Izu Invitation Voucher

[Red Herring: That's not quite right. Although they still haven't caught Kaito Kid, that detective named Fujino is indeed very strong. He once single-handedly dismantled a criminal organization on Moonlight Island and even worked with the police to arrest an Italian transnational bandit. As for why they didn't catch him, it can only be said that his strength is on par with Kaito Kid.]

[The Disciple of the Magician (Suzuki Sonoko): That's right, that's right. Detective Fujino is indeed very strong. I once saw him subdue a bank robber with Wooden Sword.]

[Phantom: @The Disciple of the Magician: Do you know Fujino Doji?]

[The Disciple of the Magician: No, that's not it. I happened to be at the bank withdrawing money when I witnessed that scene.]

"Looks like my plan worked..."

Fujino rubbed his chin, glancing at the Red Herring in the chat room speaking for him on the computer screen, a slight smile of satisfaction curving his lips.

Kuroba Kaito and Kaito Kid are among the top fighters in the Conan World, not in terms of raw power, but in terms of their methods.

Douzi's magic tricks are indeed very impressive.

Even with his Vision Enhancement Glasses, he couldn't see through Douzi's magic tricks and figure out what methods he used.

The fact that a professional Kaito Kid tasked with protecting the jewels would appear was definitely unexpected for him.

However, this also gave him an opportunity.

That's doing Kuroba Kaito a favor.

As the saying goes, human relationships are priceless.

His stab wasn't for nothing. By doing this favor, Fujino only needs to Kuroba Kaito inform Kaito Kuroba if there's any danger in the future, Kaito Kid will definitely come to help.

This is the way of human relationships and social interactions.

Early the next morning.

The sun was shining brightly, and the streets were bustling with traffic.

Fujino stood in front of the balcony and stretched out a big yawn.

"I fought that Spider guy so fiercely yesterday, but I don't feel tired at all today..."

Fujino clenched his fist. "It seems to be the effect of the University Student Trait and the medical profession."

"Knock knock!"

Just then, there was a knock on the bedroom door, and Akemi Miyano's voice came from outside. "Fujino- kun, may I come in?"

Fujino looked down and glanced at the pajamas she was wearing.

Only after confirming that there was nothing amiss did he reply, "Please come in."

After receiving a response, Akemi Miyano pushed open the door and walked in, followed by Ai Haibara.

"You said you won a complimentary ticket to the Izu Queen Grand Hotel?"

"That's right."

Akemi Miyano chuckled and explained, "Just yesterday, when I took Ai out shopping, we happened to come across a lucky draw. There were three chances to win, and the first prize was a three-day, two-night stay at the Izu Queen Grand Hotel."

"And then you won all three invitation tickets?"

Fujino looked at the three invitation tickets on the coffee table with a strange expression. "How lucky..."

Three chances, and they snatched all the first prizes.

This level of luck is off the charts.

It's practically on par with a certain unicorn.

Could it be that the Soul Lotus has some unique luck bonus?

"That's exactly what I meant."

Akemi Miyano nodded, then looked at Ai Haibara beside her. "Ai is actually quite lucky. Although she didn't win the first prize, she did win the second prize, Black Gothic Dress."

"Black Gothic Dress?"

Fujino turned his gaze to Ai Haibara.

"Ai looks really cute in that dress."

"Ahem... I'm going to cook."

Ai Haibara felt the gazes directed at her, her face flushed, she coughed lightly, and immediately dragged her small body to the kitchen.

"The child is shy."

As Akemi Miyano watched Ai Haibara's departing figure, she chuckled softly, "It seems she cares about you a lot."

"Ah?"

Fujino looked at Akemi Miyano with surprise upon hearing this.

Akemi Miyano said in a serious tone, "A little girl like Ai Haibara's age is very sensitive about showing a shy side in front of people she cares about."

Where did you learn all this?

"In emotional programs on TV."

"..."

"I'll go check on how Ai's breakfast is going, and see if there's anything I can help with."

Fujino was speechless for a moment, then stood up and walked towards the kitchen.

With the three of them working hard, breakfast was quickly prepared.

"By the way, Sister Akemi, is there a time limit for using the invitation ticket you drew?"

At the dining table, Fujino scooped up a spoonful of hot porridge.

Is there a time limit for its use?

Akemi Miyano pulled out the invitation voucher. "It seems to be valid only this month."

"By the way, when is next weekend?"

Fujino couldn't help but ask.

He checked the time this morning, and today should be Monday, August 5th.

If it's the weekend, then it could be any particular day.

"It should be the day after tomorrow."

Ai Haibara took out her phone and glanced at today's date. "Today is August 5th, the day after tomorrow is Saturday, August 10th, and then the 11th is Mountain Day."

"August 10th."

Fujino frowned almost imperceptibly upon hearing this, "What's the date tomorrow...?"

"August 2nd."

Ai Haibara responded calmly, but her gaze toward Fujino was somewhat strange.

"..."

Well, he was speechless.

So he's the only one who doesn't know the time and date in this world?

But speaking of which day the one-month limit on the invitation voucher actually begins?

"Since the day after tomorrow is Saturday, how about we take tomorrow off and go to Izu?"

Putting his thoughts aside, Fujino suggested, "Let's take this opportunity to relax at the beach for a few days."

Akemi Miyano suddenly spoke up at this moment, "I'm afraid tomorrow won't work."

"Sister Akemi, is there something you need?"

Fujino looked at Akemi Miyano curiously. He remembered that usually, apart from doing housework, going out to buy groceries, and chatting with the neighborhood aunties, Akemi Miyano didn't have any close friends. Since she didn't have a job, she didn't have anything to deal with for the time being.

"No, something's wrong."

Akemi Miyano spoke softly, stammering, "The Izu Hotel on the invitation ticket is by the sea..."

Neither Sister Akemi nor I have swimsuits.

Ai Haibara nearby, picked up where Akemi Miyano.

"It was my oversight."

Fujino nodded in understanding.

He almost forgot about this: the Izu Queen Grand Hotel is built by the sea and uses the sea as its selling point. If you go to the seaside, you will definitely need a swimsuit.

He basically provided all of Akemi Miyano and Ai Haibara's clothes; there was no option for swimsuits.

He himself was fine; he could just run to the beach in a pair of shorts. But the two girls... definitely needed a proper swimsuit.

"In that case, let's go on vacation the day after tomorrow. It will be perfect to take advantage of the holiday at the Mountain Day and use up all three days of the voucher. Tomorrow, I'll ask for a day off and take you two to buy swimsuits first."

As for why it takes a whole day to buy a swimsuit...

That's just how girls are.

Moreover, he still has to personally oversee the selection of swimsuits.

Swimsuits are something you have to choose carefully, otherwise it can be embarrassing.
