Teitan High School.

"Ai, you're really popular!"

A pretty high school girl said to Ai, who was now a high school student standing next to her:

"I received several more this week."

"Being popular isn't always a good thing."

As she spoke, Ai took out the letter she had found in the shoe cabinet.

The letter was in a pink envelope with a big heart on the seal.

Without even opening the envelope, you can tell at a glance that it's a love letter.

She didn't even bother to open it; she simply threw it into the trash can next to her.

The high school girl next to her shook her head, sighed, and said:

Another guy is going to have his heart broken~

Ayumi, standing next to Ai, reflected on the week's events and said:

"This should be the sixth one this week, right?"

"I already told you I have a boyfriend." Ai didn't take it to heart.

She didn't hide the fact that she had a boyfriend.

If you're going to send a love letter under these circumstances, you should be mentally prepared.

Moreover, this isn't the first time.

Given all the previous examples of rejection, this outcome should have been anticipated before even sending the package.

"Ai, to be honest, I still don't understand what you like about Kousuke?" the high school girl asked.

When Kōyū was mentioned, a faint smile appeared on Ai's lips, and she replied:

"His everything."

"I especially like the fact that he likes me."

Time flies, and years pass by.

Ten years have passed, and Guangyou and Xiao Ai, who were elementary school students back then, have now entered high school.

Compared to ten years ago, Ai's appearance has followed the same trajectory as before she took APTX4869.

After all, it's the same person.

The biggest change in her life is in that aspect.

When she was still known as "Shiho Miyano", she went abroad to study as a child and learned various kinds of knowledge without having any friends.

He then returned to Japan and was in charge of developing the APTX4869.

In this decade that can be described as a reboot, she had a complete childhood.

I have family and friends.

Needless to say, her academic performance has always been among the best.

Coupled with her exquisite appearance, even though she has a rather aloof attitude towards others, it has not affected her high popularity over the past ten years.

In comparison, Guangyou seemed much more ordinary:

His grades are slightly above average in the class.

No one has ever seen him perform any talent.

The clothing was a bit lacking.

Its presence is somewhat weak.

In the eyes of high school girls, the only thing that Kousuke can boast about is his good looks and his affection for Ai.

Not just her, but many people's impression of Kwang-woo is like this.

"Those boys must be so envious of Kōyū."

The high school girl glanced at a boy observing the situation from a corner and sighed:

"They don't seem to have any competitiveness, but they just can't compete with each other."

Among the boys who sent love letters, there were some who were handsome and talented, but their love letters still ended up in the trash.

Ai Haibara did not explain this, only saying:

"Because he is himself, unique."

To outsiders, Guangyou is quite ordinary except for his appearance.

In reality, only she and a few others knew that Guangyou didn't want to be high-profile.

His exact words at the time were:

"Being high-profile? Being high-profile won't bring me any benefits."

"I have no shortage of money, I already have someone I like, and I don't need fame, so there's no need to be high-profile."

"However, if someone comes looking for trouble because of my 'ordinary' nature, I wouldn't mind putting on a show of playing dumb to take advantage of them."

"Ai, Jonouchi, let's hurry up," Ayumi urged the high school girl named Jonouchi. "Kousuke is still waiting for us."

"Waiting for her." Ai raised her chin slightly, gesturing towards the castle.

"Let's go, let's go." Jonouchi closed the shoe cabinet door and walked towards the school gate with Ai.

...

At that moment, Guangyou was leaning against the wall at the school gate.

His expression was calm, but his hand gripped the contents of his pocket tightly.

Clearly, his inner world was not as calm as it appeared.

"Let's go."

Hearing Ai's voice, Kousuke snapped out of his daze, looked up at her, and said:

"Okay, let's go then."

Today he invited Ai to play at Dorobiga Park.

It just so happens that there's an event at the amusement park today, and Ayumi and Ai's classmate, a high school girl named Jonouchi, are going too.

He had no objections; it's more lively with more people.

On the way to the amusement park, Ai asked Kōyū, somewhat puzzled:

"Why do you suddenly want to go to an amusement park?"

The park had advertised an event for today a long time ago, but the two of them hadn't planned to go at first. However, Guangyou suddenly asked her to go, so she asked.

"Because there's a special event at the park today." Kōyū kept everyone in suspense, his answer essentially meaningless.

"Still playing mysterious." Ai pouted. "It's been ten years, and it's still the same."

Not to mention the past ten years, even just in the period when the two first met ten years ago, Guangyou had been mysterious several times.

Now it's happening again.

However, she was just venting and didn't really have any objections, saying:

"Okay, then I'll see if there are any special events over there today."

...

After playing for nearly two hours, the group, feeling a bit tired, sat down in front of a dessert shop in the park to eat desserts and rest.

“I remember this spot was an arcade ten years ago.” Kōyū scanned his surroundings, comparing the scene before him with his memory.
