……

the next day.

It was also the last day of the Teitan High School school fair.

Early in the morning, Akemi Miyano drove to Yuu Aragaki's house.

Before the two set off, at Akemi Miyano's suggestion, Yuya Aragaki made a special phone call to Professor Agasa's house to ask if they wanted to go together to see Ran's performance.

However, to Miyano Akemi's dismay, Professor Agasa said that Ai Haibara needed to rest at home due to a cold, so she couldn't come along.

Similarly, the Doctor cannot go because he needs to stay home to take care of Ai Haibara.

"What a pity! Ai was perfectly fine just a couple of days ago," Miyano Akemi said regretfully as she drove.

Aragaki Yu smiled to himself in response.

Whether it was Ai Haibara running to the hospital that night to "warn" Conan, or Ai Haibara pretending to be sick and impersonating Conan this time, he had already guessed it with the reminder of his past life memories.

It seems that Ai Haibara's temporary antidote has been successfully administered.

During the upcoming carnival, Ai Haibara will impersonate Conan, allowing Conan to temporarily revert to Shinichi Kudo's appearance. The two will then appear together, thus dispelling Ran's suspicions about Conan.

Of course, Aragaki Yuu didn't intend to expose this.

After all, what follows is a rare and spectacular show.

If I remember correctly, that charcoal-haired guy in Osaka...

Ah, no.

It seems that the detective Heiji Hattori from Osaka will also appear disguised as Shinichi Kudo.

In addition, there's Judy, who's already at the school, and Vermouth, who's taken over the identity of the new doctor.

This is getting more and more interesting.

Of course, that's not all. To make things even more interesting, Yuka Aragaki specially invited someone to participate in the performance.

That will definitely surprise Shinichi Kudo.

Thinking of this, Yuu Aragaki couldn't help but smile slightly.

Akemi Miyano was driving and therefore did not notice what was happening.

However, the Yuki-onna, who was sitting obediently on Aragaki Yu's shoulders, instinctively shivered when she saw this scene.

This kind of Onmyoji is really too eerie...

Soon, Akemi Miyano drove with Yuu Aragaki to Teitan High School.

After finding a parking space and parking their car, the two walked together toward the carnival grounds.

This year's carnival is quite large in scale.

The student council basically mobilized all clubs and classes to participate in this carnival.

Therefore, the venue for the entire school fair can be said to cover almost the entire Teitan High School campus.

At the school gate, Aragaki Yu and Miyano Akemi met Kogoro Mouri and "Conan," whom they had agreed to meet at the gate the day before.

To Miyano Akemi's surprise, Conan was wearing a mask and looked like he also had a cold.

This……

What a coincidence!

Chapter 482 Gathering Together (1)

"Aragaki-san!"

Just as Aragaki Yu and Miyano Akemi walked up to Mouri Kogoro and Conan.

The two girls rushed up to Aragaki Yu.

"Hello...you!" The two women lowered their heads, looking somewhat shy.

"Hello?" Aragaki Yu looked at the two girls with some surprise. If he remembered correctly, they didn't seem to be his classmates.

Could he be from the class next door?

Under Aragaki Yu's gaze, the two girls became even more awkward, until they gave Miyano Akemi, who was standing next to Aragaki Yu, a somewhat resentful look.

They then took out carefully prepared lunch boxes from their bags and said somewhat shyly, "We heard from Sonoko-senpai that you were coming today, and we...we were worried that you and your girlfriend hadn't eaten breakfast, so we prepared this especially for you!"

Sonoko-senpai?

Aragaki Yu glanced at the two girls with surprise.

So, they're both first-year students at Teitan High School.

Since Teitan High School uses the same uniforms for all grades, Aragaki Yutsu didn't notice this.

"well!!??"

Miyano Akemi, on the other hand, looked at the two high school girls in front of her with a rather strange expression.

girlfriend?

Is he talking about himself?

Also, what's with these two girls behaving so strangely?

More importantly, I never expected that my little brother Aragaki would be so popular at school!

No, I absolutely have to introduce my little sister Shiho to Aragaki-kun right away!

Ai Haibara, who was disguised as Conan, also twitched her lips slightly.

It's not surprising that Yuu Aragaki is popular, given his handsome and cool looks, and his gentle nature at times.

But seeing this scene before her, she felt a strange sense of unease.

I don't know if it's because of my older sister or because of Aragaki Yu.

"hateful!!!"

As Aragaki Yu smiled and accepted the lunchboxes from the two high school girls, Haibara Ai secretly gritted her teeth.

As for why Aragaki Yu accepted their lunch boxes...

After all, if he embarrassed the two girls in front of so many people, Yuu Aragaki was worried that he would be killed in the world of Detective Conan, especially in a carnival with so many Grim Reapers.

In the world of Detective Conan, it's not uncommon for love to turn into hate.

Kogoro Mouri, who had been adjusting his tie for a while after seeing a girl walking towards him but found no one paying attention to him, looked at Yuu Aragaki, who was being pestered by a high school girl, and felt both envious and angry.

"Damn it, why isn't I the one who's so popular?!"

……

Ran and her friends were performing their play in the school's assembly hall, so after saying goodbye to his two junior classmates, Aragaki Yu headed straight for the hall.

Backstage, Sonoko, who had entered earlier, also moved closer to Ran.

Xiaolan was peeking at the audience from behind the curtain, looking a little nervous. "Huh? Are you kidding me? How come there are so many people here! Soon it will be our turn to perform!"

"Because everyone has high expectations for this play! That's because we've been promoting it as an even more romantic love story than the tragic love story of Romeo and Juliet!"

Hearing Sonoko say that, Ran rolled her eyes at her with a hint of reproach.

At this moment, she finally understood who was responsible for bringing so many viewers here.

"Xiaolan!"

Just then, a familiar female voice came from behind Xiaolan.

Xiaolan turned around in surprise, but immediately became delighted when she saw who it was. "It's you, He Ye!"

"Hmph~" Kazuha chuckled cutely, her hands behind her back, blinking her eyes. "I still decided to come. Even though Heiji said my coming would be a hassle for you, I still came."

"Then... Heiji Hattori didn't come?" Ran turned her head and looked around in confusion, and sure enough, she didn't see Heiji Hattori anywhere.

"Sigh~ And I admired him so much." Sonoko, who was standing next to Ran, couldn't help but mutter.

"Um!?"

Upon hearing what Atomic said, Kazuha immediately became alert.

"No!" Seeing this, Ran quickly explained, fearing that there might be some misunderstanding between Sonoko and Kazuha, "Actually, Sonoko likes another boy who likes to wear black, right?"

After saying that, Xiaolan gave Yuanzi a warning look.

She knew, of course, that Sonoko was just joking, but it wouldn't be good if it caused any resentment between Kazuha and Sonoko.

"Hehe~" Seeing Ran's gaze, Sonoko turned her head away shyly and didn't say anything more.

"By the way, where is Shinichi Kudo? You must have invited him too, Ran."

Knowing that Sonoko didn't have any special feelings for Heiji, Kazuha relaxed and then brought up another person she had always wanted to meet.

After all, Shinichi Kudo is someone Heiji always talks about, and he's also Ran's childhood friend. Kazuha really wants to get to know him.

Hearing Kazuha mention Shinichi, Ran's heart skipped a beat. She subconsciously glanced at Conan, who was standing not far away with Aragaki Yu and the others, and her expression unconsciously became a little lonely.

However, she still waved her hand as if nothing had happened and said, "I didn't specifically invite him!"
