at Shouko house.

Shouko is getting ready for the date. she wears some nice white dress from her grandma's recommendation. while she was getting ready, her mother suddenly knocks on her room.

"Shouko, can I come in?" Her mother asks.

"Y-yesh M-Moam" Shouko answered albeit she doesn't speak smoothly and opened her door.

Her mother Yaeko, notice Shouko wearing a nice dress. she may appear cold but Shouko knows she loves them deeply. (A/N: Her mother is less crazy and cold because, in this story, she confront the school that used to be bullying her. she's not too cold to a man or a guy)

"Shouko... You're saying that you're going on a date right?" Yaeko asks. she knows the story of how the school treats her since Shouko tells her grandma everything. and It's because of Rai that Shouko got a lot of love and caring from her friends.

Shouko using her hand and answered [yes]

her mother then just standing still for a couple of seconds and then walks away. Shouko expected that suddenly her mother stopped walking away and said "Return early okay? Give me a call if there's something happened to you" then she closed the door. it's instinct but her mother can tell that her daughter is going to be in a good hand. she closed her eyes and wish for happiness and hopefully not end like her fate.

Shouko is really happy that she almost cry but she holds it because she doesn't want to ruin her date. when she gets back down Yuzuru and her Grandma are there.

Yuzuru "So you're going on a date with that guy in the photo you show us right? I think it's too fast for you to fall for that guy Onee-chan" she said.

Shouko just blushed and doing a hand sign, [What are you saying?! It's just a date with a friend!]

Yuzuru just sighs and her grandma said, "Well it's fine isn't it? I think he's a fine guy from Shouko's story, and he is the one who introduces her to his wonderful friends that make her happy right?"

"And where do you get that confidence grandma?" Yuzuru asked and her grandma answered, "Just called it 'a woman instinct. you don't know it now but you'll have it in the future"

Yuzuru then pouting and Shouko just laugh at the interaction of the two. the family suddenly heard a car pulling up. it's a black silver sports car that Rai brings. he gets out and waited for her but Shouko is all ready and it's at the front door.

Rai "Good morning Shouko, you look beautiful" He said that to Shouko. she blushed not just because He said to her that she is beautiful, it's also the fact that Rai clothes are making him more handsome.

Shouko using her hand sign and said [I am not beautiful, but you're very good looking today Rai]

[Don't sell yourself too short Shouko, you're beautiful] Rai said seriously.

Yuzuru and her grandma are a little bit surprised that he used hand sign to talk to her, even if they know he can from Shouko's story.

"Ara, so this is Rai-Kun? He is certainly more handsome than the picture depicts" her grandma starts talking to him.

"Yes, I am grandmother. It's nice to meet you" Rai bowed politely.

Her grandma said, "What a polite young man, Here Yuzuru meet him too" then Yuzuru is in Rai sight.

"Nice to meet you Yuzuru-chan. I heard a lot from your older sister that you're a good nature kid" Rai said then unconsciously pats her head. she wants to resist but it just feels good.

"N-nice to meet you Rai-san" Yuzuru said quietly. Rai then said, "Well, I am going to borrow Shouko first okay?"

Yuzuru just nods and understands her grandma's word now. Rai said goodbye to her grandma and Yuzuru. he opens the car door for Shouko and said goodbye to them and they're off.

On their way, Rai goes to a highway to Tokyo. Shouko asked him with a hand sign [where are we going?] and Rai answered, "We're going to Tokyo for a famous spot tour!" Then Rai just continuously drive while he turning on the Radio. Shouko is looking forward to where she is going on her date. while Rai is driving he noticed a minivan going too early changing lane and crash into another car.

Shouko is shocked and becomes scared then closed her eyes for a moment. Rai just clam down and avoid it to left. He checks the rear and the front to see a chance and he instantly floors it. Shouko who just thought they're going to crash, just couldn't believe what Rai's doing.

She asked hurriedly while in amazement, [How did you do that?!] in a hand sign. Rai just answered "I just do it instinctively I guess"

[Are they going to be okay?] she asked them while looking at the crash in the back. Rai answered to reassure her, "It's fine. it's not a big crash and I already know from the dent that minivan give, they're going to be fine"

Shouko just sigh in relief. she was happy that the people are going to be fine. Rai just smiled at her and pat her head. He thought 'Such an angel' when he sees her.

They both arrive in Tokyo and Rai parks his car to a famous Ramen Restaurant.

[Ramen?] Shouko ask in her notebook to Rai. He answered "Yeah, I heard it's very good and the price is quite reasonable" Shouko then nods and excitedly going in without realizing she holds Rai's hand. Rai didn't mind at all and when she goes in it's packed but thankfully a waiter ask them.

Waiter "Hello are you two a couple?" then Shouko just went beat red and try to denies it but Rai hurriedly said "Yes we are" Boldly which made Shouko blush even more.

Waiter "There is a couple's discount so please sit over there" The waiter brings them to their table.

They sat together and ordered Miso-ramen. Shouko using a hand sign to Rai. She asked Rai to add some pork back fat. Rai nods and said to the waiter they're ordering that. the waiter then leaves and They're just waiting for the food.

The customer and workers see Rai and Shouko as a perfect couple. A tall and Handsome man plus A beautiful woman who is appeared pure is a perfect combo to attack the person who is single. Some women seeing their hand sign conversation and thought it's like a manga scene where two couples who only can understand what each other saying.

The food is ready and the waiter brings it to them. Rai and Shouko are eating after they pray and slurps the noodles. Rai thought it's delicious since the Ramen is prepared by a tootsuki student but that's it. Shouko on the other hand thought it was very delicious but not as good as the food Rai's curry.

When they're done Rai is paying them but Shouko insisted that they split. 'Such an angel' Rai's thought but Rai answered "What kind of Man I am not to pay the food for his date?" and Shouko immediately stop her hand sign and blushed. she meekly nodded, which the waiter find the couples cute. after they're done, both of them go to a building car parked. Rai parked them in the VIP section since his car is expensive. Shouko ask if this is okay to park your car in here, but Rai reassure her it's fine.

Then they left the car there and go walking around the city. They both enjoyed it that they're visiting somewhere interesting and having fun together. Shouko is very happy that this is what she dreams off. having fun while on a date. Rai are also happy that she is with her. then Rai brings her to a five-star hotel. Shouko is blushing and took out her notepad.

[Why are we here?!] she asked. Rai see her blushing and he thought she misunderstands something. He then brought out 2 tickets.

"We're here to a free all you can eat cake buffet, What are you thinking, Miss Shouko?" He grins while teasing her. Shouko become embarrassed and pout at the same time. then Rai just sigh and Bring her to the Hotel Restaurant and shows them the tickets. they both got in and Shouko is seeing a lot of sweets. She became happy again and she unconsciously pulls Rai hands to the Cake stand faster.

When Rai thought this girl is such a glutton. He hears a terrifying voice.

"What are you doing here, Rai-san?" He immediately turns around and thought,

'Oh god! I did raise a flag!'

what he sees is Conan with the other 3 children, Haibara and Professor Agasa.
