76 Edogawa Conan
When he came to Kudo Shinichi's home, Kudo Shinichi, who had become smaller, changed out of the ill-fitting clothes that had been wet in the rain long ago, wiped his body with a towel, and then came to his room and began to rummage through his childhood clothes.
"What! Gun...... Gun smuggling? ”
Listening to Shinichi Fuji's account, Dr. Asasa said in surprise.
"Yes."
Kudo Shinichi said as he searched for his clothes, "I saw that the man was blackmailing another person with this. ”
"So, they gave you poison to kill you?"
Also holding a towel and wiping his body in the rain, Dr. Asa asked.
Of the three people present, only Gao Yuan kept holding an umbrella and did not get rainy.
"What else do you hear besides gun smuggling?"
Takato asked.
"En......"
After listening to Takato's question, Kudo Shinichi also began to recall-
"I've been waiting for a long time, Mr. President!"
In the Dorobiga amusement park, Kudo Shinichi follows the man in black to a remote corner and loses his tracks. Just when he thought he was lost, the sound of a conversation not far away convinced Kudo Shinichi that the other party was still nearby.
So looking for the sound and hiding in the corner, Kudo Shinichi saw the man in black and a bald middle-aged man with a suitcase in his hand.
"I ...... I came alone as promised. ”
The man said to the man in black in a little panic.
"Well, I know you're here alone."
The man in black said, "I've already confirmed this on the roller coaster. ”
"Quick! Hurry up and give me that thing! ”
Hearing this, the bald man said a little panicked and eagerly.
"Don't worry."
The man in black said, "Take out the money first!" ”
In this regard, the man opened the suitcase and showed the inside of the 10,000-yen bill to the man in black, "Take it, you have no opinion now!" ”
After checking the money inside, the man in black took the suitcase with satisfaction.
"Okay, it's done."
"So, hurry up and give me the negatives!"
The man said eagerly.
The man in black took out a stack of items wrapped in white paper and threw it to the man, who nervously caught it and held it in his hand.
"Take it. Here are the evidence negatives and photos of your company's smuggling of guns, so don't do any more bad things! ”
Laughing, the man in black seemed to be teasing.
"I want you to talk more!"
Seeing that the things were in hand, the man also boldly retorted, "Compared to what your organization has done, this little thing we have done is nothing. ”
"Hey!"
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.
"We only accepted 100 million Japanese from you, and we spared your little life! If you understand it, you can quickly shut down the company and go to the field! We're just trying to build a new lab on that ground! ”
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, who poured the kind of poison that he said was newly developed, and it turned out to be what it is now!"
Kudo Shinichi said, a little unwilling and helpless.
"I see."
Hearing this, Dr. Asa couldn't help but say, "It seems that the poison has not been fully developed, so it has a wonderful effect and makes your body smaller!" ”
"That's how it should be."
Finally digging out his childhood clothes from the box where his old belongings were stored, Kudo Shinichi said.
Gao Yuan didn't say much about this, but was thinking about another thing - but how about building a new laboratory? This detail feels very interesting!
After all, for the organization, it is more like the real purpose of the organization to build a new laboratory for the land where the president's company is located, compared to a mere 100 million yen of money!
But why?
What kind of situation does it take to build a new laboratory?
Is the original laboratory insufficient? Or has a new experimental team emerged? Or......
Thinking about it, the figure of Shiho Miyano when he left today flashed in Takato's mind, and then he couldn't help but shake his head and pause his thoughts - there are too few clues, too many possibilities, and it is useless to think too much.
"Please, Doctor."
Kudo Shinichi began to get dressed in the room at this time, "You're a genius, let's make a medicine that will restore my body to its original state!" ”
Somewhat embarrassed, Dr. Asa touched his head, "Don't embarrass me, I don't even know the ingredients of the medicine you took." ”
"So, as long as you find the location of those people, there is hope for getting the medicine, right?"
After getting dressed, Shinichi Kudo came out of the house and spoke.
At this moment, Shinichi Kudo is wearing the clothes of his childhood, 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 find a way."
The three of them went to Kudo's family's study together, and Dr. Asasa said after listening to Shinichi Kudo's words.
"Now, however, there is a more difficult problem."
Gao Yuan said solemnly, "Kudo-san, don't tell anyone about your body getting smaller except us!" ”
"Huh? Why? ”
Puzzled, Kudo Shinichi asked.
"From what you've described, it's supposed to be a murderous organization that conducts all sorts of illegal transactions, but we don't know anything about it."
Gao Yuan explained, "It can be seen that this organization must be extraordinary. And you, Shinichi Kudo, are a well-known detective in Japan. If you let them know that Kudo Shinichi is still alive, he will definitely come and kill you...... Even, in order to extinguish your mouth, even the people around you will not let go! ”
"That's right."
Dr. Asa also said solemnly, "In order to ensure the safety of the people around you, the fact that your true identity is Shinichi Kudo is a secret between us, and you must not tell anyone else!" Of course, Xiaolan is also included! ”
Looking at the serious and serious expressions of Takato and Dr. Asasa, Kudo Shinichi silently lowered his head - "Well, I know." ”
"Shinichi, are you home?"
It was at this moment that Maolilan's voice came from the door, followed by the sound of the door closing.
