In the early morning, Senichi slowly woke up from his dreams.
The warm and jade-like touch still lingered on his palm, causing him to involuntarily narrow his eyes.
Golden sunlight sneakily penetrated through the gaps in the curtains, casting a faint golden glow on Ayako's sleeping face like carefully applied makeup, creating a beautiful scene.
Seemingly sensing Senichi's movements, Ayako's eyelashes trembled slightly, indicating that she was about to wake up.
She hazily opened her eyes, and the first thing she saw was Senichi's smiling face.
"Morning," Ayako mumbled in a daze.
"Morning," Senichi saw that Ayako seemed like she wanted to go back to sleep, so he leaned in a bit closer to embrace her.
However, before Senichi could get closer, Ayako suddenly opened her eyes.
"What's wrong?" Senichi was taken aback by Ayako's abrupt opening of her eyes, and looked at the angry look in her eyes and asked strangely.
"Hair."
"What?" Senichi, feeling a bit puzzled, touched his head. "What's wrong with my hair?"
"You're pressing on my hair." Ayako reached out and pulled out the hair that Senichi had pressed down. Senichi raised his body slightly to help Ayako.
Senichi forgot where he had seen it in his previous life, but it was said that what men and women said to each other in bed wasn't "good morning" or "I love you" but rather "hair."
At that time, Senichi was a bit confused while looking at the netizens comments, but today's scene made him seem to understand a bit.
It seemed that in the future, this word would indeed accompany the two of them closely.
"I'll go make breakfast. Do you want to sleep a bit more?" Senichi asked awkwardly while smiling and got up at the same time.
"I won't sleep anymore. The last bit of drowsiness is gone." Ayako also got up, adjusted her sleepwear, and said, "Aren't you planning to take the kids to see Kamen Yaiba today? Should I go with you?"
"No need, no need." Senichi waved his hand. "Going to a place like that with kids is a bit of a waste of time for adults. I promised them because they helped out, there's no need for you to come along too.
And after taking them there, I'll find a quiet place nearby to write a book. There's no need for you to come along with me.
Moreover, it'll take about four hours, starting around one, and ending around four. How about we go out for a stroll together after that?"
"Umm... then I think I'll go to the company." Ayako thought for a moment and said, "I haven't been there for a few days. It's a good time to take care of some business."
"Yeah, that works. I'll call you when the time comes." Senichi got out of bed and started grooming. After the two of them had breakfast, they went shopping together to buy ingredients for the next few days.
Since they had just moved in, the food in their home was mostly empty, so they naturally needed to do a major grocery shopping.
Vegetables, chicken, pork, beef... drinks, snacks... They practically bought everything they wanted to eat, and the two of them then went into the underground parking lot with bags in hand.
After making a "couple's meal" together, Senichi bid farewell to Ayako and drove towards the venue of the live-action show of Kamen Yaiba.
Upon arrival, the little ones had already gathered together. Most of them seemed to have been brought by their parents, and Dr. Agasa probably stayed here to look after the kids after dropping off Conan and Haibara.
"Thank you, Doctor." Senichi said with a smile after parking the car. "I'll take it from here."
"Ok, contact me in advance when it's almost over," Dr. Agasa smiled. "They've agreed to come to my place after watching the performance."
"I'll contact you in advance then." Senichi smiled. "That way, it'll be more convenient for me too."
After bidding farewell to Dr. Agasa, Senichi took the little ones and headed towards the live-action show venue of Kamen Yaiba. Although on the surface, he was still joking and chatting with the little ones, in reality, his vigilance had been raised to the highest.
There was no choice. In Senichi's view, this is probably a precursor to a new case that is about to happen.
Yes, the reason Senichi promised to bring them to this live-action show of Kamen Yaiba after hearing Genta's words at the Tropical Land was because he felt that a case might occur.
You see, every time the little ones participated in Kamen Yaiba-related activities, some cases related to Kamen Yaiba would happen. It had become a quite distinctive series.
So when he heard about it, he immediately intervened in the case, hoping to see if he could take the opportunity to prevent it.
This is also the reason why Senichi didn't let Ayako come over. After all, it's a performance that only children would like, already quite boring, and on top of that, there might be a case happening. How could he possibly let Ayako come over?
However, when Senichi, led by the little ones, arrived at the entrance of the live-action stage play venue, he fell into contemplation as he looked at the massive promotional poster.
"This... seems a bit different from the Kamen Yaiba I remember." Senichi's tone sounded somewhat peculiar.
"Hehe, this is a new work from the Kamen Yaiba company!"
Mitsuhiko, upon hearing Senichi's words, smiled and said, "This is a story set in a parallel world. The protagonist is no longer Kamen Yaiba but Kamen Yaiba Galaxy Archer, or Kamen Archer for short!"
"Detective Senichi, just treat it as a completely independent story!" Ayumi added with a smile.
"Although it's an independent story in a parallel world, it's still very interesting!"
Seeing Senichi's strange expression, Mitsuhiko mistakenly thought that Senichi found this Kamen Archer "unauthentic" and said, "If you don't believe it, just wait until the performance starts and see. It's very cool!"
After listening to the little ones' explanations and looking at the promotional banners on the panel, Senichi's mouth twitched slightly, feeling that it was somewhat different from what he had imagined.
Kamen Yaiba Galaxy Archer!?
Where the hell did this knockoff come from? I've never even heard of it!
Although he maintained a seemingly understanding expression, Senichi's inner thoughts were frantically criticizing.
You see, what I learned about in anime was always the Kamen Yaiba in the all-blue costume. Now, suddenly, a completely unfamiliar Kamen Yaiba emerged. Would there still be a case?
Perhaps this would just be an ordinary daily activity, after all, cases don't happen at all times. Conan will only randomly trigger a murder case, but not every day would have a murder case.
Hmm... maybe eight or nine times out of ten, sometimes everyone can still enjoy a peaceful daily life.
It's just that those ordinary days completely happened in a place unknown to others, similar to being directly omitted from the manga.
But being unimportant, neglected, doesn't mean it doesn't exist.
