After lunch, Haihara Ai obviously felt a little more dizzy.
In the morning, she was watched while taking a cold medicine with water. It seemed that it was of no use as she said.
Lust fell into thinking.
To be honest, he hates changes, so he doesn't want to return the things he collected from Haihara Ai, even if he wants to recruit her now.
However, children's bodies are inherently fragile, and Hui Yuan Ai's condition shows no signs of improvement. If things continue like this, let alone recruiting, they may not even be able to sell them for money.
Anyway... no child would carry poison with him, right?
Lust thought for less than three seconds in total, then turned around and left the kitchen, returned to the office and took out a metal box from the drawer.
Open it, and the half grid on one side is full of red and white capsules.
Lust carried the medicine box and returned to the kitchen.
"Here." He pushed the medicine box onto the table in front of Haiyuan Ai, "It's your stuff. Do you want me to get you a glass of water?"
"Thank you."
Lust stood up and poured water. Haiyuan Ai opened the medicine box and put a red and white capsule into the palm of his hand.
……
Kuroki received a call from the kidnapping gang underneath an abandoned factory. The content was that the preliminary blood match was suitable and further inspection was required.
The other party issued a long checklist, and Kuroki mentally memorized it. The first thing he thought about when he hung up the phone was that there was still signal in this place.
So is the place where the hostages are stored further or deeper?
"No, he said 'under the ruins', which means there is space for people to survive under the ruins... No, it may also be a hidden space formed by collapsed buildings."
"Anyway, it's still too difficult to find, and I don't know if this is the right direction."
"I don't know when the police signal car will arrive here..."
While thinking about the existing clues, Kuroki Jin dialed Kosen's phone number and relayed what the kidnapping gang had just said.
"...We have prepared the relevant things here. You have to go and deliver them again."
"Yes, I know." Kuroki Ren was not surprised, "Ask your sister if she has any ideas about the space where people can be hidden under the ruins."
The speaker on the other side should have been turned on. As soon as Kuroki Jin finished speaking, Miyano Akemi's voice came: "Xiao Ren, shouldn't you be familiar with this kind of place?"
Kuroki Jin was stunned, "I? Familiar?" Then he immediately thought of a venue that perfectly met this requirement.
"You mean the base of the organization? The kidnapping was done by the organization... No, the team that kidnapped Thousand Heads of Peace fought with the other party, it shouldn't be us."
"I have investigated the abandoned bases organized in the Tokyo area in the past twenty years. There are countless small bases but most of them have been bulldozed. There are only four medium and large bases in total."
This is normal. The construction of medium and large bases is too time-consuming and laborious, and each abandoned base costs a lot of money. People who make decisions must be cautious and cautious.
Moreover, I don’t know how many floors have been built below the medium and large bases, and it’s not easy to bulldoze them.
And a recently abandoned base is...
"R011 Scientific Research Base."
Miyano Akemi reminded: "We have no chance of trial and error. If the other party is really hiding here, they will definitely have many people."
Kuroki Ren lowered his eyes: "It means that if I am alone, I will probably alert the snake and get caught by them."
"Xiaoren..."
"I'll contact the police. If it's not here, I will take them to the remaining three places."
Miyano Akemi didn't speak any more. After waiting for half a minute, Kuroki Jin hung up the phone and dialed Edogawa Conan.
Conan answered immediately, and before Kuroki Jin could say anything, his excited voice came through the microphone: "The south side, the last place where those people were imprisoned is the south side, underground in an abandoned hospital."
That must be there.
Kuroki Jin shook his mobile phone, and the dangling silver medal covered the sneer at the corner of his mouth. He said: "Let the police take the people, I know the location."
Conan paused with a slightly complacent expression.
He worked hard to pry people into corners and found the opponent's weaknesses before Wada spoke. How did Kuroki Jin get the information?
Wait, did he say yesterday that he interrogated a person... Is that what he meant?
"...Are you listening?" Heimuren's voice came without sadness or joy.
"Ah, yes." Multitasking is too childish for Conan, "I remember the location, where should we meet first?"
Kuroki Ren raised his eyebrows.
"Destination."
Kuroki Jin couldn't wait any longer. He felt that he was burning with anxiety even if he stood there for even a minute. The emotions that had been suppressed for many days suddenly burst out. Except for his mind that was still calm, his limbs felt like they were on fire.
He opened the door and got into the car, started the car and stepped on the accelerator, all at once.
Fortunately, in order to deal with emergencies these days, he has always kept weapons in his car, and now he is not afraid at all when he rushes directly to someone's home.
...No, that was their hometown.
Hui Yuan Ai hesitated while administering the medicine.
There is indeed medicine for treating colds that she carries with her, but it is not the one she is holding now.
This is the antidote to APTX4869, a temporary antidote.
APTX4869 induces programmed cell death, thereby killing people invisible. However, after some people take it, all cells in bones, muscles, internal organs, hair, etc., except the nervous system, will degenerate to the stage of childhood due to the accidental action of the cell self-destruction program.
Or adolescence.
The temporary antidote for APTX4869 is an inhibitory drug that is completely opposite to its pharmacology. People like her or Conan who have taken the drug may not have major problems if they take the antidote. However, if a normal person takes the antidote, according to the pharmacology
It is said that they will die due to rapid cell failure.
If she can still argue that APTX4869 is not hers to decide where others will use it, then now, the greatest wish of a certain detective developed by herself has to bear the sin of murder.
Haiyuan Ai hesitated in her heart, but decisively took out a few capsules and poured the powder into the pot.
Even though Lust seems to believe her, the food she eats must have been taken by her first. Even if necessary, Haihara Ai has no doubt that he will use those children as poison testers.
She didn't wait until night before taking action. She cooked one bowl of lusty soup at noon, and there was still more than half of the pot left. This is where the medicine was given.
People will have visual blind spots. If he has already entered something to ensure that it is correct, his vigilance will be greatly reduced.
Haihara Ai watched Lust instruct someone to move her computer, and got her a plate of biscuits that she found from nowhere, and added a cup of black coffee.
She casually took a medicine and recorded the name engraved on the inside of the capsule.
Time passed little by little, and most of the pot of soup was divided up by some people. Haiyuan Ai patted her hands that were stained with medicine powder, and finally roughly classified these things into categories.
"Thank you." Lust handed the coffee to her, "Is your cold better?"
"Yeah." Haiyuan Ai didn't want to speak very much. She felt that she had difficulty breathing and blood seemed to be rushing to her head.
"What do you want to eat tonight?"
Haiyuan Ai glanced at him with a half-smile but not a smile. This was not asking her what she wanted to eat. It was just something he wanted to eat.
