Ever since the Girls' Day doll incident, Akemi has completely trusted Kōyū. Just for the sake of celebrating Girls' Day, which Ai has never experienced before, Kōyū has been running around for a whole day and night without closing his eyes.
What Mingmei didn't expect was that Guangyou could actually do this.
"Sacrificing one's life to save someone"—everyone can say that, but not everyone can actually do it.
Of course, this is not the standard for judging the relationship between two people, because not everyone has the ability to save people. If you lose your own life instead of saving the person, it is really not worth it.
Fortunately, Kousuke had the ability and successfully rescued Ai. Although he himself fell, he was lucky enough to be rescued.
In the end, both of them were safe and sound, which was a very happy ending.
This is what Akemi was thinking just now. All the words she wanted to say to Ai Haibara were reduced to a simple sentence in the end: "This is our luck, and it is also your luck."
If it weren't for Guangyou, she would probably be completely finished by now and wouldn't be living the life she has now. Although she has to be careful to avoid being exposed at all times, she is already very satisfied.
That's what people call her luck.
If it weren't for Mitsuyuki, Ai would probably still be immersed in the pain of her death, and wouldn't be the way she is now, let alone gain a genuine relationship.
Ai is much more cheerful now and has the emotions that a normal girl has. Although Ai only shows that side of herself to Mitsuyu, it is still a significant improvement.
This is what is known as Ai's good fortune.
"Um."
Xiao Ai nodded, responded with a simple nasal sound, held the cup in her hand, and took a sip of milk tea.
The two then fell into a brief silence.
Mingmei leaned back on the sofa watching TV, but her wandering eyes revealed that her attention wasn't really on the screen.
Xiao Ai remained seated on the sofa, holding a warm cup of milk tea in her hands, taking sips every now and then.
Time slowly passed, and the clouds on the horizon were blown into scales by the wind, the golden light gradually turning into a deep red like blood.
The sunlight filtering through the gaps in the curtains shone on their faces, creating an exceptionally beautiful scene.
That's all for today's program. See you next time!
The music ending the television program startled the two from their thoughts.
Mingmei glanced at the wall clock and said, "It's almost five o'clock, I'll go cook."
Before she could even get up, Ai reached out and stopped her: "Let me do it tonight."
"Then be careful when you cook."
Akemi remembered what she had promised Ai, so she gave her a word of advice and then casually pulled a book from the bookshelf next to her and started reading.
Ai placed the already empty cup on the coffee table, got up and headed towards the kitchen. She had only gone halfway when she remembered something and turned back to ask, "Sister, is there any food at home?"
Akemi looked up at Ai and smiled, "They're all in the fridge, already washed, you can use them directly."
"good."
...
The sound of cleavers hitting the cutting board could be heard constantly coming from the kitchen of Mingmei Apartment.
Ai chops vegetables very slowly because she's afraid of cutting herself, and then Kyou will scold her for not being careful.
"Try not to worry him."
With this in mind, she carefully prepared the ingredients needed for tonight's dinner.
Tonight is not only a dinner gathering between sisters, but also a practice session.
...
The sky darkens quickly at this time of year; the sunset seems to be just a fleeting moment, and the once deep red sky is now completely dark.
The dazzling, colorful neon lights in the city overshadowed the faint glow of the stars, and the taillights of cars on the ground formed ribbons of light that weaved through the city's various intersections.
Amidst the myriad lights of the city, Mingmei sat cross-legged on the sofa in her apartment, carefully flipping through a book in her hands.
"Sister, dinner's ready."
The kitchen door opened, and instantly the entire apartment was filled with the rich aroma of food.
Ai carried the dishes out of the kitchen, greeting Akemi as she placed them on the table.
"I'll help you."
Akemi put the book back on the shelf, smiled, stood up from the sofa, and went into the kitchen to help Ai bring out the dishes.
By the time the two finished their work and sat down at the dining table to prepare dinner, it was already past six in the evening.
"Shiho, it seems your cooking skills have improved a lot."
Akemi exclaimed after taking only a small bite of her food, "She's made great progress."
"That's good."
This compliment calmed Xiao Ai's anxious heart a little.
"But you made all Chinese dishes today, did you learn them specifically for Guangyou?"
Akemi could see through Ai's little scheme; after all, all the dishes on the table were Chinese cuisine, so it was hard not to notice.
If it weren't for Guangyou, she really wouldn't believe that her younger sister, who had lived in the United States for many years, would go and learn such difficult Chinese cuisine.
"Yes, it is indeed because of him."
Ai Haibara didn't hide anything and frankly admitted that she had specially learned Chinese cuisine for Kōyū, saying, "He needs to nourish his body recently, so I wanted to learn to make some mild and nourishing dishes."
"fine."
Mingmei was somewhat envious of their current relationship, since she didn't even know where the one she longed for was right now.
"He hasn't had my cooking for years."
As she ate these dishes imbued with emotion, Akemi suddenly felt a pang of sadness.
Back then, she would learn some dishes for him and then cook them for him as if to show off. Seeing the barely perceptible smile on his face made her very happy.
