Having not checked her affection levels in a long time, Yoruichi Toyama was a little taken aback when she suddenly saw the soaring values ​​of all her best buddies.

Uncle Kogoro has become "friendly" to me?

Touko and Akechi, these two good brothers, are far ahead, holding hands with Akemi, their official girlfriend, and standing in the first tier.

But upon closer reflection, it's no use having a high level of favorability towards Akechi.

While those targets did experience varying degrees of growth, their combined score was still a pitiful less than 200 points.

Moreover, it contains no moisture.

Conan has transformed back into Shinichi Kudo in the game, and his stats have been synchronized.

Given that he is now a good friend and his favorability will continue to grow, Yoruichi Toyama is not too worried.

The main targets for our next attack should be Hakuba Saguru and Kaito Kid.

But now Kidd can't get out again...

Yoruichi Toyama racked her brains, but still couldn't come up with a good solution.

As for developing Shuichi Akai, he didn't even consider it.

Who wants to deal with their ex-husband?!

If this person never gets out, then...

Um……

Yoruichi Toyama considered it again. According to Taro, the affection level couldn't be calculated until all the characters in the romance were completed.

I can't return to the real world.

Staying with Akemi-chan and not going back doesn't seem like an impossible situation...

But what about Ai? What about the brewery?

Given the current situation, without Shuichi Akai and the forces he represents, could the brewery be completely taken down?

With a brewery looming over them, Yoruichi Toyama knew that he and Akemi would never be able to live a peaceful life.

However, to resolve the issue of the brewery, one will inevitably encounter Shuichi Akai.

Only when I reach that point, and my score is high enough, will I talk about parting ways with Akemi.

It should be... still a long way off...

...

Ai Haibara knew that her lab mice had been in low spirits lately.

It should be said that he has remained the same ever since he regained consciousness and discovered that he had also shrunk.

At first, he seemed to want to ask something, but when he looked down at the children's pajamas he was wearing, his expression changed.

Xiao Ai shrugged.

“I didn’t switch these things for you,” she said. “You should know who was with you when you shrunk.”

A public security officer, a policeman, and a detective.

Ai still remembers the strange yet urgent tone in Amuro Tooru's voice when he called her.

And almost immediately a car came to pick her and her sister Akemi up; the driver was none other than Kazami Yuya, a trusted subordinate of Mr. An.

They arrived at a secluded cabin, which was said to be a safe house under close police protection.

Amuro Tooru's face flashed in the doorway before he quickly ushered them inside.

Meanwhile, by the bed in the room, Yoruichi Toyama and Akechi were handling an unconscious boy like new fathers.

The boy looked to be about 6 or 7 years old, but he was thinner and smaller than other children who were developing normally.

Her pale face, sweat-dampened short black hair, and tightly closed, slightly drooping eyes gave Ai Haibara a sense of déjà vu.

"Why did you buy the Mickey Mouse pattern...?"

Upon seeing their arrival, Akechi merely nodded in greeting and continued to complain to Yoruichi Toyama.

Yoruichi Toyama completely rejected this accusation.

"I was already being very kind by not buying him My Melody toys."

As he spoke, he turned to Akemi, gave her a fawning smile like a husky, and then looked at Ai Haibara.

"Your Majesty, please allow me to formally introduce to you the Dark Cuisine World... no, the Puppet Masters of Hell..."

Ai ignored him and rushed to the bedside, where she saw Gao Yuan's face, which had become childlike but still carried a familiar look...

Thinking about all this, Ai felt a pang in her heart and quickly shook her head to make her expression look more natural.

"Of course, that doesn't mean I didn't give you a full physical examination."

Gao Yuan's complexion, which had just eased somewhat, visibly darkened again.

“An eye for an eye, Mr. Puppet Master,” Ai said leisurely, having completely gained the upper hand.

Looking back, I realize I shouldn't have provoked him like that.

However, Ai thought to herself that she wasn't good at comforting people.

They don't even have the ability to cook a delicious meal like him.

All the laboratory can provide is nutritionally balanced but bland meals, comfortable temperature and humidity, and a quiet sleeping area.

But she knew Gao Yuan wasn't sleeping well.

She didn't offer any opinions and obediently accepted the daily physical examinations and medication.

Compared to Conan, the side effects of the drug A remaining in his body can be said to be quite severe.

This may be one of the reasons for his low mood, but it is by no means the whole story.

Ai was thinking hard.

The puppeteer doesn't seem to have any relatives either.

...Is there?

Thinking about this issue, I asked it during the next routine inspection.

"If I had to say, I guess so," Gao Yuan replied casually as he rolled up his sleeves to take his blood pressure.

"Officer Mingzhi and the others also know that I have a half-sister."

Seeing the reading on the electronic blood pressure monitor, Xiao Ai subconsciously frowned.

But my attention was already drawn to that answer.

"Your sister?"

"Tsukuyomi Giselle, whose real name is Misaki Giselle, was adopted by relatives after her mother passed away and changed her surname. She is 20 years old this year."

Xiao Ai hesitated slightly when talking about the last item, thinking that they probably hadn't lived together.
