Conan: I'm really not the mastermind behind the scenes

Chapter 172 Gin is on his way to work overtime

"Da da da……"

In a certain laboratory, when they heard footsteps coming from outside, several researchers shrank their heads, looking ugly as if their big time was approaching.

The electronic door opened and Miyano Shiho came back. She rushed in eagerly before the door was fully opened, causing a whirlwind in her white research uniform.

She noticed the petri dish and saw the turbid culture fluid. Her expression froze and she turned towards the sink.

Wash your hands and dry them, pick up the gloves and check for any damage or holes, and put them on quickly if there are no problems. After completing the basic operations, she walked to the experimental table.

There is a microscope placed on the experimental table. It was used not long ago and the temporary film was not removed. She looked down, and after seeing the picture clearly, her face became even more ugly.

Under the prototype lens, the cells are almost covered with small black dots. If you look closely, you can find that these black dots are constantly moving.

This made Shiho Miyano feel even worse because something went wrong in the experiment and he had to ask Glenn to send him back quickly.

Black glue bug?

No, black gumworms do not cause turbidity in culture fluids, and they are not that toxic to cells.

They are so densely distributed and swimming around so much that they are definitely bacteria.

…But why is it so serious? She could literally publish a new paper on the spot, titled: How to grow cells in bacteria.

Miyano Shiho's temples were pounding.

She calmly looked at the cells that she had carefully raised for two months, but were now completely contaminated and could not be rescued even by the God of Biology, and turned to look at the researchers behind her.

"what happened?"

She is fifteen years old and they are all older than her. In a Japanese workplace where seniority is important, they should have been the ones to question her.

Unfortunately, this is an organization, and what matters is not seniority, but ability. As the only one with a code name here and the person in charge of a research project, Miyano Shiho is qualified to hold them all accountable.

"It has not been investigated yet."

One of them replied, rubbing his hands uneasily.

He has a slight mysophobia, and he felt sick all over after seeing this scene just now. He has not recovered from it until now. He wants to rub the entire laboratory with alcohol.

"I just added double antibodies in the morning, and the result... I have kept this batch of reagents in a low temperature environment of -20°C. After the cells had problems, I checked them to make sure there were no bacteria."

In response to his reply, Miyano Shiho turned around to check other things. Others looked at her cold expression and were afraid to say anything.

The incubator is fine.

The culture medium is fine.

The rest is...

Miyano Shiho looked at the serum.

……

The culprit was found.

Miyano Shiho looked at the serum smear and felt that he didn't need to eat tonight.

Serum is the basis of cell culture experiments. The quality of serum can determine the quality of cell growth.

Different feeding conditions, different species, the same assembly line environment or subtle differences in staff operations will lead to differences in serum from different batches.

Therefore, if you want to ensure a smooth experiment, try to avoid mixing serum from different batches. Miyano Shiho has always done this in the past.

And this batch of serum...

The mysophobic member behind Miyano Shiho whispered: "Miss Shirley, I saw the news last night. The raw material manufacturer of this batch of serum seems to be planning to change the production line... So we probably, should, have to..."

redo.

Miyano Shiho instantly understood what he was going to say.

——These can no longer be used. All previous experiments using the same batch of serum cannot be carried out and must be redone!

Miyano Shiho trembled when he thought of this.

A few strands of brown hair fell off silently and fell onto her shoulders.    …

Miyano Shiho didn't step out of the laboratory until night.

She shook her head vigorously to shake out all the messy experiments, and then sent an email to her sister, saying that she had to work all night these days so that she did not need to contact her and pay attention to her safety.

After explaining a series of things, she came to the lounge.

It's dinner time now, and there are only two people in the lounge. One is Glenn, who is sitting on the sofa with the rabbit in his arms - because she has to experiment all night, he probably has to stay with her - and the other is...

"Juneric?"

Seeing him, Miyano Shiho was a little surprised, but not surprised.

Junerik, another researcher with a code name in this institute.

The organization is more comfortable giving code names to underage researchers than adults. He was abandoned by his parents and was adopted by an organization at the age of thirteen, last year. A year younger than her, he had finished college before the adoption and was in charge of another drug development project.

This resume made Miyano Shiho feel strange.

Children are often abandoned at birth or at an early age, and Zhu Ruineke, like her, has graduated from college. Are there any parents in the world who raise their children to finish college at a young age and then suddenly abandon them?

...Did his parents really abandon him voluntarily? Are they still alive now?

Miyano Shiho, who has been in the organization since she opened her eyes and knows the organization's behavior very well, has had many conspiracy theories. Out of sympathy, she usually pays more attention to Junerik.

Junerik was very timid and had always been bullied before. She came forward to help him, and after Glenn came, his situation became better - the second-in-command's henchmen were much more intimidating than she was - So he likes to pester them.

He is responsible for a drug that can change people's memory. It is said that the progress is going well, and he can even find time to assist her in experiments or chat with Glenn. Glenn was patient with him, too.

Junerik said worriedly: "I just heard someone discussing in the restaurant that there was an accident in your laboratory?"

Miyano Shiho sat down like a ghost and said in a faint tone: "Yes, a large number of serums have been completely scrapped, and all experiments have to be redone."

Junerik gasped.

Glenn frowned too. He is not a researcher, but he respects them very much. If he doesn't understand something or needs attention, he will ask directly. He knows what this means.

Miyano Shiho noticed that the screen of his mobile phone was on, as if he had just contacted someone.

"Do you want me to..."

Just as Junerik was about to speak, perhaps to offer help, several researchers from another laboratory passed by the door of the lounge and greeted him.

Miyano Shiho knew at a glance that they were asking people to go back to work: "It's okay, you can go about your business. It's not uncommon for experiments to be repeated. I can handle it."

"Then I'll come and help you when I have time."

Junerik got up from the sofa and looked at Glenn with admiration and dependence in his eyes: "Glenn, I'm leaving first. If you have time, I hope you will talk to me more. It's just you and me here. Shirley is good to me, just like a brother and sister..."

Glenn nodded, and Junerik reluctantly left.

It wasn't until he was completely invisible that Miyano Shiho calmed down the expression on her face. She whispered: "Glenn, I think this pollution is very strange..."

Although it is normal for emergencies to occur in experiments, researching new drugs is a difficult and long process, but today, it was a bit sudden.

To say it was an accident is more like man-made.

"I know. Some members reported it to me before you came, and I also told other people in the organization." Glenn said while looking at her.

Miyano Shiho noticed his gaze. She remembered a certain code name and her expression changed again.

Different from the anger in the laboratory, her face was pale now, completely from the fear in her heart.

"I told Rum, but this kind of inexplicable destruction and suspected traitors are often caused by..."

——Gin is responsible.
