White Valentine's Day...

After hearing Conan explain tomorrow's date with a shy look, Gao Yuan knew the reason——

The so-called White Day is the continuation of Western Valentine's Day on February 14th. According to Japanese custom, usually on Valentine's Day on February 14th, if a man receives a gift from a woman, he will receive a gift from the woman on the third day of the month.

On White Day, the 14th day of the month, it’s the man’s turn to return the favor.

In this regard, Gao Yuan roughly understood why Conan planned to return the gift, but...

"But on Valentine's Day, the person who received the chocolate was Conan, right? If that's the case, why did you plan to reciprocate the gift as Kudo Shinichi? How will you explain it to Xiaolan then?"

Gao Yuan asked, somewhat puzzled.

"But after all, the chocolates that time were originally intended to be given to Shinichi by Xiaolan, so just take it as a gift..."

Continuing to look a little coy, Conan replied.

Seeing this, Gao Yuan nodded with some understanding, but he still felt that something was not right. It seemed that this was not what Conan would have thought. He also said that he was stimulated by something and wanted to give him a White Valentine's Day gift in return.

In this way, we can indirectly express the existence of Kudo Shinichi to Xiaolan?

Subconsciously, Gao Yuan thought like this.

However, looking at Conan's coquettish look, he felt embarrassed to ask him the specific reason, so Gao Yuan did not ask further questions and just said:

"Okay, let's go to the mall first."

As he said that, Gao Yuan couldn't help but think deeply——

But, as a return gift for White Day...

…

On the next day, which was White Valentine's Day, near Aido City Park, Gao Yuan and Xiao Ai came to the door of an Italian restaurant called "AMORE" and looked at the "Closed" sign hanging on the door.

, Gao Yuan and Xiao Ai couldn't help feeling a little strange, but Xiao Ai still held his hands in front of him, with a somewhat depressed expression, and asked helplessly:

"Is this the Italian restaurant that Edogawa suggested you come to? It seems like it's not open."

"'AMORE'...it is indeed here..."

In response, Gao Yuan double-checked the name of the store in front of him to confirm that he was not in the wrong place. Gao Yuan seemed to feel a little strange and murmured:

"Conan told me yesterday that he came to this store right now. He seemed to need my help with something...or was it because something happened inside?"

"Ala--"

However, listening to Gao Yuan's muttering to himself, Xiao Ai's mood seemed to change a little, and she said slightly coldly:

"So you came to this Italian restaurant today to help Edogawa..."

"Yeah, after all, from the look of Conan yesterday, it seemed like things were a bit troublesome today."

Nodding, Gao Yuan responded, and then stood in front of the door. Through the glass on the door, he noticed that there seemed to be many people moving in the restaurant behind the door. It seemed that the store was not completely empty now.

The store was closed, so after thinking about it, Gao Yuan still tried to push the door open and entered the store——

As soon as I walked into the store, I saw several young women in evening dresses appearing through the door.

"Ah, he's a handsome guy I've never seen before! Is he also Kensuke's friend?"

Surprised, one of the young women expressed such surprise after seeing Gao Yuan come in, but then, after thinking about it, she sighed:

"But if you are a customer coming to eat, I'm really sorry, the store is closed today..."

"Wow! Brother Mingzhi! You are indeed here!"

However, before the young woman could regretfully send Gao Yuan away, the voice of a familiar little boy came from farther inside the store. He was wearing a suit, shorts, and a red bow tie.

Conan, a little boy wearing glasses, ran out of the store with a smile and said to Gao Yuan.

"Conan!"

Seeing that Conan was really here, Gao Yuan knew that coming here was indeed a mistake, but now...

Looking at the decoration in the store, it looked like a party was being held, so he couldn't help but look at Conan with curious eyes, as if asking something——

"How is this going?"

Also confused was Xiao Ai who followed in.

After seeing the decoration of this store and the presence of so many young women, Xiao Ai couldn't help but feel strange about this situation. And since today was a special day, she somewhat guessed and asked Conan lightly.

"Anyway, brother Mingzhi, come here first!"

Seeing Gao Yuan and Xiao Ai's doubts, Conan did not explain, but pulled Gao Yuan and Xiao Ai towards the store.

