Detective Conan: Orange-flavored summer

"Oh! This is the first time that Chinatsu sees you wearing a skirt." Huihara Shimi looked at Shangguan Chinatsu in surprise, who was wearing a simple dress.

The skirt is a light beige color without any complicated decorations. Only a few simple lines outline the contours of the skirt. The hem just reaches the knees, which is neither too conservative nor too ostentatious, and perfectly shows off her graceful leg lines.

Shangguan Chinatsu gently adjusted the hem of her skirt, smiled at Huihara Shimi, and said, "I'm going to do something very meaningful today." Her tone was full of relaxation and joy.

At this time, there were tiny footsteps coming from the stairwell. Huiyuan Ai walked down from upstairs. She was wearing a sleeveless blue dress. The hem of her dress swayed gently with her steps, like ripples on the lake. Her eyes fell gently on Shangguan Qianxia. She used her hands to tidy up the hair by her ears. Her eyes curved and she smiled and said, "Are you ready?"

Huihara Shimi stood aside, her eyes moving between the two of them, with a barely perceptible scrutiny. She looked at the two of them with a puzzled expression and said, "What are you two going to do?"

"Sister, of course I want to do that one meaningful thing with Chinatsu!"

After hearing this, Huiyuan Shimi became even more curious. She looked at Huiyuan Ai puzzledly and said, "What is it? Can I take my sister with me?"

"Da meyo, sister, you should just stay at home and watch TV." Haibara Ai shook her head and refused without hesitation.

Huihara Shimi pretended to cry, covered her face with her hands, and sobbed, "Ai only likes Chinatsu and not her sister anymore. I'm so sad."

Haibara Ai looked at her sister in a daze. She didn't expect her sister's sixth sense to be so accurate and she got it right the moment she said it.

Shangguan Qianxia also looked at Huihara Shimi in surprise. After she was sure that she was just talking casually, she breathed a sigh of relief. After all, she was the one who took away her little cabbage.

Haibara Ai said secretly in her heart, Sister, you don’t know that I not only like Chinatsu, but I also took her away.

When she didn't get a response, Huiyuan Shimi stopped pretending to cry. She looked at the two of them, smiled and said, "Will you come back for lunch?"

"We won't be back for lunch or dinner." Shangguan Qianxia said, shaking her head.

"I'm really getting more and more curious about what you are going to do, but since that's the case then you just have to have fun." Huihara Shimi looked at the two of them and said with a gentle smile.

"Okay, Sister Zhimei, let's go out."

"Goodbye sister."

Huihara Shimi waved her hands, with a bright smile on her face, and said, "Okay, you guys have fun!"

Although she felt that these two people were acting strange today, she didn't think much about it and watched them leave.

Yay! I can cook one less lunch and dinner for two people. Huihara Shimi hummed a little tune and walked to the living room. She first turned on the TV, then walked happily to the refrigerator and took out a bottle of juice.

She opened the cabinet next to her, took out a large bag of snacks, hummed a little tune happily, and sat back on the sofa.

……

"I didn't expect that you can wear a skirt." Haibara Ai said with a surprised smile.

When Shangguan Qianxia heard this, she lowered her head and looked at Huiyuan Ai, with the corners of her mouth slightly raised and her eyebrows curved as she said, "Because today is very important!"

After saying that, she bent down and stretched out her hand to Huibara Ai. The corners of her mouth raised, revealing her white teeth, and her eyes were shining.

Haibara Ai held Shangguan Chinatsu's hand, interlocked her fingers, and then turned it into a handshake.

Shangguan Qianxia showed a regretful expression on her face, and said with a regretful tone: "It's a pity, Xiaoai, you are not tall enough, so we can only hold hands."

"Hmph, tell me, where are we going today?" Huibara Ai snorted in dissatisfaction, and then she asked.

Shangguan Qianxia straightened her back, took Huihara Ai's hand and walked forward, announcing with a smile as she walked: "First stop... the aquarium!"

……

"Hey, the tickets are bought. Let me guess what you want to see." Shangguan Chinatsu handed the ticket in her hand to Haibara Ai, and said thoughtfully while touching her chin.

Huibara Ai reached out to take the ticket, looked at Shangguan Chinatsu curiously, and said nothing. She wanted to see what she would guess.

"Dolphins? Or penguins? Or watch from beginning to end?"

"You can only guess one." Haibara Ai looked at Shangguan Chinatsu and said playfully.

"Ah? Okay, then I guess you...like dolphins!"

"Bindong, the answer... is wrong." Huibara Ai stretched out her hand, raised an index finger and shook it left and right, she said with a smile.

"So what do you like? Penguins? Seals? Or fish?" Shangguan Qianxia asked a series of questions.

Huihara smiled with an ambiguous look on her face. She hooked her finger at Shangguan Chinatsu, signaling her to squat down.

"What's wrong?" Although confused, Shangguan Qianxia still squatted down.

There was a glimmer of cunning in Haibara Ai's eyes. She moved her feet gently, getting closer to her. Haibara Ai leaned close to her ear and whispered softly.

"I like you better than the animals in the aquarium."

Shangguan Qianxia’s eyes widened, smoke came out of her head, her ears turned red, and her whole body looked like it was on fire.

"Oh, you were very brave when you kissed me for the first time. Why are you shy now?" Huibara teased with a sad smile.

"Who told you to say I'm a coward?" Shangguan Qianxia muttered in dissatisfaction.

Then, she stood up, looked around, and continued, "Hurry up, maybe there will be more people later."

The smile on Huibara Ai's face became even wider. She liked the shy Shangguan Chinatsu more than the usual one.

"Wow, let's watch it from the beginning to the end."

"Hurry up, you short legs." Shangguan Qianxia urged.

"Go ahead, coward." Huibara Ai was not angry because Shangguan Chinatsu said she had short legs. After all, she was originally 170cm tall.

As Shangguan Chinatsu and Huihara Ai stepped into the aquarium, the surrounding light began to gradually dim, creating a feeling of getting better.

As they continued to move forward, the light became softer, as if night had fallen on the underwater world. The lights on the ceiling became sparse, leaving only a few faint points of light, simulating the twinkling of stars in the night sky.

"Ai, do you know what this is?" Shangguan Chinatsu pointed at the seahorse-like creature outside the glass and said to Haibara Ai with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Huiyuan Ai looked in the direction Shangguan Qianxia pointed. She chuckled and explained, "Fish, although its appearance is different from common fish, it is also an animal that breathes with gills and relies on fins to move in the water."

"Ah, ah, I thought Xiao Ai didn't understand."

When Huihara Ai heard this, she snorted. She raised her chin and said disdainfully: "That's it? I'm a doctor after all, how could this be difficult for me!"

(There is no case today, because this is a chapter dedicated to Xia and Ai.)
