Looking at the tiny Chaldea base in front of her, Fujimaru Ritsuka was speechless.
Although it's a little subtle, in a sense, it really does feel like coming home.
However, at this moment, Fujimaru Ritsuka suddenly realized that for Mash, who grew up in Chaldea, Chaldea was indeed the only place that came to mind when it came to "home".
"Isn't this fine too?"
Little Leonardo da Vinci chuckled and chimed in:
"Since you can't go back for the time being, Master, it's not bad to just treat this place as Chaldea."
"...Well, that's true."
Upon hearing this, Fujimaru Ritsuka looked at the somewhat uneasy Mash again, stepped forward, gave her a big hug, and smiled:
"I really enjoyed this surprise, thank you, Mashu!"
"babble?!"
Mashu was caught off guard and suddenly found herself in Fujimaru Ritsuka's arms. She was momentarily stunned, but before she could fully appreciate it, Fujimaru Ritsuka quickly let go, leaving her feeling a little disappointed.
However, upon hearing Fujimaru Ritsuka's words and seeing the smile on her face, Mashu also smiled sincerely.
"It's alright, as long as you like it, senior."
Watching the interaction between Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mashu, Leonardo da Vinci and Moriarty both showed maternal smiles.
Meanwhile, Ai Haibara stood to the side, arms crossed, watching the reactions of both sides thoughtfully.
Next, led by Mashu, Fujimaru Ritsuka toured the familiar yet unfamiliar miniature Chaldea, and after becoming thoroughly familiar with the environment, she quickly chose a bedroom to stay in.
The bedroom she chose was right next to Mashu's bedroom.
As for whether to keep the small house for future use or sell it at a low price, there's no rush to decide what to do with it for now.
……
...
"It's so comfortable at home."
Fujimaru Ritsuka sighed.
Lying on the soft sofa, I switched the TV to an anime channel, and the show on that day was none other than the famous Water Pirate King.
It's pretty good; even if you only glance at it occasionally, it doesn't affect the continuity of the plot at all.
She just got back today, so a big welcome-back meal is a must. Considering it's been raining outside and they rarely go out, they decided to cook at home.
And the head chefs, of course, are Mash and Ai Haibara.
She originally wanted to help in the kitchen, but the two refused, telling her to rest properly and then sending her to the living room to play by herself.
"Ai, I'll leave these to you."
"No problem. Is there anything else I can help you with?"
"Not needed for now..."
……
"Speaking of which, Professor,"
Fujimaru Ritsuka watched the two busy yet perfectly coordinated figures in the kitchen and curiously asked Moriarty beside her:
"When did Mashu and Ai become so close?"
She remembered that before she was "transferred," their relationship was only so-so, but now it seemed like they were sisters.
Moriarty looked up from the book in his hands and smiled:
"It's probably because they've been handling all the firm's cases together lately."
"A commission from the firm?"
Fujimaru Ritsuka was taken aback for a moment upon hearing this. "What request?"
"Of course, it's a request related to mysterious phenomena."
Moriarty laughed:
"You should remember the traces of the curse that once appeared on this villa."
"what."
Upon Moriarty's mention, Fujimaru Ritsuka immediately recalled that the villa had been called the Haunted Villa, and that they had indeed discovered slight traces of a curse during their house viewing.
Seeing this, Moriarty continued:
"In fact, since then, things like haunted houses, curses, and vengeful spirits have gradually increased, and the mystery agency has gradually started to receive some requests for exorcism."
"And Mashu and Ai took the initiative to take on this task."
"That's it."
Fujimaru Ritsuka unconsciously rubbed her chin, lost in thought.
Although Mashu and Ai were somewhat concerned about the details of their work, she was more interested in the requests: haunted houses, curses, vengeful spirits... things that sounded like horror movie stuff.
But the art style isn't quite right, is it? This is the world of Detective Conan!
However, it somehow fits together quite well; murder, curses, vengeful spirits... it's a complete package.
Furthermore, judging from the crime rate in the Detective Conan world, if this pace continues, it probably won't be long before the place is teeming with vengeful spirits. And if it goes any further—
Jujutsu Kaisen: Detective Conan version?
It's somewhat scary.
what--
Just imagining such a terrifying scene sent a chill down Fujimaru Ritsuka's spine.
Then she asked:
Is this unusual situation related to the current continuous rainfall?
Moriarty shook his head and said:
"I don't think so, since this situation had already occurred before the rain."
Fujimaru Ritsuka nodded, then fell into deep thought again.
Vengeful spirits, torrential rain, and the previously appeared corpse demons, shadow disease... It feels like the world of Conan is getting stranger and stranger. Is it really okay for things to continue like this?
Just then, a sigh came from beside me—
"I'm telling you, since we're resting, let's not think about those troublesome problems for now, shall we?"
"Xiao Ai?"
Fujimaru Ritsuka looked up and saw Ai Haibara looking at her with a helpless expression, looking worried. Coupled with the small apron she was wearing, she looked like a housekeeper.
but--
"so cute!"
"ah?!"
Ai Haibara's mature demeanor completely captivated Fujimaru Ritsuka. Amidst Ai Haibara's exclamation, Fujimaru Ritsuka lifted her up and held her in his arms, nuzzling her hair like a cat.
"Let me go! Are you a child?!"
Ai Haibara struggled, her face slightly flushed, but the strength of her struggle was not as resolute as her shouts.
After Fujimaru Ritsuka finished sucking and put her down, her face was flushed. She glared at Fujimaru Ritsuka with annoyance and said:
"It's time to prepare dinner."

Chapter 318 Fujimaru Ritsuka: Became a Mother Right After Returning Home?
Cheers! ×n
Mashu and Ai Haibara's culinary skills are beyond question; every dish is a feast for the eyes, nose, and palate, and the atmosphere is always joyful.
After dinner, Fujimaru Ritsuka took Haibara Ai back to the professor's house. Her current villa is only two streets away from the professor's house, which is very close and makes it more convenient to visit each other.
"Ritsuka, you're back."
"Yes, I just got back today."
Upon seeing Fujimaru Ritsuka again, Professor Agasa greeted her with a smile. Fujimaru Ritsuka smiled and nodded in response, then took out a bag and said:
"These are some local snacks I brought back from my business trip. Please accept them."
"Oh, thank you, then I won't be polite."
Professor Agasa accepted the gift with delight, then casually asked:
Is the place you're traveling to for work very far away?
Fujimaru Ritsuka smiled upon hearing this:
"It is indeed quite far."
In another world.
Ai Haibara thought to herself.
After Fujimaru Ritsuka left, Professor Agasa and Ai Haibara returned to the house. Ai Haibara couldn't wait to go into the laboratory and put away the gift that Fujimaru Ritsuka had given her.
"Hehehe..."
Seeing Ai Haibara's unusually cheerful expression, like that of a real child, Professor Agasa smiled and shook his head, then opened the gift that Fujimaru Ritsuka had given him.
Inside were some pastries I'd never seen before, but they all looked pretty good.
Seeing Ai Haibara come out, he greeted her with a smile:
"Ai, would you like to try some?"
"Ah."
Although they had just finished eating, Ai Haibara nodded in agreement. The two of them picked up a piece of pastry and put it in their mouths. The next moment, Professor Agasa's eyes lit up.