In this regard, seeing that Gao Yuan and Xiao Ai were acquaintances of Conan, and the woman who was originally planning to see off Gao Yuan with some regrets because she thought Gao Yuan was just a guest, she didn't care about anything and let them walk into the store.

Several of the women couldn't help but cast enthusiastic glances at Gao Yuan.

Seeing this, Gao Yuan pretended not to see it and followed Conan towards the store——

Anyway, I have listened to Conan's words and got here, so what exactly is going on? I just have to wait and see where Conan will take me next.

However, looking at the decoration in this store, it seems that a party is being held, and when she first came in, the young woman asked herself if she was a friend of "Kensuke", so the party that wanted to come here would most likely be with that name.

"Kensuke" is related to people.

but……

"Kensuke"?

I don’t know anyone with this name…

"Xiaolan, Yuanzi, thank you so much. If it weren't for your help, I wouldn't be able to prepare the party like this..."

Just as Gao Yuan was thinking this, he followed Conan to the side of the restaurant hall. Gao Yuan heard a strange, gentle male voice mentioning the names of "Xiaolan" and "Yuanzi".

Looking along the sound, I saw Xiaolan and Yuanzi in private clothes chatting with a young man in a very formal suit on one side of the hall.

And if you look closely, you can see that this is a very handsome young man with short, thick hair. The bangs on his forehead can slightly cover his eyebrows. He wears glasses and looks very gentle and gentle——

This appearance seems a bit familiar...

For a moment, this was Gao Yuan's first reaction after seeing this man.

As for Conan, he looked depressed about the situation in front of him.

In this regard, seeing Xiao Lan chatting with this man, and looking at Conan's reaction, Xiao Ai on the side held his hands in front of him, looking meaningfully at the man who came with him and others.

Conan seemed to have thought about why Conan asked Gao Yuan to come over, and he couldn't help but smile.

At the same time, Gao Yuan seemed to look at Conan with understanding, then smiled helplessly, then stepped forward and greeted Xiaolan and Yuanzi:

"Xiaolan, Yuanzi!"

"Ah, it's Mr. Akechi!"

In this way, when they heard Gao Yuan's voice here, Xiaolan and Yuanzi, who were chatting with the man in front of them, couldn't help turning their heads and looked at Gao Yuan. Then, with some surprise, Yuanzi asked:

"Why did Mr. Akechi come here?"

"Ah, this... Conan asked me to come."

Waving his hand, Gao Yuan didn't lie, and sold Conan directly——

After all, I couldn't make up any good reasons, so I just told the truth.

Immediately, after hearing this, Yuanzi looked a little straight-faced. He stared at Conan aside, seeming to understand something, and said:

"Sure enough... this kid is looking for Mr. Mingzhi to be his 'rescue'!"

"'Rescue'? What happened?"

Pretending to be confused, Gao Yuan first looked around at Xiaolan, Yuanzi and the man, and then he couldn't help but look at Conan, and then he saw that Conan couldn't help but hide behind him to avoid Yuanzi's displeasure with him.

sight.

"I don't know what happened to this little brat. Every time Xiaolan meets the new doctor, he runs out to cause trouble. I don't know if he was instructed by someone behind the scenes..."

As if making a guess, Yuanzi said:

"So it will be the same this time, but I didn't expect that I would ask Mr. Akechi to come over..."

"New doctor?"

And suddenly, when he heard Yuanzi mention this name, Gao Yuan couldn't help but look at the young man——

No wonder, it looks familiar...

This title represents a relatively important character in the original work. Shinde Chiaki is a doctor by profession and serves as the school doctor of Teidan High School. He was also an outstanding student who graduated first in Toto Medical University and because of

He is friends with Xiaolan and has close contact with her, so he has made Conan jealous many times.

Later in the original work, Belmod, a member of the organization who returned to Japan, pretended to be a new doctor for a long time in order to get close to Xiaolan and the others, so he was considered a relatively important main character.

but……

"At this point in time, it's still me..."

Looking at the man in front of him, Gao Yuan knew that he was a very good person because of the impression in the original work, so Gao Yuan looked at him with a smile.

"Yes, that's right, Dr. Shinde Chiaki, who is now working as a school doctor in our school."
