me, the protagonist

On the same day, 3:00PM

When Yamabuki Sakura finished her announcement and hurried back to the Armed Detective Agency to continue her tutoring.Zhongyuan Zhong also finished his daily affairs, and stopped by the artist department on the way to inspect.

The Artist Department of Morisha is equipped with a building and a business qualification certificate, and there are also backbones who have assumed management positions symbolically, but after all, it is still in the early stages of development, and there are not many employees in the magnificent office building.

In addition, the port mafia does not actually have the habit of taking a long holiday, so the tasks that need to be dealt with during the New Year are not very piled up.

Zhongyuan walked several floors, the central air conditioner warmed the air slowly, the desk and the sunlight were just right, and not even one employee encountered it.

——not to mention the only artist.

If you just walk around and you can meet something like that, it really is the brain that has been smeared by the sun.

Standing in the empty office area, Chuya twitched the corner of his mouth.The writing on the black oil-based marker on the travel board is marked:

"Sakura Yamabuki: Announcement from 14:00-16:00 Sasuke Shopping Center"

Or send a text message to tell her that the police station activity is coming up.

While waiting for the elevator, Nakaya took out his phone and sent Sakura Yamabuki a LINE message.

According to Yamabuki Sakura's previous surfing speed, she could receive a reply within a few minutes at the latest.But this time, for some reason, Chuya waited until the elevator door opened, and the message he sent didn't even show "read".

The elevator door opened with a ding, and there was already a person inside.

Nakaya put his phone away, nodded absently to the man, and pressed the button on the first floor.

It took a few seconds for him to react, and he turned around suddenly: "Why is it you!"

The blond man said without emotion: "From the perspective of legal relationship, I am still an employee of this company and have signed a labor contract."

Zhong Ye clicked his tongue and asked, "Then what are you going to do during legal working hours?"

Toru Amuro stopped talking, and stood in the corner of the elevator with his shoulders folded, his expression solemn, as if he was constantly weighing and considering some important matter.

Of course, Chuya Nakahara reported everything he knew to Morio Foreign Exchange, including the fact that Toru Amuro from the entertainer department was an undercover police officer.Zhong also felt that even if he didn't follow the method of dealing with traitors, at least he had to get rid of the other party.

As a result, Mori Ogai not only retained the opponent's position, but also decided to transfer Amuro Toru back to the port mafia headquarters after a period of time.

This is a dangerous move, but it is not incomprehensible for Zhongyuanzhong.

After a short silence, Amuro said calmly: "No matter what you think, Port Mafia is one of the guardians of this city."

"Actually, it's not just the Metropolitan Police Department who sent me here as an undercover agent." Toru Amuro said, "Before I sneaked into your place, I actually carried out an undercover operation in a certain organization."

That is to say, Toru Amuro has three identities.He is now ostensibly a member of the Port Mafia and a second identity as a member of a criminal organization codenamed "Bourbon".In fact, "bourbon" is also a disguise.

"That is to say, after you went to a criminal organization as an undercover agent, that organization sent you to us as an undercover agent?"

Zhong Yuan was also speechless: "...do you have something to do?"

He felt that Toru Amuro's life was so complicated that eight hundred minds might not be enough.

Amuro said: "It is a transnational criminal organization with strong assets and deep connections in politics, economics and academia. They often buy some promising people for their own use and develop some unknown drugs."

Zhong Yuanzhong also frowned: "This purpose is too ambiguous, isn't it?"

Toru Amuro was unmoved: "Before I was sent here, I was instructed to lurk for the time being and stay put. Wait for the visitors from Academy City to leave before obeying orders."

"A visitor from Academy City?"

Nakahara also noticed something strange, and he asked incredulously: "Didn't you come to Yokohama last October? Misaka Mikoto came to Yokohama for an exchange, which was decided only last December!"

The reason Misaka Mikoto came to Yokohama was to exchange with Sakuragaoka Women's Higher College.

But in October, before Sakura Yamabuki came to this world, there was no school called Sakuragaoka Girls High School in Yokohama.

Central Plains also suddenly felt creepy.

After the report at the school, the Boy Detective Team went to Dr. Ali's house, trying to finish the remaining games before school started.

Dr. Ali is really a kind elder. He welcomed the children in with a smile and went to prepare snacks and drinks for them.

Conan is really not interested in the games that the Detective Boys are obsessed with. His real age is already in high school, and it will take a lot of energy for him to force himself into a group of kids.

He sat on the sofa and watched TV one after another, with his left ear going in and his right ear out, thinking about a puzzle he saw in his mind.

"Eighth." The girl at the other end of the sofa said suddenly.

