Conan Rick's Investigator

Isn't this body shrinkage permanent?

Could it be that Haibara Ai can grow bigger or smaller like Mario, and when she grows bigger, she will have one more life like Mario, and when this life is lost, she will become smaller?

This conjecture is really beyond common sense, but the fact that the human body can become smaller is itself beyond common sense.

Qin Zhibo plans to use soul-searching techniques to look at Haibara Ai's memory later, but it is more important to treat her injuries now.

"In this case, do we need to treat the wound?" Qin Zhibo asked.

Cheng Shi silently observed Huibara Ai's wound for a while and judged: "The entire penetrating wound seems to have almost healed. The only wound left is the skin tissue. It only needs to be sutured."

"But I don't understand..."

The hand holding the scalpel trembled slightly, because as a doctor, Ma Sheng knew very well what the body's self-healing ability meant.

It is impossible for humans to possess this kind of self-healing ability...

At this moment, Qin Zhibo put his hand on Cheng Shi's shoulder, stopping his will from falling.

Cheng Shi turned his head and saw Qin Zhibo wearing a mask with a determined look in his eyes.

"Let's check the other wounds..."

This look made Chengshi cheer up again and began to check the remaining penetrating wounds.

However, no matter how the examination was performed, the results were the same: the tissues, blood vessels, and nerves that had penetrated the wound had all healed, and all that needed to be done was to suture the skin.

With Qin Zhibo's consent, Dr. Cheng Shi manipulated the needle and thread in his hand and began to suture.

In order to make the healed scar less noticeable, Cheng used the thinnest nylon thread, which was more time-consuming and labor-intensive in actual operation.

When the stitching was completed, a battle-damaged version of Haibara Ai appeared.

……

Looking at Haibara Ai breathing steadily on the hospital bed, Asano Minami breathed a sigh of relief.

To be honest, when he first saw the child's injuries, he was not sure whether his medical skills could save this young life.

But fortunately, the worst did not happen.

However, the girl's rescue was not due to her own superb medical skills, but due to some inexplicable reasons...

"Mr. Qin..."

After taking off his surgical gown, Ma Chengshi stood behind Qin Zhibo. Although he didn't say anything, he obviously wanted to know the reason behind all this.

"Please wait, let me be alone..."

In response to Qin Zhibo's words, Cheng Shi stopped for two seconds and walked out of the ward obediently.

Sitting in front of the bed, Qin Zhibo looked at Huibara Ai who was still under anesthesia. Her delicate face covered with bandages had a hint of coldness and stubbornness that did not belong to her age.

Qin Zhibo put on the magic extractor and placed his hand on Haibara Ai's small forehead.

With the use of the soul-searching technique, Qin Zhibo, with her eyes closed, seemed to return to the scene of the memorial service and saw her "adventure" with Conan.

Only the suit and tie below the thigh, and the lights suddenly turned off...

Handkerchiefs and crystal chandelier rings falling from the sky...

Qin Zhibo used Haibara Ai's perspective to see with his own eyes how Conan obtained the investigation points that should have belonged to him.

There is no doubt that if Conan had not put these things that could serve as evidence into his pocket, Qin Zhibo would have solved the case faster.

No wonder I wandered around for a long time but found nothing. It turns out that all the investigation points were hidden away by this detective boy!

Afterwards, Haibara Ai and Conan were separated by the surging crowd and were knocked unconscious by someone behind them.

When I woke up, I was in room 404, with my laptop, drinks, MO, and cleaner's uniform...

Haibara Ai originally wanted to give up, but Conan persuaded her to come back.

"Qin Zhibo" was mentioned in Conan's persuasion, which surprised the original Qin Zhibo.

This was also the first time that Qin Zhibo heard Conan's true opinion of him. If Conan knew that Qin Zhibo knew about this, he would definitely be socially ruined on the spot.

Then, Conan's reminder reminded Haibara Ai of the principle that "cold + white wine = getting bigger", and Haibara Ai started to "ton ton ton ton".

after that……

The following scene was too bloody and brutal. Qin Zhibo grasped the main part of it and ended the soul-searching technique.

Through the soul-searching technique, Qin Zhibo learned some new information that he didn't know before.

It seems that the people in this black organization use the names of wines as code names to call each other. The investigators cannot see code names, nicknames, or other such names, so Qin Zhibo did not know about it before.

After observing for a while, the correspondence between code names and real names should be like this:

Gin - Kurosawa Jin

Vodka - Uozuka Saburo

Pisco - Kenzo Masuyama

And the code name Gin mentioned on the phone should be another member of the Black Organization at the venue...

Vermouth – Sharon Wynyard

And the former member of the organization - Miyano Shiho, whose code name is "Sherry".

The name of the wine for all members sounds somewhat similar to the names of all animals in the Beast Brotherhood.

In addition, Qin Zhibo also heard about the organization's style of work from Haibara Ai.

Anyone involved in organized crime will be eliminated, and the existence of the organization must never be known to others.

If Haibara Ai is exposed this time, Dr. Agasa, who took her in, will definitely be the first to suffer.

