When faced with all sorts of questions from Akemi Miyano, Ai Haibara not only failed to provide her identity and address, but also made up a jumbled list of names for all her distant relatives.

Without any prior preparation, Ai Haibara, under questioning from Akemi Miyano, managed to create a completely new family tree for her family.

Fortunately, Akemi Miyano did not suspect that a little girl would lie about this, and therefore did not notice the loopholes in Ai Haibara's words.

As Yuu Aragaki, who had just taken the drinks out of the refrigerator, handed them to the two women, he noticed Ai Haibara struggling to cope with her older sister's various questions, and couldn't help but chuckle to himself.

It's really rare to see Ai Haibara looking so disheveled!

next moment.

As soon as Aragaki Yusai sat down, Miyano Akemi, who was chatting happily with Haibara Ai, looked at him with a smile and said, "Aragaki-kun, Ai and I are having a great time chatting, so I'll leave lunch to you!"

"Forehead……"

Although Aragaki Yu had originally planned to make lunch himself, he suddenly had a strange feeling when he heard Miyano Akemi say that.

Am I...?

Did I disturb them?

As Aragaki Yu reluctantly got up, it was as if a piece of music suddenly began to play in his ears—

I should be under the car, not...

Watching Aragaki Yu's retreating figure as he walked into the kitchen, Miyano Akemi smiled and explained to Haibara Ai, "Don't let his appearance fool you, his cooking skills are really good! I guarantee he'll give you a pleasant surprise."

Chapter 339 Ai Haibara's Decision

Ai Haibara's knowledge of Yu Aragaki's cooking skills probably only includes the bowl of porridge she ate after he rescued her and brought her home.

And it comes from the descriptions of Conan, Ran, and Sonoko, who can't keep any secrets to herself.

Although Ai Haibara has always had some expectations for Yu Aragaki's cooking ever since then, she actually wants to eat the food made by her older sister now.

However, since her sister had said so, she naturally couldn't refuse.

Otherwise, her behavior would seem too deliberate.

This will definitely arouse Miyano Akemi's suspicion.

Ai Haibara always knew that her older sister was actually a very thoughtful person.

She probably has some doubts about her appearance now.

If Ai Haibara were to suggest that she wanted to eat a meal cooked by Akemi Miyano, she would immediately realize that she was probably Akemi Miyano's younger sister, Shiho Miyano.

……

However, when she saw her sister's smiling face and Aragaki Yu's busy figure in the kitchen, she was surprised.

Compared to the question of why her sister was unharmed, an even bigger question lingered in her mind.

What exactly is the relationship between my own sister and this guy, Yuu Aragaki?

Why was his sister in his house?

Is it possible...

Could they be a couple?!

For some reason, Ai Haibara suddenly felt flustered when she thought about these things.

……

Several hours later...

Despite her reluctance, Ai Haibara declined the invitation to stay for dinner and chose to return home.

After all, Professor Agasa had eaten instant noodles again. If he didn't go back and cook for him, he would be letting down the professor who had taken him in and cared for him.

Moreover, from the afternoon's conversation, Ai Haibara also learned that her older sister, Akemi Miyano, or rather, she should now be called Masami Hirota, was currently working at Yuu Aragaki's Yin-Yang House.

Although she didn't know what was going on, there was one thing she was very clear about: as long as she went to Aragaki Yu's house from time to time, she would naturally be able to meet her sister frequently.

Of course, Ai Haibara did not tell Akemi Miyano her true identity until she left.

After all, she still couldn't be sure whether her sister's appearance with Aragaki Yu was a genuine escape from the organization's clutches or some kind of arrangement by the organization.

Ai Haibara did not want her sister's safety to be implicated because of her.

If the guys in the organization discover my whereabouts, they definitely won't let my sister go!

Perhaps, perhaps the organization has arranged for someone to monitor her sister, waiting for her to walk right into their trap.

and……

Just as she was leaving Aragaki Yu's house, Ai Haibara couldn't help but turn back for one last look at Aragaki Yu, who had seen her off.

