I'm in Mihua, and all the ladies like me.

Akai Marie didn't expect him to provide any valuable advice, so she simply turned her inquiry to her daughter.

But the strange thing is that Huya girl, who was always full of energy and enthusiastic at all times, rarely responded for a while. She just sat on the passenger seat with her chin in one hand and stared blankly. He was fascinated by the rearview mirror outside the window.

"Innocent?"

Akai Marie thought she was too tired after traveling, so she raised her voice slightly.

This time the Huya girl finally came to her senses. She came to her senses for a moment, then turned her head in confusion.

"What's wrong mom?"

"I just asked you what you wanted for dinner."

"Dinner, I can do that..."

The brother and sister's similar answers made Akai Marie hold her forehead in her heart for a second.

"How about the beef brisket pot? I bought some enoki mushrooms and baby cabbage. I haven't eaten them for a long time, but it might take a little longer."

"Well, that's okay. It's not too early to have lunch anyway." Sera Masumi nodded.

"It just so happens that I'm going to Dr. Ali's house later."

Serabel, who was driving in the driver's seat, suddenly said.

He and Yukiko haven't seen each other for almost more than a week, which means it's been basically two weeks since he met with Akemi. After all, he entrusted people to Dr. Agasa in the first place, so it's not good to be a hands-off shopkeeper all the time. Sora must go over and take a look.

There is a saying that Serabel, the conscience of the day, really only has this purpose. However, after hearing this, the British girl in the back seat seemed to realize something. She raised her head from the attraction of the mobile phone screen and added lightly.

"Come back before dinner."

"Uh, got it."

Listening to the conversation between the two, Sera Masumi in the passenger seat was stunned for a short while, and then continued to turn his head and stare at the scenery outside the car window in a daze.

……

The scene changes to No. 22, Yoneka Town [-]-chome, Agasa House.

Since it was a last-minute idea, Serabel didn't say anything in advance before going.

When he rang the doorbell and entered the living room through the front door, he saw various elementary school textbooks, stationery for elementary school students, etc. piled on the dining table in the living room. There was also a newly bought dog on the sofa without the label being cut off. student bag.

Mingmei is sorting various books, exercise books, etc. into categories, and sharpening pencils with an automatic pencil sharpener.

Dr. Ali, who was preparing dinner, came out of the kitchen and was stunned when he saw Serabel.

"Oh, Sera-kun, why are you here?"

"Uh... I just came here to take a look and brought a few things with me."

Serabel said, raising the plastic bag in her hand.

It was the fried chicken he bought in the center of Tokyo when he came over. It was the same type of fried chicken that Dr. Agasa bought himself before. It is said to be the best-selling fried chicken labara in Tokyo.

"Oh!"

You don’t even have to smell it, just seeing the logo on the plastic bag makes the white-haired old man’s eyes light up.

But he did not cheer. Instead, he immediately turned around and looked cautiously in the direction of the kitchen, and then tiptoed towards the young man to pick him up.

?

Seeing Dr. A Li's appearance, an icon "indicating that the enemy is gone" slowly appeared on Serabel's head.

Just eat fried chicken, why does it look like stealing?

Serabel looked at Mingmei again, Mingmei just smiled helplessly.

???

There are more question marks.

But he soon understood the former's intention.

Just when Dr. A Li's fingertips were about to touch the plastic bag, a girl's cold and unmistakable voice came from the direction of the kitchen.

"No."

"..."

Dr. A Li's hand suddenly froze in mid-air.

After a while, he reluctantly took back his hand and uttered a sentence in a tone similar to "What kind of holiday? Only those who are useless to society can take a holiday."

"Actually, I've been losing weight recently."

Doctor, if you are kidnapped, just blink...

As soon as this idea flashed through Serabel's mind, a girl with brown hair dressed in a young cook's attire came out of the kitchen door and said calmly.

"Not just recently, but also in the future. Once your body's various indicators return to normal health, you can eat these things occasionally."

"...That's it in a nutshell."

Dr. A Li hummed twice quickly, and when he turned around, the expression on his face had turned into TwT.

It's too awful.

Serabel raised the plastic bag in her hand again: "But I bought everything..."

"Bring back."

It was still the girl's cold and unmistakable voice.

"All right……"

Following the Agasa, the Sera Bell was also sunk.

At this time, Mingmei, who had been packing her schoolbag at the dining table since Serabel entered, waved.

"Okay, sister, I've packed it up. Aijiang comes here and tries to see if the shoulder straps should be tightened a little more."

"coming."

The brown-haired girl responded, took off her kitchen apron, put it on the back of the dining chair next to her, and walked over with her slippers on.

Wait, Ai-chan?

Serabel looked at the Miyano sisters who were in a warm state, and then turned her gaze to the white-haired old man with a sad face.

"So this is..."

Dr. Agasa took off his glasses and wiped his face: "This was Mingmei's idea. I helped Shiho apply for a new identity. Now his name is Haibara Ai. Starting next week, he will go to Tedan Elementary School."

Serabel: "..."

A doctor with double degrees in pharmacy and biochemistry went to elementary school?

