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

"So, you mean that even though Xiaolan now knows your identity, she's ignoring you and even distancing herself from you?"

"Yes, that's how it is." Conan lowered his head dejectedly, staring blankly at the drink in front of him, but showed no intention of drinking it.

Since confessing to Ran that night, their relationship has not turned out the way Conan imagined. Instead, they have grown increasingly distant. Conan is even afraid to go back to the Mori family home and is staying at Dr. Agasa's house instead.

"Hehe, this is all someone's own fault. Instead of crying here, he should think of a solution himself."

The one who mocked Conan was naturally Ai Haibara. Because it was summer vacation, they didn't have to go to school, so they would come here to eat snacks and chat whenever they had free time.

Incidentally, since that day, Ai Haibara hasn't asked Asakawa Yu about Vermouth, assuming that Asakawa Yu and the others have already taken care of it, which is also a manifestation of trust.

Conan gave a helpless twitch of his lips. "I've tried many methods, but it seems like none of them are working."

Thinking of this, Conan decided not to talk about his own affairs for now, and instead asked Ai Haibara, "By the way, Haibara, since Asakawa-nii said that he has taken care of Vermouth's matter, does that mean that you are safe now?"

Ai Haibara glanced at Conan casually, then said unintentionally, "I guess so. At least as long as we don't do anything stupid, Gin and the others shouldn't find out."

"That's it..."

The thought that everyone was all happy and harmonious after this crisis, while he was the only one who didn't fit in, made Conan feel a little resentful.

"Sigh..." In the end, Conan could only sigh helplessly and continue to think about how to get Ran's forgiveness.

How are you feeling now?

As Asakawa Yu wiped the cup in his hand, he casually asked Haibara Ai.

Upon hearing someone's question, Ai Haibara couldn't help but roll her eyes. "I say, you're just like my sister. There was nothing wrong to begin with, so why are you talking about recovering?"

"Of course, putting everything else aside, you were just sick before, so I can ask you about it."

Asakawa Yu's rebuttal left Haibara Ai speechless.

"Besides, your sister asked that because she cares about you. If it were anyone else, they wouldn't care whether you live or die."

Perhaps the speaker meant no harm, but the listener took it to heart. Ai Haibara raised an eyebrow and then asked teasingly, "Oh, so you're concerned about me now?"

"if not?"

"..."

Asakawa Yu's straightforward answer left Haibara Ai a little taken aback.

"Your sister is my girlfriend, so you'll be my sister-in-law from now on. Neither of our families have any relatives right now, which means you're my family. If I don't care about you, who else should I care about?"

Okay, Ai Haibara admits she can't argue with him anymore. Every time Asakawa Yu bluntly says they're family, Ai Haibara can't find a reason to refute him, since what Asakawa Yu says is actually true.

"By the way, Brother Qianchuan, Uncle said he needs to talk to you and asked you to give him a call when you have time."

At this moment, Conan, who had been thinking to himself, suddenly remembered what Mori had told him when they met that morning.

"Hey kid, if you're planning to go to Asakawa's place, tell him to call me when he has time. I have something to tell him, got it?"

These were Mori's exact words, which Conan happened to remember, so he told Asakawa Yu directly.

"Uncle Mori? Okay, I understand." Asakawa Yu nodded, put the cleaned cup back on the cabinet, and then picked up her phone.

Shortly after, the call made by Asakawa Yu was answered.

"Hey!" came the voice of a middle-aged man from the other end of the line, which was Kogoro Mouri's voice.

"Hey Uncle Mori, Conan said you wanted to see me?"

"Oh, it's Asakawa. Yes, yes, I just wanted to tell you something, actually..."

As Asakawa Yu listened to Mori's words, her expression became increasingly strange, but it quickly relaxed. However, Conan noticed that Asakawa Yu's expression towards him seemed a little off.

"W-what? It can't be that I'm involved in something inside, can it?"

"Heh." After accepting Mori's invitation, Asakawa Yu sneered, "You really are involved, no, or rather, the cause of this matter is most likely due to you."
