"What's wrong?"

It felt very strange to see Xiao Ai suddenly focus on the pile of information and suddenly turn to the changes in himself, Gao Yuan asked suspiciously.

In this regard, Xiao Ai looked at Gao Yuan in a daze for a long time, and Gao Yuan didn't dare to ask more questions when he saw Xiao Ai's reaction, so he stood in place and waited for Xiao Ai's next response.

Then, after a while, Xiao Ai seemed to come back to his senses from his doubts, first calmed down, and then looked at Gao Yuan solemnly, and began to say seriously:

"Gao Yuan, I carefully studied the pile of materials...... Do you know what kind of drug Cointreau is working on? ”

Hearing this, Gao Yuan shook his head-

After all, this is not the plot in the original work, and I basically can't understand the drug information, so Gao Yuan really doesn't know.

One can only guess:

"Something to do with your father's research?"

"Relevant!"

Definitely, Xiao Ai nodded, then thought about it, and said:

"To put it simply, the drug studied by Cointreau is equivalent to a side effect inhibitor of the drug 'APTX4869' - that is, the side effects that will occur after taking 'APTX4869' will be suppressed by this drug......"

Saying this, Xiao Ai thought about it again, and then shook his head and said in self-denial:

That doesn't seem entirely ...... Because the idea of making this drug is the same as that of my father, but the ultimate goal is different, so the final effect is different...... So, it's not so much a side effect inhibitor as an adjunct to my father's research...... Unfortunately, the information here is not complete, and there is no corresponding finished drug, so I can only judge what the pharmacology of this drug will ultimately achieve based on these limited data......

"However, if I follow Cointreau's train of thought and combine my research experience with 'APTX4869', I have a hunch that the final effect of this drug will definitely complement the efficacy of 'APTX4869', and at the same time suppress the side effects of 'APTX4869', so that 'APTX4869' can play a real role!"

Saying this, Xiao Wai looked at Gao Yuan with a hint of deep thought in his eyes, and added:

"According to Cointreau's thinking, broadly speaking, for example...... Normally, taking an incomplete APTX4869 causes the cells to become zero, resulting in death, which is the manifestation of the side effects caused by the incomplete drug of the APTX4869...... Or, like me and Edogawa, the unexpected degeneration into childhood is actually a manifestation of incomplete side effects! And this drug developed by Cointreau was developed to suppress this side effect! ”

One word, listening to Xiao Ai say these words very solemnly, Gao Yuan's expression became more and more surprised the more he listened-

Restrain......

What are the side effects of "APTX4869"?

This kind of thing is not in the original work at all, and it ......

"Cointreau is a genius, and he developed this equally fantastic drug based on my father's ideas! Moreover, because the basic idea is the same, although the final efficacy is different, the antidote that is effective for 'APTX4869' can also act on the drug he developed! So ......"

At this moment, when he finally talked about the shocking thing he had just thought of, Xiao Ai stared at Gao Yuan's expression, which meant something-

"Do you know what that means? Gao Yuan......"

Hearing Xiao Ai say this, no matter how dull she was, combined with Xiao Ai's expression looking at her at the moment, Gao Yuan also realized what she wanted to say-

"For me and Edogawa, we were supposed to die from the drug because of the APTX4869, but due to the sudden effect of the accident, we not only died, but also degenerated into childhood. This phenomenon existed before the human example, because there had been a similar special case in animal experiments with mice, so I knew and simply understood the reason for this special phenomenon. But......

"Gao Yuan, you...... I have also taken 'APTX4869' and have not died, but unexpectedly, you still maintain your original body shape, and it looks as if 'APTX4869' has no effect on you at all.

"However, for me and Edogawa, it was an antidote that could temporarily restore our bodies to their original state, but it had the opposite effect on you! You usually seem to be normal, but after taking something that is an antidote for me and Edogawa, you instead show a special condition like us, after taking 'APTX4869', and unexpectedly degenerate into childhood! Moreover, after the effect of the antidote has passed, the change caused by the effect of 'APTX4869' will be restored! Looks......

"It's like the effect of 'APTX4869' actually has an effect on you, but in normal times, this effect is suppressed by some kind of inappropriate reason. And after taking what was considered an antidote to us, this inhibition was broken, and the effect of the 'APTX4869' that should have been suppressed was effective. And when the antidote has passed, the inhibition effect takes effect again, so you're back to the way you were!

"This situation, even I, has been puzzled before this!"

Very seriously, Xiao Ai recounted the abnormal condition of Gao Yuan's body, and emphasized the sentence "before that" at the end.

At this point, Gao Yuan's expression was finally completely surprised-

So, is it difficult to ......

"The purpose of Cointreau's research is to suppress the side effects of 'APTX4869' in the broad sense. And because the basic idea is the same, there is a high probability that the antidote that works on 'APTX4869' will also take effect on the drug studied by Cointreau......"

Looking at Gao Yuan's shocked and somewhat dazed reaction, Xiao Wai felt more and more surprised in his heart, and continued:

"Therefore, your current condition is a bit like the condition that you may show after taking this drug that Cointreau has studied, because of the two drugs in your physical reaction!"

Speaking of this, Xiao Ai was a little nervous and cold, and immediately got up from his seat, came to Gao Yuan, and couldn't help but show a somewhat frightened and worried expression and asked:

"Lofty! You tell me honestly! You know Kyosuke, is it really just a coincidence? Before you investigated the Asami Taro affair, did you really know anything about his Cointreau identity? Also, your bloodline is related to Kyosuke, and your appearance is also very similar to Kyosuke...... All this, what the hell is going on! ”

One after another, Xiao Ai asked Gao Yuan a little incoherently, but in this regard, Gao Yuan was also at a loss-

So, ...... yourself.

No, it should be said that the original body had taken the kind of drug developed by Cointreau? And this drug reacted with the "APTX4869" that Louis fed to him later, resulting in a completely different situation from Xiao Wai and Conan now-

The reason why once you take the antidote, you will become smaller is because you have another medicine in your body!

Thinking of this, Gao Yuan was also a little incredulous, not to mention Xiao Wai-

This kind of thing, I didn't have any clue at the beginning, how could I think of it?

And it's no wonder that Xiao Wai would ask such a question.

You may have taken a drug developed by Cointreau, but if you don't know anything, how can you say it?

As usual, anyone would think so!

But......

"I ...... I really don't know ......."

Lowered his head, helpless, but lofty, he could only answer like this...... (End of chapter)
