Child 5
"Gray...Graybara," Edogawa Conan turned his neck stiffly and met the girl's dark gaze. He didn't say anything bad about her, but he was frightened by the ghost-like appearance of the other party. "I just chatted with the doctor... Did you take a shower?"
"Yes," Huihara Ai picked up the towel and wiped the slightly wet ends of her hair. She still had the scent of shower gel and the warmth of water vapor on her body. "Do you think I would be covered in dust, Great Detective?" A day and a night's work was indeed nothing for this talented young scientist, but if she had the conditions, she certainly wouldn't want to endure being unkempt. "For a lady, this is really a disrespectful assumption."
"No, I didn't," Edogawa Conan shook his head quickly, but he felt relieved in his heart because of this familiar, slightly spicy speaking style. Although he knew that Haibara Ai was strong, losing someone close to her was still a major blow. If it could cheer Haibara Ai up, he didn't mind being ridiculed a few more times. "I was just a little surprised that I didn't see you go to the bathroom." But Dr. Agasa's house was quite big, and Haibara Ai was small, so it was not surprising that she went to the bathroom when he was communicating with the old man. The young detective quickly brought the topic back on track, "By the way, have you found out anything? What did that Kelver leave you?"
Huihara Ai had just received the hot water handed over by Dr. Agasa, and had not yet taken a sip when she heard the question. She could only answer speechlessly, "Well... it's an experimental record." She shrugged, "I will skip the too professional part. In short, it's an experimental record of a new type of sleeping pills."
"Sleeping pills?" Edogawa Conan was stunned. He never expected that another sleeping pill would suddenly appear at this time. "What kind? Is it related to APTX4869? Is Kelver also responsible for the research of sleeping pills in the Black Organization? And--"
Facing Edogawa Conan's rapid-fire questions, Huihara Ai just calmly sipped the water in the cup, "Calm down, great detective," she answered in an orderly manner, "It is a sleeping pill that is even comparable to the doctor's anesthetic. It has different onset and duration of action depending on the dosage and personal constitution. It is not related to the research of APTX4869. I don't know what drug Kelver is responsible for researching in the organization, but the goal to be achieved is the same as APTX4869. Therefore, this sleeping pill is definitely not required by the organization. It is more likely that he is researching it privately..."
"Then why did he give this to you?" Edogawa Conan frowned, "Is there any other information in that phone?"
"Yes," Huihara Ai nodded. She sighed, and a slight crack appeared on her calm expression. "He gave me permission."
The brown-haired girl took out the phone and placed it on the coffee table. This time, Watson didn't need to unlock it. The phone screen automatically lit up, followed by a casual voice.
"Welcome to Eden, how can I help you?"
.
"Brother transferred the authority to her," Tong Xiangwang blinked, but his tone was not very surprised, "Why?"
"...Because," Alvin was silent for a moment, then slowly spoke, his dark green eyes carrying a gloomy and reserved look, "Arts said..."
"——Leave some things for your sister to do on her own."