Her voice was cold and inorganic, and it sounded like a piece of ice was suddenly swallowed by her ears.

Edogawa Conan came back to his senses, he didn't know why: "What?"

"The Institute of Biology was attacked, and this week is the eighth." Hui Yuanai motioned him to watch the TV screen.In the small white text scrolled at the bottom, the attack on the research institute of Sato Biopharmaceuticals in Itabashi was being reported in advance.

There were no casualties and no major property damage.It's just that the project research team leader disappeared.

"Jiro Sato, the research direction is in the field of molecular biology. It is an exaggeration to be called the "hand of God" that can separate even nanometers. Huiyuan smiled sadly, then raised his head:

"Do you know what molecular biology is mainly used for?"

"Genetic engineering?" Conan didn't know why she suddenly mentioned this.

"That's right," Haibara Ai nodded, "To be more precise, it's 'DNA recombination technology'.Intercept what is needed from different DNAs, and then form new substances. "

For example, it is like extracting the parts used to express the two traits of "red" and "rabbit" from the DNA of strawberries and rabbits.

Then new DNA is spliced, and the "red fur rabbit" is born.

"In short, it is a process similar to "cutting and sewing".The drug that turns you into a primary school student - APTX4869, a considerable part of which is isolated from the DNA of the lighthouse jellyfish. "

The entertainment program has finished broadcasting the dynamics of the rookie idol Yamabuki Sakura, and replaced it with a formal host to report the attack.

Conan's expression gradually became serious.

The lighthouse jellyfish is the only known creature in the world that can revert from the adult stage to the larval stage, that is, "rejuvenate".

Because there is no limit to the number of rejuvenation times, this creature can theoretically achieve immortality.

"The research and development is entirely based on this. That is, completely intercepting the part of the immortality of the lighthouse jellyfish from the DNA, and combining the drug with the human gene, it may be able to bring the dead back to life-such a theory."

Hui Yuan Ai smiled again, but it was not warm.She gets a little more chatty when it comes to her area of ​​research:

"However, it is very difficult, no, or impossible to perfectly replicate this immortality at the molecular level that cannot be seen under a microscope."

Organizational technical capabilities can only be observed and imitated.This is also the reason why the efficacy of APTX4869 is extremely unstable.

It is not a "fairy medicine" and is even used as a poison.

Huihara Ai's eyes fell on the screen, which was showing Sato Pharmaceutical's headquarters company: "But it's different now, Sato—"

"The heir of Sato Pharmaceutical has entered Academy City."

Conan cut off her words, and finished the rest of the sentence very quickly: "Maybe they have obtained the technology to successfully separate DNA, and those people are focusing on this, and kidnapped Jiro Sato."

"This is just my guess. "In order to take the research results as my own" or "Abscond in fear of embezzling funds", there are any possibilities—"

Ayumi's surprised voice sounded from behind the sofa: "Doctor, did you also use this as a wallpaper?"

The two turned their heads and saw that Ayumi was holding the doctor's mobile phone.The phone screen was turned on, and there was a faintly pink and white photo on it.

"What wallpaper, let us take a look!"

Genta and Mitsuhiko, who were playing games, approached curiously, recognized the person on the screen at a glance, and said loudly, "Isn't this Sister Sakura?"

The doctor smiled and touched the back of his head.

hey hey...

Conan's mouth twitched.

"Ah, don't you know?" Hui Yuanai looked at his expression and raised his eyebrows: "It's the urban legend of "Fortuna Goddess of Beauty". "

"Isn't Fortuna the goddess of fortune? The goddess of beauty in Roman mythology should be Venus."

"That's why it's an urban legend." Haibara Ai took out her mobile phone, and the wallpaper was a poster of Sakura Yamabuki:

"Right now, there are rumors everywhere that as long as you use Idol Sakura's screen saver, you can get good luck. I heard that someone's terminal illness was cured because of it."

"Like magic or superpowers. She might be a magician or superpower."

Both Kudo Shinichi and Edogawa Conan are firm materialists.Conan's expression didn't improve at all because of this, he didn't know what to say:

"'Magic' or something, it's hard to imagine you saying that. "

"I don't see any difference between 'magic' and 'science'. "Haihara Ai turned the direction of the notebook on his lap, ""Science" is "magic" that humans can understand. "Magic" is a "science" that has not yet been mastered. "

"I'm quite interested in what kind of manipulation of the body can make people bend spoons or release a billion volts of voltage with just their thoughts."

Conan saw the words on the computer screen clearly:

"Registration for Academy City Entrance Tour is now open——!"

Conan: "You, you can't be..."
