The Phantom Thief of Heart! But Conan.

"So, what you are saying is that APTX4869 can indeed rejuvenate a person's body, but it cannot change the real 'core' of a person, so even if he really changes from an old man to a young man, the inside will still be corrupted."

The neon night view of Tokyo outside the car window was reflected on the window. Haihara Ai nodded slowly while looking at the light and shadow outside the window.

"I am not the real inventor of APTX4869. When you see Belmode, you may have already guessed." Taking a deep breath of the leather-scented air in the car, Haihara Ai relaxed and leaned on the soft leather seat. , "I was probably not even born when Belmod took similar drugs."

"Yes, although there is no doubt that you are a unique genius, but no offense, just based on the few years you have worked in the organization, it is still impossible for you to independently develop such an amazing drug." Still being wise Karasawa, dressed as Goro, held the steering wheel and nodded.

Haibara Ai agreed with Karasawa's guess and explained: "Well, according to the information I have come across, the practice of organizations using drugs to poison assassination targets while observing symptoms has long existed. Kudo can only be ranked second on the list. The last few. I initially felt that the direction of my improvement of the drug should be to reduce mortality, but their attitude was very subtle."

There is one thing to say, indeed.

If nothing else is mentioned, I will mention it in the future. The Haneda Koji case, which is closely related to Rum, happened 17 years ago, when Miyano Shiho was probably just born.

Karasawa has always understood Bermod's hatred of Miyano Shiho as a continuation of her parents' feelings and an ongoing hatred for this drug research and development line.

The existence of the ageless witch Belmod itself is excellent evidence for this argument.

"They don't seem to care whether the drug will kill people. In our second-phase animal experiments, the mortality rate was close to 100%, which is intolerable in ordinary research and development, but their focus is more on the overall drug response of the dead animals. On. I once thought their purpose was to develop a murderous drug that would not be easily detected."

Hui Yuan Ai lowered her head and carefully looked at her little arms and legs that now belonged to a child.

That's why she was so surprised after discovering the degeneration of the experimental mice and the disappearance of Kudo Shinichi.

Looking back now, she, the conductor of the experiment, was probably the one who was kept in the dark.

"So, do you think the reason why Belmod hates you so much is because she has experienced the side effects of this drug?" Tangze said, raising his eyebrows in amusement.

There is no doubt that Bellmode is younger, at least younger than the Sharon Wynyard she once played.

When Sharon appeared in the public eye, she was similar to the age of Chrissy Wynyard, who she is currently using, indicating that she was already a user of APTX, or silver bullet, decades ago.

And Super Game spoiler Karasawa knows very well that unlike survivors of new drugs such as Conan and Miyano Shiho, she has serious side effects, including but not limited to insomnia, nightmares, pain, etc. Although she looks young and beautiful, The scenery is endless, but no one knows how much a heavy price has been paid.

"It's more than that. Tang Ze, when a person gets older, his or her entire physiological system is actually completely different from when he was young." Haiyuan Ai opened her five fingers and raised them in front of her face, watching the light pass through her little The palm of the hand, "metabolism, endocrine, blood circulation... Have you heard that when people reach a certain age, their sleep time will become shorter and shorter, because melatonin levels will continue to decrease. Organs begin to fail and tissues begin to age. This is Belongs to the final chapter of life.”

Stopping at a traffic light intersection, Tang Ze turned his head and looked at the little girl who was smiling at the shadow of his palm.

The fragile confusion and childishness faded from her face, and she looked at her hand, as if touching something invisible through it.

The person speaking at this moment was Miyano Shiho, who was omnipotent in his own field, just like Athena.

Although she has a lot of weakness and pessimism in her personality and behavior, as a true young genius, she certainly has her own arrogance and self-control.

"I understand now. The effect of APTX is like reversing the continued shortening of telomeres and forcibly turning the scale of life counterclockwise, but these traces of aging have already caused trauma to them. Just like Belmod, according to As far as I know, her sleep is so short that it can be ignored. Even if she barely relies on medicine to fall asleep, she can hardly sleep peacefully..."

After saying this, she turned her head, met Tang Ze's gaze, and smiled brightly.

"That's why they need cognitive mysteries. They need to literally change the 'soul'... just like you're doing in the lab.

"I was originally thinking that they couldn't have such magical powers as You. How did I guess that cognition could in turn affect reality and achieve a feat similar to 'resurrection'? Now I understand.

"The time given by APTX and the new life brought by cognitive learning, Tangze, this is their purpose, 'Reverse the flow of time and bring the dead back to life!'"

At the moment when the traffic light changed, the display screen at the intersection finished playing the last advertisement and the screen suddenly lit up.

The brilliant white light shone through the car window onto Haiyuan Ai's face, illuminating her lovely and delicate face clearly.

With a high smile on her lips.

Tangze was stunned for a few seconds, then at the urging of the vehicle behind him, he released the brakes and started forward.

He always regarded her as a little sister who still needed to be cared for by him, and he almost forgot——

Although Miyano Shiho is a girl with a gentle personality and weak hands, she is also a general who scolds Fang Qiu in the laboratory.

But now, she seemed to have finally grabbed her own weapon and found the killer move that could deliver a winning blow.

"They have lost their aunt and uncle and have nothing else to rely on. Wearing delicate skins cannot change their nature. Give me some time and I will catch them, Karasawa!"

Looking back at the girl from the corner of his eye, Tang Ze stepped on the accelerator, quickly changed lanes, and also raised the corners of his mouth.

So beautiful, she looks like this.

----

"Go and get some rest early." Seeing Haihara Ai, who was excited and still had a smile on her face, jumping out of the car like a real little girl, Tang Ze said, "Don't work too late, Sister Mingmei. I’ll be worried.”

"...They say I just look like a kid." Haiyuan Ai, who was about to run towards the house, paused and muttered in a low voice, "I used to work like this, my sister loves to worry too much."

Even though she and Haibara Ai knew each other's existence and could chat with her sister every day, Miyano Akemi had no intention of removing the high-power telescope upstairs.

As long as there is no real day and night contact, my sister should still be worried.

This should be called, elder sister is like mother? In other words, Miyano Akemi was suffocated by her past life of less gathering and more separation?

In short, using high-powered telescopes to determine her sister's daily routine is something Miyano Akemi likes to do these days. Unless Karasawa really has an urgent need to work overtime, she basically won't allow Haibara Ai to stay up late.
