Well, I wonder how accurate that translation is. From the translation it looks like this:

"Just a normal student" can be a shocking plot twist, but in Gosho's world, this would never happen. Actually, in anime/manga, most of the transfer students are never just "normal students"

sorry. my xponese fail you again.

we know sera is importance.sera came into beika and transferred in teitan high.

but she wont revel her real reason to her class mate right? so for people who live in beika (including ran, sonoko and other) she must look llike a normal transfered student.

that is what i mean.

Conan and Haibara were also transfer students. And not to forget Eisuke. And of course Hakuba. And I think Akako.
Yeah, I can see a pattern here. ::)

On the other hand, that one boy from the DBs class that arrived after Haibara and participated in the "Kobayashi MIssing" "case" did turn out to be a normal student. Or maybe he is just good in pretending. ::)

Really? Well, I never looked at the original scans, just on the posted scanlation.
Ohh wait... the last symbol is the ♡?!? I thought it was a "ji". My fault then.

It was the girl? Yeah, that is who I meant anyway.  :)

I was referring to recurring or major characters. One shot characters (especially in DC) don't fit into this trope and most of the time, they aren't important at all.

The usage of heart symbols in dialogue (in manga, particularly) doesn't necessarily refer to actual "love". It's more used to showcase happiness/affection, but not necessarily in a romantic way.

This case has made me giddy with joy about an ensuing plotline, for once. Plus Ayumi's sensual fascination with Haibara is amusing.

My prediction is that Serra is Bourbon, because Gosho really makes a big deal out of her absent breasts, and her noteworthy knowledge of detective stories and sleuth attributes. Also, she already knows way too much about Conan, and is digging heavily for more. A bit too suspicious for my tastes.
Okiya Subaru will present himself to be Akai. The vase is peculiar, but it's probably simply a creative way to announce where Haibara has been hiding. 
It has long been an axiom of mine that the little things are infinitely the most important.

From her embarrassed reaction, i think she's genuinely just a flat-chested girl

Question - since when did Conan become the aim of Bourbon? And how Sera's "absent breasts" are a clue for being Bourbon?

You're hoping for too much here. This case might lead to something or have some more clues, but I find it hard to believe that Gosho will really let Haibara be found with a vase. It's just too weird (not to mention, a terrible way) to let the B.O. find out about Sherry.

I guess it's just hard for some people to accept that
