Conan's organization will end sooner or later without me

Chapter 174 Yin Jiu: Chris is a big sister who lacks love

Half a week after seeing off Toru Amuro, Yin Jiu adapted to his new life again.

Gin hasn't come since the last time he visited him, and the research team is busy launching new drugs.

Everyone was busy, but Yin Jiu was doing nothing.

"Got it, come and have a look! This is our goal today." Dr. Agasa placed a freshly picked matsutake mushroom in front of the children. "Look carefully, its cap is brown with tiny scales, its stem is thick, and there are white mycelium at the base."

"Matsutake usually grows near the roots of pine and oak trees. Be careful when you pick them and don't damage the surrounding mycelium, so as to ensure the continued growth of the matsutake."

"Okay, got it!" Several children passed it to each other, identifying the appearance of Matsutake, and then confidently lowered their heads and began to look for it.

"They are really motivated." Yin Jiu was sitting in a wheelchair holding an umbrella. Looking at Yuan Tai squatting under the tree roots with his butt sticking out and digging the soil, he felt his toes a little itchy.

I really want to kick it.

Yuan Tai, who was picking up leaves, suddenly felt a chill on his back and looked back suspiciously.

"..."

Yin Jiu shifted his gaze away without leaving a trace and turned to Huibara Ai and Ayumi beside him.

The girls' movements were obviously much more graceful. They held branches, half bent over, and swept away the fallen leaves at the roots of the tree bit by bit.

"Xiaojiu, don't you want to come with us?" Seeing that the young man in the wheelchair didn't move, Dr. Agasa pushed his glasses on the bridge of his nose, looking a little distressed.

This child obviously has a good personality, but every time he seems to be able to exclude himself from the crowd.

"Brother, don't you want to come and look for mushrooms with me?" Huiyuan Ai kept an eye on Dr. Agasa and Yin Jiu. Feeling that Dr. Agasa was a little depressed, she turned around and deliberately said in a childish and innocent tone, "Brother, do you want to come with me?"

"No problem at all."

Since Shirley personally invited me, why wouldn't I go?

Yin Jiu naturally picked up a branch from the ground and started to dig in the bushes little by little, imitating the two girls.

"Ah! I found mushrooms!" Yuantai suddenly shouted.

"Mushroom?" Mitsuhiko was closest to Yuanta, and his eyes were attracted by the first one.

I saw a few mushrooms timidly emerging from the messy pile of dead leaves that Yuantai had dug up at the root of the tree. They were not matsutake mushrooms, but were grayish and looked ugly.

"It is said that the brighter the color of a mushroom, the more poisonous it is. This ugly mushroom should not be poisonous, right?" Yuan Tai poked the mushroom curiously.

"No, on the contrary." Yin Jiu also stretched out his hand and poked it, and the golden finger on his hand immediately made a "poisonous" explosion.

"In nature, there are beautiful non-toxic fungi, and there are also ugly fungi that are actually very toxic and are specifically designed to assassinate fools like Yuantai who have no common sense."

"What do you mean by little fool?" Yuan Tai objected immediately, but after looking at the basket that was still empty after searching for a long time, he sat on the ground dejectedly, "Hey, Matsutake is so hard to find, there is nothing here at all."

"But it was you who insisted on picking matsutake mushrooms." Ayumi didn't get anything either. After hearing Yuantai's complaints, she straightened up tiredly, "I originally wanted to pick apples."

"Matsutake is the king of autumn food." Yuan Tai patted the dirt on his knees, "It's much more expensive than apples."

"But the apple is a forbidden fruit. Adam and Eve were expelled from the Garden of Eden after eating it, so it is also called the fruit of knowledge that can distinguish right from wrong." Huiyuan Ai also straightened up, "I think it is much more mysterious than Matsutake."

"Indeed." Yin Jiu looked at Huiyuan lovingly, "People generally believe that the fruit of knowledge is an apple, but the Bible does not clearly record which fruit it is."

"Speaking of apples, I prefer the story of the golden apple in Greek mythology." Yin Jiu glanced at the two girls present. "In the story, Eris, who was not invited to the wedding, left a golden apple with the word 'kallisti' engraved on it as revenge, which meant to be given to the most beautiful goddess."

"Wow! Is it the story that the goddess who gets the apple first is the most beautiful goddess?" Ayumi also remembered this story. She covered her face with her hands and imagined picking apples with her friends and herself being the first one to pick one.

"Yes, but later this apple was also called the 'Apple that caused disputes'." Yin Jiu interrupted Ayumi's fantasy and brought up another matter. "Speaking of which, my mother had a friend who was once called the 'Golden Apple' in Hollywood. She took good care of me in the years after my mother disappeared."

"Could it be..." Conan suddenly remembered this person when he heard Yin Jiu's words, the deceased friend mentioned by his mother - Sharon.

"She is the famous star Sharon Wynyard. Grace, you should have seen her." Yin Jiu tapped the armrest of the wheelchair. "It was only today that I suddenly remembered this. She has a daughter named Chris, which should be exactly the same as the Greek golden apple kallisti (Christine) if read together."

"Exactly the same?" Yuan Tai didn't understand the naming habits of foreigners, and tilted his head in confusion, "Naming your children with your own nickname, how weird."

"It's not a big deal, actually. Europeans like to name their children after their parents, hoping that their children will inherit their ancestors' will. Just like Queen Elizabeth II." Yin Jiu held his hand under his chin. "I think Sharon named Chris like this because he hopes his children can be as dazzling as her."

"Oh, is it the famous star Chrissie Wynyard? She's really famous now." Guangyan usually reads some celebrity magazines. When he heard this familiar name, he immediately took up the topic of Yin Jiu. "But I didn't expect that Brother Yin Jiu's mother's generation knew her family. She must be a quiet and gentle beauty, right?"

Quiet?

Gentle personality?

Yin Jiu was strangely silent for a moment, feeling that none of them matched Vermouth, "She... is a big sister with a twisted personality and a bit lacking in love."

"My personality has changed..."

"Still lacking some love?"

Several children looked confused.

Conan thought more about it. If Yin Shuli was the white glove kept by the organization, then what role did Sharon, who had always followed Yin Shuli, play in it?

Is he a surveillance person like Toru Amuro?

Conan recalled what his mother had told him about the deep friendship between Yin Shuli and Sharon.

If there is any connection between Yin Shuli's disappearance and Sharon's death, could it be that Sharon betrayed the organization for Yin Shuli?

Perhaps both of them are making efforts for their own children?
