"It looks better this way."
As soon as Kōyū entered the room, he heard Ai say this.
He smiled, struck a pose with a rather narcissistic air, and said:
"Although his body has changed a bit, his face is still so handsome."
While she secretly thought he was quite handsome, Ai Haibara was actually expressing her dislike for Kousuke.
"Narcissism".
In fact, Guangyou is quite ordinary-looking.
"Probably on par with Gu Moule," Guangyou thought to himself.
However, beauty is in the eye of the beholder...
It should be Pan An who came out.
A little narcissism is okay; it's better than being insecure.
"Just telling the truth."
There was no further discussion on this issue.
After saying that, Kōyū told Ai about what happened today.
He didn't go into too much detail, but he gave Ai a general overview:
“When you went to prepare dinner last week, Mingmei asked me about that person.”
"I said, let's arrange for the two of them to meet."
"Although Mingmei didn't say it, she actually still misses that person a lot."
"Even if that person took advantage of her."
After listening to Kousuke's explanation, Ai nodded and said:
"I see."
Things turned out pretty much as she expected.
She knew what place that person held in Mingmei's heart.
I also know that Akemi still can't let go of that person.
It was only a matter of time before the two met.
She felt sorry for Mingmei.
You like someone, but you get taken advantage of by that person.
He almost lost his life because of this person.
And that's what Kōyū thought too.
Therefore, even though Akemi did not want to persecute him, he still persecuted Shuichi Akai.
Although the persecution might have been too lenient, he felt it was alright.
Everything should be done in moderation.
Moderate persecution.
If it goes too far, it loses its original purpose of persecution.
He also told Ai about the persecution and what happened.
After he finished speaking, he pointed to the black robe placed to the side and said:
"I specially prepared this black robe a few days ago to conceal my identity."
"The effect is pretty good."
"Although he suspected me, he wasn't sure."
"Except for the sudden fire, everything else was in my plan."
"Originally, I wanted to use some props to put on a show in front of him."
"However, that fire disrupted my plans."
"The effect is acceptable."
"When he came out of the fire, his face was blackened and his clothes had several holes burned in them."
After nodding to indicate that she understood, Ai glanced towards the door and said:
"Hopefully, that won't happen again this time."
Upon hearing this, Guangyou also looked towards the door.
He said with certainty:
No, it won't.
"I will protect you two sisters."
“I also have a promise with Mingmei.”
He didn't think much of it and just blurted it out.
Noticing this detail, Ai turned her gaze back to Kousuke and asked:
"Agreement?"
"What agreement?"
Realizing his slip of the tongue, Kwang-woo calmly explained:
“Mingmei and I also told each other that we would protect you.”
"And last week when we were having dinner, I said that after this is over, I'll take you all back to China for a visit."
"This is it."
He naturally couldn't tell Ai about the agreement he made with Akemi.
You should know that what he and Akemi agreed on was his wedding with Ai.
This happened at least ten years ago.
It's too early to say that.
If Ai knew, this girl would probably blush and say to him again:
"Who cares?"
It seems pretty good?
Recalling Ai's adorable blushing face, Kōyū felt that letting Ai know about his promise with Akemi might not be such a bad idea.
But in the end, he still didn't tell Ai the contents of the agreement.
"I understand." Ai nodded, without any doubt.
She and Guangyou visited China once.
She had a good experience with that short trip.
I wonder if it was because Guangyou went with her that she made that short trip more appealing.
Speaking of that short trip, she suddenly remembered that Guangyou had specifically gone to find a little boy.
She asked Guangyou if he knew the little boy.
Guangyou's answer puzzled her greatly.
He simply replied, "Perhaps."
This answer is the same as no answer at all.
Just like before, she didn't ask any further questions.
However, her sixth sense told her that the little boy seemed to have a very special meaning for Guangyou.
She didn't know the specifics.
After explaining to Ai, Kousuke changed the subject:
"Alright, let the two of them chat for a while. It's been two years since they last saw each other."
"Hmm." Ai pointed to the laptop on the table and suggested, "Want to watch a movie?"
“Sure, I don’t have anything else to do right now.” Guangyou naturally nodded in agreement.
Seeing that Kōyū had agreed, Ai got up to get her laptop.
She stood in front of the laptop and clicked the mouse a few times.
From Guangyou's perspective, it's impossible to see what she's doing.
However, he didn't intend to ask.
I guess they're looking for the folder where the movies are stored.
After hiding the first draft of the love letter she wrote this morning, Ai hugged her notebook and sat down next to Kōyū.
