As Guangyou passed a post office, he saw two groups of people huddled together behind a car not far away, peeking out at the road ahead.
Upon closer inspection, Kōyū realized that the people standing by the roadside were clearly Miwako and Takagi.
He tossed the empty can into the trash can, walked up behind Conan, and asked softly, "What's the situation now?"
Conan glanced back, sniffed, and looked at Kōyū with a puzzled expression: "Have you been drinking?"
Guangyou was lucid, but there was a faint smell of alcohol around him: "I guess this will be the only time. I'll have to stay at your place for the night later."
Conan nodded in agreement: "Yeah, Ran would probably kill you if you went back now."
Guangyou asked again, "What's the situation now?"
Conan shrugged: "Who knows? We saw Officer Sato and Officer Takagi like this as soon as we came out. Officer Miyamoto told us to hide behind the car and watch the show."
Beside Conan were Ayumi and a few others, as well as Yumi who was standing at the front. They were intently observing Takagi and Miwako's progress and did not notice Mitsuyu's arrival.
In the distance, Takagi, for the first time, took Miwako's hand and asked, "Officer Sato, how about you? Is your hand alright?"
Miwako glanced at her bandaged hand and said, "Much better. It only hurts a little bit now, it's alright..."
Their eyes met, and it seemed as if fate had made way for them. Most of the passersby had disappeared, leaving only a group of people peeking from behind the car.
When two people who have feelings for each other have physical contact and look into each other's eyes, as long as the other person isn't unattractive, the atmosphere will always become somewhat romantic.
The hand that Takagi was holding might have been the beginning of the atmosphere between the two.
For a moment, they fell silent.

Oops, sorry, I forgot there's a little bit of a slow-burn plot, the sweet moments are yet to come (am I going to get beaten up?).
Damn, what kind of adjective is that...? Damn, although that's what I meant, the other meaning is just too...unpleasant.
That's the same adjective that Yaowan used to describe laughing. Now that I've gone back and looked at it, it's just so stupid.
Although that's not what I meant at the time...
