Brothers Adventures

Expecting the Return Gift

Shinichi, Ran and Sonoko are coming home after school. Shinichi is playing with his soccer ball while the girls just talking together

"Oh yeah Ran, I heard you are invited to a white day party thanks to your dad?" asked Sonoko
"Yes! Since my dad was featured in the commercial of the new white chocolate, Oh yeah how about you two coming with us?" asked Ran
"Hmmm tonight huh... Wait, I have to ask Conan first" said Shinichi as he turns on his phone
"Sorry Ran... I have something to do this evening" said Sonoko apologize
"It's fine"

Shinichi walk further from both girls to call his brother which give Sonoko a chance to ask Ran without Shinichi hearing them

"So Ran, did Shinichi-kun already give you the return gift?" asked Sonoko smirking
"Eh?" asked Ran surprised and blush
"Shinichi-kun got it right. Your homemade Valentine's chocolate"
"Well... Rather than giving him, it's more like he helped himself to it. Not to mention, not too many boys pay attention to things like this well"
"You should try forcing him Ran!"
"Hahaha no way he would understand that, after all he is baka mystery geek"

Shinichi who only overheard the mocking which make him got irritated until moments later he sees Conan got out from a certain shop

"Oi Conan!" shout Shinichi

Conan got shock as he heard someone called him which to be his big brother, Shinichi quickly run to him

"Shinichi-niichan?! You don't have soccer practice today?" asked Conan as he quickly covers his bag behind him
"No, most of my teammates are not practicing today. What are you doing here?" asked Shinichi
"Ah well... you will know later on"
"Oh yeah, do you have something to do tonight?"
"Nothing in particularly, why?"
"Ran invite us to attend a white day party, you know the company of that white chocolate commercial that Mouri-tantei starred in"
"Ahh I remember now, I should be fine tonight. I haven't thought of what to eat for dinner after all"
"Alright then, don't worry we're probably going in 6 AM which is plenty of time for you to make that"
"YOU FOUND OUT?!"

Conan shout to him in shock while Shinichi just smirk like a bad boy and winning for knowing what his little brother want to do

"It's very clear to me since you just got out from that store. Never underestimate my skills of solving little Conan-kun" said Shinichi mocking
"Cih fine fine, then tomorrow you will not get any allowance" said Conan unhappy
"Oi oi give me a break!"
"Then tell me how did you know?! I never told you anything"
"Last week, I found some leftover cheap white chocolates in the fridge and some different types of sugar and cream. That's certainly not my doing since I can't bake, Ran will not go to my house to bake which leaves to you only... You were practicing right, so you can make the real one with these which looking by the paper bag, it's seems to be expensive"
"As expected from high school detective... You got it all right"

Moments later, Ran and Sonoko arrive to them and surprised to see Conan have a paper bag from the shop which to be cake and sweets shop

"Conan-kun, what are you doing?" asked Ran
"Eh well.... Hahahaha" laugh Conan who didn't want to answer

Sonoko quickly smirk as she snatched Conan's paper bag and then look inside it. Ran and Shinichi was not happy of what Sonoko did but they stop themselves as Sonoko take out a white chocolate bar

"This is..." asked Ran looking at it
"Wait a minute, this is the limited edition famous white chocolate bar that only sell 100 bars per month!" said Sonoko who realizes it
"No way! Not to mention, you get a lot! How did you do it Conan-kun?"
"I booked in advanced of course... I already reserve some since last week"
"Even I can't get this much.... Quite scary" said Sonoko in low voice
"Did you know the shopkeeper?" asked Shinichi
"Yeah... Actually, the shopkeeper got pickpocketed when my friends and I are playing soccer and we help her get the culprit and her bag back. As a thank you, she treat us some chocolates here and I secretly booked the chocolate bars for today... I'm also surprised since I remember that I only ordered two chocolate bars" said Conan as he took the paper bag back
"But she gives you five instead... Talk about luck" said Sonoko
"Why did you buy this? Do you want to make something?" asked Ran
"Ah yeah... You could say that"
