Conan, My Neighbor Kurosawa Jin

Yoneka Town 2-chome

After dinner, Imaguchi leaned back on the sofa, holding a laptop in his hand and tapping away. The weird smile hanging on the corner of his mouth, and the expression on his face changed moment by moment as his hands tapped, looking a little scary. .

I went out to play a few days ago, and Imaguchi and Gin had so much fun, and a lot of things happened, so he didn't touch the computer for a long time, so that he now owes a lot of manuscripts.

Facing the editor's urging, Imaguchi looked at this month's deadline and his own manuscripts. He had no choice but to write desperately. He didn't want to be chased by the editor. After all, the editor knew his address, and he was considered a friend. If he was really chased to his home, Iko would lose his freedom in a miserable way.

Thinking of the scene where he was locked in a small dark room and the editor stood behind him with a stick and whipped him, Imaguchi shuddered in his heart and immediately started typing on the computer with all his energy.

After several hours of typing, Imaguchi finally completed 1/5 of the manuscript I owed during this period.

I checked the time on my phone and saw that there were still a few days until the end of the month. After saving what I just wrote, Imaguchi put the computer aside, stood up and stretched. Anyway, I still have time, so tomorrow Write again!

Walking into the kitchen, Imaguchi felt the temperature of the kettle. Seeing that the tea he had just brewed was no longer hot, he poured a cup and sat on a chair by the balcony to drink it slowly.

Looking at the dark sky outside and the twinkling stars, I couldn't help but recall the past.

He has liked to look at the stars in the sky since he was a child, because the stars are very bright. Although they are not as bright as the moon, they still have their own light.

The most important thing is that the moon does not appear every day and is often incomplete, but the stars always twinkle and exist in the sky.

Every night when he was sick and taking medicine and hospitalized, Imakou Xin would lie on the balcony and look up at the stars in the sky, humming songs, hoping that he would be discharged from the hospital and be able to run and play with the children on the grass.

It's a pity that he didn't wait until that day when he was taken out of the hospital by his parents. His body became weaker and weaker day by day, and the position of his chest sometimes felt uncomfortable. Even if he took a big breath, he felt like there was not enough air.

He wanted to get out of bed and take a few steps, but he felt waves of dizziness and constant pain in his body, so that he could only lie in bed for more than ten or twenty hours a day, even walking to the window to look at the stars. It has become a luxury.

Later, he was finally taken out of the hospital by his parents, but the place he went to was not home, but a big house with a closed iron door.

Mom and dad put him at the door and gave him a big bag of beautiful candies and a pink bunny doll. And told him to wait here obediently, and if anyone in the house asked, tell them that he had no parents.

He didn't understand what his parents meant, but looking at their eyes, he didn't refuse. Instead, he sat obediently by the flower bed, holding the doll in his hands, opened the candy, and ate it.

Just like that, he watched his parents leave. He waited there for a long, long time, but his parents didn't come back, and the iron door didn't open. White snowflakes gradually began to float in the sky. He curled up in a corner outside the big house and slowly fell asleep, holding the rabbit doll in his hands and the bag of candy with only one opened.

Later, when he woke up and saw that the big iron door was still not open, he left the house with the dolls and candies. As he walked on the street, he walked into a park full of golden leaves, and met his brother there...

"Axin, why don't you turn on the light?" Gin opened the door and walked in. Seeing that there was only one light left on the balcony in the dark room, he asked while taking off his coat and hanging it on the hanger.

Turning on the light switch, the whole room lit up for a moment. Gin walked towards Imaguchi, sat on the chair next to him, and poured himself a glass of water.

"I was looking at the computer just now. I thought there was enough light so I didn't turn on the light. Ah Zhen, have you had dinner?" Imaguchi blinked inwardly, lowered his head and took a sip of the cold water, and then looked at Gin.

"No." Gin said after drinking the water.

Today is indeed busier than usual. I had gin and vodka for lunch in the afternoon, and I have been busy ever since. No one said it before, and I didn’t feel anything big. Now that I heard this question from my heart, I really feel a little hungry.

Gin touched his dry belly and looked at the time. It was already late.

"There are noodles in the refrigerator, I'll get them for you." Imaguchi stood up and walked to the kitchen, taking out a small handful of noodles from the refrigerator, as well as some vegetables, meatballs and the like. Then he walked into the kitchen, put the noodles and various foods into the pot, added some water and seasonings and started cooking.

