"Shin-chan!" Yukiko hugged Conan as soon as he came inside the house.
"Mom...let go. Where's Dad?" Conan said while her mother tightened her embrace. "He's at the study", Subaru said as he came out to get Yukiko to ask for a taste test on his cooking.
Conan nodded and went straight to the study.
...
"Dad...", he said. The man sitting at the desk in the middle of the room looked up at him.
"6 years ago...Aine-neesan...she died...right?" He said, watching his Dad's reaction.
"...yeah...she did. She drove in the middle of the night, crashed and fell through the cliff...it was...an accident." Kudo Yusaku said.
Conan bit his lip, "you know it's not true, it's not an accident, is it? And I'm sure that you already know the truth, why hide it? Why would you let them get away with it?"
Kudo Yusaku closed his book and sighed, "she's an undercover agent from PSB...I'm sure that you know what will happen if her identity is exposed. She already told me beforehand, no matter what happens, I will handle her case and declare that it's an accident. Don't ever underestimate her resolve...but please, keep this a secret from your Mom, she doesn't know anything about Aine's job."
Conan silently agreed and went out of the room with heavy shoulders.
Being alone in the room, Yusaku sighed but there was a slight relief about it.
"That was close...I thought he figured it out. She chose this path, leaving everything behind. Aine is the type who would give up anything for what she thinks is right. I do pity that guy though. Never underestimate her resolve, Shinichi." Yusaku whispered and went back to reading his book.
~8 years ago~
"Shin-chan...say hi, this is my cousin's daughter, in short she's your cousin, Fujimine Aine." Yukiko said, Shinichi who was 9 years old at that time looked at the woman beside her mother. She was blond, both her eyes and smile were bright, Shinichi thought that she was very beautiful.
"You're the culprit!" Shinichi said, pointing at Aine. She laughed, "I'm Fujimine Aine, catch me if you can, great detective".
~Present~
"Hey...", Ai said, in front of her was a red haired woman sipping her tea, she blinked and answered, "..why?"
"...my sister...how was she? What did she say...about me?" Ai said while looking down.
Luna placed her teacup down and sighed.
"She was very beautiful...inside and out, but was kinda naive if I said so myself. A woman who would choose to be ignorant than to let the man she loves get caught. She's a very dumb woman. And she talks too much, about you and your family. Shiho...that might've been her favorite word. You're her precious little sister, and hearing all her stories, I feel like you're my sister as well. You're very precious Shiho, both me and Akemi will always love you as our sister." She said while reminiscing about the past.
Ai took a sip of her drink and smiled. Luna's eyes widened and giggled with her.
...
"You look happy...and distracted. I told you to not bother about small things. Luna...", a voice said white looking at the woman across the table.
Luna Noir looked up at the person in front of her. "I am not. Just thinking about something...", she said and continued eating.
The man looked at her and sighed.
After the meal, Luna headed to the door and immediately left the place, her companion whispered something, "I have known...the moment I saw you...I knew that you were the one that could and would end me."
