Detective Conan: The Ultimate Growth Space

Sato Tomoyuki's father graduated from Teitan School.

Therefore, Sato Tomoyuki attended Teitan School from the time he enrolled.

Following the path he remembered, Zhiyong arrived at Teitan High School.

Campus life is the best time of one's life.

Now that he is able to return to school, Zhiyong is filled with endless emotions.

Zhiyong stood at the school gate.

Everything before my eyes was so unfamiliar, yet so familiar in my memory.

A gentle breeze caressed my cheeks, and the sun quietly draped its golden rays over the cherry blossom trees.

I watched as groups of smiling students, chatting and laughing, passed by and entered the school.

Zhiyong looked at the schoolbag he was carrying, which reminded him of the past ten days.

People often say that we only learn to cherish something when we lose it.

Now that God has given Zhiyong another chance, he cherishes it very much.

"Sato-kun, why are you standing at the school gate instead of going in?" A girl's voice reached Zhiyong's ears.

Zhiyong heard the sound and turned around.

It was only then that Zhiyong noticed a beautiful girl standing beside him.

Zhiyong could see the melancholy in her eyes.

Upon seeing the girl in front of him, a name immediately flashed into Zhiyong's mind.

"Good morning, Takei-kun. How was your holiday?"

This melancholy girl is named Naoko Takei.

During their time at school, Tomoyuki and Naoko Takei were somewhat similar; both were quiet and reserved in class.

The two of them usually sit quietly by themselves.

Perhaps it was because the two had similar personalities that they felt a sense of shared suffering.

Naoko Takei and Tomoyuki would occasionally have some conversations.

At least within the class, compared to others, the two had a better relationship and could be considered friends.

"It's alright, why are you standing at the school gate?" Naoko Takei asked curiously.

"It's nothing, it just feels like time has flown by, it feels a bit like a dream," Zhiyong replied with a smile.

“Let’s go then. Now is not the time for lamenting. We’ll be late if we don’t leave now,” Naoko Takei said.

Zhiyong shrugged and said, "Okay, let's go."

Now that they've returned from their holiday, the students are all filled with joy, and during their breaks, they talk to each other about their holiday experiences.

Inside the classroom, Zhiyong saw Ran, whom he had met before, and also saw Shinichi Kudo and Sonoko Suzuki from his memories.

Shinichi Kudo is indeed a handsome man, and he is very popular with beautiful women.

On the very first day of school, his desk was already overflowing with love letters confessing his feelings.

That's so enviable!

Sonoko Suzuki has short brown hair and dark green eyes, and she is very cute. But how could she be a fangirl?

This is really quite strange.

Another point is that since Sonoko Suzuki likes handsome men, why hasn't she ever been interested in Shinichi Kudo?

Could it be because of Xiaolan?

Only Sonoko Suzuki herself knows this.

Because of Sato Tomoyuki's personality, and also because he was a few years older than his classmates.

After Zhiyong entered the classroom.

Apart from a few people around his seat who asked him a few questions, no one chatted with him.

Zhiyong was also observing the situation of each student in the classroom, hoping to integrate into the group quickly.

That way, no one will discover that he is no longer the original Sato Tomoyuki.

At lunchtime, Sonoko Suzuki found Tomoyu, and she looked at him with a very strange smile.

Sonoko Suzuki's behavior struck Tomoyuki as very strange.

In Sato Tomoyuki's memory, he didn't seem to have any relationship with Suzuki Sonoko.

Do the two of them have a secret he doesn't know about?

Zhiyong's mind is now filled with questions.

Sonoko Suzuki pulled Tomoyuki aside to a secluded spot and said mysteriously, "Sato-kun, I heard from Ran that you opened a coffee shop downstairs from her house. Is that true?"

As she spoke, Sonoko Suzuki looked quite excited.

Zhiyong was relieved; it seemed he had been overly suspicious.

He nodded and replied, "Yes, I don't know, Suzuki-kun, this is...."

"Do you secretly like Ran? Is that why you opened a coffee shop there to get closer to her and have a better chance of getting closer to her? Tell me, tell me!"

When Sonoko Suzuki first started speaking, her voice wasn't very loud.

But the more she talked, the more excited she became, and her voice grew louder and louder, as if she had discovered something extraordinary.

Seeing Sonoko Suzuki's excited yet idiotic expression, Zhiyong breathed a sigh of relief.

When Sonoko Suzuki pulled him out.