Are you serious? ?

Chapter 125 My mother is very satisfied with you

I quickly tried on Miyano Shiho's children's schoolbag. It should be said that it was carefully selected by my sister. The size is just right, and even the adjustment of the shoulder strap is moderately tight... Ah no, it should be called Haibara Ai or Ai now. Sauce is right.

After finishing her sister's preparations for school tomorrow, Miyano Akemi turned to Sera Bell, scratched her cheek and smiled.

"Well~ How should I put it? The main reason is that I don't want to be ambitious... Ai Jiang can only sit at home and be bored every day. After all, with her current appearance, even if she appears in front of the members of the black organization, they may not be able to recognize her. To a certain extent It’s relatively safe up there.”

This is true.

Serabel agreed in her heart.

At least according to the information given by Haiyuan, at least most of the people in the winery do not know the function of APTX4869. They only think that it is a method that can make people die quietly. Even autopsy The perfect poison for which no cause can be found.

If it is based on this premise, then it is indeed like Mingmei said, even if it appears openly in front of the winery staff, they may not be able to recognize it.

Even Serabel was almost stunned when she saw the shrunken Akai Marie for the first time.

After all, it’s so counter-intuitive.

Not to mention how many people have seen another person as a child, even if they have, they will most likely think that they are the other person's child or the child of the other person's relatives.

In the current era, the concept of rejuvenation only exists in fantasy stories among the general public.

The second point is that a large part of a person's social circle is linked to the industry he is engaged in at the time.

For example, the social circle of office workers is basically people who work at the same company, and for students, it is classmates in the same class.

And based on Haiyuan's current apparent age, or biological age, if she wants to make friends, she really can only go to elementary school.

How did you say that?

Re-reading elementary school may be a little childish for a junior high school student, but for a girl who has already completed two PhDs... well, it's just right.

"Okay, actually I'm just coming over today to take a look. If that's the case, it's almost time for me to leave."

Saying goodbye simply and rudely in the most understated tone, Serabel turned around and prepared to walk towards the door.

But the next second, he was stopped by Miyano Akemi behind him.

"Uh, are you in such a hurry to go back? Why don't you stay for dinner before leaving?"

She actually said this for two reasons. On the one hand, she really hoped that Serabel could stay for dinner. After all, it would be good to sit down and chat for an hour after not seeing each other for a long time.

On the other hand, maybe out of sympathy for Dr. Ali's light diet during the recent period, Serabel bought fried chicken. If he stayed for dinner, the fried chicken could also be served. Dr. A Li should be able to fish in troubled waters to some extent and satisfy his craving for just one or two pieces...well, this is probably unlikely.

"Dah, I agreed with my family that I would go back for dinner." Serabel shrugged innocently.

"That's it, okay then..."

Once she heard that she had agreed with her family in advance, Mingmei had no choice but to give up, but it was obvious from her expression that she was still a little reluctant.

Dr. A Li is also very reluctant to let go, but the object of his reluctance seems to be slightly different.

"See you later..."

Serabel wanted to say this, but just when he was about to blurt out the words, the phone in his pocket suddenly vibrated.

Realizing that someone was calling, Serabel took out her phone and glanced at it, then raised her eyebrows subtly.

It’s been a long time, but it was Suzuki Sonoko who called me.

Click to connect and put it to your ear.

"Hey?"

"Hello, hello~ Long time no see. Where are you now, Sera-kun? Is it convenient to meet you?"

From the other end of the phone came the voice of a certain garden lady who was as energetic as ever.

"I now……"

Serabel hesitated for a moment and looked back at Dr. Ali and others behind her.

"To be honest, I'm with Dr. Ali now and I'm getting ready to go home."

"Oh, you're with the doctor. Can you wait for a while before leaving? I just came out of Uncle Kogoro's place and I will be at your place in 5 minutes."

After saying this, the girl hung up the phone directly without giving the other end of the phone time to agree or refuse.

It looks like it's quite urgent...

If you say 5 minutes, it means 5 minutes.

Five minutes later, as the bell rang at the entrance door of Agasa house, the door opened, and a chestnut-haired girl wearing a headband ran in. The first thing she did after entering was to slap two pieces of paper into Serabel's hands.

An invitation letter for the Suzuki Foundation's art exhibition, and a notice letter with Kidd's classic simple-drawing evil smile expression drawn in the lower right corner.

……

At the same time, in the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department.

In the conference room of the Intelligent Criminal Investigation Department of the Second Investigation Section, the atmosphere was extremely serious.

Hundreds of Section [-] detectives filled the originally spacious staircase-shaped conference room. Everyone had their heads slightly lowered, but the eyes that occasionally appeared under the hair falling from their foreheads were as fierce as hungry wolves, intertwined and gathered together. Together, a dragon-like aura surged between them.

Sitting on the lectern at the end of the conference room directly in front were the Second Section Police Officer Ochagi Jintaro, and Nakamori Ginzo, who was also from the Second Section Police Department.

On the projection screen next to the two people, a notice letter that was exactly the same as the one in Serabel's hand appeared on it.

[From the lion at dusk to the maiden at dawn]
