How many character cards do you have?

In the morning, Ah Li's house.

Hui Yuan Ai came out of his room with a yawn. At this time, Dr. Ali had already got up early and prepared breakfast. He also pushed an old man in a wheelchair to the dining table, and greeted her when he saw her coming: "Good morning, Xiao Ai."

"Good morning, Doctor."

Huihara Ai was sitting at the dining table, and when he passed by Meguro, he stopped and politely said to him: "Good morning, Grandpa Meguro."

However, Meguro Eluo, who was sitting in a wheelchair, still stared blankly at the porridge in front of him, and then slowly picked up the spoon and drank it without any response.

Haibara Ai is already used to his attitude. Anyway, when the Hattori detective sent him here, the other party looked like this. It seemed that he had forgotten a lot of things because of his age, and his reaction was also very slow. Haibara Ai gave him a simple examination, which was strange. What's more, the opponent's brain has not shrunk, and there is another point, his bones are different from normal old people, and the state is closer to the period of young adults.

Hattori left the old man behind and left in a hurry without saying much, just saying that Conan entrusted him to bring the old man here.

Well, what the hell is he doing this time?

Haibara Ai waited for Conan to explain himself, and Hattori-kun said that he would probably come back soon.

After the three of them had breakfast, the doorbell of Ali's house rang, and Hui Yuanai jumped off the chair: "I guess that guy is back, I'll go and have a look."

Really, if Conan didn't give her a reasonable explanation this time, he wouldn't just let it go.

"Hey, Conan, you..."

Huiyuan opened the door, and was about to complain, but found that a boy wearing a baseball cap appeared in front of him. His skin was so pale that it was almost transparent under the sun. He raised his iridescent eyes and looked at Huiyuan. Ai raised the corners of her lips: "It's our first meeting, Miyano Shiho..."

Hui Yuanai's pupils shrank.

At this time, Conan's helpless voice sounded from behind the boy: "Don't deliberately scare people."

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry." The boy changed his face instantly, and smiled sideways, revealing Conan behind him.

After the two of them entered the room, Hui Yuanai recovered from the shock just now, and glared at Conan: "Excuse me!"

"Don't be nervous, don't be nervous, there is a reason for this." Conan said awkwardly.

Conan briefly told Haibara Ai what happened in Xingluo Town, including the fact that Xingzhichuan is actually a special life form from an alien, and Meguro Era's original age.

Haibara listened calmly, then touched Conan's forehead: "It's strange, I don't have a fever."

Conan waved her hand away angrily: "I'm not sick, and I know what I'm talking about... Anyway, you'll know by doing a physical examination for him first, okay, Hoshinokawa."

Some rascals glanced at the room, and Hoshikawa glanced at him with drooping eyes, and said lightly, "I don't care, but when are you going to find the person who did the experiment for me?"

Conan: "I will definitely look for it, but there is a huge gap between us and the Black Organization, so we need to think long-term."

Hoshinokawa nodded indifferently, and followed Huiyuan Ai to leave the restaurant. Dr. Ali was curious about what they just said, so he followed.

The basement has been transformed into a simple laboratory exclusively for Hui Yuan Ai. She is ready to check the tools briefly, and said to Hoshikawa: "Then let's start."

Hoshinokawa nodded, and then began to take off his clothes. His movements were so fast that Haibara Ai didn't pay attention while holding the tools. When he looked again, Hoshinokawa was already standing there naked.

Hui Yuanai covered her eyes subconsciously: "What are you doing! You don't need to take off so many clothes for the inspection!"

Dr. Li, who came behind, had no scruples between men and women. When he saw the unusual place at first sight, he fell into a daze: "This is..."

"Xiao Ai...you can put your hands down, it doesn't matter."

Haibara Ai:?

Hui Yuanai put down his hand hesitantly, and then fell into the same sluggishness as Dr. A Li.

Hoshikawa stood there and tilted his head, looking at them puzzled, as if wondering why they reacted so strongly.

Hui Yuanai asked dully: "Asexual?"

"No, but it is basically impossible for a born asexual to grow up normally..." Dr. A Li's expression gradually became serious, "Maybe we have to give him a comprehensive examination."

……

So only Conan and Meguro, who was sitting in a wheelchair, were left on the spot. Conan looked at Meguro: "Mr. Meguro, it seems that I have never had a chance to say, thank you for saving us."

However, Meguro, who was sitting in a wheelchair, did not respond at all.

Conan blinked strangely, thinking that he didn't pay attention, and leaned in front of Meguro Eluo and said again, but Meguro didn't look at him, his eyes were fixed on the void in front of him.

"That, Mr. Meguro?"