"We just came back yesterday. I thought you would be very busy these two days and wouldn't come back today. But it seems that you are not that busy. Is there anyone who can help?" Imaguchi was cooking noodles while talking to Qin Chatting over wine.

Usually when they come back from a trip to play, Ginjiu will be held back by various tasks. He either doesn't come back for several days or comes back very late, but today he came back on time.

Although it's a little late, it's not too late. People who usually work late at this time have almost just finished get off work.

"I have assigned the mission to Amuro Tohru and the others before. Uotsuka is watching, and it's not a big deal. I just want to check the completion progress." Gin said with a bit of relief in his voice.

After sending out the mission, Gin can be said to have been very relaxed these days. Not only did he go out for a trip, but he was not bogged down by various missions after he came back. He just wanted to check the completion status of Bourbon and the others' missions. No more questions.

Compared with the previous workload, it can be said that it has been greatly reduced, making Gin even feel a little slack.

Although Gin doesn't particularly trust Bourbon and the others, their abilities are indeed very good, especially Bourbon. The speed of executing tasks is almost comparable to Gin, and the tasks are completed very well.

Although there were some mistakes in some of Kil's missions, it was just a minor problem and nothing serious. Although she knew that she must have leaked something during the mission, it was within the range that Gin could tolerate.

Gin felt that this kind of thing could happen more often in the future. After all, they couldn't let them eat for nothing in the organization, especially those suspected rats.

"That will indeed be a lot easier. If they can complete it, Ah Zhen, you can assign more work to them in the future. In this way, Ah Zhen, you will be less busy in the future." The more I spoke, the more excited Imaguchi became. If Gin is really not so busy in the future, then the time they spend together will be much longer, and there will be no need to fall in love or have an affair now.

Those who knew that the two of them were in love, those who didn't knew thought that Imaguchi was Gin's mistress.

"I'm thinking about this too." Gin nodded, picked up the oranges on the table and started eating them. While eating, he and Imaguchi were chatting, and suddenly he remembered the text message Imaguchi sent him during the day.

"Axin, you sent me a message during the day and asked me about the APTX4869 antidote. Is there something wrong?"

"Well, I want to ask you if the antidote to APTX4869 has been developed. Because I heard that Kudo Shinichi became an adult and went abroad to play before, so I wanted to ask you if the antidote has been developed. Or is that Kudo Shinichi someone pretending to be?" Imaguchi nodded inwardly, and was about to say it even if Gin didn't ask.

During the day, Ginjiu only replied that he would talk about it in the evening, but never replied again. Imaguchi had been thinking about this all day long, and wanted to know what was going on.

Did Kudo Shinichi and Shirley really find a temporary antidote, or did someone pretend to be Kudo Shinichi and hide it from Xiaolan.

"The research progress of APTX4869 is not only being studied by Shirley, but also by the organization, but the results are not that ideal.

Although Kudo Shinichi and Shirley both experienced shrinkage after taking drugs, APTX4869 is actually poison in most cases.

Except for the two of them, all other people who took the drug have been confirmed to be dead, and after discovering their situation, the organization has sent people to conduct a review. "

After learning about the situation of the two of them, the gentleman sent someone to review the experimental results of APTX4869 over and over again, especially the death list.

But after searching again, except for those whose whereabouts were unknown due to the way of death, such as being buried in a sea of ​​fire, sinking to the bottom of the water, or falling into a cliff, no one in the remaining ones had any behavior of shrinking.

"So, apart from the two of them, there are no experimental subjects?" Imaguchi asked thoughtfully.

"Yes, the organization also conducted experiments later, but the probability of their situation happening was too small. They used mice to conduct experiments, and only one or two were successful. There was no way to determine the cause of the occurrence, so the organization is still No reason was found for their shrinkage.

As for the research and development of the antidote, it has stalled because the reason for the shrinkage is not known. If you just want to develop an antidote to APTX4869, what you develop will only be an antidote, but it will not have the ability to make them recover.

Those in the laboratory said that the drug reacted in their bodies and mutated, but the probability was very small. Without their experiments, it would have been almost impossible to develop it. "

But considering the identities of Kudo Shinichi and Shirley, it is impossible for the organization to conduct human experiments on them. At most, they can only draw some blood and conduct physical examinations. But if they want to develop a product based on these alone, The antidote is still a little short of the mark.

"Haihara Ai's research progress is probably faster than that of the organization. Is it possible that she has already developed some results?