Zhiyong was extremely uneasy.

He thought he had done something wrong and that Sonoko Suzuki had discovered some flaw.

Zhi Yong almost considered killing someone to cover it up.

However, after listening to Sonoko's words, Tomoyuki felt relieved.

But it also made him feel as if a million alpacas were stampeding through his heart.

Zhiyong rolled his dead fish eyes, pretending to be very helpless and sad, and said: "Suzuki-kun, you are the young lady of the Suzuki family. Even if you do nothing in the future, you will live a very carefree life. But I can't. I am just a poor loser. I have to support myself."

He paused for a moment, then continued, "When I get married, I'll have to support my wife, and when I have children, I'll have to support them. Now I need to prepare for work in advance. You can live a carefree life in the future, but we poor people have to struggle just to survive."

Zhiyong's voice sounded somewhat melancholic.

By the end, Zhiyong was starting to believe what he was saying.

Sonoko Suzuki felt a little embarrassed after hearing Tomoyuki's answer.

In just a moment, she sensed that something was wrong.

Teitan High School is a prestigious private school.

The students at this school all come from wealthy or influential families, even those from the poorest backgrounds.

They all live quite well in society.

Sonoko Suzuki had also heard that Tomoyuki's parents had passed away.

But if Zhiyong was able to acquire Polo Coffee Shop, his family probably isn't that poor.

"How dare you try to fool me."

This made Sonoko, the Great Demon King, very unhappy.

He was also very dissatisfied with Zhiyong's answer, looking disappointed and powerless, and stared at Zhiyong for a long time.

Sonoko Suzuki then said angrily, somewhat excitedly, "How can you be so spineless? That's Ran, Ran! How can you not like her? You're going to compete with that big idiot, this brainwashed detective for Ran, and you're going to steal her away! Sato-kun, I'm rooting for you!"

As she spoke, she excitedly waved her arms, making Zhiyong feel as if it were her own business.

I wonder if this young lady went out without taking her medication, and now she's had another attack.

Zhiyong coughed helplessly, interrupting Suzuki Sonoko's daydream, and said, "Suzuki-kun, have you been watching too much TV?"

After saying that, Zhiyong looked Suzuki Sonoko up and down for a long time.

Sonoko Suzuki was completely bewildered and felt a little uneasy. She silently took a step back.

Zhiyong smiled and took a step closer, whispering, "Suzuki-kun, you don't happen to like Shinichi Kudo but are too shy to compete with your best friend, so you hope someone else will get Mori-kun. That way you can make your move without worry."

Sonoko Suzuki, who had been looking excited, rolled her eyes and her lips twitched involuntarily after hearing what Tomoyu had to say.

She then erupted in anger, saying, "Do you have any taste? How could I possibly like that big, dumb, brain-dead detective? I thought you were going to stage a dramatic love triangle, but I never expected you to be so useless. You're driving me crazy!"

Upon hearing Sonoko Suzuki's words, Zhiyong felt as if a thousand alpacas were stampeding through his heart.

"Damn, what kind of best friend are you? I wonder if Xiao Lan will kill you if she finds out," Zhi Yong thought to himself.

Although he thought this in his heart, Zhiyong did not show it on his face.

Zhiyong said seriously, "That's not necessarily true. Maybe you haven't realized it yet, so subconsciously you're thinking about ruining Ran and Shinichi's relationship. There's nothing wrong with loving someone, so if you love someone, say it out loud and bravely pursue them."

Upon hearing this, Sonoko became even angrier: "Are you out of your mind? I already said there was no such thing."

"Did I really hit the nail on the head? Look how anxious you are."

"Are you deaf? I already said I'm not."

Seeing that Sonoko was really angry, Zhiyong quickly changed the subject, "You don't like Shinichi Kudo, so do you like me? I'm not that kind of person." As he spoke, he even gave a scary look.

Sonoko Suzuki retorted angrily, "You're dreaming! How could I possibly like you?"

Zhiyong also pretended to be very sad and said, "When you asked me to come out, I thought Cupid's arrow had struck me and you were going to confess your feelings to me, making my heart pound. Who knew that you..."

At this point, he covered his chest with both hands, pretending to be in unbearable pain.

Zhi Yong hadn't expected that he also had a talent for acting.

Sonoko Suzuki was now shocked by what Tomoyu had said.

She only intended to tease Zhiyong; she was completely unprepared.

Suddenly she screamed "Ah!" and took a few steps back.
