Not only does he "accuse the good guy" first, but he also uses "next time for sure" with unparalleled skill.

It's as if these two skills were innate.

The two sisters didn't seem to mind ending their shopping trip early; it was just something they said casually.

Moreover, it was Guangyou himself who brought this up.

After exchanging only a few words, Akemi also went into the bathroom.

Once again, only Kōyū and Ai remained in the living room.

Unlike last night, nothing romantic happened.

The two sat side by side on the sofa, and Guangyou put his arm around her shoulder.

During dinner tonight, the topic of China, his hometown, came up.

On a whim, he began to tell her about his childhood.

He once confessed his origins, but Ai didn't believe him.

Therefore, he was simply telling a story.

What's past is past.

He won't be like a small minority:

They still find themselves immersed in memories of events that happened many years ago.

Unless it involves issues that touch upon his principles.

When it comes to sad things, although I do feel sad, it's actually okay, it only lasts for a few seconds.

More than anything, I feel a sense of感慨 (gǎnkǎi, a complex emotion encompassing feelings, reflection, and a sense of

Unexpectedly, so many years have passed in the blink of an eye.

There's never enough time.

Besides that, Guangyou felt warm inside.

Because whenever he talks about such things, Ai, who is beside him, will hold his hand tightly and say a few words of comfort.

Unfortunately, he lost many memories because of that accident.

Those things that left a deep impression on him will be clearer, while some things he only vaguely remembers.

Even more serious is the feeling that such a thing happened, but being unable to recall it at all.

The most serious problem is forgetting that something happened.

But... he doesn't realize that, so of course it doesn't count.

When talking about sad things, Ai would take Kousuke's hand tightly, comforting him while using this gesture to tell him:

"I'm still here for you."

When talking about happy things, Ai would also chuckle lightly.

Under the warm lighting, the atmosphere between the two was not romantic, but rather cozy.

It has a sense of peaceful tranquility.

They savored their relationship at a leisurely pace.

There weren't any particularly romantic moments, nor was it as thrilling as the Ferris wheel ride, but there were many sweet little moments.

Every story eventually comes to an end.

This time, it wasn't Guangyou who finished telling his whole story.

It was only because it was getting late that we had to end it.

However, this is for the best.

I'll leave some stories for next time.

After chatting with the two sisters for a while, Guangyou sat on the sofa and watched them walk into the room.

"Bang..."

They watched as the two closed the door.

He got up, turned off the living room light, drew the curtains, and lay down on the sofa, ready to sleep.

Before going to sleep, Guangyou sent a message to a certain bespectacled kid.

Ask him to help take the schoolbag over.

I have to go to school tomorrow, so a schoolbag is essential.

Going back to the agency to get it would probably be too late, so I had to ask Conan to bring it for me.

It is not free.

The price he paid was a lavish meal he prepared.

It was just a casual matter, so Guangyou agreed.

Having received Conan's affirmative reply, she ignored his teasing remark that "he doesn't even go home anymore."

He put away his phone and closed his eyes.

...

The next morning.

After breakfast, Kōyū and Ai were about to leave Akemi Apartment.

Before leaving, when Ai wasn't looking, Kousuke told Akemi again about their meeting:

"Sis, I've arranged for you to meet him this weekend."

"If anything comes up, remember to contact me."

"If the plans change, I will send you a message."

Suppressing her inner anticipation and the lingering nervousness from yesterday, Akemi pursed her lips and nodded:

"I see."

"Let's go."

Unaware of this, Ai beckoned Kousuke to leave.

After speaking to Kousuke, Ai said goodbye to Akemi:

"Sister, we'll be going now."

Although they felt a little reluctant to part ways and thought that time had passed too quickly, the two of them still had to leave eventually.

After all, they still have to go to school.

She nodded with a gentle smile on her face:

"good."

After listening to Mingmei's instructions, the two turned and left.

Standing in front of the apartment, watching the two figures walk away side by side, Akemi smiled slightly.

Thinking about their meeting this weekend, her smile widened.

Just like the sunlight this morning.

Gentle, warm...

...

The two boarded the bus and went to get Ai's schoolbag.

Without asking where Conan was, the two grabbed their schoolbags and headed straight for Teitan Elementary School.

School days are still the same, nothing has changed:

During class, during lunch break, taking walks outside with Ai, during morning and afternoon classes, after school...

Very regular.

I was planning to go to the Mika Library to borrow a couple of books.

But then Guangyou suddenly remembered something.

After parting ways with Ayumi and the others at the school gate, she told Conan she would go back later...

He then led Ai to a quiet path next to the back gate of Teitan Elementary School, a path that was usually deserted.

When the two arrived, there was no one on the road.

After glancing at the trees on both sides of the road, Ai turned her gaze to Kōyū.

She asked:

What happened here?

"I just came to see these trees."

As he spoke, Guangyou placed his hand on one of the trees.