As a genius scientist, he should be quite capable! "Imaguchi guessed in his heart, and kept stirring the noodles in the pot with his hands. It wasn't until he heard the sound in the pot that he suddenly reacted, quickly turned off the fire, and took out the noodles.

"Although Shirley is very powerful, she is not irreplaceable, otherwise the organization would not have planned to kill her at that time. The reason why she was solely responsible for a project in the organization was because of her own relatively powerful abilities.

But it is also because APTX4869 was the experiment that her parents were responsible for back then. As a second-generation member of the organization, she is more valued by the organization, so this experimental project was handed over to her.

Otherwise, given her age, no matter how powerful she is in the organization, she is either responsible for small experimental projects or as an assistant for large experimental projects. Projects like APTX4869 would not be her turn to take charge of. "Gin said as he glanced at Imaguchi Koshin. As a bystander of the APTX experiment, Imaguchi Koshin should be very aware of the status of the researchers when this experiment was conducted.

If it were back then, a talented scientist like Shirley would have been nothing more than an assistant.

Imaguchi nodded inwardly. What Gin said was not wrong. In his memory, the scientists who studied APTX4869 back then were indeed very powerful. Each one was more capable than the last, and each had more peculiar hobbies than the last.

Although he didn't know what Huihara Ai's specific strength was, he thought it was still inferior compared to her parents. But even her parents were not the most powerful ones in the organization back then.

It's just that because the experimental projects they are responsible for are different, there is no comparison.

Gin continued while blowing noodles, "As for the research progress, the research progress between the organization and Shirley's should not be too different, otherwise the organization would have been raising those experimentalists for free."

Although Gin didn't like the experimenters in the organization, he still had no doubts about their abilities. Otherwise, they wouldn't have been able to stay in the organization for so many years.

Other medicines developed by those experimenters are still very effective, such as those for healing injuries, enhancing physical fitness, and various beauty treatments.

"So the Kudo Shinichi who said he traveled to London, England, is a lie?" Imaguchi hesitated.

If it is other circumstances, it may be fake and forged by someone else. But when Sonoko was talking about the trip to London, England, something must have happened between Xiaolan and Kudo Shinichi there, and their relationship was confirmed.

In this case, it shouldn’t be someone else’s forgery!

Otherwise, who would think of kissing Xiaolan and confessing to being together under the guise of Kudo Shinichi?

Could it be that he is sick?

"Kudo Shinichi is like a child now. How can he go to London? He doesn't even have a formal identity certificate. It is estimated that even the passport for going abroad cannot be genuine." Gin did not believe that Kudo Shinichi could go abroad now. After all, Kudo Shinichi has a passport, but Conan may not have one.

Of course, what he said was obvious, but if Kudo Shinichi wanted to sneak out of the country, there would definitely be a way. However, no matter whether he goes abroad or not, he is still Conan now, and he should never return to his original state. look.

Thoughts flashed through Gin's mind. Could it be that Shirley really had something to hide? Is there any progress on the antidote for APTX4869?

This possibility is not impossible. After all, the APTX4869 antidote is not as attractive to organizations as imagined. Compared with the APTX4869 antidote, the gentleman is more concerned about when APTX4869 can be successfully developed.

After all, the successfully developed APTX4869 does not need an antidote. It is a miracle drug that can reverse time and rejuvenate people.

In addition, Miyano Akemi died at the hands of the organization after all. Shirley was unwilling to cooperate with the organization in drug research before. Although she has returned to the organization now, she has always been unwilling to take the initiative and not cooperate. The gentleman did not force Shirley to return to the organization to continue researching APTX4869, but instead treated her as a free-ranging system.

Therefore, it is really possible that the organization has ignored Shirley's research progress. With Shirley's ability, it is very likely that she has actually discovered something.

"Although there are many people around who disguise themselves, no one would be so bored that they would disguise themselves as Kudo Shinichi and Xiaoran to confess their love, right?

Moreover, even if Xiaolan might usually admit that Kudo Shinichi was wrong when he was disguised by others, but after close contact, traveling to London together, and confessing and kissing, it is impossible to admit it, right? "

Imaguchi believed that if it was for a short time, Xiaolan might not be able to recognize Kudo Shinichi in other people’s disguises, but how could he not be able to recognize him after being in close contact for a long time? After all, they have been childhood sweethearts for more than ten years.

It can even be said that they talk more every day than they talk to their parents. After so many years of getting along, how could they admit their mistakes?

