I'm in Detective Conan, but it's a chaotic battlefield.

Ai Haibara was completely speechless.

However, looking into Chen Nuo's eyes, there was no evil intention whatsoever; in fact, they could be described as clear and innocent.

This actually made it harder for Ai Haibara to lash out.

He probably just sees me as a child.

Furthermore, if the marks on his body aren't cleaned up properly, they might leave traces at the dojo, and if Gin finds out...

Ai Haibara started to fill in the blanks in her mind.

Chen Nuo asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"

"N-nothing, how is my sister?" Ai Haibara said, trying to sit up.

Chen Nuo pressed her back onto the bed: "She's in good condition, but she hasn't woken up yet. Why don't you finish your noodles first?"

Ai Haibara rubbed her shoulder where Chen Nuo had touched her, feeling a little strange, but after thinking about it, she realized he was right.

My sister is currently in a coma, and we have to rely on her to handle everything. It would be a real problem if something went wrong with her health.

As for the bathing thing... let's observe him for a while. If he doesn't do anything strange, maybe I'm just overthinking it.

Ai Haibara held the bowl of noodles and ate them in small bites.

Chen Nuo sat on the edge of the bed, watching her eat noodles.

"We still can't stay here forever, it's too dangerous," Ai Haibara said between bites.

Chen Nuo nodded: "This is just a temporary solution. Once Minghao is feeling better, we'll send her to a safe place to rest."

“It’s Akemi-nee,” Ai Haibara corrected.

Seeing her serious expression, Chen Nuo laughed and said, "It's all the same. You don't think I have feelings for your sister, do you?"

Ai Haibara raised the tip of her nose: "That's hard to say."

Chen Nuo smiled and ruffled her hair.

Ai Haibara assessed the situation in her mind and thought, thankfully, it was within the acceptable range for interacting with ordinary children.

Ai Haibara took another sip of noodle soup, licking the soup off the corner of her lips with her small tongue: "Once my sister's condition stabilizes a bit, let's send her to Professor Agasa's place."

Chen Nuo: "Dr. Agasa, is it safe there?"

Ai Haibara: "It's at least a million times safer than here, and his basement has a lot of advanced equipment. You can't bring all that equipment in if you stay in a hotel, can you?"

Chen Nuo thought about it for a moment and felt that it was a good idea.

The main point is that in the original work, Ai Haibara lived in Professor Agasa's house and was never discovered by the Black Organization.

He thought that this might be some kind of special buff.

If I were ever in dire straits, would I consider staying at Professor Agasa's house?

Chen Nuo started to have wild thoughts.

Ai Haibara ate most of the bowl of noodles, and her complexion quickly improved.

I wonder if it's because it's gotten smaller.

The scent on her body was different from before; it smelled milky and sweet.

It wasn't very noticeable before, but after eating noodles and sweating a bit, the entire area around the bed was filled with this milky aroma, which even overpowered the smell of the noodles.

"By the way, could you buy me a few outfits tomorrow? It's inconvenient for me to go out like this," Ai Haibara said.

Chen Nuo: "Okay, what type do you want?"

"Just buy whatever you think is best, the kind that ordinary kids wear will do," Ai Haibara said.

Chen Nuo thought for a moment and realized that she had never bought clothes for a child before.

For a moment, the concept of "clothes worn by ordinary children" did not come to mind.

However, this sense of novelty is quite interesting. It feels like the shrunken Ai Haibara is a brand-new doll.

He can dress up however he likes.

"You pervert, what are you thinking?"

Ai Haibara noticed that Chen Nuo's expression was off, and because she was holding a bowl of noodles, she kicked her with her small, white foot.

Her feet remained hidden under the blanket, her soft, white feet glistening with sweat, making them appear even more alluring under the light.

Chen Nuo looked down and suddenly remembered something.

"Oh, right, I found something earlier..."

Chen Nuo took out the broken fingernail and showed it to Ai Haibara.

