu Lin, her brows furrowing slightly.

"Shiho, you can't keep using Cherry's money. Even if you're a couple, you need to maintain some financial independence..."

"Oh, sister, I know!"

Sherry felt a warmth in her heart at her sister's worried reminder, but also spoke with a touch of helplessness.

"Besides, I'm the one out there earning money to support the family now. Cherry never leaves the house; he's just a stay-at-home dad..."
