Do I Really Look That Much Like a Cao Thief?!

"You really messed it up?"

"Yeah."

Ai Haibara glanced at the two people not far away, crossed her arms and said calmly, "Not only did we mess up the cooking, but we even set the iron bucket we used for cooking on fire."

Fujino couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, "You set the metal bucket on fire too?"

"It was these two children who added the sesame oil."

Professor Agasa chuckled sheepishly, "They heard that cooking this way would make it taste better, and then they accidentally set it on fire."

"Sesame oil?"

Fujino couldn't help but question his own past common sense.

The oil that can set the entire iron drum ablaze must be sesame oil, not something mixed with diesel or gasoline.

And the sesame oil even managed to set the metal bucket on fire...

The idea that boys in the Conan World can't cook is just too outrageous, isn't it?

He originally thought it was bizarre enough that the Black and White Duo couldn't even cut a cucumber, but it was already outrageous enough that Professor Agasa could cut an onion so skillfully.

I never imagined that these two, the fat one and the thin one, could set the pot on fire while cooking rice and adding sesame oil...

What I'm saying is, not being able to cook doesn't mean you're useless, right?

"It must have been hard on you to help watch over these kids while they cooked."

Thinking of this, Fujino couldn't help but sigh and patted Ai Haibara's head reassuringly, "I'll help you keep an eye on things this time."

The young cook nodded vigorously, agreeing with this.

About ten minutes passed.

This time, under the joint supervision of Fujino and Ai, the two mythical beasts did not cause any trouble and successfully cooked two buckets of rice.

The curry was already cooked, and with the rice served, everyone enjoyed a hearty meal.

Feeling they couldn't finish it all, the group shared the result of their ordeal with the outdoor enthusiasts.

The early evening after dinner.

The sun quietly set, the passing wind turned into an evening breeze, and the forest became utterly silent.

A few members of an outdoor enthusiasts group invited the group to travel in a motorhome to a special tourist attraction.

Streaks of light trailing red flames rose from the distance, hitting the sky before exploding into a cluster of colorful fireworks.

The ever-blooming, colorful fireworks illuminated the surrounding night sky.

"So beautiful!"

"All the fireworks are clearly visible!"

On the rooftop terrace of the circular road, illuminated by dim light, several children ran out of the car and looked excitedly at the bursting flowers in the sky.

"It must be a fireworks festival, right?"

Ai Haibara looked at the brightly lit city under the fireworks. "I remember the news said there was a big summer festival nearby, these conversations must have been played by the organizers..."

Fujino followed behind and glanced at the scene. "After all, summer vacation is almost over. If we don't take advantage of this time to attract tourists, we'll have to wait until next year when students and university students start school."

"But this is really a great place to watch fireworks."

Professor Agasa adjusted his glasses and put his hands behind his back. "I can see the shapes of fireworks all over the sky very well."

"Yes, we discovered it by chance when we came here four years ago."

Reiji was driving, parked the car and followed. "We came because we heard about the fireworks event. We're graduating soon, and this is probably the last time we'll come before we find jobs."

As he spoke, he put his hand on the shoulder of Tendo Haruka standing next to him. "Am I right?"

"Yes."

Tendo Haruka took a half step back and coldly echoed, "This is indeed the last time I'll come here."

"???"

Fukuura Reiji stared blankly at his empty hand, realizing that his girlfriend's attitude towards him seemed to be growing colder and colder.

Although he has indeed been deliberately distancing himself recently, normally he wouldn't refuse to even put his hand on someone's.

But thinking about it carefully, it seems that her attitude only changed so obviously after she came back from the woods with that man...

Thinking of this, Fukuura Reiji's expression became strange. Suddenly, he felt that the green light above his head was even more luxuriant, and he even had the illusion of it glowing.

"..."

Tendo Haruka glanced at Fukuura Reiji, who had a strange expression on his face, but didn't say anything. She turned back to continue watching the fireworks.

She definitely wouldn't have done this before.

But ever since she found out that the other person was only with her for money and was planning to drain her dry with other people...

She instinctively felt a sense of disgust towards this man.

She only pretended to be affectionate because of the Murder Plan.

However, now that she has given up the idea of killing, she naturally won't continue to pretend...

Especially after being enlightened by that detective, she felt even more disgusted that she was still the girlfriend of such a person.

She couldn't help but wonder if she had been out of her mind to date such a hoodlum.

"Whoosh—boom!"

A white dot of light, trailing a shimmering yellow tail, soared into the night sky.

With a loud explosion, a huge cluster of flowers bloomed in the sky.

The exploding fireworks fell in all directions, resembling a giant sky tree in the sky...

Ayumi watched the falling fireworks, looking like she wanted more. "It felt like it was over in the blink of an eye."

Fireworks are fleeting.

Ai Haibara stood to the side, watching the trailing tail fall. "A brief bloom, then quickly disappearing into the night."

"After all, fireworks fade quickly."

Fujino looked up at the night sky, which had returned to calm, and chuckled softly, "But the most important thing is the precious memories it left behind. As long as people remember its moment of brilliance, it will never disappear."

"Yes, a short but precious memory."

Ai Haibara looked up at the night sky where stars were faintly twinkling, her eyes seemingly reflecting specks of fireworks.

Early the next morning.

Tendo Haruka stood beside the campervan, glanced coldly at Fukuura Reiji, and said in a deep voice, "Let's break up."

The three people, who had just gotten up, were completely bewildered when they were summoned to the camper van.

Coming to his senses, Fukuura Reiji's expression darkened upon hearing this. "Haruka, what do you mean by this?"

"It doesn't mean anything, I just want to break up."

Tendo Haruka turned around, opened the door of the van, walked up, and called out to the driver, "Fujino, drive!"

"Are you kidding me?"

At that moment, Fukuura Reiji rushed up and grabbed Tendo Haruka's arm. "What exactly do you mean? Explain yourself clearly. Are you dating that pretty boy named Fujino?"

"Yes, yes! Weren't you two fine yesterday?"

Shirafuji Taimi chimed in from behind, "Are you really going to abandon Reiji just because you're attracted to that pretty boy's looks and you slept with him once?"

Fujino: "...?"

Hey, do I look that much like Cao Thief?!

I'm Pure Love Warrior, okay?

What does it mean to take a nap?

Be careful, or I'll sue you for defamation!

"Good friend?"

Tendo Haruka scoffed lightly. "I consider you all good friends, but you've never considered me a good friend."

What exactly do you mean?

"Don't you understand what I mean?"

Tendo Haruka glanced at the group and said, "I heard everything you said earlier."
