"yes."

Xiao Ai said in a cold tone:

Hearing this, Gao Yuan's eyes became a little strange and he said doubtfully:

"What is she doing alone?"

Because in that weird dream trial, Gao Yuan learned ten years later that Yuanzi had confessed to him. So in reality, Gao Yuan could not help but be a little concerned about Yuanzi's affairs——

"have no idea."

Xiao Ai answered indifferently.

In this regard, Gao Yuan couldn't help but feel a little helpless——

Having just experienced that kind of dream, Gao Yuan still couldn't help but think about that when Yuanzi came to find him alone.

But it really doesn’t make sense. With Sonoko’s character, if she was really interested in him, she should have shown it long ago!

And ever since Yukiko Kudo saw herself without the "Hermit" and said, "It looks quite handsome," she has been very careful to wear the "Hermit" when facing outsiders...

Wait a moment!

When I was in the mountain villa, in order to pretend to be the "bandage weirdo", I didn't wear the "hermit"!

Could it be possible that just because of this...

Not necessarily... After all, that kind of thing happened in the mountain villa of Yuanzi's family. It's not necessarily that Yuanzi came to see me after the incident and had something to do with it...

But then again, I have no idea what the specific effect of "Hermit" is -

After all, I only know the effect of "Detective's Magical Windbreaker", and I have no way of knowing whether the effect will change after upgrading to "Hermit"!

Moreover, after wearing the "Hermit" for so long, it has begun to get a little damaged. It is impossible for me to wear the "Hermit" forever. Sooner or later, one day, just like in the dream ten years later, I will wear ordinary clothes.

of clothing...

Seeing that he was deep in thought after hearing his reply, Xiao Ai's expression couldn't help but become a little cold - Speaking of which, he didn't know where he was standing that night, whether he heard what Suzuki Sonoko said.

In a word...

But soon, while Gao Yuan and Xiao Ai were still in the living room, the doorbell rang outside the door——

At this time, Suzuki Sonoko had already returned to the door of Akechi's house, carrying a fruit basket, and pressed the doorbell.

In response, Xiao Ai showed no expression as she walked up the stairs towards her bedroom on the second floor, leaving Gao Yuan to open the door alone——

At this point, knowing that the other party had deliberately bought a condolence gift to visit him, Gao Yuan could not just turn the person away, so he opened the door and invited Suzuki Sonoko to come in.

"Mr. Akechi! I heard that you were sick. Are you feeling better now?"

As soon as he entered the door and put on his slippers at the entrance, Yuanzi put the fruit basket on the coffee table in the living room and asked with concern:

"Also, the injury to your left eye doesn't matter, right?"

"Much better. Thank you for your concern, Miss Sonoko."

Wearing a mask, Gao Yuan smiled awkwardly, then turned his head and coughed hard several times.

Seeing this, Yuanzi couldn't help but stepped forward and asked worriedly:

"Are you okay? It seems to be quite serious. Maybe you should go see a doctor!"

"It's okay. I saw the doctor yesterday."

——What should I do? Because of that dream, I can’t face Suzuki Sonoko calmly now!

Thinking like this, under the mask, Gao Yuan could only smile bitterly and said, "As long as you have a good rest for a few days, you will be fine..."

"By the way, what do you want Miss Sonoko to do when you come here today?"

After taking a moment, Gao Yuan thought for a while and could only ask this question.

"Is such that."

Yuanzi said:

"It was originally a good party, but I didn't expect to encounter such an incident. Instead, I troubled Mr. Mingzhi and did so many things. So, in order to thank Mr. Mingzhi, let's go to the concert together this weekend! At that time, Mr. Mingzhi's

The cold should be gone too!"

Hearing this, Gao Yuan couldn't help but smile awkwardly——

"That's it... I'll see if I'm free when the time comes..."

After thinking about it, Gao Yuan could only answer like this.

"Well."

After receiving such a reply from Gao Yuan, Yuanzi couldn't help but smile and said, "I won't disturb Mr. Mingzhi's rest today!"

So, after saying goodbye to Gao Yuan, Yuanzi left Gao Yuan's house.

In this regard, after watching Yuanzi leave, Gao Yuan reluctantly breathed a sigh of relief——

It's all because of that weird dream that makes me feel so embarrassed now... But then again, the final reward "Queen of Swords" said in the effect, "Don't be entangled, don't hesitate, then most of what you do can be done."

"Success", is this considered advice to yourself?

Thinking like this, Gao Yuan felt very tired before his cold was over, so he chose to go back to the bedroom upstairs, lie down on the bed, and prepare to have a good rest...

In this way, at night, when Hattori Heiji returned to Akechi's house, Xiao Ai woke up Takato in order to receive Hattori Heiji.

"Detective brother, what's wrong with you?"

Sitting down in the living room, seeing Takato having a cold and fever, wearing a mask, and smelling of disinfectant, Hattori Heiji couldn't help but said:

"I had a cold when we first met, and you caught a cold again this time... You have to exercise well to keep fit!"

As he spoke, Hattori Heiji began to search in the sports backpack he carried with him. Then he suddenly remembered something and said with great self-reproach:

"Really, I forgot about it. I gave that 'special medicine' to Detective Maori as a souvenir."

Seeing this, looking at Hattori Heiji's careless look, Takato couldn't help but complain:

"The 'special medicine' you are talking about is not the same kind of Chinese bar called 'Baigan'er'!"

"yes."

Hattori Heiji smiled and said:

"Detective, didn't it have a great effect after drinking it last time? The cold was all gone the next day!"

"You won't give this wine to others this time, will you?"

In this regard, Gao Yuan couldn't help but said helplessly.

"yes!"

Hattori Heiji laughed loudly:

"It happened that the little brother in the detective agency had a cold, so I gave him that wine. I have to say, the effect was quite good! He sweated and the high fever went away! But because of his age,

Too young, I can’t drink enough, I seem to be still asleep now..."

As he said that, facing Takato's eye roll, Hattori Heiji seemed to feel a little embarrassed. He couldn't help but touch the back of his head and start laughing.

At this time, Xiao Ai walked out of the study and said seriously:

"I called and asked. Edogawa's condition has worsened and he is unconscious in the hospital! I don't know when he will recover!"

Hearing this, Hattori Heiji's expression became even more embarrassed.

"From some aspects, drinking alcohol can temporarily relieve certain symptoms such as headaches and fever caused by colds. However, drinking alcohol when you have a cold is like drinking poison to quench your thirst. After the alcohol wears off, the condition will become more serious."

Seeing this, Xiao Ai couldn't help but scolded in a teaching tone:

"In addition, alcohol can interact with a variety of drugs, easily interfering with the normal metabolism of drugs, thereby causing organ damage. If it is a cephalosporin drug, it can also cause a toxic acetaldehyde reaction, which can lead to respiratory depression, myocardial infarction, and acute heart failure.

Severe symptoms such as these can even lead to shock and death if not treated in time."

"I know, I know!"

Faced with Xiao Ai's accusation, Hattori Heiji laughed and said:

"I won't do this again in the future! Really, little detective, this kid of yours really knows a lot! He's also very good at teaching people, just like a little grown-up!"

With that said, Hattori Heiji forcibly changed the topic:

"But having said that, I am really convinced that I lost this time. I completely lost to that guy Kudo Shinichi!"

"Have you met Kudo Shinichi?"

Gao Yuan asked knowingly.

"yes!"

Hattori Heiji said with emotion, "The moment I saw him actually appear, I was really shocked!"
Chapter completed!
