Conan's other me

Chapter 60 When Thunder Cracks the Sky ([-])
The tea-haired girl on the opposite side didn't seem to have figured out how to speak, and so did Fengyuan.

The anomaly that Miyano Shiho is showing now is just walking in the rain wearing adult clothes. Although it is doubtful, it is not appropriate to directly use this to identify his identity.

Feng Yuan decided to wait for her to speak first.

then…

"Shall I eat something first?"

Kaedehara pushed the bag on the table towards the opposite side.

The bag contained bread and milk, which was what he and Dr. A Li ate last night.

He bought it from a nearby convenience store in the rain.

Miyano Shiho hesitated for a moment and picked up a piece of bread.

She is really hungry now.

Thanking her very softly, she tore open the package and ate it in small bites. At the same time, she couldn't help but look at the Kudo Shinichi she thought.

Kudo Shinichi closed his eyes again at this moment, hugged the blanket beside him in his arms, leaned on the sofa, and looked like he was about to fall asleep again.

This made her feel a little more relaxed while she was eating, and it also allowed her to look at each other more carefully.

She was also more convinced of his identity.

When she was slightly full, Miyano Shiho spoke softly.

"APTX4869."

"Do you know what this is?" Miyano Shiho paused, saw Kudo Shinzhang open his eyes and looked at her before continuing, "This is the name of the drug you were given."

She spoke according to the dialogue plan she had just thought of, but Kudo Shinichi's reaction was somewhat beyond her expectations.

He was just listening to her carefully, seemed interested in what she had to say.

He didn't have the shocked expression that his identity seemed to be exposed, nor the confused expression that he didn't know what she was talking about, nor did he pretend to be stupid and pretend to be confused.

But it also means that the other party is not an ordinary child.

So Miyano Shiho continued: "The organization ordered me to make this medicine."

"Because of the sudden onset of the cellular self-destructive program, all cells of bone, muscle, viscera, body hair, etc., except neural tissue, degenerate into childhood."

"It's a mysterious poison." Miyano Shiho said, "Why, why don't you respond? Kudo Shinichi?"

"...How did you find out?" Fengyuan gave a compliment very obediently.

"The organization has sent people to your home twice to investigate. Because among the people who took that medicine, only you were not confirmed dead."

"As the inventor of the drug, of course I also went there. But the house was full of dust and there was no sign of anyone living there, so the first investigation came to an end."

"The second investigation was a month later, and the room was still dusty and unchanged. Just when I, too, began to think that you were dead... just noticed something strange in the closet."

"...the clothes you had when you were a child, which were still there a month ago... are all gone."

This guy Conan did it secretly, Feng Yuan complained silently in his heart.

That Conan guy seems to have a soft spot for those clothes when he was a child, and he wears those elementary school uniforms all day long.

On the day when she became smaller, Fengyuan only took two sets of clothes.Considering that others don't know how many pieces there are, they will not be noticed in theory.

But... that's fine too.

"When doing animal experiments," Miyano Shiho didn't know what the person opposite was thinking, but continued, "There was once a mouse that survived and degenerated into a young mouse, so this hypothesis is easy to establish." She paused, "After Kudo Shinichi took APTX4869, he may have degenerated into a child."

"However... since you are a subject of great interest to me, I want you to live. If you report to the organization, you may be killed before being sent to me."

"So...thank me, Kudo Shinichi," Miyano Shiho said, "I filled in your profile with confirmed death. The organization doesn't know about your shrinkage."

"Thank you." Feng Yuan was kind, and then asked, "What about you?"

Miyano Shiho was a little caught off guard by the sudden thank you, even though she had mentioned it herself.

But she quickly pretended not to hear the first half of the sentence, and only answered the second half of the question: "My name is Shirley, and this is my code name in the organization."

"I betrayed the organization." Miyano Shiho said, "Arbitrarily using medicine on humans during the experimental stage is one of the reasons why I am dissatisfied with the organization...but the biggest reason is my sister."

"My sister was...killed by people from the organization. I went to question the organization, but got no reply. So I stopped the drug research, but they didn't have any patience at all, so they locked me up..."

"I thought to myself, since it's a dead end, I swallowed the APTX4869 I carried with me..."

"Fortunately, I thought I was going to die, but I turned into a child. I broke free from the handcuffs and escaped from the garbage chute smoothly..."

"With nowhere to go, I can only rely on Kudo Shinichi...you are alone."

"We are in the same boat, you must understand me... right?"

After finishing a long passage, Miyano Shiho's mouth felt a little dry.

There was milk in the bag, but she didn't want to move, she just wanted to wait quietly for Kudo Shinichi to respond.

She had anticipated what the response would be.

She guessed that he would accuse her of developing the drug that was used by the organization to kill people, and he would accuse her of having blood on her hands because of it...

Her last words might still make him angry.

But she really had no other choice.

Miyano Shiho thought to himself, hanging his head.

"So you want to live here?"

Miyano Shiho raised his head: "Are you willing to take me in?"

"Of course I'm fine." Fengyuan said, "But I'm just staying here... This is Dr. Ali's home, and it's up to him to decide whether to take you in or not."

"But don't worry," Fengyuan continued, "The doctor is very nice and likes children very much. He will be very happy."

Miyano Shiho stared blankly at Fengyuan.

Fengbara noticed that she clenched her fist resting on her knee tightly until her knuckles turned white.

"Haven't you figured out the situation... Kudo Shinichi..."

Miyano Shiho's voice trembled slightly.

"The medicine I made killed a lot of people... Even you were killed by my medicine..."

She obviously just said it, and she feels that Kudo Shinichi can understand herself...

Now it looks like this again...

"Even without your medicine, those who attacked me would kill me in another way. Then I would not have a chance to survive." Fengyuan said, "So... In a sense, I really have to thank you."

He himself was not attacked, at least there was no such part in his original memory.

So this sentence is more out of comforting the other party's emotions.

And he also knew very well that for someone like Miyano Shiho, such words would not have much effect.

Then he added:
"Thank you, Miss Shiho."

Miyano Shiho did not mention her name.
