…
Haibara Ai knew that Conan took a day leave again because he was following the case from yesterday. She had heard from Conan that Professor Kagami couldn't be reached and was not present, but she didn't dare to go on her own.
Because Professor Kagami and his students had seen her appearance when she was younger.
What if he recognized her?
So she stayed behind.
However, Conan hadn't sent her anything new about the case.
After saying goodbye to Ayumi and the others, Haibara Ai was planning on going back home when she saw a familiar car parked on the side of the road after turning the corner. Moreover, she saw Gin and Vodka walking out of the car.
Haibara Ai's body was completely frozen in fear.
She was trembling, thinking about what she should do if Gin recognized her.
Suddenly, someone picked her up and draped a jacket around her. Haibara Ai was stunned and saw Hikari Yuki's face near her and was so shocked. Especially when she saw Hikari Yuki held her close to the other party and the jacket completely covered Haibara Ai's small body.
"Don't worry, everything will be fine," Hikari Yuki whispered in a low voice.
She could sense Haibara Ai's body trembling in fear, but Hikari Yuki couldn't do anything about it. She knew very well that Gin's presence is Ai's greatest nightmare.
Well, he's also Conan's nightmare.
But in any case, Hikari Yuki had strengthened her psychological pressure skill to the maximum, allowing her to stay calm no matter how dangerous the situation is. So even if she knew that she would die, she would still look and appear calm on the surface.
"Pretend to sleep."
Haibara Ai was stunned and then closed her eyes and leaned towards Hikari Yuki's body, looking like a child who was sleeping.
"What are you doing here with a child, Sake?" Gin saw Hikari Yuki walking with a child on her arm and felt disgusted.
This woman often appeared as a man in the bar and when she was outside, she would dress up as a woman and look like an innocent girl.
It was disgusting.
"S…Sake?" Vodka looked shocked.
This girl really Sake?
But isn't Sake a boy?
"Ssh… Don't disturb the sleeping girl, Gin." Hikari Yuki's voice was soothing at the beginning and turned chilling cold at the rest of the sentence. She sounded like a completely different person even when all she did was saying one sentence.
Gin frowned. "So, what are you doing?"
"Can't you see? Being a kind neighbour." Hikari Yuki smiled sweetly, yet her voice was chilling cold. "Isn't it fun to see their psychological defense collapse when they think that they're seeing an ordinary and kind girl but in fact she's a murderer?"
