Conan: The Mechanic

An hour later, in a perfectly safe hotel in the center of Yokosuka.

"Dong Dong——" Conan knocked on the door lightly, waiting for the occupants inside to open the door.

After about 20 seconds, the door was gently opened, and a sad-faced Chiba came out—this was really beyond Conan's expectations, because even after going through something like that, he hadn't gotten any rest. Qianyu's face was only physically exhausted, and his spirit was still extremely stable.

"What happened?" Conan looked at Qianyu suspiciously.

"What else could it be," Qianyu sighed. "I don't know what happened. She was fine, but she suddenly started crying after returning to the room."

"It may be that he was holding on until he settled down, and then he began to vent his unease." Conan showed an understanding expression and handed a bag of food to Qianyu, exhorting him like this. "Just stay with her more."

"Is Miss Xiaolan okay?" Qianyu asked back after taking the food.

"No, she is much stronger than you think. In fact, it may be that people like Haiyuan who seem to be much more mature are more likely to collapse, because they do not have the time to talk about buffering pressure." Saying this, Conan finished The handover of the food signaled to Qianyu that his purpose had been completed.

"..." Qian Yu glanced at the food bag in her hand, then looked at Conan, finally nodded and closed the door.

"Is it Edogawa?" When Qianyu turned around, there was a gnat's inquiring voice in the room.

"Yes, he bought the food, including your favorite blueberry jam sandwich," Chiba walked back to Haibara Ai's bed with a plastic bag and sat by her hand, like before Conan knocked on the door That way, he stretched out his hand to Haibara Ai's. "Am I feeding you?"

"I'll eat it myself," Haibara Ai was still so weak, but lightly grabbed Chiyu's hand. "But... uh, forget it."

"What's the matter?" Chi Yu asked, realizing that the other party seemed to be hesitating whether to make any request.

"You..." Haibara Ai tried to make her grip stronger, but found that her hands just slipped across Chiba's skin. "I want a little hug... just one."

"Of course, this kind of thing can be said directly," Chiba put the plastic bag on the head of the bed, leaned down and hugged Haibara Ai gently. "Don't worry, baby, I'm here."

Reaching out her hand from the gap in Chiba's arms, Haibara Ai grabbed a sandwich, brought it to her mouth but didn't eat it. After hesitating for a moment, she suddenly cried out from Chiba's arm, who was gently stroking her to ease her emotions.

Chiyu rolled around, making him and Haibara Ai hug each other in the same bed, just watching her tears flow on her clothes tenderly. "Don't worry, it's over, I'm here."

"When I was down there just now, I... I was really scared!" Haibara Ai choked on and off. "At that time, I really thought that I was going to die, and I was so unwilling at that time!

"It's just one step away, I can change back into an adult's body right away, and then marry you, how can I die in such a place at such a time!

"Really, I'm so scared. The closer we get to the day when we can get our bodies free, the more scared I get. I don't want to fall on the last step before the finish line!"

"..." Not knowing how to comfort her, Qianyu could only continue to gently stroke Haibara Ai's back and kiss her on the forehead.

However, in terms of emotional involvement, Chiba's thoughts were not really on the crying lover in her arms. , but is communicating remotely with Conan.

"They have found the connection between the inner and outer layers of the [Egg of Memories], and have cracked the fancy mechanism." Conan described to Chiba over the phone. "That thing... as long as you use the spring to store energy in the inner layer, and then use a point light source to illuminate a lens at the bottom of the inner egg through the bottom filter of the outer egg, you can drive the photosensitive mechanism and use the accumulated energy to provide [Egg of Memories] transforms."

"What is the content of the transformation?" Chiba continued to ask after responding to Haibara Ai with a love sentence again.

"The inside of the inner egg has a statue of Nicholas II reading a book with a child, and then the book has 17 pages, all of which are made of copper engravings, and the surface of the engravings is uneven, so when the light shines from the lower side After entering the statue and being refracted layer by layer, the content on it can be projected onto the nearby wall-although it is completely impossible to see these pictures clearly in the sunlight environment, but if the upper half of the egg of memory is If part of it is placed in a camera obscura, and the external light source is blocked, then the contents of the engraving can be clearly seen-those are the group photos of Nicholas II with a pair of mother and child and the child himself. We infer that the person on it should be An illegitimate child and a mistress."

"The child's face was also photographed? Is it clear?"

"Clearly, we have even made a comparison, and the characteristics of the grandfather photo provided by Miss Kasaka Natsumi are very similar, but further confirmation still needs to find specialized forensics personnel. According to their speculation, this egg may be After Kasaka Kiichi fled to Japan with Nicholas II's illegitimate son~www.readwn.com~ Easter eggs composed of leftover scraps and plain general materials. Therefore, although the material is even better than those during the previous wars The simple version of the easter egg is even more shabby, but it is more attentive in the fineness of the mechanism - this is a delicate craftsmanship that is specialized in details and polished over a long period of time."

"Have you told that Miss Pu Siqinglan about this matter? In fact, she is not about the queen's generation."

"As I said, her emotions are a little out of control now, but after all, she has been controlled by coercive measures, so it's not something we need to worry about."

"So, what will the Suzuki consortium plan to do with the outer layer of the egg in the end? Are you going to buy Miss Kasaka's inner egg and make it into a set of combined fists?"

"The current result should be that Russia has completed the acquisition of the outer layer of the Suzuki consortium and the lease of the inner layer held by Miss Kasaka Natsumi, and it will be exhibited in Moscow in the future. By the way, is Haibara-san in better condition?"

"In general, it can only be said that there is no sign of further deterioration for the time being. I hope that my physical strength can last until I fall asleep with her—seriously, I am also very tired now... Oh, it doesn't matter, she seems to be asleep, then I also rest first."

"Go to sleep, I will summarize the situation of the case with my uncle and the others. In this incident, Pu Siqinglan really killed a lot of people, and the Yokosuka Police Station suffered heavy losses."

After cutting off the communication of the auxiliary unit, Chiyu found that her shoulder was pinned by Haibara Ai and could not escape.

If that's the case, let's sleep here, anyway... Sleeping with your lover in your arms will probably make you feel more at ease?

Thinking like this, Qianyu gently leaned her head forward and pressed against Haibara Ai.

Good night, my baby.
