Chapter 434 Huiyuan Ai: Miss Anonymous is not right today
Miyano Akemi gently pushed open the basement door without making any sound.
But Haibara Ai vaguely saw the scene behind her from the reflection of the computer screen.
She grasped the anesthetic needle in her pocket and turned her head warily.
Then after seeing who it was, he was slightly startled: "... Miss Anonymous?"
Miyano Akemi nodded as a greeting.
During this process, her eyes fell on Huibara Ai's soft brown hair, and the slender fingers hanging by her side trembled slightly, ready to move.
But thinking of Jiang Xia's reminder and her usual appearance, Miyano Akemi could only temporarily suppress the idea of grabbing her sister and caressing her.
She raised her hand seriously and made a capsule shape, indicating the antidote for APTX4869.
Miyano Akemi still remembered Jiang Xia's reminder just now - if you run to your sister in person, you must have a suitable reason, otherwise your sister will be scared bald...
This instruction is indeed a bit abstract.
Haibara Ai looked at Miyano Akemi's hand pointing at the capsule and was a little confused at first.
But soon, she remembered that there was not much she could be of use in the Anonymous organization - apart from showing up from time to time to save her, the Anonymous people had only communicated with her on matters related to APTX4869.
Therefore, after a few seconds, Haibara Ai successfully understood the meaning of Miyano Akemi's gesture.
However, there was one thing that concerned her...
Huihara Ai's gaze fell on Anonymous' throat.
She twisted her fingers with mixed feelings, hesitated for a moment, and pretended not to understand the gesture: "You want medicine for your throat? I have cold capsules here... Um, are you sick? Or injured, or did you accidentally inhale some poisonous gas?"
Miyano Akemi shook her head and gestured again straightforwardly - the antidote for APTX4869. This was her excuse to see her sister.
Haibara Ai sighed inwardly and didn't dare to continue pretending to be stupid.
She looked at Anonymous carefully again and found no wound on her neck. Then she walked to the safe: "I have made several temporary antidotes of different durations, but there is no drug that can completely solve the problem..."
Taking into account the Anonymous' habit of appearing and disappearing mysteriously, Haibara Ai actually put together a box of various types of antidotes and carried it with her so that she could hand them to the Anonymous as soon as they came to her, so as to avoid being stabbed with anesthetic injections by some Anonymous with a quick temper.
But the antidote was placed in her coat, and the coat was hung at the door of the living room. Now, she was wearing pajamas - Huihara Ai did not expect that Miss Anonymous would go directly into the underground laboratory.
It seems that I have to carry the antidote or other things that the Anonymous want with me at all times when I am at home... Haibara Ai silently added a reminder to herself.
She fiddled with the safe in the lab and quickly opened the door.
Just as I reached out to touch the antidote, I suddenly heard a small clanging sound behind me, as if someone had tripped over something and was about to fall.
Haibara Ai was startled and turned around suddenly, just in time to see Miss Anonymous raising her hand to support the cabinet beside her and regaining her balance.
...What's going on?
Huiyuan Ai didn't bother to close the safe, and ran over to support her: "Are you okay?"
"It's okay." Anonymous looked down at her, took the medicine box from her hand and put it away, then patted her head, "Your hair is good. Stay up less late."
After that, she politely pushed the door open and left.
"……?"
Haibara Ai raised her hand in a daze and touched her fluffy hair that she had just washed. She carefully touched the place that had just been photographed by the anonymous person... It still felt fluffy and there was no sign of premature baldness.
...So, why did Miss Anonymous suddenly say that?
Doesn't her hair look as thick as the last time I saw Miss Anonymous?
Thinking of this, Haibara Ai couldn't help but imagine Dr. Agasa, especially his bald head.
Think about yourself again.
The two images gradually overlap...
The young scientist shuddered suddenly.
After a while, Huiyuan Ai came back to her senses from the terrible future. She ran out of the basement, but at this time, the corridor was empty - Anonymous left silently as before.
...He must be very busy. It's so late, and he still comes to see her. Maybe his boss asked him to work overtime again... Damn the boss of the anonymous organization.
Also, for some reason, Miss Anonymous today seems to be particularly similar to her sister...
A trace of uncontrollable nostalgia flashed in Haibara Ai's eyes.
She turned her head to look at the landline in the basement, hesitated for a moment, walked back to the laboratory, and gently closed the door.
…
Jiang Xia drove the puppet, climbed over the window and wall skillfully, took the temporary antidote away, and returned to his home.
That’s right, now it’s his turn to drive the puppet again.
——Although he got a lot of energy cores from Koizumi Hongzi, his ghosts also increased a lot. On average, the improvement was limited.
It now seems that the puppets can only maintain independent action time for a few minutes, and that is without any violent movements... If you really want to do something with the puppets, the ghost fetuses can only last for a shorter time.
After returning home and dispersing the puppets, Jiang Xia picked up Miyano Akemi, who was exhausted like a ghost cake, and shook her into a round shape, then temporarily put her back into the seal space to let her rest.
Although the duration is shorter, it is a leap forward compared to the previous situation where the puppet could only move its arms barely.
And now, Jiang Xia has also found a new way to collect energy cores.
...I don't know how long it will take for Koizumi Hongzi to recover. I have to go see her in a few days.
In addition, since magic exists in this world, there should be more than one magician named Koizumi Akako, and no one knows where the rest of the magicians are.
Also, how did Kidd find the place where he and Koizumi Hongzi were just now? That scene should have been separated by Koizumi Hongzi's magic.
...When Kidd shows up next time, I'll have to ask him if he has any magic secrets at home.
If so, urge Kidd to study hard and become a qualified magic boy...
It is very late at night.
Jiang Xia played with the puppets for a while, and after gaining a preliminary understanding of their evolutionary status, he lay down to rest.
…
The next day, Jiang Xia drove the puppet to the high school where Kidd was and made some brief inquiries.
Then it was discovered that although Kid had gone to school, Koizumi Akako's seat was vacant - she had taken a leave of absence.
...I don't know if he is hiding from people, or his magic power has not recovered, his body is too weak, or he feels embarrassed and doesn't want to see people for the time being.
Unable to meet the witch he had been dreaming about day and night, Jiang Xia had to temporarily return to his quiet detective life.
Two days later.
Jiang Xia was flipping through the registration book while waiting for a client to pick up the cat in the office.
Then he realized belatedly that he had been stood up by a client yesterday.
——This customer, named Kayo Shibata, had originally made an appointment to pick up her Siamese cat yesterday afternoon, but until now, the lively black-faced cat is still stranded in the office.
