Arriving at Kudo Shinichi's home, Kudo Shinichi, who had shrunk, changed out of his ill-fitting clothes that had been soaked by the rain. After wiping his body with a towel, he came to his room and began to rummage through the memories of his childhood.
clothes.
"What! Guns...gun smuggling?"
After listening to Kando Shinichi's narration, Dr. Agasa said in surprise.
"kindness."
Kudo Shinichi said while looking for clothes, "I saw that person using this to blackmail another person."
"So, they gave you poison to silence you?"
Dr. A Li asked, also holding a towel and wiping his body that had been soaked in the rain.
Of the three people present, only Gao Yuan held an umbrella and didn't get caught in the rain.
"Besides gun smuggling, what else did you hear?"
Gao Yuan asked.
"kindness……"
After listening to Gao Yuan's question, Kudo Shinichi also began to recall——
"I've been waiting for a long time, Mr. President!"
In Dorobiga Amusement Park, Kudo Shinichi followed the man in black to a remote corner and lost track of him. Just when he thought he had lost track of him, the sound of conversation not far away made Kudo
Shinichi was convinced that the other party was still nearby.
So he looked for the sound and hid in the corner. Kudo Shinichi saw the man in black and a bald middle-aged man holding a suitcase in his hand.
"I...I came alone as promised."
The man said to the man in black in a panic.
"Well, I know you came alone."
The man in black said, "I have confirmed this on the roller coaster."
"Quick! Give me that thing quickly!"
Hearing this, the bald man said in a panic and eagerly.
"Don't worry."
The man in black said, "Take out the money first!"
In response, the man opened the suitcase and showed the man in black the interior filled with 10,000 yen bills, "Take it, now you have no objection!"
After checking the money inside, the man in black took the suitcase with satisfaction.
"Okay, the deal is done."
"Then, give me the negatives quickly!"
The man said eagerly.
The man in black took out a pile of items wrapped in white paper and threw them to the man. The man nervously caught them and held them in his hands.
"Take it. These are the evidence films and photos of your company's gun smuggling. Don't do bad things again!"
Smiling playfully, the man in black seemed to be teasing.
"I want you to talk more!"
Seeing that he had obtained the items, the man became bold and retorted, "Compared with what your organization does, what we do is nothing."
"Hello!"
Hearing this, the man in black suddenly changed his attitude and began to say viciously, "How much do you know about us?"
The man was taken aback by this.
"We only took a mere 100 million yen from you and let you live! If you understand, just close the company and go somewhere else! We just want to do that on that piece of land.
Just build a new laboratory!”
The above is the conversation between the two people that Kudo Shinichi retold from memory.
"After that, I was discovered by another accomplice of the man in black, and he drank what he said was a newly developed poison, and the result became what I am now!"
Kudo Shinichi said, somewhat reluctantly and helplessly.
"So that's it."
Hearing this, Dr. Ali couldn't help but said, "It seems that the poison has not been fully developed yet, so it has a wonderful effect and makes your body smaller!"
"That's how it should be."
Kudo Shinichi finally dug out his childhood clothes from the box where he kept his old belongings, Kudo Shinichi said.
In this regard, Gao Yuan didn't say much, but was thinking about another thing - but building a new laboratory? This detail feels very worth pondering!
After all, for the organization, compared to a mere 100 million yen, building a new laboratory for the land where the president's company is located is more like the real purpose of the organization!
but why?
What kind of situation requires building a new laboratory?
Is the original laboratory not enough? Or is a new experimental team emerging? Or...
Thinking about it, the figure of Miyano Shiho when he left today flashed in Gao Yuan's mind, and then he couldn't help but shook his head and paused his thoughts - there were too few clues and too many possibilities, and it was useless to think too much.
"Please, Doctor."
Kudo Shinichi started to put on clothes in the room at this time, "You are a genius, please make a medicine to restore my body to its original state!"
Feeling a little embarrassed, Dr. Ali touched his head and said, "Don't embarrass me, I don't even know the ingredients of the medicine you take."
"Then, as long as we find the location of those people and get the medicine, there's hope, right?"
After getting dressed, Kudo Shinichi walked out of the house and said.
At this moment, Kudo Shinichi was wearing his childhood clothes, a white shirt, a red bow tie, a blue suit, and gray suit shorts.
"Well, as long as I have that medicine, maybe I can think of something."
The three of them came to the study room of Shinichi Kudo and his family together. Dr. Ari said this after hearing what Shinichi Kudo said.
"But now there's a tougher problem."
Gao Yuan said seriously, "Kudo-kun, please don't tell anyone except us that your body has become smaller!"
"Hey? Why?"
Puzzled, Kudo Shinichi asked.
"From your description, it should be an organization that kills people without blinking an eye, and also conducts various illegal transactions, but we are completely ignorant of it."
Gao Yuan explained, "It can be seen that this organization must be no small matter. And you, Kudo Shinichi, are a well-known Japanese detective. If they know that Kudo Shinichi is still alive, they will definitely come to kill you...even, for
If you silence me, even the people around you will not be spared!"
"That's right."
Dr. Ali also said seriously, "In order to ensure the safety of those around you, your true identity is Kudo Shinichi. It is a secret between us and must not be told to anyone else! Of course, that includes Xiaolan!"
"
Looking at the serious and solemn expressions of Gao Yuan and Dr. A Li, Kudo Shinichi lowered his head silently - "Yes, I understand."
"Shinichi, are you at home?"
It was at this time that Mao Lilan's voice came from the door, followed by the sound of the door closing.