"It makes sense. I'll check it out later." Seeing this, Ginjiu also became a little more concerned about this matter. What he said made sense indeed, not to mention that he was a childhood sweetheart. Even between him and Imaguchi, if one of them is being impersonated, the other should be able to quickly sense that something is wrong.

"By the way, Ah Zhen, you haven't sent me the photos of our trip yet. Those photos are all on your phone." Imaguchi looked at Gin's phone aside and suddenly remembered the photos he took during the trip. They are all in Gin's mobile phone and have not been transferred out yet.

"Well, I'll send it to your computer in a moment." Gin also suddenly remembered this incident. Previously, Imaguchi's cell phone was broken, so Gin gave him his spare cell phone. Later, after buying a new mobile phone, Imaguchi returned Gin's mobile phone with all his heart, but the photos he had taken recently were not transferred, and there were quite a lot of them.

"Okay." Imaguchi nodded heartily.

……

Milk, eggs, sugar, stir, freeze...

Imaguchi looked at the ice cream he had just made, and couldn't help but feel a little greedy. He took a spoonful and stuffed it into his mouth. It was ice cold, with a faint milky aroma, and a hint of sweetness. It was very good. eat.

After labeling the ice cream with vanilla flavor, Imaguchi sat on the sofa with a large box of ice cream in his arms and happily ate it.

Because I don’t like it too sweet, I only added a little sugar. The taste is not too sweet, but it still exudes the unique milky aroma of ice cream. Imaguchi ate seriously while watching the TV series. When he was almost done eating, he realized that only a small corner of the ice cream had been eaten, and most of it was still intact.

Looking at the almost complete ice cream in front of me, Imaguchi felt a little embarrassed for a moment. This box of ice cream seemed to be a bit big. He didn't seem to have estimated his food intake when he first made it. This box of ice cream was enough for him to eat for ten days and a half.

Turning his gaze to the refrigerator, Imaguchi thought about the few extra boxes of ice cream he had frozen just now because he was afraid of not having enough to eat. He scratched his head for a moment, as if he had made too much.

Looking at the two large boxes of ice cream neatly arranged in the refrigerator, Imaguchi felt a little embarrassed. With so much ice cream, it would probably take a long time to eat it together with Azhen.

And he plans to make some other flavors of ice cream after finishing these boxes. The ingredients have already been bought. Looking at the ice cream ingredients placed aside, Imaguchi fell into deep thought...

Carrying the freshly made ice cream, Imaguchi pressed the doorbell of Dr. Agasa's house.

Dr. Agasa opened the door and found that the person who came was actually Imaguchi Kokoro. He was a little surprised for a moment. Why did Imaguchi Kokoro suddenly come to his house?

After all, after knowing each other for such a long time, Imaguchi rarely visits his home. The last time I came here was because we agreed to go out together and met at Dr. A Li's house. In addition, Imaguchi has never been here before, so it is inevitable that Dr. Agasa will be surprised.

"Good morning, Dr. Agasa!" Imaguchi said hello, holding a bag in his hand.

"Imaguchi, morning, come in!" Dr. Agasa opened the door and welcomed Imaguchi in.

"Excuse me, doctor." Imaguchi smiled sheepishly, and then took out the bag in his hand, "I made some ice cream myself, thinking that there are more people here, doctor, so I brought some for you. Come here, how do you guys taste it?"

"How can this be so embarrassing!" Dr. Ali waved his hand quickly. He couldn't finish such a big box of ice cream for them!

"It's okay, doctor, I did this all by myself. I thought you had a lot of children here, so I thought I could share it with you, so I won't go to Conan and the others specifically." I gave this to A from the bottom of my heart. Dr. Li actually wants to save trouble.

After all, he was too lazy to deliver ice cream to the children in the Junior Detective Corps. Although they lived not far away, it would probably take two hours to walk there one by one.

Rather than looking for it one by one, it is better to put the ice cream directly at the doctor's place. After all, they often come to the doctor's place to play, and they will definitely divide it themselves if it is sent here.

"Thank you then. They happened to be clamoring for ice cream!" Dr. Agasa smiled and walked inside with Imaguchi.

"Are Mitsuhiko and the others here too?"

"Yes, they are inside." Dr. A Li nodded. It was a coincidence that Ikaguchi came here today. Mitsuhiko and the others just happened to be playing games here late last night, and they haven't left yet!

As soon as Dr. A Li finished speaking, several children from the Youth Detective Team ran out.
