Great Swordsman Ke Xue

He and Tsukamoto Sumimi parted ways at the school gate. The two of them were completely at odds with each other. This would not change anything based on their subjective wishes.

Of course, Shimizu Koji also had his own umbrella, so he didn't get wet.

All the way back home, it was only around four o'clock in the afternoon, which was still very early before the evening appointment. After putting down his bag, Shimizu Koji thought for a while and walked out of the house with an umbrella.

In Dr. A Li's house, Dr. A Li is an undisputed empty nester and the type with full of otaku attributes.

If it weren't for Haihara Ai's arrival, it would be hard to imagine whether he would suffer from depression if he lives in such a big house alone and does what he does at home all day long.

However, there are gains and losses. The arrival of Haiyuan Ai made the house more lively, but it also made his days of eating and drinking endlessly. It was okay to just have clear soup and little water every day, but... Shimizu Koji would also show up at his house on time for meals, enjoying completely different treatment from him.

"Ding dong——."

"Dr. Ali, good afternoon."

"It's Haoji, come in quickly, why is it so early today?"

Dr. Agasa was smiling, but he did not have any dissatisfaction with Koji Shimizu because of the usual difference in treatment.

In fact, he is still a very tolerant person, and he is the same on the outside.

Shimizu Koji walked into the entrance hall, and while changing into his own slippers, he casually replied: "Well, it rained and I had something to do at night, so I came back early."

"Hey wait-"

"Um?"

Shimizu Koji changed into his slippers and was about to walk into the hall, but unexpectedly, Dr. Ari closed the door and suddenly grabbed him.

Koji Shimizu was quite puzzled. Dr. Ari scratched his bald head, and the smile on his old face became a little weird.

"Doctor, what's wrong with you? Do you have anything to say?"

"Well, Haoji, don't rush in just yet. I have something to ask you."

Dr. Agasa lowered his voice. His gesture made Koji Shimizu feel even more strange, but he was still very cooperative and stopped.

"Hey, Hao Er, are you really with Xiao Ai?"

Dr. A Li didn't finish his words, because this was enough, and this time, Shimizu Koji's expression became weird.

"Doctor, who did you listen to?"

If Koji Shimizu remembered correctly, although he and Ai Haihara often came in and out together in front of the doctor, they had never done anything excessive before.

Dr. Ali had obviously listened to and accepted his statement that he treated Xiao Ai as his sister.

"Uh, no, no, actually it was me——."

"It must be Conan."

Dr. Agasa tried to quibble, but Koji Shimizu saw through his lie at a glance. In other words, Koji Shimizu guessed it from the beginning.

"Uh" Dr. A Li showed an awkward smile.

Qingshui Koji was a little speechless, but still nodded, "Yes, Xiao Ai and I are indeed in a relationship."

"Ah this?!" Although Dr. Ali was mentally prepared, he still couldn't help being surprised when he heard Koji Shimizu admit so decisively.

He cautiously looked into the hall, but Huihara Ai was not there. He carefully turned back and observed the expression of Koji Shimizu.

"Hao Er, this, wouldn't this be bad? Xiao Ai, after all."

"Oh, don't worry, doctor, I'm measured."

Koji Shimizu looked magnanimous and showed no shame or self-consciousness. Dr. Ari opened his mouth, but many words were stuck in his throat, and it was difficult to say them out for a while.

That was indeed what he wanted to say, but Koji Shimizu's words, "He has a sense of discretion," blocked all his words.

What is proportionality?

It was at this time that Dr. Ari suddenly felt a little uneasy from Koji Shimizu, and then suddenly remembered that Koji Shimizu was a first-year student, at the age when he was most energetic and least controllable.

After saying these words, Shimizu Koji saw that Dr. Ali was somewhat silent, so he stopped explaining and turned around and walked indoors.

This is his and Haibara Ai's own business. Dr. Ali's concern is understandable and acceptable, but this guy Conan——.

For a moment, it was hard for Shimizu Koji to imagine what kind of mentality and what kind of words Conan had when he came to gossip about the matter between him and Haibara Ai with Dr. Ali. He had only given him a good warning. That guy once.

You can't. Did you accidentally let it slip?

More than ten minutes later, Haiyuan Ai came up from the basement.

Qingshui Koji went to call her just now, but she didn't know what to do, so she lingered down there for a long time.

"What do you want for dinner?"

Haibara Ai was wearing a very clean blue apron and slippers, and slowly walked to the sofa where Shimizu Koji was.

Her expression was calm and natural, because she had not encountered the situation that Koji Shimizu had encountered, and Dr. Ari did not have the guts to talk to her about this.

Well, including Koji Shimizu, he actually wouldn't say anything to her about the relationship between the two. It's not that he didn't dare, but that's the character of Haibara Ai.

You can kiss, hug, and lift her up, but let her admit that this is a bit difficult for the time being. After all, Haiyuan Ai has said something that is absolutely not very good.

Moreover, what's the use of admitting it? It's just a pointless attempt to tease the tiger's beard.

"When did you buy this apron? It's very beautiful." The words in Qingshui Koji's mouth may have been sweet now, so it's natural and handy to say nice things.

Huiyuan Ai raised her eyebrows. Although her eyes didn't change much, it was obvious that her mood was much better, just like her mouth was bent uncontrollably.

Of course, she was in a good mood. Even before coming up, she was using the computer and listening to music with headphones.

However, facing Qingshui Koji, she didn't want to show that she was in a good mood.

Because just as Qingshui Koji knew her personality, if she acted very relaxed and happy, Qingshui Koji would definitely take the opportunity.

Hum.

"I bought it yesterday, um, what are you looking at?"

Huiyuan Ai suddenly glanced, and her cold little face couldn't help showing a hint of curiosity. She walked to Qingshui Koji's side.

Qingshui Koji didn't think there was anything wrong. He unfolded the newspaper in his hand generously, and by the way, he held Huiyuan Ai in his arms.

This action inevitably attracted a glare, because Haibara Ai had her own hands and feet, and originally planned to sit next to him, but Shimizu Koji would not let her go, or rather, would not let go of any opportunity to "tease" her.

But in just a second, Haibara Ai was attracted by the eye-catching headline and accompanying picture on the front page of the newspaper.

"Chris Wynyard, the daughter of a legendary actress, a new generation of legend!"

This was a newly published newspaper. Haibara Ai's eyes moved to the woman in the picture wearing a dress and holding a crystal goblet, and her small body trembled uncontrollably in an instant.

"Huh!? What's wrong with you?"

Shimizu Koji was startled and quickly lowered his head to check the situation in front of her.

Haibara Ai no longer cared about Shimizu Koji's overly intimate behavior at this time. Her ice-blue pupils trembled slightly, and she closed the newspaper instantly with a "swish".

"No, nothing." Haibara Ai said this, and even the little fly next to her almost didn't believe it.

Two black lines appeared on Shimizu Koji's forehead. This reaction and tone, he was taken for a fool, right?

He picked up Haibara Ai from under his ribs and turned her around to face him.

"Tell the truth."

These four simple words made Haibara Ai's face, which was trying to be calm, suddenly reveal a trace of depression.

Shimizu Koji is getting more and more unserious! I thought what was going on now!

However, ignorance is not a crime, so for this reason, she didn't bother with Shimizu Koji.

In silence, Haibara Ai thought silently. Finally, her eyes drooped.

"Vermouth - this is her code name."