Conan stretched out his hand and waved in front of Meguro, but there was still no response. He took a few steps closer to observe carefully, and suddenly found something wrong. Now Meguro Eluo looked exactly like an old man in his 80s and [-]s, with white eyebrows and hair. , cloudy eyes.

Conan's heart trembled, thinking that something had happened to him, he hurried down to the basement: "Hey, Hoshinogawa!"

The door of the basement opened, and Hoshikawa was wearing his clothes well, with a coat on his upper body and looked at him strangely: "What are you doing?"

Conan looked past him and looked in. In the room, Dr. Haibara and Dr. Ari were burying their heads and recording various values. At this time, the expressions on the faces of the two had reached an amazing synchronization. The fanaticism and curiosity under the shock are like a painter seeing the muse, and a scientist witnessing the door of truth.

The movement of the door opening didn't seem to affect the people in the room at all. Haibara and Ari were still busy tinkering with the experimental equipment. Conan felt a little bad, pushed Hoshinogawa away, and ran into the room anxiously, trying to get them out of this wake up in the state.

"Doctor, Huiyuan!"

Conan held the arms of the two of them, and Haibara and the others seemed to have just woken up, and looked at Conan in confusion: "What's wrong?"

"I just wanted to ask you what's wrong?"

Huiyuan looked at him inexplicably: "We are fine, but where did you find him?"

She looked over Conan's figure and looked at Hoshikawa who was shaking his legs on the bench with an innocent face, and said in a low voice: "His existence is simply a miracle..."

"I said it all, he is an alien species."

"Well, I believe it now, because his body structure is completely different from that of human beings, and it is difficult for me to study it with various methods." Huiyuan was a little excited, "If his situation is published, all scientific research The world will be crazy about him!"

"Don't forget that he is a research product of the Black Organization."

"Uh..." Huiyuan's originally excited expression seemed to have been poured with cold water, and his whole person dimmed, "...that's exactly what you said."

If the organization really researched something from him, this is definitely not good news for them, because it means that the organization's technological level may be more advanced than they imagined.

On the contrary, Dr. A Li was more optimistic, and said with a smile: "Think about the bright side, if that organization really researches something useful, it won't be shelved in the deep mountains and old forests."

Seeing that the state of the two is still normal, Conan breathed a sigh of relief, but still asked a little uneasy: "Don't you think your state just now is a bit strange?"

Huiyuan and the others froze for a moment: "No, it's just that I was subconsciously excited when I saw something beyond common sense."

Hoshikawa heard the worry in Conan's words, and curled his lips: "Don't worry, I didn't do anything to them."

However, Conan still stared at Hoshinokawa with some vigilance: "Then how do you explain Detective Meguro outside, why did he become like this?"

"That's force majeure, okay?" Hoshikawa said, "It's like you can't stop eating, right?"

However, Conan's face became even uglier: "For you, is that eating?"

"Our life forms are different, don't put human concepts on me." Hoshikawa said indifferently, "I just hunt for survival. Is there anything wrong with that?"

The atmosphere froze suddenly, and the confused Haibara and Dr. Ali could feel the bad atmosphere between them. They looked at each other for a while, and finally Conan took the lead to look away.

He... failed to refute, just like human beings eat all kinds of animals and plants. For the animals to be eaten, perhaps human beings are the murderous monsters that oppress their living environment, but now in front of alien creatures, human beings It is the side that is hunted.

But thinking of how Meguro, who saved himself, became like that, he inevitably felt powerless and guilty: "How can Mr. Meguro get back to his original state?"

"I don't know." Hoshikawa said calmly, "At least I can't do it."

In fact, the human beings hunted by Aya Hoshino are not demented, at most they are crazy. The reason why Meguro became like that is very simple - because Karasawa Taki can't control it.

Even deep magic has a limit. Counting the newly opened vests, Karasawa Taki has already created four souls to control four vests. The donkeys in the production team dare not work like this. If this continues, it will really be schizophrenic. .

So he considered it for a while and decided not to care about the vest of Meguro for the time being. Isn't this the right reason to use Alzheimer's disease? (bushi)

At this time, Conan keenly grasped the details in his words: "It's because you can't do it yourself, and you don't know the method, but it's not impossible?"

Xingzhichuan nodded: "This world is so big, there should be many ways to replenish vitality, right? Recently, isn't the way right in front of your eyes?"

Conan froze for a moment.

"It's Meguro Era himself." Hoshikawa announced the answer, "This detective has been targeting me from the beginning, you should be able to hear that he knows what happened in that town better than anyone else, He came here specifically to investigate this matter, and he even knew the solution in advance, didn't he?"

