Seeing that Naodo was taken away by the police, everyone from the Department of Medicine of Rice Flower University who was present woke up from today's nightmare in a trance, and the saddest person among them was Watanabe Yoshimi.

Today is the annual Valentine's Day, and Watanabe, who was supposed to be happy because the boy he liked, accepted the chocolate he gave him, but witnessed the death of his beloved in front of his eyes, and the great sorrow and joy of life are nothing more than this.

Therefore, looking at the sad Watanabe so beautiful, Takato refused to accept the commission fee this time, and then said goodbye abruptly - knowing that Katsuhiko Minagawa might be in danger today, but he still let the murderer succeed, In this regard, Takato really had no shame to accept the commission fee.

As the sun set, in the park near the 4-chome, Takato, Gray Hara, Moriran, Conan, Ayumi and others who left the Minagawa family walked here, and Sonoko Suzuki was very sad and went home early.

Looking at the sunset on the horizon, Mao Lilan couldn't help but feel a little melancholy:

"It was supposed to be a happy Valentine's Day, but I didn't expect it to be such a sad day."

Saying this, Mao Lilan took out the chocolate in his arms and muttered to himself a little dazedly:

"What should I do with this chocolate?"

Thinking about it, Mao Lilan's gaze looked at Gao Yuan on the side-

"Miss Xiaolan!"

Suddenly, Wakamatsu Toshihide's voice came from behind everyone, and when he looked back, he saw Wakamatsu Toshihide, who was burly and wearing a red vest, ran to Mao Lilan with a smile on his face and said:

"So you're here? Ah, just say it, and I'll send you home! ”

"Ah...... No, thank you. ”

Faced with Wakamatsu Toshihide's enthusiasm, Mao Lilan couldn't help but refuse.

"Ahh That chocolate! ”

Wakamatsu Toshihide didn't seem to hear Mao Lilan's refusal, but saw the chocolate in Mao Lilan's hand, and couldn't help but say with an expectant face:

"Are you going to give it to me?"

"Not ......"

Without waiting for Moriran to deny it, Wakamatsu Toshihide took the chocolate from Moriran and said with a happy face:

"Thank you so much! I'm so impressed! ”

Seeing this, Mao Lilan's patience with Wakamatsu Toshihide had reached the limit, and an angry punch swept past Wakamatsu Toshihide's face, bringing up a gust of fist wind, and then smashed on the trunk behind Wakamatsu Toshihide, and the surface of the trunk was suddenly punched out-

"Really! Please don't make a mistake, okay! ”

Roughly, Moriran shouted at Wakamatsu Toshihide.

And Wakamatsu Toshihide was obviously frightened by that just now-

"I'm sorry! Excuse me! ”

Frightened, Wakamatsu Toshihide dropped Moriran's chocolate and fled in a hurry.

Gao Yuan on the side, witnessing the scene just now, couldn't help but shake his head helplessly - this guy, he shouldn't be cheeky enough to harass Mao Lilan in the future.

Thinking so, I saw Mao Lilan take back the chocolate, walked up to Gao Yuan solemnly, handed the chocolate over, and then said seriously:

"Mr. Wise, I have done many things thanks to your help before, and I don't know how to thank you. This right should be righteous, please accept it! ”

Seeing this, both the party Gao Yuan and Conan beside him couldn't help but be a little dumbfounded, while Gray Yuan Ai seemed to walk away a few steps angrily, and came behind Gao Yuan, with his back to Gao Yuan.

However, seeing that Mao Lilan took the initiative to give away the chocolate, Ayumi was still a little hesitant, but also took out the chocolate, walked up to Conan, and handed the chocolate over-

"Conan, please take it!"

In this regard, Conan, who was already a little dumbfounded, became even more overwhelmed.

At this time, Gao Yuan looked at the box of chocolates, with a note with the words "Shinichi" written on it, so Gao Yuan, who was originally at a loss, couldn't help but show a faint smile and sighed-

"No, Maori-san. I can't accept a chocolate that I think was given to me. Also, if I accept this box of chocolates, Kudo-san might be angry! ”

As he spoke, Gao Yuan pointed to the note that was still holding the chocolate in Mao Lilan's hand.

At this time, Mao Lilan suddenly remembered that after making chocolate last night, he had attached a note to it, and he couldn't help blushing shyly for a while, and took the chocolate back.

