"That girl is really something."

They lied to me and said they had gone to sleep, but they were still working on it.

He didn't intend to tell Ai about this.

Because he understood Ai's urgent desire to develop a permanent cure.

As long as this girl doesn't stay up very late and takes care of her health, he won't say anything.

"Sigh..." Guangyou couldn't help but sigh, "If only I knew about this, I could at least be of some help."

The development of the antidote is now entirely dependent on Ai Haibara alone.

Although he has formed alliances with several organizations.

He has a good relationship with several of the members, such as Shuichi Akai and Jodie.

But he only has a good relationship with a few members.

Our relationship with those organizations isn't that good yet.

It's not impossible to get help from those organizations.

However, the other party will need to spend manpower, material resources, financial resources, and a considerable amount of time to develop the antidote he needs.

It certainly couldn't be free.

This reward cannot be such a small amount as a few thousand US dollars.

It would cost at least several hundred thousand, and even millions is quite normal.

Actually, he also had some concerns.

If the Americans knew how to manufacture this drug, given their character, who knows what they might do.

He was quite conflicted.

Actually, when you think about it, he still doesn't know enough.

If he also had the relevant knowledge, then he could help Ai share some of the burden.

Instead of letting her be in charge of research and development alone.

Saying all this is pointless.

It's too late for him to start learning now.

After tidying up the desk and tucking Ai in, Kōyū prepared to return to the agency.

Halfway there, Guangyou felt a few drops of rain falling on him.

"The weather really does change so quickly."

After saying that, Kwangyu hurriedly ran towards the agency.

This proved to be a wise choice.

Shortly after Kwang-yu returned to the agency, the rain turned from a light drizzle into a downpour.

After quickly washing his face and drying himself off, Guangyou went to bed to sleep.

...

The next morning, Guangyou was awakened by a phone call.

He picked up his phone, glanced at the caller ID, answered the call, and asked:

"Doctor, is there something you need calling so early?"

He went to bed late last night, intending to sleep a little longer.

But what Dr. Agasa said immediately dispelled his last remaining drowsiness.

Kwang-woo, who was lying in bed, planning to take a nap after the call, sat up abruptly upon hearing this and said nervously:

"What? Ai is sick?"

...