"Really, since I'm back, I might as well answer the phone!"
With a somewhat complaining tone, Mao Lilan said, "Your key is still inserted in the door!"
"Yes...it's Xiaolan!"
In panic, the shrunken Kudo Shinichi hurriedly hid behind Dr. Agasa, who was wider, and said at a loss.
"Oops, hurry up and hide!"
Dr. A Li also said in a panic.
"Where to hide?"
Hearing Mao Lilan's footsteps outside the door getting closer and closer, Kudo Shinichi said in panic.
In this regard, Gao Yuan was unhurried. He walked behind Kudo Shinichi, who now had the body of a seven or eight-year-old child, grabbed him by the back of his collar, picked him up, and put him under the desk in the study.
, then Gao Yuan walked to the bookshelf on the side and pretended to choose books.
"Ah? Dr. Agasa...and Mr. Akechi?"
The door to the study room was opened, and Mao Lilan couldn't help but wonder when she saw the two people in the room.
"Oh, it's Xiaolan...Long time no see!"
Somewhat panicked, Dr. Ali said at a loss.
"Where's Shinichi?"
After closing the door, Mao Lilan asked.
"Well, he was still here just now..."
"He just received a case commission and has only been out for a while."
Interrupting the words of Dr. Ali who sounded panicked, Gao Yuan pretended to take a book from the bookshelf and flipped through it.
Because of Takato's help, Dr. Ari finally breathed a sigh of relief, but Kudo Shinichi had a problem - because he saw Kudo Yusaku's glasses in the desk drawer and wanted to be a simple disguised Kudo Shinichi.
He put his glasses on as soon as possible, but due to the power of the glasses, he was temporarily dazzled and hit the corner of the table, making a noise that attracted Mao Lilan's attention.
"Who is that child?"
Following the sound, Mao Lilan came to the desk and saw Kudo Shinichi squatting on the ground with his back to her, having just pushed off the lenses of his glasses, so she couldn't help but ask curiously.
"You are really shy. Turn your face quickly."
Just when Dr. Ali was about to explain, Mao Lilan, who was squatting down, turned Kudo Shinichi around and faced him.
Seeing this, Gao Yuan watched the development of the situation with a faint smile - it seemed that everything was still proceeding according to the original track.
"This child... is so cute!"
Seeing the shrunken Kudo Shinichi who was wearing glasses, Mao Lilan couldn't help but feel girly and hugged him into her arms, which made Kudo Shinichi blush with satisfaction.
"By the way, who is this child?"
After letting go of his hand, Mao Lilan couldn't help but ask.
"He is the child of Dr. Ali's distant relative. Because his parents were suddenly transferred to work abroad and could not take care of him, they were sent here."
Gao Yuan stepped forward directly to explain, which made the overwhelmed Dr. A Li relax. However, Dr. A Li soon discovered the problem in Gao Yuan's words and looked at Gao Yuan in surprise.
"Hey, why do you say they are my relatives?"
Leaning close to Gao Yuan's ear, Dr. A Li asked in a low voice.
"Because I have no relatives."
Gao Yuan said calmly.
"My name is...Conan! My name is Edogawa Conan!"
When Gao Yuan and Dr. A Li were discussing the identity of the shrunken Kudo Shinichi, over there, Mao Lilan had already asked for Kudo Shinichi's name. In desperation, Kudo Shinichi looked at the books on the bookshelf behind him.
I gave myself this name - and thus, Edogawa Conan was officially born!
Kudo Shinichi, no, the current Edogawa Conan, after saying his name, seemed to be shy and hid behind Dr. Agasa.
"By the way, Mr. Maori, can this child stay at your house temporarily?"
Taking advantage of this moment, Gao Yuan stepped forward and stopped in front of Dr. A Li and Conan, and said respectfully.
"Are you kidding me!"
Conan said in panic, but Dr. Ali covered his mouth.
"Why?"
Mao Lilan said slightly surprised.
"Because Dr. Ali and I were in a dilemma just now. Although the child's parents temporarily entrusted him to Dr. Ali's care, after all, Dr. Ali really doesn't know how to take care of children, so he just came to discuss it with me and Kudo-san. But I
As detectives with Kudo-san, we have to go out frequently to investigate incidents, and it is inconvenient to take care of him... so..."
Gao Yuan said slightly embarrassed.
"sure."
After thinking for a moment, Mao Lilan said, "But I have to discuss it with dad first."
"Is it is it!"
Dr. A Li immediately stepped forward and said, "Then you are willing to take him in! Hahaha!"
Seemingly very happy, Dr. Ali covered Conan's mouth the whole time, and then hurriedly ran out of the study with Conan.
Seeing this, Mao Lilan felt a little strange.
"Moori-kun, it's great that you can take him in. Just now Kudo Shinichi left first because of solving the case, but this put Dr. Agasa and I in a difficult situation."
Gao Yuan said immediately, stopping Mao Lilan from exploring what Dr. A Li and Conan were doing out there, but he only blocked it for a while in embarrassment.
Fortunately, Dr. Ali soon discussed the matter with Conan and returned to the study.
Conan raised his hands happily, ran to Mao Lilan, hugged Mao Lilan's legs, and said, "I want to go to my sister's house!"
Outside Kudo's house, Gao Yuan and Dr. Ali watched Mao Lilan leave with Conan. At this point, the story of "Detective Conan" finally got to the point.
After returning home and going to the basement, looking at the half photo of Miyano Shiho and thinking back to today's agreement with Hirota Masami, Takayuan felt a sense of urgency——
