Conan came back to his senses and looked at Haihara Ai solemnly. He finally understood why this little girl looked so strange...
"Who are you? Why do you know these things?"
Conan's panic actually dissipated some of the fear in Haihara Ai's heart. She walked towards the house with her hands behind her back, "APTX-4869."
"What do you mean?" Conan quickly caught up.
"The name of the medicine you take." Haiyuan Ai walked into the room, brewed a cup of coffee by herself, and touched the side of the cup that radiated heat, and her face became a little more red.
"And I... am the researcher of this drug." Haiyuan Ai took a sip of coffee and cheered up a little, "In other words, I am also one of them."
At this moment, a loud noise suddenly came from the direction of the garage. Conan's eyes suddenly widened, and a terrible suspicion occupied his brain. His voice trembled slightly, and he pointed at Haiyuan Ai and asked:
"What did you do to the Doctor?"
Haiyuan Ai opened her mouth, but before she could speak, Conan had already turned around and ran towards the garage. Haiyuan Ai also put down the coffee in his hand and followed.
"Bah, bah, bah..."
Dr. A Li emerged from the garage in disgrace, and Conan hurriedly stepped forward to check, "Doctor! How are you? What happened? Did someone attack you, or did they install a bomb? Where are they now?"
Dr. Ari glanced at Conan doubtfully, "What bomb? I just found the rocket backpack that I had put there before in the garage, and suddenly my hands were itchy and wanted to try it again, but..."
"...It exploded in the end, right?" Conan looked blank, returning my worries!
"It looks like nothing is wrong, that's great, right, Edogawa-san?" Haihara Ai's voice sounded from behind Conan, "However, not every time it ends in a false alarm..."
Conan turned around and glanced at her warily, then looked at Dr. Ali and asked, "Doctor, who is this guy? Isn't she a relative of yours?"
Dr. A Li smiled innocently and scratched his head, "I picked it up. It was raining heavily that day, and she fell at the door of my house, so I brought her back."
Conan looked full of hatred, "Doctor, you don't even know her identity, how dare you bring her back?"
Dr. A Li defended in a low voice: "She looked so pitiful at the time, I couldn't pretend she didn't see it..."
"Then do you know that she is in the same group as the person who fed me medicine to make me smaller?" Conan looked anxious.
Dr. A Li nodded, with an indifferent expression, "I know, she started to have a fever after being exposed to the rain, and she kept calling your name in her dream. I thought she was an acquaintance of yours, so I left her here. Later she woke up.
Just tell me her identity."
The corner of Conan's mouth twitched, "So you knew it a long time ago, but you kept it secret from me?"
Dr. A Li turned his head and smiled sheepishly, "Xiao Ai said she wanted to tell you herself..."
Conan sighed. He was really tired from talking to Dr. A Li. He turned to face Haibara Ai and cheered up.
"So, what is the purpose of your coming here? If anything happens, just come to me. Don't implicate innocent people anymore. Even if you take advantage of a stupid good guy like Dr. A Li, you are too unrestrained and too annoying.
I look down upon you!"
Dr. A Li muttered to the side, "What do you mean by a silly good old man..."
Haiyuan Ai looked at Conan, her eyelids drooping, "The purpose...I don't know..."
Conan frowned, "What does this mean? What do you mean you don't know? You don't know what you are doing here?"
Hui Yuan Ai raised his head and said, "I'm here to find you."
"Looking for me?" Conan pointed to his nose, then looked solemnly, "Are you really going to kill people and silence them?"
Haiyuan Ai ignored his battle of wits with the air and continued to speak unhurriedly: "My codename in the organization is 'Shirley', and I have been responsible for researching that drug. Some time ago, my sister was killed by Gin.
He died, and I went to find him, but he was also imprisoned."
"Originally, I thought that given my importance to the research project, they would not deal with me arbitrarily. It was indeed as I thought at the beginning. Although the guards were very tight, they would still unlock my handcuffs during the research. Although
There are more restrictions than before, but at least I am still useful in their eyes."
"Until a few days ago, I discovered that the funding for the project team I was in began to be cut. They seemed to have set up a new research group to study some new things, and then I realized..."
Hui Yuan Ai showed a self-deprecating smile, "I have lost the value of my existence. They will soon attack me. Of course, useless tools will be destroyed. They will never be soft, not to mention someone like me who has resisted.
Stable elements.”
"Rather than being killed by them, it would be better for me to do it myself, so I secretly hid the medicine while I was researching it while they were not paying attention, and drank it at night."
"Kudo Shinichi." Haibara Ai suddenly called Conan's real name, "Before you, the probability of death when that medicine was used on a living person had always been 100%, and you were the first exception."
"I thought I would struggle in pain and then die like everyone else. Unexpectedly, I survived in the end and became smaller as well."
"So...are you defecting?" Conan looked at her suspiciously. This woman was so good at acting. She looked so much like the little girl who pretended to be afraid of ghosts before that he couldn't believe it easily.
"Well, after I became small, I immediately thought of you who were in the same situation as me, so I came here."
Conan frowned, "What is this? Do you really think your situation is the same as mine? Even if what you say is true, don't you bring it upon yourself? You work for that organization, and the kind of medicine you develop, isn't it?
Do you know how many people were killed?"
Hui Yuan Ai's body trembled and he was silent. After a while, he murmured: "Yes... I am just a sinner who has committed serious sins and can't see the light of day."
Hui Yuan Ai did not refute, this kind of life was enough for her.
Dr. Ali quickly advised: "Shinichi, don't talk about her like that. She has grown up in that organization since she was a child, and her sister has been controlled by the organization as a hostage. What can she do?"
Conan opened his mouth but stopped talking.
After a while, he calmed down and thought of another question, "People from the organization must be tracking the two of us everywhere now. If we know that we have become smaller, they will be able to find us here soon. Now we must find a way to hide first."
, we have to inform Xiaolan and the others that it’s best to hide with Officer Memu.”
Hui Yuan Ai shook his head slightly, "Don't use it for the time being. I've hidden the fact that this medicine will make people smaller. I've also changed your status on the record list to [confirmed dead]. No one will think of you."
It’s such a bizarre thing to become smaller.”
"What we really need to face now is actually the member of the organization we met at the murder scene today."
After listening to her words, Conan was slightly relieved, but when he heard the last sentence, he became confused again, "You said there are organized members among those people today? Who are they?"
