Everyone has different reasons for going to the movies, and because of this, each movie is given different meanings by different people, and naturally, it will have different effects.
Just like some people go on dates with their partners, the purpose of this movie is to enhance their relationship.
If the movie successfully enhances the relationship between the two, then it has served its purpose.
For some people, the purpose of watching this movie is to relieve stress, either because they are under a lot of pressure or have nothing to do.
If a movie can make people happy and laugh out loud, then it has served its purpose.
But for Ai Haibara, this movie has a more special meaning.
She looked ahead, a beautiful smile curving her lips, and thought to herself, "For me, the purpose of this movie is to let me see the you who was foolish for me."
As soon as she finished speaking, Ai realized there seemed to be something wrong with her statement: "It's less about the movie and more about the explosion."
However, after thinking about it carefully, Ai realized that she wasn't wrong before: "If it weren't for that movie, I wouldn't have been involved in the explosion, and I wouldn't have seen that 'idiot'."
If we hadn't watched this movie, things might have turned out the way they are now, but who knows how much time that would have taken?
"By the way, I have a question for you," Ai asked Kōyū without turning her head. "When you took me to see this movie, there was an explosion. At that time, you..."
Before she could finish speaking, Guangyou seemed to instantly understand her meaning and said, "Are you trying to ask why I went to save you like a madman back then?"
Upon hearing this, Ai stopped and turned to look at Kousuke, nodding: "At the time, I did have some questions..."
“What’s there to not understand?” Guangyou pulled her along, walking slowly. “Because you are very special to me… extremely special.”
"Special?" Ai glanced at Kousuke and asked, "I remember we hadn't known each other for very long back then, so why am I special?"
This is a difficult question to answer. Guangyou has stated the truth before, but it was too bizarre for anyone to believe.
Especially Ai Haibara; the expression on her little face when Kōyū confessed to her was particularly funny.
You could tell from Ai's expression that she didn't quite believe what he said, which Kouyu could understand. After all, even he, as the person involved, took a while to accept it.
You can also tell that Ai is a little angry, probably because she thinks he doesn't want to tell her the truth, so he just made up a science fiction story to fool her.
He has no evidence to prove that what he said is true. Unless Ai experiences it herself, his words are not very convincing.
So let this secret remain buried in his heart for now; he can bring it out later to make up a science fiction story or write a light novel.
That would be interesting if it could be adapted into an animation later.
The otherworldly genre... should be popular.
Returning to the main topic, Kōyū carefully considered his words before answering Ai's question. It wasn't complicated; it was just a very simple, clichéd rhetorical question: "Do you believe in love at first sight?"
“I have reservations about this issue,” Ai replied, following Kousuke and walking alongside him. “After all, I haven’t encountered anything like this before, but I don’t deny the claim.”
Hearing this, Guangyou asked curiously, "By the way, what did you feel about me back then?"
Ai turned to look at Kousuke and asked, "Do you really want to hear it?"
"Yeah." Kōyū nodded, then remembered their earlier conversation and felt a little scared. "Do I have to guess this too?"
"I won't let you guess, I'll just tell you directly," Ai said truthfully. "Back then, I thought you were a weirdo with pretty good cooking skills."
"A weirdo?" Guangyou thought back to his past self and felt that apart from being a bit enthusiastic, there was nothing wrong with him.
Is it because I'm too enthusiastic?
Thinking about it, that makes sense. Ai, who is wary of outsiders, is not easy to approach, so it's understandable that she wouldn't adapt to his enthusiasm.
If it weren't for his own special circumstances and the fact that he saved Akemi, Ai would probably still be an unmelted iceberg.
“Yes, that’s what I thought at first: a strange person with good cooking skills and a mysterious background.” Ai continued, “But after I learned that you were the one who saved my sister, my opinion of you changed.”
Upon hearing this, Kwang-woo snapped back to reality, raising an eyebrow: "Changed opinion?"
"Yes, things have definitely improved." Ai glanced at Kousuke and said, "I just think you're a good person."
These words silenced Guangyou instantly. So he had been given a "friend zone" card?
Seeing Guangyou's somewhat dejected look, Xiao Ai chuckled: "I've answered your question. So, what about you? Was it really because of love at first sight?"
Guangyou had already considered the answer to this question, so he nodded without hesitation: "Yes, the moment I saw you for the first time, I felt that you were worth protecting."
"These intuitive options are prone to errors."
Upon hearing Guangyou's answer, a hint of joy flashed in Ai's eyes, but she remained outwardly calm as she asked, "Didn't you ever consider that you might have misjudged someone?"
"I really hadn't thought about it."
Guangyou pointed to his head with his other finger, "At that time, I only had one thought in my mind, which was 'Don't miss it, you'll regret it for the rest of your life if you miss it,' and as it turns out, I was right and made a huge profit."
"Do you really think so?" Ai asked.
Guangyou nodded: "Yes, it's like buying a lottery ticket. I just wanted to make some money to buy ramen, but who would have thought I would win the jackpot."
"So you initially considered ramen and me to be on the same level." Ai smiled slyly, but the smile vanished in an instant.
"It's just a metaphor."
Kōyū knew that this girl was doing it on purpose, and this wasn't the first time, so he squeezed Ai's hand and said, "You're very important to me, don't overthink it, be good."
"Alright," Ai smiled. "After all, you're treating today, so I'll give you face."
"Alright, alright, thank you for giving me this face," Guangyou said with a smile. "Let's go, I'll take you home."
"Hmm." After a slight hesitation, Ai took Kouyu's hand and leaned most of her body against him. "We can walk slowly, there's still plenty of time, no rush."
Feeling the weight coming from half of his body, Guangyou's smile widened: "Okay, let's walk slowly then. I'll accompany you even if it takes until tomorrow morning."
Hearing this, Ai felt a warmth in her heart. Although she was happy, she didn't show it: "Forget it, that's too long. I want to go back and rest."
“It’s not long at all.” Guangyou recalled the sweet words he used to read online and said, “There are even longer ones, like, as long as you’re willing, I’ll accompany you to the end of time.”
