Upon hearing this, Makise Kurisu shuddered and nearly stumbled down the stairs.

She turned her head angrily, a blush creeping onto her fair cheeks, her face slightly puffed out:

"You...! Humph!"

Xia Jia watched her assistant, who was shuffling down the stairs in slippers, and muttered to herself, stroking her chin:

"Is it a clone or the real one? Never mind, I must remember to take a picture next time."

……

Fifteen minutes later, Makise Kurisu carried Miyano Shiho, who had been washed, out of the bathroom.

Shaga briefly checked her condition and used healing magic to treat most of her external injuries.

Looking at the little girl who was still delirious and talking in her sleep, Xia Jia frowned:

"For abnormal conditions like colds, healing magic is useless; it seems they need purification."

Makise Kurisu thought for a moment: "How about trying the antidote?"

Xia Jia took out a test tube and carefully poured the medicine into Shiho Miyano's mouth.

With a cough, Shiho Miyano slowly woke up: "Where am I?"

"Oh, you're awake." Shaga forced a smile. "Congratulations, this is the organization's newest experimental base. You can't escape now!"

Shiho Miyano's pupils contracted instantly, but she quickly lowered her guard:

"Although I don't know how you found out about the organization, you don't have that same smell as those people."

Oh dear, I forgot, this girl has the Black Organization's radar ability.

Shiho Miyano rolled her eyes: "And, her acting is terrible."

Xia Jia didn't seem to care: "Alright. Congratulations, you got it right."

Shiho Miyano wrapped the thin blanket around herself tighter and asked:

“Aren’t you even a little curious about my current state…? Did you already know me? Or… are you in the know? Enemies of the organization? The FBI? Or the Sakura Province police?”

Shaka smiled:

"Okay, stop speculating, Shiho Miyano. We've already heard about your situation from your sister."

"Now, I want to know your plans for the future."

"elder sister?"

Shiho Miyano paused for two seconds, then suddenly jumped up and grabbed Shaka by the collar:

"My sister? Where is my sister? Is she still alive? Has she been captured by the organization?"

Looking at Shiho Miyano, whose eyes were filled with excitement and hope, Xia Jia revealed a malicious smile:

"I'm sorry, your sister is currently in prison, and she will most likely face life imprisonment or even the death penalty."

"What?" Shiho Miyano looked at Shaka in disbelief and asked again:

"You guys, you must have a way to save her, right? Are you friends? Or her lover? Yes, and there's [Rye Whiskey]! Shuichi Akai! Are you Shuichi Akai's comrades?"

Shaga gave a strange look: "Sorry to disappoint you. Neither of them are..."

"Then..." The little girl was stunned.

Makise Kurisu crossed her arms and sighed helplessly.

"The guy in front of you is the one who arrested your sister and put her on trial. How could he possibly help you get her out?"

"Huh???" Shiho Miyano let go of Natsuka's collar, and the duck sat on the sofa, falling into a state of self-isolation.

Chapter 263 My Little Sister Ai Haibara!

"Yes, that's right, I'm the one who sent your sister to prison."

Shaka remained calm and confirmed Makise Kurisu's words once again.

He looked at Shiho Miyano with interest, seemingly waiting for her reaction.

However, none of the anger, fear, pleading, or sorrow that Shaka had predicted were present.

On Shiho Miyano's young face was a calm expression that seemed to have seen through the illusions of life.

"Your expression tells me that you're waiting for me to make a fool of myself."

Xia Jia scratched his face.

Shiho Miyano sneered: "Looks like I've disappointed you. Sorry."

Shaka opened her mouth, but was interrupted again by Shiho Miyano:

"You want to ask, why am I not angry?"

Xia Jia nodded obediently.

Shiho Miyano sighed:

"You should be doing things according to common sense."

"After all, my sister is an outer member of the organization. Let's put aside the past for now, but robbing the bank is a fact. There's no point in arguing about it. As long as she doesn't fall into the organization's hands, I'll be content."

Makise Kurisu took a liking to the little girl, but if Miyano Shiho acted unreasonably, she wouldn't let Shaka take the child in.

What are your plans for the future?

Shiho Miyano thought for a moment: "Could I see my sister? She should be allowed to visit, right?"

Shaka bluntly stated, "That would expose you to Gin's gaze."

Shiho Miyano looked slightly disappointed.

She was well aware, of course, that there were many undercover agents from various organizations within the Metropolitan Police Department, making it completely unsafe.

Shaka added, "We can record your words and send them over, or we can have her respond. We have connections in the Metropolitan Police Department!"

Shiho Miyano didn't rush to agree; instead, she looked at Shaka warily.

"what do you want to do?"

She knew very well that the person in front of her must have had a purpose in picking her up.

She soon received her answer.

“APTX-4869! We’re very interested in that.”

"This is impossible!"

Upon hearing the term, Shiho Miyano refused without hesitation.

She no longer wanted to research that drug and cause it to harm more people.

Xia Jia smiled and said, "I think you should listen to our reasons."

He pointed to his assistant, Jun, and said, "This is Dr. Makise, the founder of the time machine theory. In fact, she has made great progress in this field, and it is already possible to simply send a message back to the past."

Shiho Miyano's eyes widened: "A time machine? That thing really exists?"

Shaga candidly stated, "We need to leverage the unique side effects of APTX-4869 to further our research and development of time machines."

"I think we should have more in-depth research results in the field of anti-aging."

Go back to the past...

Shiho Miyano fell silent. Could such a thing really be done?

Furthermore, if an organization possesses such technology, it could simply memorize a few lottery numbers and thus eliminate the need for murder to fund its operations.

What exactly is this group with this technology planning?

Seeing Shiho Miyano hesitate, Xia Jia added:

“Young lady, you're penniless right now. Joining our research will not only earn you a substantial salary, but also give you weekends off. Your sister wants to avoid the death penalty, or even try to get a ten-year sentence. Hiring a top lawyer will cost a fortune…”

Upon hearing this, Shiho Miyano immediately stood up:

"I agree! When are you going to hire a lawyer for my sister?"

Shaka and Makise Kurisu exchanged a glance and teased each other:

"You're so realistic."

"I didn't have a choice, did I? Are you expecting a primary school girl like me to live alone?"

"With your abilities, you shouldn't starve to death."

"Ha, at my age, no one will even hire me for odd jobs."

“You can claim to be 18 and become a high school teacher.”

Are you referring to some anime/manga reference?

The two exchanged sharp words, each saying a sentence in turn.

Xia Jia took a deep breath: "You're really not cute at all."