"Really, since you're back, why don't you answer the phone!"
With a complaining tone, Maoriran said, "Your key is still on the door!" ”
"Yes...... It's Xiaolan! ”
Panicked, Shinichi Kudo, who had become smaller, hurriedly hid behind Dr. Asasa and said a little overwhelmed.
"Oops, you hurry up and hide!"
Dr. Asasa also said in a panic.
"Where are you hiding?"
Hearing the footsteps of Maoliran getting closer and closer outside the door, Kudo Shinichi said in a panic.
In this regard, Gao Yuan was not in a hurry, walked behind Kudo Shinichi, who was now only a seven or eight-year-old child, grabbed his back collar, picked it up, and put it under the desk in the study, and then Gao Yuan walked to the bookshelf on the side, pretending to be a book selection.
"Huh? Dr. Asasa ...... And Mr. Wise? ”
The door to the study was opened, and Mao Lilan couldn't help but wonder when he saw the two people in the room.
"Oh, it's Xiaolan...... Long time no see! ”
A little flustered, Dr. Asa said a little overwhelmed.
"What about Shinichi?"
Closing the door, Maoriran asked.
"Well, he's still there......"
"He just received a case commission, and he has only been out for a short time."
Interrupting Dr. Asasa's words in a panicked tone, Takato pretended to take a book from the bookshelf and flip through it.
Because of Takato's help, Dr. Asa finally breathed a sigh of relief, but there was a problem on Kudo Shinichi's side - because he saw Kudo Yusaku's glasses in the drawer of the desk, Kudo Shinichi, who wanted to do a simple cross-dress, put the glasses on, but because of the power of the glasses, he was dazzled for a while, hit the corner of the table, and made a noise that attracted Maoliran's attention.
"Who's that kid?"
Following the voice, after Mao Lilan came to the desk, he saw Kudo Shinichi who was squatting on the ground with his back to him, and had just pushed off the lenses of his glasses, so he couldn't help but ask curiously.
"You're so shy. Turn your face around. ”
As soon as Dr. Asa wanted to explain, Moriran, who was crouching down, had already turned Kudo Shinichi around and faced him.
Seeing this, Gao Yuan looked at the development of the situation with a faint smile - it seems that everything is still going according to the original trajectory.
"This kid ...... So cute! ”
Looking at the smaller Kudo Shinichi wearing glasses, Mao Lilan couldn't help but burst into a girl's heart, and hugged him in his arms, which made Kudo Shinichi blush with some satisfaction.
"By the way, who is this kid?"
After letting go of his hand, Mao Lilan couldn't help but ask.
"He is the child of a distant relative of Dr. Asasa. Because his parents were suddenly transferred abroad to work and could not take care of him, they were sent here. ”
Takato stepped forward directly and explained, which relieved Dr. Asasa who was at a loss, but soon Dr. Asa found out about the problem in Takato's words and looked at Takato with some surprise.
"Hey, why do you say it's my relative?"
Leaning into Takato's ear, Dr. Asa asked in a low voice.
"Because I don't have any relatives."
Indifferently, Gao Yuan said.
"My name is ...... Conan! My name is Conan Edogawa! ”
When Takato and Dr. Asa were discussing the identity of the smaller Kudo Shinichi, over there, Mao Lilan had already asked Kudo Shinichi's name, and in desperation, Kudo Shinichi looked at the books on the bookshelf behind him and gave himself this name - at this point, 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, Maori-san, can this child stay at your house temporarily?"
Taking advantage of this moment, Takato stepped forward and stopped in front of Dr. Asa and Conan, and said pleasefully.
"What are you kidding!"
Conan said in a panic, but Dr. Asa covered his mouth.
"Huh?"
Mao Lilan said with a little surprise.
"Because I was still struggling with Dr. Asasa just now. Although the child's parents temporarily entrusted him to Dr. Asasa to take care of him, after all, Dr. Asa really can't take care of the child, so he just asked me to discuss it with Kudo-san. But as detectives with Kudo, I often have to go outside to investigate the incident, and it's not convenient to take care of him...... Therefore......"
Gao Yuan said with a slight embarrassment.
"Yes."
After thinking about it for a moment, Maolilan said, "But I have to discuss it with my father first." ”
"Yes, yes!"
Dr. Asa immediately stepped forward and said, "Then you are willing to take him in!" Hahaha! ”
Apparently happy, Dr. Asa covered Conan's mouth the whole time, and then hurriedly ran out of the study with Conan.
Seeing this, Maorilan felt a little strange.
"Maori, it's great that you can take him in. Just now, Kudo Shinichi left first by solving the case, but I was embarrassed to die by Dr. Agasa. ”
Gao Yuan immediately said, preventing Mao Lilan from exploring what Dr. Asa and Conan were doing when they went out, but he only stopped him awkwardly for a while.
Fortunately, Dr. Asa soon discussed the matter with Conan and returned to his 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 to live!" ”
Outside the gate of Kudo's house, Takato and Dr. Asa watched Mao Lilan leave with Conan, and at this point, the story of "Detective Conan" finally entered the main topic.
When I got home, I came to the basement, looked at the half of the photos of Shiho Miyano, and thought about today's agreement with Masami Hirota, Takato felt a sense of urgency-
"Louis" is actually the code name of Megumi Hanada!
