Judging from Kudo’s face , it looks like he is trying to cheer Ai up. She can see that , of course. She can see through everything. Especially with Kudo. Not that she is proud of it or anything, she is just happy that she still has a friend who cares for her.
“True,” she said. “But, thank you ; mentantei-san.“
You have cheered me up a little.
Conan, as the semi-dense person he was (because that was completely logical for a detective, he would overlook feelings sometimes for things like murder, right?), blinked slightly at Ai’s response. Did his words really require a "thank you”? Well, whatever.
“It’s no problem,” he muttered as he leaned in to give the girl a slight pat on her head, “partner.”
We can’t have you feeling down after all.
