Digging a Clam or Conan?

Yuuki was a bit bored and thought to invite them to have clam digging in the nearest beach.

"Clam digging?!" Kuina had drool on her mouth, "Hehehe, it will be nice to bake it with butter."

*gulp

They thought it would be very delicious to eat it in the summer.

"Good, how about we go now?" Yuuki said.

"Now?"

They thought for a bit and looked at Chiaki.

Chiaki sighed, "Alright, let's go now."

"Yay!!!" Kuina and Hinako were really happy.

"Let me get my car first," Yuuki said.

Conan sighed while looking at the kid around him.

"Yay, we will catch a lot of clams!" Ayumi was very excited.

"No, I will be the one," Mitsuhiko said.

"Still, I want to eat bake it with butter, combine it with miso soup....." Genta started to imagine what kind of food that he could eat with clams.

Conan looked at the three little devils who suddenly came to Ran's house and brought him to have clam digging. He looked at Haibara and asked, "Haibara, do you know anything about Yuuki?"

"Hmm? Why do you ask him suddenly?" Haibara asked.

"Nothing, I have met him in Kyoto before but he didn't join to solve the case before," Conan thought it was weird for him to not join the investigation.

Yuuki, who heard him, probably would smack his head for making such a false statement, 'I'm not joining the investigation, not because I like it but because you keep bringing that murder case to me!' He would say that out loud to him.

Haibara thought for a bit and said, "Maybe because he has something to do there, I have heard that one of his company was in there."

"Ooohh," Conan nodded and didn't say any more.

Yuuki was in the car with the Hitotose group and Yukari. He had tried to invite his girlfriends but they had their own matter.

Utaha wanted to sleep since she was tired of doing night activities and writing.

Ranko and Yukana wanted to go shopping together.

Makoto was doing an experiment in her room.

Kuroka was playing outside or trying to provoke someone from the supernatural world.

Shouko had promised to play with her little sister today.

Tsugumi had a mission from her boss then went shopping with Chitoge.

Marika had her part-time job too.

Yuuki felt a bit disappointed but at least he had someone who could accompany him right now.

"Is this okay?" Chiaki asked.

"Clam! Clam! Clam!" Kuina was really happy.

"Kuu-chan is very exciting," Hinako smiled.

"Yes, I want to eat a lot of clams!" Kuina smiled.

"Kuu-chan, you should be lady-like, don't show ungraceful action," Mayuki reprimanded her.

"Eh? Mayu-chan is very strict," Kuina pouted and looked at Yukari, "Yukari-san, do you want to eat a clam too?"

Yukari nodded, "Yes, I'm sure that it'll be delicious." She looked at the front seat and wondered when both of them had become close to each other, 'It should be that school trip?'

---

"Thank you, Yuuki," Chiaki smiled at him.

"Don't worry," Yuuki nodded.

Everyone had changed their clothes to something more comfortable and also brought their changing clothes since they would go to the beach.

It would be hard for them to have their clothes wet all of sudden and didn't bring their change.

Yuuki thought for a bit and asked, "Is your father still in the overseas playing maraca?"

Chiaki shook her head, "This time he is playing castanets."

"Castanets? Really?" Yuuki asked.

"Yeah," Chiaki sighed when she thought of her father.

Yuuki looked at the mirror and suddenly he remembered the panties that were still in his pants. He thought that he should test the water and asked them a question, "Hey, I have found something along the way to Hitotose Cafe, is there any of you who lost your thing?"

"Hmm? No," Kuina shook her head.

"Not me either," Mayuki shook her head.

"What did you find?" Chiaki asked.

"Strawberry," Yuuki said and could see someone was very nervous.

"Strawberry? Did you find fruit on the street? Shouldn't you throw it in the trash since it is dirty?" Yukari said.

'D - Dirty? Trash?' Hinako who heard those cruel words couldn't help but wanted to cry.

"Hina-chan, what's wrong? Why are you crying?" Kuina was worried.

"N - Nothing, there was something in my eyes earlier," Hinako said while wiping her eyes.

'This is inside the car?!' Yuuki wanted to refute but he didn't say anything since he had found his Cinderella.

Hinako wanted to say something to him but she was too shy to him.

---

Yua wanted to go to the Hitotose Cafe since she felt that she had been left out by them. She knew that they had fun but always left her behind. She thought to go to Hitotose Cafe to play since she was also too bored. She thought that she could see both Chiaki-senpai and Yuuki-senpai there. She looked at the cafe and saw a 'closed' notice in front of the door.

"......"

"Did they just leave me behind again?" Yua wanted to cry right now.

---

They had arrived on the beach and wore the boots that they had brought and the equipment to dig the clam.

"Yay! Let's catch the clam!!!"

Kuina shouted but there was another group of children who said the same thing as her.

They looked at each other and couldn't help but be surprised.

"Huh? Yuuki-ni??" Genta, Ayumi and Mitsuhiko were surprised.

"What are you doing here?" Conan also walked toward him and asked curiously.

Yuuki didn't answer him but looked around his surroundings.

"What are you doing?" Haibara asked.

"Conan is here, there should be a murder case nearby," Yuuki answered.

"...."

Conan, who heard it, couldn't help but wanted to beat him now.
