Conan: The Romantic Daily Life of a Ghost Detective

Ai Haibara was taken aback for a moment, then as if she had thought of something, a trace of pity and sympathy appeared in her icy blue eyes.

Ai Haibara said softly, "I'm sorry, it was my fault. From now on, let's call each other by our first names."

Wen Shui was completely baffled, having no idea what this woman was up to.

Ai Haibara spoke first, in a voice loud enough for everyone to hear, "Warm Water, what kind of books do you like again?"

With a slightly stiff tone, Wen Shui laughed and said, "It's a detective novel, Ai-chan. Your memory is terrible."

Their conversation sounded like a stage play.

Sonoko Suzuki glanced at it out of the corner of her eye, and accidentally punctured the company application form with the tip of her pen.

The vice-captain immediately handed her a new one, his face beaming with a smile. It seemed that this vice-captain regarded Suzuki Sonoko as a cash cow, since all the students at Teitan knew that the tennis club now had training facilities almost identical to those of professional players, thanks to Suzuki Sonoko's addition.

The vice minister probably thought that if he could make Miss Suzuki happy, she might sponsor him to make games.

"So you two know each other! That's great! That way you won't feel lonely when we're not around," Senior Sister Zhen said with a smile as she watched the two whispering.

Wen Shui smiled and said, "Yes, but don't you seniors have club activities every day?"

"Occasionally, I'll go out to gather information or something." The senior student's expression was a little unnatural.

Wen Shui nodded.

Everyone in this club seems strange. If this were a horror game, they would at least be people who conspired to kill one of their own members.

Wait a minute, could it be that the deceased former minister...?

Ai Haibara secretly pinched his leg under the table, interrupting his daydreaming: "Calling me 'Ai-chan' is a bit much. We're not dating."

"What would be a suitable name?"

"Anything ordinary will do," Ai Haibara said.

Warm Water: "The Cold-Blooded Witch?"

Ai Haibara put on a cold, witch-like expression and then pinched his outer thigh.

"Okay, then let's call her Haibara." Wen Shui rubbed her legs.

Ai Haibara nodded, seemingly accepting the title.

Just as the two were whispering to each other, they suddenly heard hurried footsteps in the corridor, as if a group of people were approaching.

Soon, the door to the club activity room was opened.

A group of people wearing student council armbands walked in. The boy in the lead was not tall and had a fox-like face. Notably, he had a thick bandage wrapped around his head.

After looking around, the man with the gauze bandage said to the senior student, "Tomorrow is the final deadline. If you can't recruit new members to prove your worth, this place will be handed over to the divination department."

Satomi Sawada was the first to lose her temper: "Those people in the fortune-telling club are even less valuable than us!"

Senior Kosaka stopped Sawada and handed him the club membership application: "Vice President Honekawa, we have found new members. This time, a total of 4 people have joined our Literature Club."

"It's 'The Literature Department that writes from the heart'," the girl behind the student council vice president corrected.

Vice President Honekawa Shōfu frowned slightly as he took the membership application and scanned the unfamiliar faces of Wenshui and the others with a scrutinizing gaze.

When Vice President Honekawa saw Ai Haibara next to Wen Shui, his eyes widened instantly, and he pointed at Ai Haibara with his finger: "You, you, you...you're that violent woman who rides a Harley!"

Ai Haibara looked displeased: "Are all the student council members so rude?"

"You have the nerve to talk to me about manners?" The vice president roared, slamming his fist on the table and pointing to the wound on his head. "You almost killed me!"

He was spitting as he spoke, and the flying saliva was about to hit Ai Haibara's face.

Chapter 17 After School, Ai Haibara's Secret

Wen Shui, who was sitting near the door, noticed that the student council vice president, who had a fox-like face, liked to spit nonsense when he spoke.

He planned to slip to the side and watch the game.

Unexpectedly, he got up too quickly, his leg hit the table, and he lost his balance and crashed into the vice president.

To outsiders, this incident looked like he had discovered someone was being disrespectful to his girlfriend and was standing up to teach that person a lesson.

Even Ai Haibara, who was being shielded behind him, thought so.

A hint of surprise flashed in Ai Haibara's eyes, and then her gaze towards Wen Shui softened considerably.

The senior student opposite him even had the audacity to wink at him, conveying an expression of approval: "So this is the one you chose. Well, Wen Shui-kun has good taste."

Wen Shui felt like she was being supported.

However, if you can build a good relationship with Ai Haibara, you might be able to uncover more secrets about the Black Organization.

Thinking of this, Wen Shui immediately transformed into a fiercely protective husband, giving Vice President Gu Chuan a hard shove in the chest: "Get away from me, you bastard! Your saliva is about to spray in my face, it stinks!"

The force was too great, and the other person was pushed over and fell.

Vice President Honekawa got up, looking disheveled and glaring at him angrily.

Wen Shui felt that the other party would definitely rush up and fight him, but he wasn't afraid at all.

With Ran, a super karate expert, on my side, and the second young lady of the Suzuki Group as a solid backer, I feel like I can do whatever I want in Teitan.

Unexpectedly, Vice President Honekawa took a few deep breaths and suddenly looked remorseful: "I'm sorry, I was too impulsive. As the vice president of the student council, I actually brought off-campus grudges into the school. I will write a self-criticism when I get back."

