Gin doesn't want to work hard

Sonoko Suzuki quickly shook her head.

How could that be? They've only just met.

Sonoko Suzuki no longer believes in love at first sight.

Ran Mouri, who was standing nearby, also noticed something was amiss.

Although Makoto Kyogoku said "you all," his gaze remained fixed on Sonoko Suzuki the entire time.

Combined with Sonoko's earlier complaint that "Kyogoku Makoto has been watching them all along."

Perhaps, at that time, Makoto Kyogoku was only looking at the garden.

Could it be that?

if it is like this.

That makes sense now.

Ran Mouri felt like she had discovered something.

However, Kyogoku was too embarrassed to say it directly at that moment.

Sonoko Suzuki dared not think about it further.

If no one lends them a hand.

The two of them are probably going to miss each other like this.

Ran Mouri thought about it carefully.

Although I didn't have much contact with Makoto Kyogoku.

But judging from his willingness to follow Sonoko in the shadows and protect her.

Makoto Kyogoku's feelings for Sonoko are quite genuine.

He's at least much better than those so-called boyfriends from other girls' circles.

Ran Mouri hesitated for a moment, then decided to try to help push the two of them closer.

"Sonoko, I want to buy a bottle of water. Could you please wait here for Kurosawa-nii to come out?"

Upon hearing this, Sonoko Suzuki subconsciously responded.

Seeing this, Ran Mouri pulled Conan up.

"Let's go, Conan."

"Hey, is Conan coming too...?"

Seeing this, Sonoko Suzuki felt a little uneasy.

In that case, wouldn't it just be her and Makoto Kyogoku left?

Ran Mouri smiled apologetically.

"Sorry, Sonoko, please wait a moment."

We'll be back soon!

With that, Ran Mouri pulled Conan away.

Unable to stop her, Sonoko Suzuki could only sit back down in her chair.

Makoto Kyogoku sat two seats away from her.

Originally, Ran Mouri and Conan were sandwiched between the two.

She hadn't felt anything yet.

But now that the two have left, she feels as if a direct gaze is falling on her.

Sonoko Suzuki couldn't help but steal a glance at him.

Unsurprisingly, Kyogoku Makoto was looking at her.

And with that one glance, their eyes met.

Almost simultaneously, both of their faces turned slightly red.

Chapter 157 Accident

But soon, Sonoko Suzuki looked away.

She covered her slightly flushed face, secretly cursing herself for her lack of resolve.

what the hell!

They only made eye contact, why is she blushing!

I had already thought it through.

I no longer believe in love at first sight.

She met Makoto Kyogoku in the last couple of days.

She also knew absolutely nothing about Makoto Kyogoku.

It would be too hasty to say you like someone now!

It was probably just an illusion after all.

As Sonoko Suzuki thought this, she slowly calmed her wildly beating heart.

Seeing this, Makoto Kyogoku, who was standing to the side, was somewhat discouraged.

He really likes Sonoko.

Ever since I saw her cheering for her friends at the karate competition last time.

Kyogoku Makoto unconsciously fell in love with her.

I thought this encounter was destined by fate.

He had planned it all out; he was determined to confess his feelings before Sonoko and the others' trip ended.

But this kind of thing happened unexpectedly.

Makoto Kyogoku sighed.

But he certainly wouldn't be willing to give up like that.

In any case, it's fine even if Sonoko rejects her in the end.

He must express his feelings!

Makoto Kyogoku took a deep breath.

Recalling the love confessions he found online, he was preparing to confess his feelings to Sonoko.

The garden not far away suddenly stood up.

She looked in the direction of the emergency room entrance with slight surprise.

Kyogoku Makoto followed her gaze.

They discovered that it was Masahiko Michiwaki being escorted here by two policemen.

"How could he be here?"

Having witnessed him injure someone with a knife, Sonoko Suzuki couldn't help but feel a little nervous.

Makoto Kyogoku immediately stepped forward and stood in front of her.

"Do not be afraid."

"I will protect you."

As Sonoko Suzuki watched his retreating figure, her heart began to pound uncontrollably once again.

One of the police officers who was escorting Michiwaki Masahiko was Terahaya Shoji.

At this moment, he also noticed Makoto Kyogoku and Sonoko standing to the side.

Seeing their somewhat wary expressions, Terahashi Shoji knew it was because of Michiwaki Masahiko.

He explained immediately.

"Don't worry, we will take good care of him."

"I brought him here this time just to check if he has any internal injuries."

After all, the way Michiwaki Masahiko looked when he was unconscious was quite intimidating.

However, after they put him in the police car, Masahiko Michiwaki woke up.

Now, he looks just like a normal person, with no signs of injury whatsoever.

But just to be on the safe side, Terahina Seiji decided to take him to the hospital for a check-up.

However, at that time, there was only one doctor on duty in the emergency room.

Situations like those involving Masahiko Michiwaki, which don't seem urgent.

He can only go in after Kurosawa comes out.

The two policemen then escorted Masahiko Michiwaki to wait outside the clinic.

After hearing Terahashi Shoji's explanation, Suzuki Sonoko finally felt relieved.

That's true. With the police present, even if Masahiko Michiwaki wanted to do something, he couldn't, right?

Even with that thought in mind, Sonoko Suzuki still took two steps to the side and sat in the seat furthest away from Masahiko Michiwaki.

Makoto Kyogoku followed.

This time, he sat directly next to the garden.

Sonoko Suzuki glanced at Makoto Kyogoku subconsciously.

Seeing him staring at Michiwaki Masahiko with a serious expression, Suzuki Sonoko remembered his previous promise to protect her.

Although Kyogoku doesn't say much, his actions perfectly match what he says.

His behavior seems strangely charming...
