In the morning, Kuuga was in the hospital, recovering from his injuries. The children arrived to visit him.

Ayumi: I'm glad to see that Kuuga is recovering.

Genta: Yeah.

Mitsuhiko: The doctor said he needs a lot of rest. Let's see if he's still in bed.

Conan and Haibara had a private conversation.

Conan: I'm surprised you came along.

Haibara: I just need to check something, that's all.

Conan: About what?

Haibara fell silent, recalling the fight with the arsonist.

Haibara (thoughts): Yes, I sensed a familiar presence during that arsonist case. If he's one of them...

Time-skip scene.

They arrived at the hospital and went to Kuuga's room to check on him.

Ayumi: Hello, Kuuga.

Mitsuhiko: We came to visit you.

Kuuga was sleeping in his bed.

Conan: He hasn't woken up yet.

Genta: What? He hasn't eaten much?

Mitsuhiko: Genta, that's not true.

Ayumi: That day took a lot of energy to fight.

Kuuga slowly opens his eyes and wakes up.

Ayumi: Good morning.

Kuuga tries to sit up.

Kuuga: Morning.

Mitsuhiko: We came to visit and see if you're alright.

Kuuga: I see. What happened to Detective Takagi?

Conan: You mean him? He's fine, and he probably got his wish.

Kuuga: His wish?

Conan explains to Kuuga about Takagi and how Detective Sato promised to go on a date with him if he solves the Shushiro case.

Kuuga: I see. Good for him.

The children continue talking to Kuuga about Takagi and Sato relationship, but Haibara remains cautious around Kuuga.

Conan: Hey.

Haibara: Huh?

Conan: How long have you been keeping an eye on him?

Haibara: Like I said, I need to check something.

Conan: Huh? Don't tell me you...

Haibara: What?

Nurse comes to check on Kuuga's condition.

Nurse: Excuse me. Oh, you have visitors.

Mitsuhiko: No, we were just about to go home.

Nurse: I see.

Ayumi: See you.

Ayumi and the others leave the room, and Kuuga waves goodbye.

Genta: If you ever want to see us, you can find us at Teitan Elementary School.

Kuuga: Huh?

The kids leave the room and exit the hospital.

Kuuga: Teitan Elementary School? Is that...

Nurse: Ah, Kuuga. I would like to check your health.

Kuuga: Yes.
