[He's expecting both her and Kaito to be lost causes, which is why he brought them up specifically. They're Shuichi's best friends, so...if they didn't want him around...
But he seems to believe Shuichi, relaxing again and letting go of him. He searches his face just a little bit longer, just making extra sure, and eventually sighs and nods again. And then he has the pillow in a tight hug again, nuzzling his face into it a little and closing his eyes. And luckily for Shuichi, he's out pretty quick after that, meaning the detective is free to get up and do as he pleases.]