Warm water: ?

What the heck? Where did your earlier bravado go?

Could it be that seeing Ran and Sonoko behind him made him too afraid to make a move?

At this moment, Ai Haibara suddenly spoke up: "You were riding your bike too fast on the sidewalk and almost hit that old lady. Moreover, the police investigation also determined that you were driving recklessly. Besides, I have already compensated you for your medical expenses."

With just a few simple words, Ai Haibara helped Wen Shui understand the ins and outs of the matter.

Then he suddenly remembered the question Ai Haibara had asked him at noon in the music room: would students who used legal means to harm Teitan students outside of school be punished?

At first, Wen Shui thought that Ai Haibara was hinting to him not to be too impulsive and cause trouble for Takashi Matsumoto and his gang.

Unexpectedly, she was the one who bumped into someone and injured them. Judging from the situation, it seems that she deliberately bumped into them.

The atmosphere in the club activity room plummeted to freezing point.

The eyes of Vice President Honekawa and his group were noticeably colder than before.

Wen Shui even suspected that Vice President Gu Chuan might tear up the membership application in his hand.

However, the other party hesitated for a moment, then smiled and said, "Don't worry, my conflict with this person..." He glanced down at the name on the application form and continued, "My conflict with this Haibara-san will not affect the review results for the Literature Club."

Ran and Sonoko both breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems that the two of them have already immersed themselves in the club members, and are even a little too naive.

Wen Shui, however, felt that things were not so simple. The vice president of the student council seemed to be a wolf in sheep's clothing, and this matter would probably not be so easily resolved.

Ai Haibara, standing beside him, shared a similar view. She narrowed her eyes, perhaps considering having Gin handle the matter.

As expected, Vice President Honekawa changed the subject: "However, although you have found new members, the content of your monthly magazine over the past six months has been extremely vulgar, and someone has even reported that you have been hiding prohibited items in the club activity room."

“We don’t have any contraband,” Misato Sawada retorted loudly.

Vice President Honekawa: "Let's check this activity room."

The student council members behind him immediately sprang into action, searching through the bookshelves and behind the sofa.

Taking advantage of this moment, Wenshui moved closer to Suzuki Sonoko.

"W-What are you doing?" Sonoko Suzuki was startled, her expression somewhat unnatural.

Wen Shui: "Your family has so much power, why do these people dare to be so arrogant in front of you?"

Sonoko Suzuki exclaimed in surprise, "You didn't know?"

"Know what?"

“You really only care about studying.” Sonoko Suzuki looked at him helplessly and explained in a low voice, “One of the sponsors of this school is the current prime minister’s teacher, and that old gentleman has always advocated traditional education, so no one dares to abuse their power here.”

"Even you can't do it?"

Sonoko Suzuki pouted: "My parents sent me here because they liked the learning environment. Besides me, there are also a lot of children of wealthy and powerful families here. They all have to behave themselves when they come here, but those people don't come to school very often."

The lukewarm water made my mouth water.

He thought that Vice President Honekawa switched to his smiling tiger mode because he was afraid of Ran and Sonoko.

Unexpectedly, it was because they were afraid of Teitan's school rules and punishments.

In other words, this school is like a fenced-off beginner village; at least within the school grounds, no one dares to cause trouble or abuse their privileges, and everything must be done according to the school rules.

No wonder Suzuki Sonoko didn't act like a spoiled princess when she was made to stand at the door as punishment, and the other students in the class seemed to think it was perfectly normal.

As Wen Shui was thinking, Suzuki Sonoko suddenly added, "If you are bullied, I can secretly have my bodyguard help you get revenge."

Sonoko Suzuki waved her little fists, her cheeks turning red in the sunlight, making her look incredibly cute.

Wen Shui smiled and said, "Thank you, I'll handle it myself."

After saying that, he quietly slipped away to Ai Haibara's side.

"You're too close to me." Ai Haibara delivered a piercing arrow right from the start.

However, recalling how Wen Shui had stood in front of him earlier, her tone softened: "Be more careful next time. Doing this all the time might make others misunderstand that we have a close relationship, and it could cause trouble if the organization sees us like this."

Wen Shui stepped back a little and asked, "Are you planning to let Gin and Vodka handle this?"

Ai Haibara: "No."

"Are you planning to poison all of these people?" Wen Shui asked.

Ai Haibara said helplessly, "In your impression, am I the kind of person who would poison someone to death over a small conflict?"

Warm Water: "Isn't that right?"

"The fact that you walked out of the music room alive is enough to prove my kindness and magnanimity." Ai Haibara said with displeasure.

Wen Shui looked down at Ai Haibara's chest; it was indeed very broad, at least broader than Ran and Sonoko's.

Moreover, its softness is also amazing, which I witnessed firsthand when I was warming water in the music classroom.

Noticing that Ai Haibara's gaze was a little off, Wen Shui quickly changed the subject: "So what do you plan to do? That guy named Honekawa probably won't be so easy to deal with."

"What's there to be afraid of? I already found out before I came," Ai Haibara said calmly. "One of the sponsors of this school is the current prime minister's..."
