| + | Agasa met Fusae forty years before the current timeline, on the first day back from summer break the way to Okuho middle school. At the time, he was in 6th grade and she in the 4th at Teitan elementary. She was too frightened to pass the house which had a large dog who was owned by Mrs Choi. He helped her pass the house, and afterwards told him she was afraid of animals because she had been bitten by her pet dog when she was little, and she didn't have any pets from them on. To help her get over that fear of animals, he took her over to the house of a friend name Haruo Chouno who owned a hamster. She would later take care of the school's animals which she ended up enjoying taking care of the school chicken. She was very afraid of the hamster at first, but she got used to it after a while and overcame her fear of animals after a couple of months, and was able to walk past the dog unafraid. All this time, he had been walking with her to school every day. | ||
| + | |||
| + | One day, under the ginkgo trees behind Teitan elementary where the animals were kept, her hat blew off, revealing her brownish blond hair. She pleaded for him not to look at her hair, because she didn't want to be made fun of for looking different. He instead told her that he likes it and it is as beautiful as a ginkgo leaf. | ||
| + | |||
| + | Late in November, she didn't appear one day, and he found out she had suddenly moved away. Although she didn't tell him she was leaving, she had left a letter in his mailbox, saying that she will meet with him again ten years from that day, November 24, at "the place of memories". If he didn't come, she would wait again in another ten years. She left a riddle at the bottom of her letter "4163 33 6 0" and "Clue: Animals". Without knowing the answer, he had tried the house with the hamster thirty years prior and the house with the dog twenty years prior, but neither were correct. Conan wound up solving the riddle, revealing that the numbers corresponded to the number of letters in the English onomatopoetic sounds various animals make. 4163 was a rooster's "cock-a-doodle-doo", 33 was a dog's "bow-wow", 6 was a hamster's "squeak", and 0 meant no animal sounds could be heard. They in turn referred to the corresponding places where each could be found, which when put together made the phrase "under Teitan elementary's ginkgo trees" (in romaji). | ||

At first, Ran persistent refused because Fusae will get wet, but she insisted. She then said, when she grows up, Ran will buys one of purses that she designed in return as repayment towards her. She showed a gingko leaf towards Ran and said that it's the mark, and also said although she is not famous now, she'll try her best.

However, the postcard on which she had placed her clues were too complicated for him to solve and it took him forty years, and the help of Conan, to find the place again. While they did not openly talk about their feelings and despite their misconceptions they had about each other, there is a hint that their relationship is now beginning to grow.

Plot overview
Agasa's First Love Case (Manga: Volume 40: 410-412, Anime: 421-422)
Agasa met Fusae forty years before the current timeline, on the first day back from summer break the way to Okuho middle school. At the time, he was in 6th grade and she in the 4th at Teitan elementary. She was too frightened to pass the house which had a large dog who was owned by Mrs Choi. He helped her pass the house, and afterwards told him she was afraid of animals because she had been bitten by her pet dog when she was little, and she didn't have any pets from them on. To help her get over that fear of animals, he took her over to the house of a friend name Haruo Chouno who owned a hamster. She would later take care of the school's animals which she ended up enjoying taking care of the school chicken. She was very afraid of the hamster at first, but she got used to it after a while and overcame her fear of animals after a couple of months, and was able to walk past the dog unafraid. All this time, he had been walking with her to school every day.
One day, under the ginkgo trees behind Teitan elementary where the animals were kept, her hat blew off, revealing her brownish blond hair. She pleaded for him not to look at her hair, because she didn't want to be made fun of for looking different. He instead told her that he likes it and it is as beautiful as a ginkgo leaf.
Late in November, she didn't appear one day, and he found out she had suddenly moved away. Although she didn't tell him she was leaving, she had left a letter in his mailbox, saying that she will meet with him again ten years from that day, November 24, at "the place of memories". If he didn't come, she would wait again in another ten years. She left a riddle at the bottom of her letter "4163 33 6 0" and "Clue: Animals". Without knowing the answer, he had tried the house with the hamster thirty years prior and the house with the dog twenty years prior, but neither were correct. Conan wound up solving the riddle, revealing that the numbers corresponded to the number of letters in the English onomatopoetic sounds various animals make. 4163 was a rooster's "cock-a-doodle-doo", 33 was a dog's "bow-wow", 6 was a hamster's "squeak", and 0 meant no animal sounds could be heard. They in turn referred to the corresponding places where each could be found, which when put together made the phrase "under Teitan elementary's ginkgo trees" (in romaji).
She is waiting for him under the ginkgo trees with her step-father's friend, Billy. She doesn't tell him who she is, claiming to be someone who likes the colors of the ginkgo trees and that Billy is her husband. However, Conan recognizes her from ten years ago, when she decided to give Ran her umbrella after the girl told her she forgotten her's on that rainy day and Ran's hiding out at the gingko trees for now, when they meet each other after Fusae asked if Ran was waiting for someone. At first, Ran persistent refused because Fusae will get wet, but she insisted. She then said, when she grows up, Ran will buys one of purses that she designed in return as repayment towards her. She showed a gingko leaf towards Ran and said that it's the mark, and also said although she is not famous now, she'll try her best. Then, they made a pinky promise together about it, with Ran agreeing to it. Shinichi was there and witnessed the whole thing.
She doesn't want to tell him who she was because she thinks that the Detective Boys, who are with him, are his grandchildren and is afraid he would be heart-broken that she had waited for him for forty years. She doesn't think he had remembered her, but he reveals he does when Agasa calls after her that he still thinks ginkgo leaves are pretty. She wants to return again in ten years, but Billy says that he thinks their next meeting will be much sooner than that.
Fusae and Billy own conversation in their car, along Ran’s and Shinichi’s own memories of Fusae, indirectly revealing Dr Agasa first love to be Fusae Campbell who is the designer of the Fusae Brand.

However, the postcard on which she had placed her clues were too complicated for him to solve and it took him forty years, and the help of Conan, to find the place again. While they did not openly talk about their feelings and despite their misconceptions they had about each other, there is a hint that their relationship is now beginning to grow. When Agasa makes up an excuse to avoid demonstrating how the Fusae brand glass used in a murder, his real reason is he didn't want to further damage something with Fusae's name on it.
Offscreen Agasa learned that Fusae was Fusae Campbell which he recognised in The Clenched Scissors and the Clipped Letters case.

She then said, when she grows up, Ran will buys one of purses that she designed in return as repayment towards her. She showed a gingko leaf towards Ran and said that it's the mark, and also said although she is not famous now, she'll try her best. Then, they made a pinky promise together about it, with Ran agreeing to it. Ran managed to fulfill that present in the present timeline.

Trivia
- The Fusae brand is referenced in other episodes. In the anime, it can be heard as the Sai brand instead. This is actually the result of mishearing the name Fusae: as when speaking Japanese, it is common to devoice the /i/ and /u/ vowels between voiceless consonants. So, in the name /fusae/, because both the /f/ and the /s/ are voiceless consonants, the /u/ vowel between them is devoiced, resulting in a very weak and difficult to notice presence. With the absence of the vowel, the preceding /f/ would be heard as an exhale and not be heard as part of the word, leaving just /sae/, itself easily misheard as /sai/ when spoken fast. The word itself is still being pronounced as /fusae/, and not /sai/.
- Fusae Campbell's voice actress Eiko Masuyama also voices Fujiko Mine in the Lupin III vs. Detective Conan TV Special. Oddly enough, "Fujiko" (不二子) and "Fusae" have the same number of syllables, start with the same kana, and the "ji" in "Fujiko" means 2 (二), while the "sa" in "Fusae" can point to 3 (三), or "san".
