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

Creak! The door to Professor Agasa's house opened.

"Professor, I'm back. Since I didn't know what size clothes that child wore, I just bought them all." Asakawa Yu, who had braved the rain to buy clothes, lifted the bags of clothes in her hands and smiled as she spoke to Professor Agasa.

"Oh dear, you've really gone to so much trouble. Oh, I almost forgot to tell you, Yu, that child is actually a distant relative of mine. I didn't recognize her at first because I hadn't seen her in so long. She's already awake. Actually, her parents work abroad, so she had no choice but to come to me. Um..."

It seems that Miyano Shi... no, I should call her Haibara Ai, has already woken up and told Professor Agasa her identity.

Seeing that Professor Agasa was about to run out of ideas, Asakawa Yu spoke up in time: "Oh, I see. Then I won't go in. I'll come to visit again in a few days when the child is feeling better. Let the child rest well for now."

After handing the clothes to Professor Agasa, Asakawa Yu turned and walked back home.

*Click!* Asakawa Yu casually closed the door to Professor Agasa's house, and the atmosphere around them instantly became quiet again.

"Who was that person just now?" A cold voice came from behind.

"Why did you get up? You still have a fever!" Dr. Agasa said anxiously as he looked at Ai Haibara, who was forcing herself to stand up again.

"Who was that person just now?" the voice asked again.

"Oh, that's Mr. Asakawa, who lives next door to me. He and I brought you back together. Look, these clothes I'm holding were bought for you by him..."

"That person is dangerous! Even though he's well hidden, I still sensed it. It's faint, but he definitely has that organization's scent on him, there's no mistake!" Ai Haibara said anxiously.

"You mean Mr. Asakawa is very likely a member of your organization? But... no, that's impossible. Although I don't know him that well yet, I believe he's not the kind of person who would take lives so lightly," Dr. Agasa said firmly.

"but……"

"Alright, alright, what you need now is rest. Since you've decided to hide here with me, you have to listen to me, okay?"

"I...I understand..." Ai Haibara didn't say anything more. Although the old man in front of her seemed a little dissatisfied, she knew it was all for her own good. Not wanting to disappoint his kindness, Ai Haibara washed herself, changed into the clothes Asakawa Yu had bought for her, and finally drifted off to sleep...

-----------------------------------

The clear, azure sky was cloudless, as pure as jade. A golden sun shone brightly against the blue backdrop, and a white cloud drifted like a lone sail on a blue sea.

That day, As usual, Asakawa Yu arrived at her family's coffee shop early to prepare for the day's business.

Because it was a weekday, there were fewer customers than usual. As he was idly wiping the cup in his hand, a group of elementary school students came into his view.

"Oh, it's Conan. What's up? Did you bring your friends here to help me boost my sales?" Asakawa Yu teased Conan as usual.

[It's time for Asakawa, the handsome guy, to make his appearance again each episode! I need to replenish my handsome guy energy!]

[No way, not again. Every time Asakawa Yu appears, the case always ends in a vague and unclear way. I hope this time won't be the same.]

[That's right, every time this man appears, the case becomes more and more perplexing, just like the billion yen robbery case in the previous episode.]

[After the last episode ended, the official account was completely flooded with negative comments.]

As Conan approached, the number of comments on the screen increased.

"No, we're investigating a case!" the three little ones standing behind Conan retorted in unison.

"You're Conan's friends, right?" Asakawa Yu asked like a gentle older brother.

“That’s right, my name is Ayumi Yoshida.” “My name is Genta Kojima.” “My name is Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya.”

"We are the Junior Detectives!" The three introduced themselves one after another, striking what they thought was a very cool pose.

"Hahaha, alright, alright, so, you little detectives, what do you want to investigate from me?"

Ah!!! He was still so gentle even when facing a group of kids who looked like they were just playing role-playing games! I'm so moved!

[Asakawa-sama's charm is as captivating as ever!]

[Upstairs, please stop your insane behavior!]

Seeing the increasingly outrageous comments on the screen, Asakawa Yu felt embarrassed and silently ignored them...

"It seems she's recovered. It looks like tonight will be the night Haibara confesses to Conan..."

Looking at Ai Haibara, who remained silent in the corner, Asakawa Yu thought to himself.

"Actually, we wanted to ask if a woman wearing sunglasses and all black clothes has ever come into your shop, Asakawa-nii?" Conan asked.

"Hmm...no, because if such a person had ever come to my shop, I would definitely have some impression of them, so I'm sure no such person has ever come here."

"Oh, I see... I'm sorry, Asakawa-nii, we've bothered you. We'll be going now." Hearing Asakawa Yu's reply, Conan immediately ruled out this place, because he knew that Asakawa Yu had no reason to lie to him.

"Okay, you can come over to my place next time you're free. I'll treat you to coffee," Asakawa Yu said with a smile, then waved goodbye to Conan and the others.

If he wasn't mistaken, Ai Haibara seemed to have been observing him the whole time, and her whole body had been tense ever since she entered the store...

No, that doesn't make sense. There shouldn't be anything about me that would attract her attention, right? If I had to pick one, it would be the fight with Gin last time...

No way, you can sense that? Are you really a human radar?! Even I, who's using cheats, am not as good as you!

We've gone off-topic. I remember the murderer in this part of the story was a counterfeiter named Silver Fox...

Tsk! Even though I know they won't be in any real danger, I'm still a little worried. After all, with time travel involved, it's entirely possible that the plot will change.

"Never mind," Asakawa Yu thought to herself, picked up the black coat hanging on the coat rack, put up the "Closed for Business" sign, and slowly walked out onto the street...
