Stay away from Conan.

"Of course, it may be a bit inaccurate to say that it is recently, it should be earlier..."

In this way, Mitsuhiko did not call him "Haiyuan" as usual, but carefully mentioned the name of "Xiao Ai". Mitsuhiko seemed to be very confused and said:
"Probably after I first saw the mature and handsome side of Xiao Ai, I was attracted to her at some point... I have always dreamed of becoming such a person, but it seems that among us, except Except for Conan, no one can talk to Xiao Ai..."

As he said that, Mitsuhiko looked at Xiaolan with some self-blame, with a very confused expression, and asked Xiaolan:

"I like two people at the same time, am I a bad boy? Sister Xiaolan, tell me!"

As if he wanted to get advice from Xiaolan, a senior, Mitsuhiko must have made a lot of determination to explain in detail to Xiaolan.

In this regard, Xiaolan was stunned by Mitsuhiko's words at first. She didn't expect that this child's ignorant thoughts were so complicated, but seeing Mitsuhiko in front of her having the courage to explain his thoughts to her, Xiaolan thought After thinking about it, he immediately showed a gentle smile and said mainly in an encouraging tone:

"It won't be bad if you are like this. It's a good thing to like someone. I think you should cherish this feeling!"

"That……"

Hearing this, Mitsuhiko seemed to feel a little happy, and then nervously wanted to ask himself what to do next.

But Xiaolan immediately went on to suggest:
"But it's better for you to be good friends now, right? No matter it's Ayumi or Xiao Ai, it's certainly the same for Conan or Genta."

So, perhaps recalling how she got along with Kudo Shinichi, Xiaolan tried to make such a suggestion.

Listening to Xiaolan's answer, Mitsuhiko thought about it in confusion for a while, then a smile appeared on his face, and he replied to Xiaolan calmly:

"I understand!"

In this way, seeing Mitsuhiko seems to be suddenly enlightened, Xiaolan can't help showing a gratified smile...

……

"Sister Xiaolan, I like Conan so much...but Conan has someone he likes."

After parting ways with Mitsuhiko, Ayumi also had something to discuss with Xiaolan alone when visiting the Twin Towers skyscraper yesterday, so in the afternoon, Ayumi and Xiaolan met in a dessert shop. After ordering some desserts and sitting on the table in the store, Ayumi looked a little dignified, and said this sentence that made Xiaolan feel confused again——

"what?"

Unexpectedly, not only Mitsuhiko, but also Ayumi would come to him because of "emotional problems." This made Xiaolan a little confused and helpless, but then she thought about what Mitsuhiko mentioned just now, "Except for Conan, everyone else is looking for him." I can't chat with Xiao Ai." After this point, Xiaolan couldn't help asking about Ayumi's remarks:
"Is it possible that you are referring to Xiao Ai? It seems that Conan and Xiao Ai really get along well..."

After briefly recalling the usual situations where Conan and Xiao Ai appeared together, Xiao Lan felt that Mitsuhiko's statement made some sense.

However, Ayumi shook her head and responded:

"No...Although Haibara-san and Conan do often talk together about things we don't understand, but compared to Conan, Haibara-san obviously cares more about Brother Akechi..."

"Ugh?"

Blinking, Xiaolan was a little stunned when she heard Ayumi's statement.

And what Ayumi said next directly shocked Xiaolan:

"As for Conan... he likes Sister Xiaolan!"

When it came to the last title "Sister Xiaolan", Ayumi raised her head with great determination, looked at Xiaolan seriously and said.

"Oh no……"

In response, after hearing this statement, Xiaolan smiled helplessly, feeling that it was a joke, so she replied.

However, Ayumi went on to say with sincerity and certainty:

"Conan must have fallen in love with sister Xiaolan! So, I hope sister Xiaolan can tell him that you have a new brother now, please give up quickly!"

"This one……"

Seeing Ayumi's aggressive look at the end, Xiaolan didn't know how to react.

"Otherwise, Conan would be so pitiful..." As she spoke, Ayumi lowered her head, as if imagining Conan's position, and couldn't help but sympathize with Conan.

"But, you're not sure that Conan really likes me, are you?"

Trying her best to keep smiling, Xiaolan could only say this.

"I am very sure!"

In response to this, Ayumi immediately raised her head with determination and said to Xiaolan in a very confident tone.

And it seems that because of Ayumi's momentum, Xiaolan felt that the credibility of what the child just said suddenly became higher, but after thinking about it, she felt that this was too outrageous, so she curiously asked:
"Oh? How do you say it?"

"A woman's intuition!"

Suddenly, these words came out of Ayumi's mouth, and Xiaolan was stunned -

"Yes... so..."

At this moment, I didn't know how to reply at all. Looking at Ayumi's determined look, the conversation ended with Ayumi asking Xiaolan again to make it clear to Conan and let Conan give up.

Regarding this, Xiaolan only felt a little headache on the way back to the Mori Detective Agency from the dessert shop——

I thought that what the two children wanted to do with me yesterday turned out to be all about the children's feelings.

Among them, Mitsuhiko is okay, but Ayumi...

"Conan, do you like me?"

Thinking back to Ayumi's words so firmly, Xiaolan silently recalled what happened after she met Conan, as if...

It feels, it seems, indeed...

Shaking her head violently, Xiaolan's thoughts were a little confused. She didn't know what to do with her own thoughts for a while.

So, after thinking about it, Xiaolan still took out her phone——

This phone was given to me by Xinyi on White Valentine's Day. Although I didn't meet with Xinyi that day, there was Xinyi's mailbox in this phone. Therefore, I can be regarded as having It's possible to contact Shinichi.

So, after thinking about today's events, Xiaolan sent a message to Xinyi's email, hoping that if possible, she would like to discuss something with Xinyi in detail.

And soon, in the evening, Shinichi called back——

"Ah for what?"

On the other end of the phone, Xinyi listened to Xiaolan's words and seemed not to understand the situation. Xinyi's confused voice came from the phone.

In this regard, Xiaolan also said helplessly and confusedly:

"I don't know what to say. Conan seems to have fallen in love with me."

"Ah? What nonsense are you talking about! I don't like you! Idiot!"

A little anxious, Shinichi on the other end of the phone immediately retorted.

"Strange……"

In this way, Xiaolan felt a little strange about Shinichi's reaction. It seemed like Conan's reaction after she directly asked Conan if he liked me. For this reason, Xiaolan couldn't help but feel a little... He said doubtfully:
"Xinyi, how did you know?"

——How come you seem to be so sure about Conan even though you are not by your side all the time?
Thinking like this, Xiaolan felt a little depressed, feeling as if Shinichi knew everything. This inevitably reminded her of the judgment he made when Hattori Heiji first came to the detective agency -

"Kudo must be watching you from somewhere!" (End of this chapter)
