People in Detective Conan are going crazy over the comments section.

Chapter 248 Good heavens! Why are they starting again?!

"Everyone's here! Perfect timing, let's play a guessing game to pass the time!"

Seeing that the three children seemed to have already discussed what to do next, Professor Agasa came over with Conan, Ai Haibara, and Akemi Miyano who was with them.

"Eh?"

"here we go again!"

"The doctor's riddles are both cold and boring."

Hearing Ayumi and the others say this, Akemi Miyano, who had never heard of the professor's riddle before, suddenly became interested, so she reassured them by saying:

"I think this must have taken a lot of effort from the professor to come up with it. Let's all guess together."

After Mingmei said that, the three little ones reluctantly agreed and prepared to carry out their plan after solving the riddle.

[Here it comes! My favorite part – the rice cracker riddle game!]

Although I basically couldn't understand it.

[Professor Agasa is a master of riddles.]

"Cough cough!"

"Mr. A, who works at a video game company, couldn't resist the temptation at work and became addicted to Cocoon Games. What did the chairman do to Mr. A when he saw this?"

"One: He made it to the last level, so he was praised."

Second: He was fired because he played during work hours.

Thirdly, because he was sleeping soundly in the cocoon, we let him continue sleeping.

As soon as the riddle was finished, Ayumi immediately raised three fingers and excitedly replied, "The answer is three, let him continue sleeping."

Ayumi answered so quickly, but the professor just smiled and asked why.

"Because the cocoon looks a lot like a cradle!"

"wrong."

“Then I think it’s a compliment,” Mitsuhiko added immediately.

"That's not right either."

If that's the case, then the answer is two.

"Then the answer is two. Why?" Genta asked, puzzled.

Akemi Miyano listened attentively to everything, her mind racing, but she had no clue why the answer was two.

So she squatted down next to her younger sister, smiled, and asked her, "Ai, do you know why?"

When her sister came to ask her a question, Ai Haibara, contrary to her usual behavior, covered her face with her hands. "I'm wearing less today, so you should let Edogawa answer your question."

Upon hearing this, Conan's lips twitched slightly, and he stared at Ai Haibara with eyes as lifeless as a dead fish.

"The cocoon refers to the silkworm, and spinning silk to form a cocoon refers to the silkworm. In other words, it means to fire someone." (Note: In Japanese, the words for silkworm and fire someone are homophones.)

"Absolutely correct!" As soon as Professor Agasa finished speaking, he realized that it wasn't Conan who had just answered the question.

"Boss! You're back!"

Akemi looked back and saw Asakawa Yu standing behind her; he was the one who had just answered the question.

"Yes, I could have come down much earlier, but I was surrounded by some people and couldn't get out, which delayed me a bit."

After finishing his speech, Asakawa Yu intended to go straight back to Akemi and the others, but as soon as he stepped off the stage, he was surrounded by some people who looked like upper-class people.

A large portion of them wanted to befriend Asakawa Yu and make a name for themselves, but Asakawa Yu couldn't be sure what the other group of young ladies' intentions were.

Sniff!

Akemi helped Asakawa Yu straighten her collar, but her keen intuition told her something was wrong. Moreover, she smelled something unusual on Asakawa Yu—it was… perfume!

In an instant, Akemi's gaze towards Asakawa Yu began to change.

"Just now, was there a woman leaning against you?"

[Wow! Caught in the act, huh? How exciting!]

[Hahaha, Asakawa, Asakawa, you've finally met your match, hahaha!]

[What are you laughing at, upstairs? He has a girlfriend, do you? Why are you laughing like that?]

[The defense has been breached, please delete.]

As a result, even Ai Haibara's gaze towards Yu Asakawa began to become suspicious.

Asakawa Yu gave a wry smile. He knew that Akemi must know his character, but she said that because she felt uneasy after seeing this scene.

"It must have been accidentally posted here by some people. They came up and asked for my contact information, but I didn't give it to them."

"That's good. You're mine, and I can't let those vixens steal you away!"

Akemi stood on tiptoe, put her hands behind her back, brought her face close to Asakawa Yu's eyes, and pretended to look at him fiercely.

"Heh, when it comes to men, who knows if he's lying to you or not." Ai Haibara said with a tone that seemed to enjoy watching the drama unfold, which made Conan's lips twitch.

Please, if you want to criticize someone, criticize them directly. Can you please stop making sweeping generalizations?

"By the way, boss, are we really going to participate in that game later?"

Akemi took out the badge that Professor Agasa had just handed her and asked Asakawa Yu with a puzzled look.

"Don't you want to go?" Asakawa Yu asked back. If Akemi didn't like this kind of game, he wouldn't force her to go with him.

Mingmei shook her head. "No, it's just that I feel like you, boss, don't just want to play games as simply as that."

The next sentence was whispered by Akemi into Asakawa Hare's ear, so the others naturally couldn't hear it clearly.

In their eyes, this scene looked like Akemi was being coquettish with Asakawa Yu.

But Asakawa Yu had to admit that Akemi's keen senses had exceeded his expectations.

But thinking about it, it makes sense. Having been by her side for so long, Akemi already had a basic understanding of him, so it wasn't surprising that she could guess this.

"Indeed, I have some things to take care of when I enter the game this time. If you don't like it, then..."

"I also need to go!"

"Ok?"

Akemi's sudden words interrupted Asakawa Yu, who looked at her with a puzzled expression.

"Why are you suddenly saying that again? You didn't pay me back just now..."

Akemi shook her head, her tone gentle yet firm, and said:

"So I don't know what kind of problem you're facing, but in a time like this, as your girlfriend, shouldn't I stand by your side even more?"

“And…” Akemi smiled slightly, “Who said I’m not interested in games, especially since you were involved in making one.”

Looking at Akemi's increasingly gentle smile, Asakawa Yu felt only relief and good fortune.

He looked at Mingmei with gentle eyes, and wrapped his arms around her waist with a little force. "Meeting you is my greatest fortune."

These simple, plain words of love made Mingmei blush and stammer, unable to speak.

"Oh my god! Why are they doing this again..."