Ai Haibara said calmly, "It was probably knocked away accidentally during the struggle. I even slashed two of Gin's men with the knife, but I still couldn't escape."

Chen Nuo's gaze was gentle: "It must have hurt a lot, right?"

Ai Haibara felt a little uncomfortable under his gaze, and blushed as she said, "I-I've already recovered. After I shrunk, my injuries healed along with my body."

Chen Nuo's eyes widened: "It grew back in no time? That's amazing!"

"Yes, you'll see if you don't believe me."

Ai Haibara stuck her foot out of the blanket a little.

Chen Nuo looked down and was immediately attracted by her delicate pink feet.

Shiho Miyano's legs were already much smaller than average, and this feature became even more pronounced after she shrank.

Her tiny, childlike feet rested on the edge of the bed, her delicate, cardamom-like toes with neatly arranged nails that showed no signs of injury.

Chen Nuo found it amazing.

So he held Ai Haibara's small feet in his hands and examined them carefully.

Ai Haibara shuddered, but remembering Chen Nuo's gentle gaze that had made her whole body go weak, she didn't stop him. Instead, she lowered her head and ate her noodles to hide her shyness.

Chen Nuo felt as if she were holding a soft cream pudding, or milk tofu, or a milk-flavored marshmallow...

Why is it all milk?

Because it really has a very rich milky flavor.

The snow-white, silky skin feels wonderful to the touch, and the delicate, soft instep and the tender flesh of the soles with a touch of sweat further enhance the experience.

Does shrinking size alter body odor?

But why don't we feel this way about Conan? That kid always smells of sweat, and Uncle Mori always smells of cigarettes.

Or is it that Conan is too dirty?

As a semi-detective, Chen Nuo naturally has a strong curiosity about exploring the unknown.

So, he gently lifted Ai Haibara's small foot and slowly brought it close to his nose.

An even stronger scent of feet filled my nostrils, and the fine beads of sweat covering the insteps drew ever closer.

"If you dare to kiss me, I'll kill you."

Ai Haibara's cold voice came from above.

Chen Nuo looked up and found that she was looking at him with a cold gaze.

"What a joke, who would kiss something like that?" Chen Nuo chuckled and put his feet down.

Ai Haibara seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.

Chen Nuo sat for a while, and when he got bored, he grabbed her little feet and gently played with them (examined them).

Ai Haibara simply sped up her eating of noodles and did not stop her.

Chen Nuo thought to herself, "It seems this is her bottom line."

After finishing his noodles, Chen Nuo took the bowl and left.

Ai Haibara breathed a sigh of relief after the door closed.

If I don't speak up to stop him, that bastard will definitely kiss me, right? Ai Haibara thought to herself.

However, when he took out that fingernail just now, the heartache in his eyes was very sincere, and that feeling was something Ai Haibara had never felt from a strange man before.

This made Ai Haibara somewhat unable to understand Chen Nuo.

He could risk everything to rescue her and her sister from the clutches of the organization, yet he could also make that strange expression on a primary school student's foot.

but,

Overall, he's a reliable person.

Aside from her older sister, this was the first time she had been protected like this.

Thinking of this, Ai Haibara's lips curled into a faint smile.

Then she saw that bastard Chen Nuo push the door open and come in, holding a strange red rope.

The rope made Ai Haibara feel uneasy.

"W-What are you going to do?"

Chen Nuo: "I couldn't find a ruler, so I'll just use this as a makeshift one."

"W-What do you mean?"

"I'm buying clothes for you, let me take your measurements first."

Chen Nuo walked over and was about to lift the blanket.

"Hentai!!!"

A small, white foot emerged from under the covers and kicked him in the face.

Chapter 39 You can repay with your body, you idiot!

On a street in Tokyo, a Porsche 356a is parked on the side of the road, its body covered in mud.

The sky in the distance was beginning to lighten.

After the rain, the temperature dropped so low it felt like winter had suddenly arrived. Even wearing a long-sleeved sports jacket, you would shiver from the cold.
