(Episode 651)

Their short kiss stopped as Subaru pushed her away and there was someone who opened the door.

Both of the people inside glanced at the door and saw Inspector Megure and Detective Takagi, Ran-san, Sonoko-chan, Conan and Kogorou were flustered at the sight.

"Sorry for disturbing." Sonoko teased as she and Ran went inside first. Ran was carrying the bouquet and placed on the vase atop her bedside table. 

Subaru immediately stood from the bed and sat on his previous seat.

The two police awkwardly went inside with Takagi's face filled with curiosity and of course, he looked like he would bombard Shiori questions about her lovelife.

Sonoko went beside her with Conan on her tail, "What happened?" The girl asked, sitting on the bed, which made Shiori blush.

Conan was scowling and glared at Subaru who looked stoic but deep inside he was surprised that Shiori kissed her.

"Nothing." Shiori lied and looked at the side where she could see Subaru staring at the floor.

Inspector Megure coughed catching their attention. "I already consulted your doctor and nurse, Shiori-kun. If you don't mind we'd like to question you about the case."

Shiori looked unsure and Subaru was about to say that she didn't have to force herself but the woman forced a smiled, "Then, can everyone else aside from the detectives leave the room? I think it's not appropriate for these young ladies and Conan to hear."

"But Shiori-neesan," Conan said but Kogorou-san got the hint and pulled the boy out with him. 

Subaru looked conflicted and Takagi, Sonoko and Shiori thought he'd want to stay inside the room but the man excused himself and left.

Shiori would lie if she doesn't admit that it hurt her to see Subaru act like that but she understood. I am just a friend of his late ex.

...

A woman wearing a nurse's uniform went out of the hospital. She's talking to someone over her phone, "The woman didn't say a word about who rescued her. Did you tell her to say that?"

The man on the other line smirked, "No."

"Then it means she wants to protect you two. It's not like the police would let someone be the hero after hearing they have a gun while on the dock on a suspicious hour."

When the man was silent, Vermouth snickered. "I already got your coat, don't worry." With that the man ended the call.