This guy……

What exactly is its relationship with the organization?

Why would his sister appear in his life under an assumed name?

Could it be that the guys in the organization have some ulterior motive towards him?!

On the way back to the doctor's house, Ai Haibara's brows were furrowed the whole time, her mind troubled by all the mysteries.

Of course, she did not suspect that Aragaki Yu was an accomplice in the organization.

Firstly, if he were a member of the organization, after finding me dressed in adult clothes on that rainy night, he would probably suspect me and send me to the organization.

Secondly, he didn't smell anything related to the organization on Aragaki Yu.

Most importantly, Ai Haibara is willing to believe in Yuu Aragaki from the bottom of her heart.

……

When they arrived at Professor Agasa's house, Ai Haibara couldn't help but squeeze the phone in her pocket, and a smile finally appeared on her face.

Anyway, I've finally saved my sister's new phone number.

I no longer have to hide under the covers and silently shed tears in the dead of night.

I'm finally not alone anymore...

Of course, when she opened the door and stepped into Professor Agasa's house, Ai Haibara immediately composed herself.

She didn't intend to tell Professor Agasa and Shinichi Kudo about her older sister, Akemi Miyano.

It wasn't that she didn't trust them, but Ai Haibara knew very well that once Conan found out about this...

Given Conan's personality, he's bound to bring some danger to his sister and Yuu Aragaki.

This is exactly the kind of situation that Ai Haibara least wants to see happen.

After all, it had been a long time since he had seen his sister again!

Even though she can only interact with her sister as "Ai Haibara" now, Ai Haibara feels happy from the bottom of her heart.

Therefore, in this matter, Ai Haibara could only silently apologize to Shinichi Kudo in her heart.

……

"Doctor, I'm back!"

When Ai Haibara walked into the living room, she couldn't help but frown when she saw the various cup noodles and empty beverage cans scattered on the dining table.

Moreover, she noticed that Dr. Agasa had stuffed the body into the bottom of the trash can in an attempt to destroy the evidence, but unfortunately, a corner of the packaging was revealed—it was a takeout package from a fried chicken shop.

Ai Haibara couldn't help but sigh softly, "As expected, when Professor Agasa is alone, all he does is eat junk food!"

"Ah...ah!? Ha~Yawn~ Ai, you're finally back?"

Dr. Agasa, who had fallen asleep on the sofa, blinked his eyes groggily and responded to Ai Haibara, who was changing into slippers in the entryway.

"Doctor, you haven't eaten properly again, have you? I specifically reminded you in the text message!" Ai Haibara walked to the table, cleaning up the trash on it as she coldly addressed Professor Agasa.

"Hahaha, Ai, how...how could that be!" Professor Agasa's expression changed, and he sat up abruptly from the sofa, awkwardly touching his bald head as he tried to explain.

"Humph~"

However, when he saw Ai Haibara pull out the fried chicken takeout packaging from the trash can, he also looked embarrassed and his face fell.

"Doctor, you need to know that you're at the dangerous age of high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and high blood sugar. If you don't pay attention to your diet, your health will collapse very quickly! If I find you eating this kind of food again, you can only eat vegetable salad for dinner from now on!"

Because she had seen her older sister, Ai Haibara did not criticize Professor Agasa too harshly this time.

"Yes, I'm sorry, Ai!" Dr. Agasa naturally knew that Ai Haibara's original intention in doing this was for her own health, so he sincerely apologized to Ai.

But even though that's what they say, fried chicken and hamburgers are really delicious!

You know, ever since Ai came, I've really had very few opportunities to eat such delicious food.

"Bliss..."

Chapter 340 Invitation (2-in-1)

"Oh, right, Ai!"

After Ai Haibara cleaned up all the trash on the table, the Doctor looked at her somewhat embarrassedly.

"What's wrong, Professor Agasa?"
