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

Upon entering the castle, the gardener was explaining the castle's history and the relationships between the First Wife and others to Professor Agasa and the others.

As everyone listened with great interest, a deep, elderly voice came from behind them, "She often says that Dad is just an intellectual spouting nonsense, right?"

"Eh? First...First Madam!"

The woman who came before everyone was the first wife, who had just been introduced. Her face was full of wrinkles, her hair was white, and she wore reading glasses, making her look like a kind old woman with difficulty walking.

"Actually, the child's father had often heard about this before, but he wasn't angry at all; on the contrary, he was quite happy," the first wife continued.

"I'm so...so sorry! I shouldn't have reminded the First Madam of these painful memories." The gardener felt apologetic for bringing up the First Madam's past sorrows.

"It's alright, you don't need to be too nervous. I've long since gotten used to life without him here. It's like the changes in the design of banknotes or the size of passports. At first, it's not so strange, but after a while, it doesn't seem so odd anymore. Time is the most terrifying thing; no matter the joys or sorrows, they all vanish with time!"

[Who would have thought this old lady was a philosopher?]

[Generally, the stranger someone looks, the more likely they are to be the murderer, so this time the murderer is you, First Madam!]

[Impossible! Didn't you see that this old man is disabled? If she's the murderer, I'll livestream myself eating shit!]

"By the way, who are these people?" The First Madam asked the gardener, looking at the unfamiliar Asakawa Yu and the others in front of her.

"Oh, they are the master's friends. I heard that this one is a scientist," the gardener quickly explained upon hearing the first wife's words.

"A scientist? Oh, I see. Then I'll have to ask you to help us solve the mystery of this castle." Upon hearing that Professor Agasa was a scientist, the First Wife suddenly perked up and said to the clueless crowd.

"A mystery?" Asakawa Yu asked, pretending not to know anything.

With the gardener's explanation, everyone finally understood that the castle's lord had said that if anyone could solve the castle's mystery, he would give him his most precious treasure.

Upon hearing that there was treasure, the members of the Junior Detective League became exceptionally excited, and even Conan was somewhat tempted.

After subtly expressing her desire for everyone's help in solving the mystery, the first wife quickly left, using the aftereffects of the fire as an excuse.

But what she didn't know was that Asakawa Yu already knew the location of the treasure she had been longing for.

"You're laughing so happily, have you already discovered something?" At Asakawa Yu's feet, Haibara Ai crossed her arms and squinted at Asakawa Yu.

"Would you believe me if I said I already knew where the treasure was?"

? I believe you? I believe you, my foot!

"Really? Then could you please take me to see what this so-called treasure is?"

Ai Haibara continued to tease Asakawa Yu in a pretentious manner. Although she also trusted Asakawa Yu's reasoning ability, they had only been there for less than half an hour and hadn't even finished exploring the castle when he suddenly told her that he had solved the mystery. Ai Haibara still couldn't believe it.

"Now? Probably not. We'll have to wait until tomorrow morning to see it."

Asakawa Yu's words were actually perfectly reasonable. If the treasure were truly just a scenic view, then it would naturally be most beautiful to see it the next morning. However, Haibara Ai interpreted these words differently...

"Hehe, is that so? Then I'll start looking forward to it. Please help me out." After saying that, Ai Haibara walked straight to find Conan and the other kids.

"Sigh... Why does nobody believe the truth these days?"

"Boss, boss, I believe in you!" Seeing her boss start to express his admiration, Miyano Akemi couldn't help but say.

"Hmm? You trust me that much? You know, I might just be making fun of you guys." Asakawa Yu felt a little strange seeing Miyano Akemi trust him so much.

"Of course, you know, boss, although you can be lazy at times, have a terrible attitude towards life, and are a homebody..."

Hey hey hey!!! How did this suddenly turn into my rant session...?

"But... from the moment I met you until now, you've always done what you said you would, you've never lied to me! So, even if you were just joking, boss, I'm willing to believe you!" As she said this, Akemi Miyano probably didn't even realize that her eyes were filled with light...

"...Why are you suddenly being so sentimental? It's making me feel embarrassed..." For some reason, after hearing Miyano Akemi's words, Asakawa Yu, who was usually calm and collected, suddenly felt a bit hot. After racking his brains for a reason, he could only attribute it to the stuffy environment here!

"In that case... I'll reluctantly take you with me tomorrow to see what this so-called treasure is." Asakawa Yu turned his head away, not wanting Miyano Akemi to see his current state.

"Eh...I see...Hehe, then I'll have to look forward to it."

……

Amidst laughter and conversation, the two finally arrived at the study where Conan and the others were staying.

At that moment, Professor Agasa, Takato Mamiya, and others were gathered around the entrance, seemingly discussing something.

"Did something happen?"

Upon seeing Asakawa Yu's appearance, the three little ones felt as if they had found their pillar of support and immediately ran to Asakawa Yu's side to explain the situation.

"Oh no, Asakawa-nii! Conan is missing!"

"Gone? What happened?"

It seems that Conan has stumbled into that secret passage by accident and has probably already been ambushed.

Sigh, all I can say is that Gin has a worthy successor...

While silently thinking to herself, Asakawa Yu still outwardly appeared anxious.

After searching in vain, and since it was already dinner time, they decided to eat while waiting for Conan to appear.

"Don't worry, Conan is usually very smart, so he shouldn't be in any danger." Seeing the worry written on everyone's faces, Miyano Akemi bent down to comfort them.

After being comforted by Akemi Miyano, the three children finally relented and prepared to go have dinner first.

But only Asakawa Yu knew that Conan was probably lying there pretending to be dead after being hit somewhere...
