Chapter 67 [067] A spoiled boy is the best life
"You should thank me, detective, otherwise we wouldn't be standing here chatting so comfortably."

Xiao Ai glanced at Conan: "After all, among all the people who have taken APTX4869, only your note is missing, so the organization has sent people to sneak into your home and conducted a secret investigation on it. The developers naturally joined the investigation team."

"During the first inspection of your house, no signs of human habitation were found. However, during the second routine search, I was horrified to find that other items in the house had not changed, and the furniture was covered with There was dust, but only the children's clothes that had been in the storage room disappeared."

"Considering that in the process of animal experiments, it was very rare that adult mice degenerated into young mice after being injected with drugs, so I guessed that you might have turned into a child."

The more Conan listened to it, the more frightened he became. When the organization investigated his house, he didn't know anything.

"However, the degenerate young mouse didn't survive long and died soon, so I filled in your note with 'confirmed death' accordingly. So for the organization, you, Kudo Shinichi, are long gone The world is over."

Xiao Ai said slowly: "So as long as you keep a low profile and don't reveal your identity, then you are safe."

"What a joke, how could I be a child forever."

Conan couldn't help but growl.

"Ok?"

Xiao Lan poked her head out: "Conan, you are a boy, you can't bully Xiao Ai, otherwise..."

She directly twisted the spatula in her hand into a twist, and after giving Conan a hard look, twisted the "twist" back to its original shape.

Conan: "..."

A faint smile appeared on the corner of Xiao Ai's mouth: "If you don't want to be a child forever, then you have to cooperate with me, because only I can develop the antidote."

She raised her head and stared at Conan: "I heard that Kudo Shinichi once appeared, what's going on?"

"What else can happen, of course I changed... Wait, how do you know?"

"Of course I listened to Auntie Concubine."

"How did Auntie Feiyingli know?"

"Nonsense, of course Xiao... Sister Xiaolan told her."

Xiao Ai originally wanted to say "Xiao Wulang", but she changed her words abruptly.

Conan did not doubt him, anyway, Xiaolan did often contact Feiyingli, he sat down, frowned and said, "I am also very surprised, since you are here, I just want to tell you, you come to study..."

He explained in detail the process before and after his transformation, and Xiao Ai also frowned.

"It must have nothing to do with the water you drink, so there is only one possibility left, and that is the bottle of Laobaigan Baijiu."

"But I didn't drink that wine."

"Perhaps it's because of the smell. According to the ancient books of the Hua Kingdom, fumigation with high-grade liquor is also effective in treating hidden diseases of the human body."

Saying that, the two cubs raised their heads at the same time, and looked at the wine cabinet leaning against the corner not far away, which was densely filled with all kinds of wine, all of which were treasured by Kogoro.

Among them was the unfinished bottle of Laobaigan.

Conan's heart beat fast, and he couldn't wait to run to the wine cabinet. Regardless of the height difference, he climbed up with both hands and feet, opened the door of the cabinet, and held the bottle of Lao Bai Gan in his arms.

"Hey, Conan, what are you doing?"

Before Conan could react, he grabbed his back collar with one hand, and snatched the bottle of Laobaigan with the other.

"Sister Xiaolan, give it back to me..."

Conan tried to pretend to be a child and act like a baby to get away with it

"What do you want wine for? I warned you a long time ago, you are too young to drink, why didn't you listen?"

Xiao Lan somewhat hated iron for being weak: "It seems that I'm too used to you on weekdays. Starting today, I must be strict with you, so that you won't spoil Xiao Ai again."

Saying that, Xiaolan carried Conan like this, and was going to find the stick that beat Conan's ass last time.

"You misunderstood, Sister Xiaolan, Conan's wine is for Uncle Kogoro."

At the critical moment, Xiao Ai spoke.

"really?"

Xiaolan stared at Conan, what else could Conan say, for the sake of her own butt, she could only nod quickly.

"Even so, the wine cabinet is so high, it's dangerous for you as a child to climb up and down."

Xiaolan put Conan down, and said sharply: "Forget it this time, if there is another time, I will definitely not let you go lightly, do you hear me?"

Seeing Conan nodding his head obediently again, Xiao Lan, who had a serious face, suddenly smiled like a peach blossom: "The meal is ready, you are ready to wash your hands, and call Dad to eat."

As she spoke, she carried the bottle of wine and went to the third floor humming a little tune.

"I didn't expect that a famous high school student, a detective, would act coquettishly."

Xiao Ai said quietly.

"You shut up."

Conan's face was hot, and he didn't dare to look at Xiao Ai.

"Hehe, is this your attitude towards your savior?"

"The savior? Who? You? Don't be kidding. You are the murderer who developed poison. I don't know how many people died in your hands."

Xiao Ai's face immediately turned cold when she heard the words: "It is true that I developed APTX4869 well, but what can I do? My parents, my sister, including me, are all controlled by the organization. Now, our family, I'm the only one left to survive."

Looking at Xiao Ai's gloomy expression, Conan also knew that he had spoken too much, and after a moment of silence, he whispered: "I'm sorry, I didn't mean it."

Xiao Ai took a deep breath: "There is no need to apologize, you are right. Now that things have happened, this is my retribution. If Auntie Concubine hadn't saved me, I might have gone underground to reunite with my family long ago."

Conan frowned: "By the way, you haven't explained clearly why you took the poison, and you also met Aunt Fei Yingli."

"Let's wash our hands first, lest sister Xiaolan come to remind me again."

Xiao Ai and Conan came to the bathroom and while washing their hands, Xiao Ai briefly explained why she took poison.

"Your sister...what's her name?"

There was an ominous premonition in Conan's heart. Xiao Ai's sister's experience gave him a feeling of deja vu.

"Miyano Akemi..."

Conan just wanted to breathe a sigh of relief...

"...But her public name is Hirota Masami."

Conan: "!!!"

Xiao Ai pretended not to see Conan's shocked eyes, and continued to talk about how she took poison, how she became smaller, and how she escaped from the base...

"...I ran aimlessly in the heavy rain that night, until I fell to the ground. Just before I lost consciousness, I seemed to see my mother coming to pick me up in a trance."

Xiao Ai's voice was choked with sobs, but she adjusted immediately, and tried to maintain a calm voice: "After I wake up, I will know that it was Aunt Concubine who saved me."

"So, Aunt Fei Yingli doesn't know your real identity?"

Conan frowned.

Xiao Ai gave him a white look: "Uncle Xiaowulang and sister Xiaolan don't know your real identity either."

"Yes."

Conan suddenly stretched out his hand to Xiao Ai: "It seems that from now on, we will form an alliance temporarily."