Indeed, Conan thought of a large number of lifeboats on the coast. Based on their conversations, if the judgment is not wrong, Meguro should have planned to take them out with lifeboats at first. It is hoped that everyone will be rescued by knocking out some people, and then choosing a time when the wind blows, or asking people outside to cooperate.

Since Meguro Eluo has made so many arrangements, it is obvious that he is aware of the existence of Xing Zhicai, the weakness of this creature.

Reminiscent of Meguro's previous experiences, it seems that he often dealt with such strange things. Conan doesn't think it's all a coincidence, at least he hasn't encountered even one time in solving the case, so it is obvious that Meguro is all targeted to investigate.

Coupled with the mysterious phone call that Hattori received that night, Conan speculated that there might be a mysterious organization behind Meguro that specializes in dealing with such incidents.

But here comes a new problem.

After that night, Hattori tried to dial the number again, but he never got through again, and the number was even canceled soon.

Who made that call? Is it the organization behind Meguro? If so, why didn't you contact me again?

Conan had various questions floating in his mind, but at least he was relieved to know that Meguro was not impossible to change back.

"By the way, what exactly happened, can you give me an explanation?" Hui Yuan Ai asked helplessly.

"Ah, I forgot to mention that Mr. Meguro was originally in his 20s, but because..." Conan looked at Hoshinokawa, and told Haibara and the others what happened in the town.

Haibara looked at Hoshinogawa with horror in his eyes, and hid behind Conan vigilantly: "It's thanks to you that you still have this kind of existence with you..."

"It's impossible, we don't know what the purpose of the organization's research is, and it's impossible to leave him in human society."

Conan sighed, he decided to try again, and pulled Hoshikawa up by the way: "Come with me."

Hoshinogawa then came to Meguro with Conan again.

Conan asked cautiously: "Mr. Meguro, if possible, can I share with you the organization you mentioned before? If I guess correctly, you should be a secret society that deals with these things."

However, Meguro still didn't respond, even if the culprit Hoshinokawa stood in front of him.

"Maybe it's deafness?" Hoshikawa said casually, "It shouldn't be dementia. I remember the researcher who stayed in the castle before, even though he was getting old, his early consciousness was still quite clear."

Conan glanced at him suspiciously, and tried to get close to Meguro's ear and shouted.

Meguro finally reacted, and asked in confusion, "Ah?"

"Mr. Meguro! I need your help!" Conan Chao shouted.

"Tie up? You want me to tie you up?"

"Help! It's help. I need you to answer me about the secret society you joined!"

"Sterilization? Do you want it?" Meguro asked like a demented old man.

Conan gave up in despair, even felt a little sad, and stared blankly at Meguro.

Haibara walked up to them, looked at Conan's expression, and sighed: "Hoshikawa is right, it shouldn't be Heimerz syndrome."

"how do you know?"

"Didn't the Hattori-kun before suddenly send someone to me, saying that he was sick, and he left before I asked what happened. I had no choice but to give him a general examination." Haibara Ai said the previous results, "In general, his brain did not shrink. It should not be the Heimerz syndrome you imagined. It may be caused by other reasons."

"I don't know the details. I don't have many instruments here. If he can be sent to a big hospital for a more detailed examination, maybe he can recover."

Conan calmed down and sighed: "That's the only way to go."

"Then what are you going to do with him?" Haibara looked at Hoshinokawa.

Hoshinokawa gave her an innocent smile.

Although he smiled beautifully, Haibara shook his shoulders and stood a little further away silently. Aging is the enemy of all women.

"What to do, you can't hand over people, and it's not clear what the purpose of the black organization is, no matter what, you have to figure it out, but one thing is for sure, the black organization has definitely not given up on the monitoring of Xingzhichuan , the foreigner who used to stay by his side is the supervisor sent by the organization, I took Xingzhichuan away, I don't know what he will do..."

"Wait, is the organization still paying attention to him?" Hui Yuan's face suddenly turned pale.

After a moment of silence, Conan said, "I'm not sure either."

Conan has only briefly read the information about the study of the color of the stars, but it is uncertain whether the black organization is still paying attention to this research and how much attention it is. The analysis made by the doctor before is also reasonable, since Lost in the deep mountains and old forests, maybe the organization has long forgotten that this happened.

Well, this kind of fluke mentality is not necessary, mainly because Conan has nothing to do, Hoshikawa must follow him to leave, he can't drive people out, and he himself has a certain degree of danger, Conan is really worried about letting him into human society.

"I advise you to prepare for the worst." Huiyuan folded his arms and said with an ugly face, "What if the organization doesn't give up its attention to this research, and Xingzhichuan disappeared just after you left the town? , then you are likely to be targeted.”

"Maybe, the people from the organization have already arrived at the door..."

"jingle."
