Sera appeared again after Okiya and Amuro appeared last series. The main point of this series is Conan asked Sera "Sera-neechan, could it be you and I..."

Spoiler:
Now I'm insanely curious as to what Conan was trying to say...
"I suppose he could have changed. I myself have noticed my growing resemblance to a daffodil.”

Have met before?
are siblings?
hunt the same organization?
are victims of Aptx?
are link together with red string of fate?
have the same person as girl of dream,that's Ran nee-chan?
Yeah, we were going crazy with it in the spoiler cbox lol.
Spoiler:
Personally, I think it's either "have met before?", something about both knowing akai, or "are searching for the BO?"
IMO, "Have met before?" is the least likely, since if they met while he was Conan we'd know about it, and if they met as Shinichi that would be essentially coming out and saying, "I am Shinichi." As for why I don't think they've met before, even as Shinichi, I'm thinking that her line about knowing for a long time that Conan was a Holmes fan is because Akai told her about Conan. This also explains why she is so attached to him, since he is not only a link to her brother (who she thinks is dead) but he also shares his deductive abilities and reminds her of him. Of course, this is just speculation at this point, I'm sure there's other reasons for her actions.

Maybe Conan was trying to say '...are searching for the same person?' (referring to Akai) I would feel creeped out if someone asked me that.

Well considering that it's almost 100% certain that Conan knows exactly where Akai is, he probably wouldn't phrase it like that, but I get what you're saying. I couldn't really think of a way he would ask about it either. But if it is about Akai, maybe it will lead to an Akai-Sera confrontation/reunion? Not to get anyone's hopes up for that happening in the next case, since Sera and her big mouth would probably give Akai away to Bourbon, and that would be bad
Or '...are interested in the same person?'(referring to Amuro while making a creepy face ) I hope Gosho isn't trolling and it wasn't actually anything important
the case looks OK, that old man looked like he was going to be killed from the first panels I saw him in. But the more interesting part seems to be what Conan said and was going to say next to Sera

And the answer....
Spoiler:
...have the same breast size?
Sera: °_____°
Lol this is the only cop-out I'd even consider forgiving
EDIT: Gah okay I know I keep adding to my theory (which I'm sure has already been discussed a lot) but...
Spoiler:
After completely rereading Sera's intro case, I was reminded that when she's setting up the trick she asks if where she's putting the wheelchair is a good spot. Conan, through Shinichi, replies that he's not there so he would have no way of knowing, but I think she was trying to trick him into revealing that he was actually at the crime scene - http://www.dctp.ws/V73-Reader/V73-8Read/A11.html
She obviously knows that Conan is solving the crimes himself, don't really need examples for that. This knowledge may have, as I said earlier, come from Akai telling her about Conan. Now, I just remembered that during the Cold Case files Sera says that she used to read the Night Baron books all the time when she was a kid. Well, around that time Shinichi's dad also happened to be bringing Shinichi around to crime scenes. I'm sure this was reported in the news somewhere, and if Sera was such a fan that she read about Yuusaku's real life cases as well she would know about Shinichi. If you were little Sera reading about another kid being allowed to go to a crime scene, you would look up to them, since they get to do what you've always wanted (solve mysteries) and he's just a kid so that gives you hope that you could do it too, right? So I think maybe Sera saw young Shinichi as something of a role model. This, then, would explain why she's known for a long time that Shinichi was a Holmes fan, and explain even more why she's so attached to him - imagine saving the life of the person that you look up to!
The only thing I can think of that may refute this is that Sera doesn't seem to know about the one case that Yuusaku 'gave up on'. While Ran also tells her that Yuusaku used to consult on cases, IMO this actually strengthens my theory, since Ran provides this information without prompting from Sera, and Sera never seems to indicate that she thinks it's odd that a writer would be helping solve crimes.
So, considering the theory that Sera received the picture of the DB from Akai's personal effects, if said theory is true then Sera would have immediately recognized Shinichi and began investigating, and the clues that she would find are relatively obvious and I'm too lazy to type any more so I won't list them

Well, whatever is, I don't think it's too major; Conan didn't look nervous when he was asking her, so he's not apprehensive at how she would respond. I still hope it's something good though...