"And, compared to me, it might be better to give it to this child! After all, he's brave enough to protect you today! I think Kudo-san will understand if he gives it to him. ”

Gao Yuan added.

Gu Yi

After hearing this, Gray Yuan Ai silently walked back to Gao Yuan's side, as if relieved, opened his eyes, and looked at Conan who was a little embarrassed on the side.

And Mao Lilan also looked at Conan who Gao Yuan was referring to, and when he saw the scene of Ayumi giving Conan chocolate, he was originally a little irritable, and he couldn't help but feel a little relieved, and then smiled-

"Oops, great, yes conan! You've got a lovely girlfriend! ”

"Ahh Wait a minute! Sister Xiaolan, no! ”

Hearing Mao Lilan say this, Conan couldn't help but explain in a panic.

"You're shy! It's so cute! ”

Looking at Conan, who was blushing a little, Mao Lilan smiled, then looked at Ayumi and smiled and said:

"But, little sister, it's too early for you to give chocolates at this age! After all, Valentine's Day is a day when girls get the courage to love from chocolate and compile important memories, so chocolate is sweet and bitter. ”

"Huh? Is that so? ”

Hearing Mao Lilan's words, Ayumi said as if she didn't understand, and then looked at the chocolate in her hand, a little dazed.

"That's right!"

Maolilan seemed to think of something, took off the note on his chocolate and put it away, then unpacked it, broke the chocolate, and said to everyone:

"Why don't we eat chocolate together? Use the taste of chocolate to wash away today's unpleasantness! ”

Hearing this, Ayumi also thought about it carefully, and also opened her chocolate and shared it with everyone.

So, the originally somewhat dull atmosphere was dissolved in the sweetness of chocolate-

"By the way, Mr. Akechi, you seem to have been calling me and Shinichi, 'Maori-san', 'Kudo-san' and the like, and I always feel a little too foreign. Actually, it's good if you just call us by our names, otherwise we will always feel like we have just met. ”

When I thought of Wakamatsu Toshixiu, who had only known each other for a short time, he directly called himself "Miss Xiaolan" and "Miss Xiaolan", Gao Yuan, who had known him for so long and had a good relationship, seemed to feel too distant.

Hearing Maolilan say this, Gao Yuan, who was giving all the chocolates he got from Maolilan, couldn't help but be a little surprised-

"Is that so? I'm sorry, Miss Lan, but I'm probably taking this a little too seriously. ”

After all, Takato has always maintained the habit of learning Japanese, and he is used to calling each other by his surname to show respect when greeting him normally, so Takato has always called others like this.

But now that Mao Lilan has said so, it's time for him to change his words, which can be regarded as a step closer to the relationship between Gao Yuan and the original characters.

In this regard, Conan, who was happily eating chocolate, also agreed with Maolilan's statement.

And Gray Yuan was silently eating chocolate, thinking back to the time when he and Takato had a separate conversation, and seemed to have a similar feeling. However, compared to addressing them, when Gao Yuan called himself, although he was addressed by his surname, he was different from Maolilan, and did not add the ceremonial title of "SA N" after his surname.

In this regard, Gray Yuan couldn't help but stretch out his right hand wearing a "lover" and brushed his sideburns, looking a little happy.

……

In the evening, when he returned home, he had already had dinner out together, and Gray Yuan Wai returned to his room first, while Gao Yuan stayed in the living room for a while before returning to his bedroom.

When I walked into the bedroom, turned on the light, and saw it from afar, I immediately caught the gift of the colorful ribbon that should not have existed, but now it was placed on the bedside table next to my bed-

The only people who can put things here should be......

Thinking like this, Gao Yuan thoughtfully came to the door of the bedroom, looked in the direction of Gray Yuan's room, and then curiously walked to the bedside table and picked up the gift-

It's chocolate!

Through the tin foil, feeling the touch of what was inside, Takato already understood what it was.

couldn't help but feel warm in Gao Yuan's heart, and he was a little excited, but then a trace of moving tears overflowed from the corners of his eyes-

It's the first time in my life!

From childhood to adulthood, it is the first time in my 20 years of life that I have received such a gift!

Thinking like this, full of anticipation, Gao Yuan carefully opened the package, looked at the pure black chocolate inside, happily broke a piece, and put it in his mouth-

Rich bitterness, dark chocolate without sugar......

This smell seems to be a little familiar.

There is no cardboard, which is the so-called Yili chocolate......

But next month, what should I give in return?