But after thinking about it carefully, Qin Zhibo realized that he seemed to be the first one to pick her up on a rainy day...

Fortunately, after reviewing Haibara Ai's memory again, Qin Zhibo felt that Gin did not discover Shirley's identity after she became smaller, which means she was not exposed.

The only person who knew Haibara Ai's true identity was Kenzo Masuyama, and this Kenzo Masuyama was also killed by Gin himself.

Praise gin!

However, based on this, Qin Zhibo felt that it would be better if as few people as possible knew about this organization.

Especially given Ma Chengshi's current condition, it is definitely inappropriate for him to know about this matter.

Ever since witnessing the brilliance of Aldebaran on Moon Shadow Island, Chengshi's willpower has been much lower than that of ordinary people.

This also directly led to his concentration being reduced a lot compared to the time when he secretly avenged his enemies, just like being three points weaker after being whitewashed.

A doctor who saves lives and heals the wounded is more suitable for him than a scheming spy.

Just like why Conan has been living in the Mori family but never told his childhood sweetheart Mori Ran about these things.

With this in mind, Qin Zhibo called Cheng Shi in.

……

Outside the ward, Cheng Shi sat quietly on a bench in the dim corridor.

In Chengshi's mind, he was still reviewing what had just happened.

A child with a gunshot wound, miraculously healed...

A strange, bizarre, and even curious story slowly unfolded in Chengshi's mind.

Just then, Qin Zhibo's voice came from the ward.

"come in……"

Cheng Shi stood up immediately like a robot that had received an order.

……

In the ward, Qin Zhibo was sitting in front of the bed.

Cheng Shi walked over and the two of them looked at the pale little face of Huihara Ai lying on the sickbed.

"I was planning to tell you this..."

"But after careful consideration, I feel that letting you know this now will do you no good, and it is extremely unfair..."

"So when the time is right, I will tell you..."

"Or maybe this little girl will tell you in person..."

"If you believed me once, please always believe me."

"That's it……"

Qin Zhibo's tone was deep. Although there was no fancy confession, every word revealed his true feelings.

The serious atmosphere remained frozen for about ten seconds before Cheng Shi finally spoke.

"I believe you..."

Ma Shengshi's answer was equally concise and to the point, without any embellishment.

The two smiled at each other and discussed their next strategy.

……

Dr. Agasa's house in Beika-cho 2-chome.

Conan paced anxiously in the living room, thinking frantically about how to deal with the fact that Haibara Ai was kidnapped by the Black Organization.

If the Black Organization kidnapped Haibara Ai for the purpose of obtaining experimental subjects, her life should not be in danger in the short term.

However, there is no doubt that anyone she came into contact with during this period must be eliminated.

Myself, Dr. Agasa, and even Hattori Heiji who was far away in Osaka...

Although based solely on the relationship chain of Haibara Ai, the Black Organization should not be so cruel as to kill Ran Mouri, who is completely unaware of the situation and has only met her a few times.

But if the organization discovered that she was Kudo Shinichi, then Ran Mouri would definitely not be spared.

The chain of relationships starting with himself will allow the Black Organization to start a new round of assassinations.

Maori Ran, Maori Kogoro, Kudo Yusaku, Kudo Yukiko...

These people's names will appear on the assassination list.

In fact, if the Black Organization has discovered that APTX-4869 can make people smaller, they will definitely follow this clue to track down the elementary school students around Haibara Ai.

By then, his repeated shocking remarks at crime scenes would surely attract the attention of the Black Organization.

There is also Kogoro Mouri, who suddenly became a famous detective. The time of his fame coincided with the time of his disappearance. Hattori Heiji also relied on this clue to find the Mouri Detective Agency.

The more Conan thought about it, the more he felt that he had too many flaws during this period, so many that they were like honeycombs on a hornet's nest!

"hateful!"

Conan clenched his fists and gritted his teeth.

At this time, Dr. Agasa, who was standing by, asked: "Shinichi...what should we do now?"

Glancing back at Dr. Agasa, whose expression had calmed down a bit, Conan said seriously, "Let's notify my parents first."

"They know some people in the United States, and maybe they can think of some way to deal with it..."

"understood!"

Dr. Agasa nodded vigorously and quickly ran to the phone.

But just as he picked up the phone to dial Kudo Yusaku's number, Dr. Agasa turned his head to Conan, "Shinichi, do we need to ask Mr. Qin? Maybe..."

As soon as Dr. Agasa asked the question, Conan shouted.

"no!"

"You must never tell him about this!"

Frightened by Conan's tough tone, Dr. Agasa was stunned.

In fact, the reason why Dr. Agasa thought of calling on Qin Zhibo for help was because Conan mentioned Qin Zhibo in the car.

But now, Conan has new considerations about whether to tell Qin Zhibo.

The current situation is that the enemy is in the dark and we are in the light, and the black organization holds an absolute advantage.

In this situation, continuing to recruit anyone else to fight against the black organization would be a selfish act of dragging others into the water.

A building is about to collapse and one tree cannot support it.
