"Boss, come on, have some more."

At the dinner table, Akemi kept putting food into Asakawa Yu's bowl, as if afraid that Asakawa Yu wouldn't have enough to eat.

Ai Haibara, who was sitting to the side, shook her head and felt a little resentful.

After all, this guy has taken away my sister's attention from me. Usually, my sister would put food on my plate first... Damn it, he doesn't know how lucky he is!

It's not surprising that Asakawa Yu kept pushing him around; after all, his bowl was already overflowing with food, and if he kept taking more, he wouldn't even be able to eat rice.

"Um... I think what I have is enough..."

"Huh? I see..."

Upon hearing this, Akemi paused for a moment, then looked closely and realized that Asakawa Yu's bowl was already overflowing.

"Hehe~ I just wanted the boss to eat more."

Akemi chuckled, her innocent expression making it impossible to get angry at her.

Ai Haibara shook her head inwardly. "Damn it, this older sister seems hopeless."

"By the way, how's it going with Officer Takagi and the others? Did they manage to catch the criminal?" Suddenly, Akemi remembered this and asked Asakawa Yu curiously.

At this moment, Ai Haibara, who had been silent until now, suddenly spoke:

"It seems like they've caught him." Ai Haibara picked up her phone and showed the two of them the text message Conan had just sent her.

It says on it: No problem.

This means that the matter has come to a satisfactory conclusion.

"Oh, that's great! Now Officer Sato can finally get through this," Akemi exclaimed.

As a woman, Akemi could very well understand Officer Sato's feelings. If Asakawa Yu had been murdered in front of her, just like Officer Sato, her situation probably wouldn't have been much better.

"My sister really worries a lot." Ai Haibara spread her hands, sighed softly, but a smile appeared on her lips.

"But isn't that also her strength?"

Asakawa Yu and Haibara Ai seemed to have reached some kind of tacit understanding, and smiled at each other.

"Huh? What are you guys talking about? Why are you suddenly laughing?"

Poor Akemi had just snapped out of her daydream, completely unaware that she had just become the topic of conversation among others.

Just as the dinner table was filled with laughter and joy, Asakawa Yu's phone rang, breaking the atmosphere.

Drop drop! ! !

"Hmm? Boss, someone's looking for you?"

Asakawa Yu picked up her phone, glanced at the contacts, and narrowed her eyes almost imperceptibly.

Seeing this, Ai Haibara and Akemi also sensed something, and the atmosphere became quiet.

"Do you need us to step aside?"

Ai Haibara asked the question without any hint of dissatisfaction, and Akemi looked at him calmly, seemingly waiting for his response.

Seeing the two of them at this moment, it would be absolutely impossible for Asakawa Yu not to be moved at all.

Even though they knew there were many things he hadn't told them, the two sisters still trusted him completely.

After thinking for a moment, Asakawa Yu slowly said, "No need, let's listen together."

Immediately, the two sisters' expressions changed; they were surprised, but even more so, they were moved.

This shows that Asakawa Yu truly considers them as family and partners, rather than as pawns to be used.

After the two sisters nodded, Asakawa Yu pressed the answer button, and that familiar voice came from the phone.

"Boss, we have made contact with the Sindora Corporation as you instructed."

This was Shinji Kido's voice, and what he said was also something Asakawa Yu had asked them to do.

The Syndora Corporation might not ring a bell for some people, but if I mention the Noah's Ark of artificial intelligence, most people will instantly remember it.

That's right, this Sindora Corporation is the company where Chairman Sindora, the adoptive father of Hiroki Sawada, the developer of Noah's Ark, works.

He is also an important character in the Conan movies, specifically in The Phantom of Baker Street.

Hiroki Sawada, needless to say, was a true genius who developed Noah's Ark at a young age, but he also died young because of Chairman Sindora.

What Asakawa Yu wanted was the help of that so-called Noah's Ark.

In an era where everyone still uses flip phones, the assistance of artificial intelligence would undoubtedly be a devastating blow to the Black Organization.

However, since it is quite difficult to subdue Noah's Ark, Asakawa Yu plans to approach it from another angle.

For example, right now, we are trying to meet with Chairman Sindora and get in touch with Noah's Ark through him, which is what people often call the indirect approach.

In the original storyline, the Sindora Corporation only allowed children under the age of eighteen to participate in the game. What if Asakawa Yu were a collaborator in this game?

Unless someone is incredibly naive, Sindora would never refuse a young person who only wants a spot in the game and has a promising future.

For Asakawa Yu, who possesses a system, money is truly just a string of numbers.

Not to mention that Professor Agasa and Conan's father, Yusaku Kudo, participated in the production of this game in the original series. As an investor, it shouldn't be a problem for Asakawa Yu to want one or two game slots, right?

After thinking for a moment, Asakawa Yu said to Kido Shinji, who was still waiting for his instructions on the other end of the phone:

"Great, send me the time and address for our next meeting, and I'll take care of the rest."

Shinji Kido on the other end of the phone didn't say anything more. After replying "Understood," he hung up.

After putting down his phone, Asakawa Yu was prepared to answer a series of questions from the Miyano sisters, but to his surprise, the two sisters were unusually quiet.

She didn't make any move, just quietly ate the food on the table, waiting for him to finish his call.

"Don't you... have any questions for me?" Asakawa Yu asked, sensing that the atmosphere was a bit off.

"Then are you willing to tell us?" Ai Haibara didn't say anything, but just asked in return with a blank expression.

Now it was Asakawa Yu's turn to fall silent.

Ai Haibara shrugged at this, "See, that solves it."

Indeed, there are still many things that Asakawa Yu cannot tell them, including her origins, the existence of the system, the development of the organization, and so on. These are not things that can be told to others.

Just then, Akemi spoke up:

“Since you haven’t told us, it means it’s not the right time yet. We won’t ask until you’re willing to tell us on your own initiative, just as you’re willing to trust us, we’re willing to trust you as well…”
