Conan: Goodbye, Brewery, I'm running away
Chapter 183: Falsehood Disappears with the “True Form” 14
"Gin doesn't know what's being researched in the organization's labs. Mainly because he's not curious about what's in the labs. He's always just a knife in the boss's hand, and that's what he's responsible for."
Akikawa Sarina thought about Gin's background. If she had not entered the laboratory according to the choice given by Vermouth, her fate... most likely she would have died in the training camp long ago, or become like Gin.
"As for Vermouth, she naturally knows what the effects of the A series of drugs are, and also knows what the purpose is."
"Then she..."
As for the matter of Vermouth, Akikawa Sarina finally attributed it to hatred, "She had more hatred for Sherry."
Akikawa Sarina didn't know much about the dispute between Vermouth and the Miyano family at first. It was only when Vermouth hinted that she should choose to stand on the side of Silver Bullet not long ago that Tomoko told her.
She looked at Conan who was listening very attentively in front of her, "You should understand one thing, if you want to completely hide you and Huibara, you must have the help of some people, or to put it more clearly, you need to achieve internal and external cooperation.
Vermouth and I will temporarily keep it a secret for you from the organization, but someone from other forces must also help you hide it."
"Ms. Akikawa means..."
"Conan, few people would refuse immortality..."
Akikawa Sarana's voice was a little light, but the words she said hit Conan's heart like a stone.
"If the organization's research projects are exposed, do you think the organization will still be the criminal organization it is now? Also, where do you think the organization's funds come from?"
Conan thought about the scene when he first saw Gin and Vodka in Dorobiga Paradise, and what Huiyuan had said to him before, "It shouldn't just be a way of threatening the person with some black material to get money, right?"
Hearing him say this, Akikawa Sarana, who was in charge of a small part of the organization's accounts, shook her head. "How is that possible? The money obtained through those means is not enough to cover the cost of a large mission. It doesn't even include the salaries paid to the members of the operation. Those can only be considered personal extra income.
The organization's major funding source, apart from the nominal company income and some income from scientific research results, is the investment of various chaebols, nobles, and some politicians. "
Akikawa Sarana looked at Conan, who was surprised, and said, "Guess, if you exclude the reason that the organization helps them get rid of their enemies, why do these people continue to invest in the organization?"
Conan gave his answer, "Because of the drug research in the laboratory."
Akikawa Sarana nodded, "That's right."
Looking at Conan who was lost in his own world of thought, Akikawa Sarana sipped the drink in her hand.
The fact that Edogawa Conan = Kudo Shinichi is something that cannot be hidden from Zero and Morobushi.
The same is true for the organization. Regardless of the organization's current actions or the inevitability of fate that Tongzi mentioned, Conan as the protagonist will definitely be noticed by the BOSS.
Knowing that certain things are bound to happen, it is better to prepare various response plans in advance than to reconsider things like "identity and drug A" when the time comes and you are faced with a lot of troubles.
"I didn't tell him directly that your identity wasn't asking for your opinion."
Akikawa Sarana put down the can in her hand and said, "It's just to prepare you mentally."
"Ms. Akikawa."
Conan raised his eyes and looked at Akikawa Sarina who was opposite him, "Since even Gin doesn't know the true medicinal effect of APTX-4869, why do you know it?"
It's not that he looked down on Limu's position in the organization, but everyone's intelligence showed two points. First, Limu's position in the organization was far inferior to Gin's, and second, Limu was not a drug researcher.
I'm afraid that even Huiyuan, who specializes in drug research, doesn't know so much relevant information today.
If his reasoning was correct, there was only one possibility for Limu to know so much, that she was also a victim of the A drug series.
This is also the answer he came up with based on Limu's general name for those drugs. APTX-4869 is just one of the research directions of this series of drugs.
"Haven't you figured out the answer yet?"
Meeting Conan's gaze, Akikawa Sarana had no expression on her face, and said calmly: "The drug I took before was also an experimental drug related to this series, but it was a research experiment that had been abandoned for 16 years."
"That......"
Seeing the worry in Conan's eyes, Akikawa Sarana thought he was concerned about whether the data would be discovered by other members of the organization, "Don't worry, I was the only experimental subject who came out of that laboratory alive.
The lab has been destroyed, and the drug I'm taking now was developed by two labs. I've already attributed the data leak patch to the deceased Tomoki Miyagawa, so no one will find out what we did."
"And even if someone finds out, it won't be a problem. Miyagawa Tomoki died in this case, so it's normal for the data in the computer to be discovered by the police. The organization's response will most likely be to have me or Bourbon, who are on the cruise ship right now, clear the data..."
At this point, Akikawa Sarana thought of someone's expression yesterday, "Maybe he has already prepared answers to the organization's questions and has already made a response plan."
