After chuckling twice, Sonoko followed Conan, who looked annoyed, upstairs. Sonoko had brought a photo album for Ran to see, hoping it would help her recover her memories.

The children were eating smoothies, while Sonoko and Ran were looking at a photo album. When Ran saw a photo of the three of them—Sonoko, Ran, and Shinichi—she asked, "Who is this?"

“You mean Kudo? He’s your husband!” Sonoko answered without hesitation.

Conan, standing to the side, was speechless: "What the hell are you talking about?!"

Ai, with a mouthful of shaved ice still unmelted, exclaimed upon seeing Ran's recollection, "She seems to remember!"

Sonoko was pleasantly surprised; this was the first time she had seen Ran react to someone she knew before. She quickly asked, "Ran, do you remember this arrogant guy?"

Conan, not caring about Sonoko's form of address, asked, "Really? Ran-neechan?"

Xiaolan shook her head: "Sorry, no, I just feel like this person is familiar, but I don't know why."

Ayumi suggested, "Then seeing him should help me remember him!"

Genta swallowed a mouthful of shaved ice, raised his spoon and shouted, "Yeah, bring him here quickly!"

"If we could bring him, why go through all this trouble!" Sonoko was also annoyed that Shinichi kept disappearing, and he still hadn't shown up at this point.

"Speaking of which, that high school detective is probably investigating cases all over the country now, right?"

"Honestly, Xiaolan is suffering right now, and I wonder where he's off gallivanting off to!"

The complaints from the crowd were like hammer blows to Conan's heart. He walked to the window and looked at the people coming and going outside. His heart, which could remain calm even when facing criminals, was now in turmoil. A feeling he had never experienced before made Conan's face heavy.
