Ran Mouri moved out smoothly.
This move was destined to be a one-way trip.
She couldn't accept Shinichi Kudo's concealment from her, nor could she accept the "selfishness" he maintained towards her.
Although she wouldn't directly expose him, she didn't want to live under the same roof as Shinichi Kudo.
"Ran, you can choose a room you like."
"Um, thank you, Mom."
"There's no need to thank between mother and daughter."
As she spoke, Eri Kisaki held her daughter in her arms and comforted her softly.
"Don't think too much about that kid. He has nothing to do with you, and his matters don't require you to take responsibility."
「...He's not dead either.」
Ran Mouri didn't know what to say, but she still felt it was better not to say it.
Shinichi's situation was actually quite dangerous.
She wasn't against Shinichi moving into her house, but she didn't want him to be exposed and affect her father's safety.
The secret still needed to be kept.
She couldn't simply stop hiding it just because she knew the truth.
She even had to help conceal that secret frequently.
Thinking about it, Ran Mouri realized her future life might not be so easy.
"I know, Mom."
She definitely had to go to school, but she really couldn't bring herself to it today.
The fact that her childhood sweetheart had deceived, concealed, and acted selfishly towards her gave her a headache.
However, the diary she suddenly received made her want to talk to the boy named Ren Amamiya.
Yeah, she wanted to know if the real story began after Shinichi moved into her house.
She put all her things in the room, listening to her mother's voice outside the door.
"Ran, I'm going to work now."
"Okay!"
Listening to the sound of the door closing outside, Ran Mouri threw herself onto the bed.
After a while, she raised her head and flipped through the diary quickly.
The specific recorded time was the day before going to Tropical Land.
There were also stories about Tropical Land.
She also remembered that on the way to the amusement park, she saw many people wearing mascot costumes, handing out balloons and flyers, and one of them should have been that person.
The following content included footage of Shinichi gradually shrinking.
Seeing this scene for the second time still had a significant impact on her heart.
"Strange drugs can turn high school students into little kids."
"I didn't expect there to be such a bizarre poison in the world..."
As an ordinary girl who only excelled in karate, Ran Mouri really couldn't imagine the existence of such special drugs.
But Shinichi's kind of selfishness...
"Sigh..."
"It would be great if he had that kind of selfishness under normal circumstances."
When she was alone, Ran Mouri couldn't help but complain.
Knowing that Shinichi was safe, she didn't even want to control her emotions.
She even felt excited to punch that little ghost wearing glasses who deceived her, letting him know she wasn't so easy to fool.
But that was just a thought.
Such actions were too likely to expose Shinichi's identity.
Moreover, Ran Mouri started to realize something.
"Maybe, what Sonoko has been saying all along is right."
Love is blind.
Ran Mouri didn't know if she had been in that blind state all along.
Now, seeing Shinichi ruin his identity with the help of his mother and father, and even trying to stay by her side, she felt a little...
As for whether Shinichi could return to his original high school student form, she actually had no expectations.
He could ruin his own identity, which meant he must have been involved in something big behind the scenes.
Something huge was hidden behind this.
But even if it wasn't something Shinichi got involved in, just the mere existence of a drug that could turn people into children was extremely strange.
She even felt that even if it wasn't a special organization targeting Shinichi, if he simply exposed the fact that he turned into a child, he would probably not escape becoming a guinea pig.
No matter how she thought about it, Ran Mouri knew that Shinichi would never come back.
"Sigh..."
"Why do you always have to charge ahead when things happen?"
While sighing, Ran Mouri couldn't help but complain.
If Shinichi hadn't been so nosy, maybe he wouldn't have been hit with a stick that night, and he wouldn't have been poisoned.
"Right, there was also the lottery."
An illusory large wheel appeared in front of her.
Ran Mouri looked at it with curiosity and slowly reached out to touch the large wheel.
The large wheel spun rapidly and then slowly stopped, with the pointer aimed at a specific area.

【Note: The title cannot be removed. Upon obtaining the title, you will gain the characteristics "Glutton" and "Digestive Monster."】
"Glutton... Digestive Monster..."
These two characteristics left Ran Mouri stunned.
"No way..."
"Gurgling...~~~"
Her stomach's reaction gave her a huge surprise.
「So hungry... 」
For the first time in the morning, Ran Mouri felt such a strong hunger.
There was no doubt about it. This lottery was real, and the "Glutton" and "Digestive Monster" characteristics were real too.
「Could it be I'm really going to become a glutton?」
Holding her stomach, even though she felt resistant, the feeling of hunger in her stomach was very unpleasant.
She quickly went to the kitchen.
She opened the refrigerator.
"...Mom, even if you're not good at cooking, you don't have to put so many condiments in?"
Besides some lettuce, the refrigerator was full of condiments.
Ran Mouri really couldn't understand why her mom, who wasn't good at cooking, would stock up on so many condiments.
But now was not the time to complain.
First, she needed to solve the problem of her hunger.
She cooked rice and processed the lettuce.
She made a simple rice wrap.
It took her fifty minutes to prepare, but she devoured it all in less than fifteen minutes.
"Ugh~ I'm seven points full."
She could feel that her stomach wasn't completely full, but rather at a very suitable stage for activity.
Seven points full.
It had just reached the passing point of fullness, but it didn't make her stomach feel too full.
Ran Mouri rubbed her small belly.
"I ate so much, but I can't feel my belly bulge."
But the next second, her head started to ache.
"What do I do, is my food expenses going to increase drastically now?"
An increase in appetite meant a huge increase in daily expenses.
As a frugal girl, Ran Mouri suddenly felt that her allowance would probably not be enough.