"No, that's not my problem!"
Conan stood up from the sofa excitedly, "The effect of APTX-4869 is that it will cause the person who takes it to die or become smaller like me and Haibara;
According to the information that Teacher Judy once told me, the effect of the medicine Vermouth took should be that she won't age;
What about you, Ms. Akikawa? What is the effect of your medicine? ! "
Thinking of the pain he felt every time he grew bigger and smaller, Conan looked at Akikawa Sarina with eyes full of worry.
His voice was heavy, "Although Huiyuan didn't say it, but it can be seen from the fact that she made medicine overnight after receiving your information, Miss Akikawa, your health problem must be very serious!
And according to the doctor, the cells in your body are dying and regenerating at 15 times the rate of a normal person..."
After hearing what he said, she realized that Conan was worried about her health. "Conan, haven't you noticed? I don't look like I'm 28 years old."
She pointed at the side of her face and said, "Well... it's not too obvious. After all, I have a natural baby face."
Akikawa Sarana said as she moved closer to Conan, "Since they are all drugs related to longevity, the one I'm taking is no exception.
The purpose of that study was to slow down growth and eventually keep the age at a certain fixed level.
Unfortunately, they failed.
For some of those people, their growth was not slowed down, but time was accelerated, and their body cells aged faster, leading to death;
Some people died because they could not bear the accelerated regeneration and death of their cells, which was different from that of ordinary people.
I was the only one who withstood the effects of the drug.
But the process of accelerated cell regeneration and death consumes future lifespan, so the end result is that my eternal youth consumes my lifespan.
This experiment was going in the wrong direction from the beginning.”
Hearing this, Conan could no longer conceal the shock on his face, and he cried out, "Ms. Akikawa, you!"
"Don't worry, I'm not finished yet."
Akikawa Sarana raised her hand and touched the top of his head, then continued soothingly, "Although this experiment failed, I am still alive."
Akikawa Sarana sat up straight again, "After the experiment failed, the organization continued to keep me because a madman in the laboratory thought: since I am still alive, there must be some effect of the drug on me, and then he discovered the abnormality of my body cells.
So after the original laboratory was abandoned, the organization moved to another location and set up a small research project team specifically to study my situation.”
Akikawa Sarina never told anyone about this experience, and apart from Vermouth and the crazy people in the laboratory, basically no one in the organization knew the truth.
This is the first time she has spoken about her experience.
In fact, Conan is a very suitable listener to her past. The relationship between her and Conan is neither distant nor close. When she mentions her past experiences to him, Akikawa Sarana has no psychological burden, and Conan will not express emotions that she does not want to see.
So when facing Conan, she couldn't help but tell him about her past.
“In the beginning, there was nothing wrong except that my cells were abnormal.
The new laboratory is just worried that I will die suddenly like the previous test subjects, so the main purpose, in addition to continuing to study me, is to study some drugs that can maintain my vital signs. "
At this point, Akikawa Sarana said something off topic, "Come to think of it, the organization also made some money from this health-enhancing drug."
Conan was originally very anxious, but emotions can affect each other. When he saw Akikawa Sarina's state, he slowly calmed down.
Miss Akikawa is not the kind of person who doesn't take her body seriously at all. She should have a solution to the problem now.
And from his reasoning, Miss Akikawa should have never told anyone about her past. What he needs to do now is to listen and be a cooperative listener.
Conan sat back on the sofa and twitched his lips when he heard Akikawa Sarina say that the organization made money by selling drugs.
"Everything changed when I was 25. The results of a physical examination that year showed that my body had stopped growing."
Akikawa Sarana smiled sarcastically. "This discovery made everyone in the lab excited. They reported the results and the organization once again set up a new research project team to continue studying my body."
"No results, right?" Seeing that she didn't continue, Conan stated his own reasoning.
Akikawa Sarana nodded, "Well, three years is enough time for those lunatics to go from being surprised to being disappointed."
Conan asked softly: "So, Ms. Akikawa, how long do you have left?"
His voice was very soft, and concern was very obvious in it.
"I'm not sure about the past, maybe five years at most? Or maybe two or three years."
Akikawa Sarana nodded her cheek, as if thinking, "As for now...if everything goes well, I might be able to live like a normal person, or maybe I can live another ten to fifteen years?"
Tongzi calculated the effectiveness of the medicine that Haibara Ai gave her. If she took that medicine for a long time, she should be able to extend her life by ten years.
Knowing what Conan wanted to ask, Akikawa Sarana said: "Just like APTX-4869 has an antidote, my drug can also have an antidote, but it needs research."
Conan was a little nervous, "Besides Huibara, did Ms. Akikawa ask for help from anyone else?"
Akikawa Sarina nodded, "Yes, there is another person who has a grudge against the organization."
