Great Swordsman Ke Xue

The power of the soul cannot be seen or touched. Koji Shimizu can't find the reason, but he has a rough guess.

Perhaps it was because of his promise that Hideaki Hosaka's obsession was fulfilled, and when Hideaki Hosaka's soul dispersed, maybe he gave him his pure soul power?

This is just a guess, Shimizu Koji cannot be sure.

But he is certain of another thing, that is, Hosaka Hideaki's special situation is definitely very rare.

——

The night falls.

Miwa Town, 2-chome.

Turning from the spacious road into the dark alley, Conan's expression gradually became a little strange, because his home was in this area, well, his former home.

But does this little girl live nearby? Why didn't he remember that there was a family called Huiyuan nearby?

Conan is still very confident in his memory, but he has moved away from here for a while, and maybe one of the nearby families has moved.

Holding his hands behind his head, Conan glanced at Haiyuan Ai who was walking in front and seemed to be still wiping away tears and sobbing. After thinking about it, he couldn't help but ask:

"Hey, once you get here, you can go back alone."

Hearing this, Hui Yuan Ai stopped slowly, put his hands behind his back, and turned to face Conan.

Conan couldn't see his expression clearly, but when he saw it, he stopped and stood there.

"APTX-4869."

"Eh?"

"That's the name of the medicine you took."

"Ha, what are you talking about? I've never taken that kind of medicine."

"Really, but I will definitely remember the name of this medicine correctly." Haihara Ai turned around very calmly.

"Because that's the drug the organization ordered me to develop myself."

Haiyuan licked his hair beside his ear and looked back with such malice that Conan took a step back involuntarily.

At this time, what neither of them noticed was that outside the alley, a footstep that was supposed to continue walking suddenly became silent.

Shimizu Koji was a little surprised. Why did he meet Haibara who was returning home at this hour? Aren't elementary school students supposed to go home at two or three in the afternoon?

And why is Conan here?

He heard the conversation between the two, especially Hui Yuan Ai's words, so he stopped silently.

"Organization? Pharmaceutical. Um, what are you talking about? What kind of medicine can a kid like you make?"

Conan's brain went haywire for a moment. Without him, Haihara Ai's sudden change in aura and expression was a bit too scary.

Haiyuan Ai had his hands behind his back. Although his movements were cute like a primary school student, his cold eyes seemed to be mocking Conan's ignorance.

"I'm just like you. I also took the medicine I developed. Under the accidental action of the self-destruction program of the cells, it damaged the bones, muscles, internal organs, and even hair in addition to the nervous tissue."

"All the cells have degenerated to the early stages of human growth. This is a mysterious poison~"

At the end of the sentence, Hui Yuan Ai snorted, and a smug sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"Hui, Haiyuan, are you—?" Conan looked frightened at this time, and even his legs were trembling.

"My name is not Haiyuan, Shirley——, this is my codename, it can also be said to be my real name."

Conan's pupils almost shrank to a point, and a large amount of cold sweat continued to seep out on his forehead.

He recalled the chat he had with Koji Shimizu a while ago, about vodka, gin, and the two men in black who also had alcohol codenames.

"How about it, I didn't expect it, Kudo Shinichi."

Haihara Ai's understatement of the last words also became the last straw that crushed his nerves and reason.

"You, are you an accomplice of those men in black!?" Conan gritted his teeth.

Hui Yuan Ai smiled disdainfully, "We don't have time to surprise you now, you confused detective."

"Nani?!"

"Did you forget? I told you, the place I live now is No. 22, Yoneka Town 2-chome. Yes, it is next door to your house."

Conan was shocked and quickly took out his necklace-style mobile phone, "Doctor?! Doctor?! Answer the phone quickly, doctor!"

"It's useless. No matter how you call, you will still be on the phone. As long as the receiver of the phone is taken aside, he will never be able to receive it."

"This is because he is no longer in this world."

Hui Yuan Ai clasped his hands behind his back and spoke calmly, as if he was talking about something as ordinary as eating and drinking.

And the more this happened, the more frightened Conan felt.

"According to the organization's investigation, the reason why you are still alive and even continue to be active as a detective is because of Dr. A Li."

"So for you, Dr. Ali is currently your last lifeline."

"You, you killed the doctor just because of this?"

Conan's tone became gloomy, and there was even an air of despair in his whole body.

"Hmm, what do you think? If you don't believe it, you can go and see the situation for yourself."

Conan glanced hatefully at Zhengshi Shiran, who was standing there like a well-behaved little girl. He gritted his teeth, pulled out his calves, and ran toward Dr. Ali's house deep in the alley.

When he passed by the door of his house, his heart sank even more when he looked at the house that should have been lit up but was now dark.

Could it be that Qing Shui is——?

With a playful smile on her lips, Haiyuan Ai watched Conan dive into the dark alley.

She tiptoed lightly, preparing to follow him slowly, looking forward to the next scene.

"Shirley?"

A soft murmur suddenly sounded without warning, and Hui Yuarai's body stiffened as he just took a step, and he froze in place.

The white light cast by the streetlight behind her was as white and freezing as the ice and snow on the mountains. As a tall shadow swallowed her petite body, Hui Yuan Ai shivered unconsciously.

Shimizu Koji quietly walked behind her with a pair of blood-red Sharingan eyes open.

He had tried it several times on the road, and the people he stared at with his eyes would feel somewhat uncomfortable.

And he can indeed use the Sharingan freely now, but the time each time is not too long. Koji Shimizu has not tested his current limit of use, but his intuition tells him that it should not change much from before.

As for Haihara Ai, she only felt that her hands and feet were cold at the moment, and she had a familiar feeling of being stared at. However, she didn't quite hear the short voice just now, it didn't sound like Gin.

"Unexpectedly, you are Shirley——, it seems that the organization has just given us this task, I am afraid that I have to hand it in early."

"Besides, you're pretty good at pretending to be a kid, huh?"

When Hui Yuan Ai heard this long list of familiar voices, but an extremely unfamiliar tone, she couldn't believe it, but she still turned her head tremblingly.

Koji Shimizu sneered, matching the pale lighting scenery - if it weren't for the school uniform he was wearing, he might be a little more scary.

However, for Hui Yuan Ai, what she just said was enough to shock her.

"you--!?"

What Qingshui Haoer didn't expect was that Haiyuan Ai's eyes trembled for a moment, as if he suddenly thought of something, and quickly calmed down again.

"Well, then please take me back."
