"Gray Plains, thank you for your hard work."

Seeing Xiao Ai walk into the bedroom, Gao Yuan, who was originally lying on the bed, sat up, took the porridge and medicine brought by Xiao Ai, and under Xiao Ai's attention, after eating half a bowl of porridge, Gao Yuan picked up the cup of medicine-

Seeing this, Xiao Ai's heart couldn't help but feel very nervous, quietly staring at the cup of medicine, and slowly moved to the corner of Gao Yuan's mouth.

However, when Gao Yuan just took a sip of the potion, his expression became extremely ugly, as if he had drunk something extremely unpleasant-

"This tastes ......"

Just wanted to complain, Gao Yuan looked at Xiao Ai looking at his eyes, did not continue to say anything, drank the cup of medicine hard, and then started from his throat, he felt extremely uncomfortable, and there was a feeling of turning the river and the sea in his stomach.

In this regard, Gao Yuan looked at Xiao Ai suspiciously, and asked curiously:

"Gray Plains...... This medicine ......"

Although it is a medicine that I have never drunk before, there is no reason why the powder is worse than Chinese medicine!

Seeing this, Xiao Ai lowered her head, thought for a moment, and then squeezed out a sentence from her mouth-

"I'm sorry ......"

Hearing this, Gao Yuan was stunned, and he didn't quite understand why Xiao Wai apologized to himself.

However, as the body gradually became hot, the rate of heartbeat became faster and faster, and a sharp pain that spread to the whole body almost instantaneously finally made Gao Yuan aware of the problem-

This feeling!

Although it should have been more than half a year since the last time I felt this way in reality, but at the end of the dream ten years later, I had just felt this feeling-

So, almost subconsciously, Takato understood what was going on-

"Ash ...... Original ......"

Struggling in pain, even the sound has become intermittent, Gao Yuan curled up, trembling incessantly on the bed, and beads of sweat kept coming out of Gao Yuan's body.

Seeing this, Xiao Ai was a little unbearable, but looking at Gao Yuan's state at the moment, Xiao Ai was very sure that what he was experiencing now should be the same as the pain caused by taking the APTX4869 at the beginning-

"Sure enough...... Gao Yuan, you are really ......"

In his heart, Xiao Ai was already very sure that his judgment should not be wrong - although his behavior this time would definitely make Gao Yuan angry, he really couldn't help it......

You can do whatever you want to me afterwards!

But as the developer of APTX4869, what I plan to do is not a poison at all, so for the first survivor who may have survived taking APTX4869, I want to know more about you anyway!

Observing that the body began to have a strong body fever, accompanied by symptoms such as difficulty breathing, dizziness, and rapid heartbeat, Xiao Wai suppressed the emotions in her heart and forcibly calmed herself down, not wanting to miss any detail in the process.

Then, gradually, Gao Yuan's body began to change in pain.

However, with the emergence of changes, witnessing all the small sorrows, from the beginning of the barely able to maintain a calm mood completely detached, the eyes became extremely frightened-

did not think that Gao Yuan would return his body to a more mature appearance with the stimulation of "white dry wine" as expected, but on the contrary - Gao Yuan's body actually shrunk!

Gao Yuan, who turned into a six or seven-year-old boy, fell on the bed without strength, and the clothes he was wearing became extremely ill-fitting-

"How...... How could it be! ”

Looking at Gao Yuan, who was the same as himself in front of him at this moment, he had become a child, Xiao Wai looked at each other in disbelief, and shouted in a daze.

But at the same time, as the horror subsided, when reason regained its dominance, Xiao Wai's thoughts couldn't help but become extremely exciting—

"Is it possible...... His symptoms turned out to be the complete opposite of himself and Edogawa! ”

Thinking of this, Xiao Wai couldn't help but take off his slippers, climbed on Gao Yuan's bed, reached out and picked up Gao Yuan, who was curled up and sleeping on the bed because of his detachment, and then looked at Gao Yuan's face at this moment with a gentle expression-

"So, did you subconsciously take a step back when you saw me?"

The jungle of the island, the first sight in the moonlight......

Xiao Wai recalled the scene at that time, and couldn't help but think about it in her heart-

At that time, even if I hated the organization's real-life experiments, once I knew that you were a special case, I would let the organization bring you back anyway......

"Gray Plains ......"

When Gao Yuan woke up, he found that what he saw in front of him was Xiao Ai's face with a bitter smile, and then, Gao Yuan suddenly noticed that he had become a child at this time, and was still lying on Xiao Ai's lap-

Suddenly, Gao Yuan turned his face a little shyly:

"You...... I saw ...... all."

Whether it was becoming a child, lying on Xiao Ai's lap, who was also a child, or the process of turning into a child was witnessed by Xiao Ai throughout the whole process, Gao Yuan felt extremely ashamed.

For a while, Gao Yuan couldn't find how to question Xiao Ai's behavior of letting herself eat the white dry wine by mistake.

"I'm sorry, I just ...... So curious......"

Lowering his head, a trace of sadness appeared on his bitter smile, Xiao Wai said.

In this regard, hearing Xiao Ai's words, Gao Yuan closed his eyes, was silent for a moment, and then supported his weak body, moved away from Xiao Ai's lap, and kept a distance from Xiao Ai before sitting up tremblingly-

"It's come to this, I can't hide it from you, Gray Plains......"

Looking at Xiao Ai, Gao Yuan thought for a moment, and then couldn't help but say:

"As you can see, I did take APTX4869. But why he didn't die and remained alive as he was, I don't know......"

"High ......"

Seeing that Gao Yuan woke up and didn't question himself for the first time, Xiao Ai's eyes widened and he felt a little surprised, and then he couldn't help but say:

"I was just trying to make sure you actually took APTX4869, and I was curious that Edogawa's 'white dry sake' could make him change back to his original state temporarily...... That's why I did it......"

At this time, Gao Yuan was in a complicated mood-

Originally, I was really curious about my drug reaction, which was completely different from Conan and Xiao Ai, but because I didn't know how to explain to Xiao Ai why I had taken APTX4869, I never mentioned it to the developer of the drug.

Thinking like this, Takato hesitated for a moment, but after he was tricked into drinking "white dry wine" by Hattori Heiji due to a cold in Osaka, he found out about the abnormal situation of his body and told Xiao Ai.

"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have been so hasty in getting into your secret......"

After listening to Gao Yuan's frank explanation, Xiao Wai, who lowered his head, couldn't help but apologize sincerely, and at the same time his mood was a little low:

"I'm sorry, I won't do this again. I won't ask you about your past until you're willing to tell me the truth......"

"But!"

As he spoke, Xiao Ai suddenly said solemnly:

"No third person knows about APTX4869 you have survived and kept your original appearance!"

Speaking of which, Xiao Wai's emotions were a little excited:

"Your current state is like the effect of APTX4869 medicine, for some reason, suppressed by your body...... But after all, inhibition is only inhibition, and after you catch a cold or are stimulated by a substance in the 'white dry wine', this inhibition in your body will become ineffective, so that the effect of the medicine can be temporarily exerted......"

Saying that, Xiao Wai's expression was serious:

"But no matter what, there's something in your body that can inhibit the effects of APTX4869, that's an indisputable fact! Therefore, the reason why your body can suppress the effect of the drug is more valuable for the development of this drug than the principle of 'white dry sake' that temporarily changes the Edogawa back to its original state! ”