Conan stared at Akikawa Sarina for a long time, and Akikawa Sarina let him look at her like that.
"Mr. Amuro, do you know about your physical condition, Ms. Akikawa?"
"He knows I'm looking for someone to research an antidote."
Conan understood, but he didn't know the details of Miss Akikawa's past.
He once again looked at the calm-looking woman in front of him, "Ms. Akikawa, you are the same as Mr. Amuro."
Akikawa Sarana was a little curious as to why he suddenly said that, "What's the same?"
Conan looked into her misty blue eyes. He could not see any emotion in her eyes. She looked very calm, and the past that she had just briefly mentioned seemed not to be her own experience.
The young detective complained earnestly and sharply: "When you two face certain things, you both have a kind of quiet madness."
"You kid."
Hearing his complaint, Akikawa Sarana laughed, "I just think those things are in the past..."
Facing Conan's increasingly sharp gaze, Akikawa Sarana raised her hands in surrender, "Okay, okay, I'll be honest, before yesterday, this place was basically a restricted area for me.
But after what happened yesterday, my closest people have accepted my past. Even for them, I have to be more positive, right? "
Seeing that he was going to ask more questions, Akikawa Sarana interrupted him before he started, "Okay, I've already talked to you about a lot of past events and told you many of my secrets. You can't push your luck any further."
"hai~" Conan now also knows his limits, he nodded obediently.
"Okay, let's get back to the topic."
Their topic had already strayed too far, so Akikawa Sarana brought it back to the original topic, "So, do you want me to tell him your true identity or do you want to tell him yourself?"
Conan threw the question he had been thinking about from the beginning to Akikawa Sarana, "Ms. Akikawa, what do you think is the possibility that Mr. Amuro will hand me and Haibara over to the organization in exchange for a higher position after knowing the content related to the drugs?"
After he said this, Akikawa Sarina's eyes became a little strange, "What did Zero do to you that made you misunderstand him so deeply?"
"Ah?" Conan was stunned. What did Miss Akikawa mean?
------
The billions of points do not occupy the main content of the article, but they are the author's glass heart broken by reading the comments and thinking about it:
Some comments said: Sarina forgave Toru because when her identity was unknown, she used the things that happened in the laboratory to threaten her to cooperate, and she didn't want to waste her emotions with Toru and wanted to remind him that this behavior was a dog-licking behavior.
First of all, who is Touzi? He used Sister Bayonetta's weakness to threaten her, causing Sister Bayonetta to put a gun to her head. He and Sister Bayonetta have been in a cooperative relationship for many times, but he still dared to do this. It can be said that he is a person who likes to touch the tiger's tail.
As for Limu, in his eyes at that time, Limu was a man who almost killed him with a bomb not long ago. In addition, the true and false information about Limu that he had investigated in a short period of time had not been fully confirmed. In his eyes, Limu was a standard criminal.
It can be said that his attitude towards Limoux at that time was already very gentle, and his gentle attitude at that time was entirely due to his sixth sense when facing Sarina. If it weren't for his sixth sense at that time, based on his personality, he would definitely have done something more excessive.
Obviously, it is a good quality of not wanting to vent anger on others, so why is it called a bootlicker (eyes shifted). (Whispering: those dual-male protagonists in the police academy, those who risked their lives to save others, those who were 100% misunderstood, why are they not called bootlickers? If they change their gender, are they bootlickers?)
I don't understand and I don't know. In short, I am too sensitive.
There is also the saying that only Sarina is love-minded, while Toruko's feelings are not equal.
If Touko is not emotionally equal, the main story would have already entered the complete knife stage. For example, the showdown stage that will never come, those are the contents I originally planned to put in the extra.
Sarina can express her emotions freely because she doesn't have as much burden as Toruko. In her heart, she only has what she thinks is a terrible past. After realizing that her past is accepted by everyone, her mental state has improved a lot.
Compared with Sarina, Tohko's emotional line is hidden. As an undercover agent, he will respond to Sarina's emotions in various ways. This is not the emotional expression of a qualified undercover agent. In fact, he is already OOC in my writing. (It is also because my writing skills are not good enough, and I did not write out what I wanted to express. I will revise the text later.)
There are still many things I want to express, but if I were to say them all out loud, I would seem childish and it would also take up too much word count (I am still an author with some dignity and baggage to protect) (the content of my words did not take up any space in today’s update).
For the sake of my mood, I will read the comments less often in the future. (My friends are right, I can’t read the comments while writing, especially for someone like me who has a sensitive heart.)
Finally, I would like to thank all the cute people who have supported me. I bow my head in gratitude! For you who read my articles, I will continue to work hard and improve my writing style. I will go back and revise the previous parts. (I will mark them when I start revising them~)
