<Your POV>
                          
All of us are standing in front of Yoko-san living room looking at the horrifying scene in front of us.
                          
Kogorou : TH-THIS IS?! The police.... Call the police!!
                          
I heard Oji-san says but then Yamagishi-san interrupt him.
                          
Yama : P-please wait, Mr. Detective! If the media gets word of this, it'll turn into a scandal around her....
                          
After Yamagishi-san said that, Oji-san then look at Yoko-san seeing her crying. Shock and horror still present on her face. Me and Conan are standing side by side watching everything unfold.
                          
Yoko : How could this happen in my own apartment....?
                          
Yama : If you could keep it secret....
                          
Kogorou : Y-you're right, we'll make it secret....
                          
From the corner of my eyes, I can see Conan with a so done face right after Oji-san utter that word, but I know better that that's not what Oji-san wanted to say. Oji-san voice then booming in the whole room startling everyone except for me since I have expected it.
                          
Kogorou : ARE YOU TOTALLY INSANE?! THIS IS A MURDER!! Ran!! Call the police right now!!
                          
Ran : Yes!!
                          
Kogorou yell at Yamagishi-san then command Ran to call the police. Ran then hurriedly to the phone and call the police. I then can feel eyes on me. I look for the source to see Conan is looking at me.
                          
Erena : What?
                          
Conan : You knew!
                          
Erena : Knew what?
                          
Conan : That old man will get mad and call the police?!
                          
Erena : Ahh.... Yes I know. He's an ex-police officer. Of course he would do that no matter who's the client is. You really ough to sharpen your observation skills, unless you want me to surpass you....
                          
Conan : Hey!! You better not!! I'm going to be the most greatest detective ever and even surpass Sherlock Holmes himself....
                          
I then chuckle cutting him up. I can see Conan look at me then blush after realization hit him making me laugh. He glare at me his face still red.
                          
Conan : D-don't laugh!
                          
Erena : Hahaha. Okay, okay. Sorry. But don't worry. Sherlock Holmes may be my idol, the same as you, but I don't want to be like Sherlock Holmes. I want to be like Professor Watson. Being by your side, helping you solve cases. That's my goal.
                          
<Conan POV>
                          
Erena : Hahaha. Okay, okay. Sorry. But don't worry. Sherlock Holmes may be my idol, the same as you, but I don't want to be like Sherlock Holmes. I want to be like Professor Watson. Being by your side, helping you solve cases. That's my goal.
                          
After she said that, she look at me and give me her most beautiful smile I've ever seen on her face. I can feel my face warming up even more. How her eyes turn into a crescent shape and her bright, kind, innocent smile showing a bit line of her white teeth is so mesmerizing.
                          
I feel like I'm being struck in my heart making my heart thumping fast and loud that I thought everyone can hear it from miles away.
                          
Conan : I am sure now. 100% sure. I like (Y/N). I like her more than a friend, more than a family, more than Ran.... RAN!! If I like (Y/N) more than Ran, what is this feeling that I feel towards Ran. Is it only a fling....
                          
Erena : -kun.... nan-kun.... CONAN-KUN!!
                          
I snap out of my trance and look at Erena. Her face is so close that I can feel her warm breath on my face. I can feel my face heating up again at how close we are. She look at me worriedly.
