Ke Xue: Ai-chan and I have an agreement

There were many exquisite dishes on the dining table.

These dishes not only exude an enticing aroma, but also show off their excellent appearance, which makes people's appetites grow at just one glance.

Especially the plate of sweet and sour pork tenderloin placed in the center, which is bright red and juicy, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. The sweet and sour taste seems to pass through the air into people's nasal cavity, stimulating the taste buds, and people can't help swallowing their saliva just by looking at it.

However, Shiina Yuichi and Haibara Ai sat at the table and fell into silence at the same time.

There was a hint of danger in Haibara Ai's eyes, and she glanced at Shiina Yuichi expressionlessly.

This guy must have taught Mao Lilan other skills!

Absolutely!

Faced with such gazes, Shiina Yuichi felt very helpless.

He secretly groaned in his heart because he never expected that Mao Lilan was so talented in cooking.

I just gave a few casual instructions and Mao Lilan was able to understand and easily make this delicious-looking sweet and sour pork.

She is simply the reincarnation of the God of Cooking.

When Yuichi Shiina was learning how to cook this dish, Anxia was extremely disgusted.

Because the sweet and sour pork he made is similar to the one made by Haibara Ai.

In fact, Shiina Yuichi knew something about Mao Lilan's cooking skills.

This experience made him realize that Mao Lilan also had extraordinary talent in cooking.

Perhaps, we should give her more opportunities to show her talents in the future. Maybe she can become a good chef?

Of course, this also depends on Mao Lilan's own wishes.

At the same time, a complex emotion surged in Haibara Ai's heart.

On the one hand, she was surprised by Mao Lilan's outstanding performance, but on the other hand, she felt a little disappointed because of her own shortcomings in this area.

However, she would not give in easily, but secretly made up her mind to work hard to improve her cooking skills.

When she was in the organization, she didn't have as much time as Mao Lilan to study how to make better food.

But now, she has plenty of time...

"What's wrong?"

Seeing that several people were not eating, Mao Lilan couldn't help but ask, "Is there any dish you don't like?"

Emm...compared to this, everyone should be more surprised.

How did Mao Lilan manage to prepare six dishes and one soup in such a short time?

Shiina Yuichi smiled and broke the silence, "Well, stop looking and try it! I believe that Xiaolan's dishes will not disappoint us."

After saying that, he took the lead in picking up a piece and putting it in his mouth, savoring the wonderful taste.

Seeing this, Huihara Ai also took a bite. Suddenly, the sweet and sour taste spread on her tongue, making her smile with satisfaction.

Although she was still a little unconvinced in her heart, she had to admit that Mao Lilan had indeed successfully grasped the essence of this dish.

Dr. Agasa and Kudo Shinichi are just two greedy cats!

Apart from praising Mao Lilan's superb cooking skills, they could not think of any other words.

However, I have to admit that this was indeed a lunch worth remembering.

At the table, everyone was eating and chatting, and the atmosphere was extremely harmonious.

After lunch, Yuichi Shiina looked at the time and decided to leave.

At the same time, Haibara Ai also entered the underground laboratory for the temporary antidote.

When Yuichi Shiina changed his shoes at the door, he suddenly heard a slight sound of footsteps behind him.

"Is it Xiaolan?" Shiina Yuichi didn't turn around, but asked directly.

In fact, during the cooking process, he had already noticed that Mao Lilan seemed to have something to say to him, but she just didn't open her mouth.

"Well...it's me, Yuichi-nii." Mouri Ran stood behind Shiina Yuichi and responded softly.

Her expression looked quite complicated, as if she was struggling with something.

Hearing the hesitation in the girl's words, Shiina Yuichi sighed and said, "You should have known it from him."

"Yes... Shinichi...he told me everything."

"I said, no matter what decision you make, I will support you." Shiina Yuichi turned around with a smile on his face.

Ran Mouri looked at Yuichi Shiina, opened her mouth, and couldn't say anything for a long time.

To be honest, she didn't know how to face Shiina Yuichi.

Just last night, Kudo Shinichi told Mouri Ran everything without reservation about how he was poisoned by the Black Organization, turned into Conan, and everything that happened afterwards.

This also includes the true identities of Yuichi Shiina and Ai Haibara.

After learning the truth, Mao Lilan was greatly shocked and could not accept this reality for a short period of time.

So, she suffered from insomnia and tossed and turned in bed all night, unable to fall asleep.

She spent the whole night recalling every moment she spent with Shiina Yuichi.

Compared to Shiina Yuichi's terrifying identity, what came to her mind more was the look of him getting injured while saving her, and the look on his face when he was angry at Huihara Ai...

Ran Mouri had to admit that perhaps she had never really understood what kind of person Yuichi Shiina was.

However, what she could be sure of was that the gentleness that was revealed inadvertently was definitely not a disguise.

Yuichi Shiina has always taken good care of her, and Sonoko, Kazuha and the others don't think that Yuichi is a hateful person.

"Brother Yuichi, I..." Ran Mouri was about to say something.

The next second, a big, broad, warm hand gently touched her head.

This hand, filled with endless tenderness and care, made Mao Lilan feel an unprecedented sense of security.

"Don't worry, Xiaolan. From the moment you were willing to cook for me, I already knew...I will always treat you as my sister."

Shiina Yuichi's voice was low and gentle.

Mao Lilan listened quietly, feeling an indescribable emotion in her heart.

She raised her head and looked into Shiina Yuichi's deep eyes, with tears glistening in them.

Shiina Yuichi's words were full of sincerity and kindness.

"So, when you are ready, tell me your answer."

Shiina Yuichi said to her with a smile as bright as the sun.

"Well, I should go now."

Shiina Yuichi smiled, then turned and left without looking back.

Mao Lilan looked at his receding back, feeling mixed emotions.

"Shinichi, is this okay?"

In the living room, Kudo Shinichi and Dr. Agasa watched the scene happening at the door.

"This is my decision, I'm sorry, Doctor." Kudo Shinichi sighed.

Dr. Agasa shook his head. "Come to think of it, I asked you to hide your identity... maybe it's right to tell the truth."

The two looked at Ran Mouri's back, and each had their own emotions in their hearts.
