People in Detective Conan are going crazy over the comments section.

"Ayami-neechan, we've come to see you!"

The door to the ward was pushed open, and along with it came the voices of a group of children—the three members of the Junior Detective League, and Conan and Ai Haibara following behind them.

"Brother Asakawa is here too."

Conan and the others weren't surprised to see Asakawa Yu sitting in the chair next to them when they entered.

"Oh, it's you guys! Did you just get out of school?"

When her younger sister and classmates came to visit her, Akemi Miyano greeted them with a smile.

“Yes, we came right after school,” Yuan Tai replied loudly.

"Ayami-neechan, how are you recovering?" Unlike Genta, Mitsuhiko was the first to ask about Miyano Akemi's condition after arriving.

"Thank you for your concern. The doctor said I can be discharged soon."

"Great! I can eat Ayami-neechan's desserts again!"

"Genta, you really are something..."

Actually, before this, the Junior Detective League had already visited Miyano Akemi, and when they arrived, they had already been verbally reprimanded by Asakawa Yu and vowed never to act recklessly again.

But Asakawa Yu naturally wouldn't believe it; if they didn't act on their own initiative, they wouldn't be called the 'Young Suicide Squad'.

"Ayami-neechan, these are snacks we all brought for you, please accept them." Ayumi handed the bag she was holding to Miyano Akemi.

"Oh, thank you so much! But there's just too much food. I can't finish it all by myself. You can all share it."

Touched by the children's kindness, Akemi Miyano happily accepted the snacks, then shared them with a few more children, saying she couldn't finish them all by herself.

"R-Really?! Thank you, Ayami-neechan!"

Genta was overjoyed to hear that there were snacks to eat, leaving Conan and the others speechless.

"Yuanta..."

"Hehe, isn't this great? My sister is happy, and the rest of them are happy too." Ai Haibara looked at them silently, a slight smile appearing on her lips.

This completely baffled Conan. "I didn't expect you could actually laugh?!"

Upon hearing this, Ai Haibara immediately reverted to her usual aloof demeanor. "What? Do you have some misunderstanding about me?"

"No...no, it's just...never mind, Haibara, I have something to tell you later, you see..."

"I see."

Ok? ? ?

Conan was completely bewildered. "I hadn't even finished speaking and you already knew? What do you know?!"

"Let's talk about it after those kids leave." After saying this, Haibara ignored Conan.

"……I see."

Since Haibara has said so, there's nothing more for me to say.

Finally, after what seemed like an eternity, the three little ones said they were about to go home.

"Conan and Ai, aren't you coming back with us?" Ayumi asked, seeing that Conan and Ai Haibara were standing still.

"We'll wait a little longer before going back. You guys should go back first, or you'll miss the tram if you don't leave now, right?"

Conan began to explain to the three of them.

Trusting Conan and his friends, the three children didn't suspect anything and instead smiled as they said goodbye.

"Then we'll be going now. Goodbye, Ayami-neechan and Asakawa-nii-san!"

"Goodbye." With a smile, the Junior Detective League greeted them and left with their backpacks on.

At this moment, only the four of them remained in the room.

"Alright, so what did you want to tell me?" Ai Haibara asked Conan directly.

“This…” Conan glanced at Miyano Akemi and Asakawa Hayao, who seemed to be pondering something.

Finally, Conan mustered up his courage, "Actually, I wanted to ask you if there's any way for me to return to my original form for a short time. I heard from the professor that you seem to have already developed the first stage of the antidote, so..."

"can."

"I assure you absolutely... wait, what did you just say?"

As if he had heard something unbelievable, Conan asked again incredulously.

"I said, fine! If you can't hear me, then forget it." Ai Haibara crossed her arms, looking like she didn't care whether she heard or not.

"No, no, no! I want it, I want it, hehe, thank you so much, Haibara."

Upon hearing that Ai Haibara really had a solution, Conan instantly adopted a sycophantic demeanor, fearing that Ai Haibara might change her mind.

"But you have to promise me first that you absolutely cannot let anyone else know you're still alive, otherwise if the organization finds out..."

"I understand, I understand. I will be careful. So, when can I have the antidote?"

Conan is now incredibly eager to regain his physical body; that's something he's always dreamed of.

"You... never mind, I'll give it to you in a few days. Don't worry, I won't let you miss seeing Xiaolan."

Hearing that his purpose had been exposed, Conan couldn't help but blush. "No...no, I was just trying to avoid revealing my identity. You know Ran already knows that Conan is Shinichi Kudo, and I can't hide it anymore."

“I know, that’s why I came to help you.”

"help me?"

"That's right. The girl already knew your identity when you revealed your blood type. So, if you want to continue hiding, the only way is to have Shinichi Kudo and Conan appear at the same time."

Without needing to say anything more, Conan already understood what Ai Haibara meant.

"...Thank you, Ai Haibara." After a moment of silence, Conan solemnly thanked Ai Haibara.

"No need. Actually, this is for my own sake. If your identity is exposed, I will also be at risk," Ai Haibara replied haughtily, turning her head away.

Seeing this, Conan laughed, "Is that so? Anyway, thanks. Well then, I'll head back now. Ran and the others are waiting for me. I'll be going now."

After saying goodbye to Asakawa Yu and the others, Conan left the hospital and happily embarked on his journey home.

"Are you really going to help him?" Asakawa Yu asked, turning her head as she looked out the window at Conan, who had just walked out of the hospital.

"Yes, as I just said, helping him is actually helping myself."

"In that case, I won't say anything more." Asakawa Yu shrugged, indicating that she wouldn't interfere.

"Ai, could it be that you've really invented a medicine that can restore the body?" Miyano Akemi asked excitedly.

"Well... not really, because at most it can only be recovered in about two or three days, and we haven't done a complete experiment yet, so there might be some discrepancies in the timeline."
