Conan: I don't do anything? If I really do it, you won't be happy.

Chapter 50 Youth and First Love

Xiao Ai had another dream.

I dreamed that the Junior Detective League was going to visit the Toudou Tower, so I pulled Terusuke, who looked helpless, and Conan was laughing beside them.

Just as everyone was heading to the observation deck on the top floor, a crow flew over the top of the tower. Following the crow's flight path, Ai took a look and happened to see Gin and Vodka wearing black clothes on the ground.

As if feeling her gaze, Gin turned around and looked at Ai on the high tower, revealing a cruel smile.

Then an explosion occurred on the Toudou Tower. The moment the flames of the explosion came, Huisuke held her in his arms.

……

"Boom boom boom!"

There was a rapid knock on the door.

There was a knock on the door outside Huisuke's room. He was still lying in bed, but Ai beside him was different.

Ai woke up from her dream when she heard a knock on the door. She found herself in Terusuke's arms, and looking at the surrounding layout, it was obvious that this was not her own room.

Looking at Huisuke in his pajamas, and then looking at himself wearing the clothes he wore when he went out yesterday, he couldn't help but cover his head, suspecting that he had entered a dream within a dream.

At this moment, Dr. Agasa's somewhat anxious voice came from outside Huisuke's room.

"Huisuke, something bad has happened, Ai is missing!"

After sending Mitsuhiko and others home, Dr. Agasa met with Conan and learned from Conan that Ai's behavior was very abnormal.

Before that, Ai had just suggested that she should leave here, and also agreed to Terusuke's sudden confession, so Conan suspected that Ai might be preparing to leave secretly and asked Professor Agasa to pay more attention to her.

But unfortunately, Dr. Agasa has not seen Ai since he returned home yesterday. After knocking on Ai's door and getting no response, he thought she was just a little tired and went to bed early.

After all, Dr. Agasa found that Ai's shoes were still at the door, so he did not suspect that Ai had left. He planned to have a good chat with Ai the next day.

It was not until he woke up in the morning that he went to Xiaoai's room to check and found that Xiaoai's bed was cold. It was obvious that she had not returned to her room to sleep last night.

Suddenly, Dr. Agasa remembered what Conan had told him before. Ai thought that she should not stay here and was afraid that it would implicate Terusuke and the others.

Thinking that Ai might have secretly left in the middle of the night, Dr. Agasa, who was a little worried, prepared to go to Terusuke's room and ask him to investigate where Ai had gone.

Listening to Dr. Agasa's voice, Ai looked at Terusuke, who was frowning and seemed about to wake up. She carefully moved his hand away from her, and then moved little by little.

Getting down from the bed, Xiao Ai looked at Terusuke lying on the bed and pinched herself hard.

As the pain in his arm spread, Xiao sighed, realizing that he was not dreaming, and then opened Huisuke's door.

"Kousuke, you..."

As Terusuke's door finally opened, the words that were about to come out of Dr. Agasa's mouth stopped abruptly, and he looked at Ai who walked out of Terusuke's room with a look of shock.

Looking at the shocked Dr. Agasa in front of her, Ai pretended to be calm and did not rush to explain to Dr. Agasa. Instead, she closed Terusuke's door and walked downstairs in a very calm manner.

Dr. Agasa's eyes followed Ai's movements, and only when Ai completely disappeared from his sight did he finally withdraw his gaze. He turned his head to look at Terusuke's door, as if he could see Terusuke inside through the door. At this moment, he finally remembered what Conan had said to him.

"Ai agreed to Huisuke's confession."

Dr. Agasa was thinking a lot at this moment. The development process from the Big Bang to the evolution of life seemed to appear in his mind, and he couldn't help but stand there in a daze.

After a while, Dr. Agasa shook his head and walked downstairs. While lamenting Terusuke's precocity, he couldn't help but think of his first love forty years ago.

While Professor Agasa was stunned, Ai, who had just come downstairs, had already made a few simple sandwiches.

Seeing that there was no figure of Huijie behind Dr. Agasa, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Then, looking at Dr. Agasa's thoughtful look, he asked, "Doctor, what are you thinking about?"

"Ah, Ai-chan," Dr. Agasa suddenly came back to his senses after hearing what Ai said. He touched his head awkwardly and said, "It's just that seeing the beauty of your youth reminded me of a beautiful memory I once had."

Hearing that Dr. Agasa didn't seem to care too much about her coming out of Huisuke's room, Xiao Ai felt a little relieved, and then continued to ask according to Dr. Agasa's words:

"Doctor, these are beautiful memories of your youth. Is this your first love?"

"Ah, this, this... isn't it!" When the doctor heard what Ai said, he waved his hands and explained in a panic.

Then he said with some regret: "That happened forty years ago. Now that I think about it, we were just a little short of becoming lovers!"

"But then she suddenly moved away one day."

After hearing what Dr. Agasa said, Xiao Ai said with some disappointment in her eyes: "I think she must be unable to say it!"

"Because goodbye is a sad word. If you don't leave any expectations, you won't be hurt more deeply!"

Looking at the somewhat lost Ai, Dr. Agasa suddenly regretted telling this matter in front of Ai.

After all, it was a regrettable youthful love, and a sudden departure, all of which are closely related to Ai's current situation.

A drop of sweat appeared on Dr. Agasa's head, and he said to Ai: "She didn't leave without saying goodbye. She gave me a postcard and asked me to meet her in a place full of memories ten years later. If I don't see her, I will wait for the next ten years."

"It's a pity that I really can't figure out where that place full of memories is."

"Really?" Ai looked at the somewhat nervous Dr. Agasa with a suspicious look, and then asked: "Doctor, could it be that you saw that I was a little disappointed, so you made up this to comfort me?"

Seeing that Ai seemed a little unconvinced, Dr. Agasa began to rummage through boxes and drawers, trying to find the postcard, saying, "I remember the postcard should be in this place..."

"Where did you put it?"

Seeing Dr. Agasa rummaging through the letters, Xiao Ai sighed and said, "It's okay, Doctor. Thank you for your comfort. But I'm fine. You don't have to be like this."

Hearing what Ai said, Dr. Agasa wiped the sweat from his head and said helplessly: "I'm telling the truth!"

"Okay, okay," Xiao Ai nodded, thinking that it would be good for Dr. Agasa to exercise a little, so she said to Dr. Agasa obediently: "Then I will go and call Huijie down to eat, and then we will look for it together after eating."
