The Grammatical Investigator in Conan

The flames in the shrine warehouse are still burning brightly, as if they are determined to burn everything inside before they stop.

In front of this unstoppable flame, Hattori Heiji gradually regained his composure, staring at the flames with his eyes for a long time, speechless.

Conan, who was standing nearby, glanced at Hattori Heiji, then looked around, and found that there seemed to be a few fewer people in the crowd.

Where is Qin Zhibo?

In the air-raid shelter of the shrine, Shimabukuro Keihe was still explaining his experience to Qin Zhibo.

"After I was caught by those robbers, they discussed killing me, but one of the female robbers said that I was still of use to her and wanted to spare my life."

"Later, when no one was around, the female robber took off her hood and gloves. The skin on it also began to turn gray-green, and one of her eyeballs bulged slightly."

"That girl and I have the same disease. She became a robber to treat herself."

Shimabukuro Keikazu's voice became increasingly dry and hoarse. He took a sip from the water glass on the table next to him and poured the rest into the flesh of his neck before regaining his voice.

"Later, I was imprisoned on the island by a robber. Not long after, the female robber came back."

"She used the money she robbed to buy a drug abroad, which is said to be able to treat this disease, but she is not sure about this, so she wants to experiment on me first."

"Less than a day after I took that medicine, the scales on my body began to fall off, and my eyeballs slowly retracted. Not long after, the gray-green color of my body also began to fade. It took about a week to become Very similar to normal people.”

Shimabukuro's choice of words is very particular, "similar" rather than "the same". It seems that some changes are irreversible once they begin.

"After seeing the drug working on me, the girl took the drug and got the same effect."

"But they didn't mean to let me go. Instead, they kept me exiled on an uninhabited island. They sent someone to deliver supplies and the medicine to me on time every month."

"In order to prevent me from noticing the direction of the land, he would approach the shore in a different direction every time. I could only calculate the dates of replenishment every month and search for supplies along the coastline."

"This situation has lasted for more than three years. I finally got the chance to escape a year ago."

"It was raining heavily on the sea that day, and it was still the robber who came to deliver supplies to me. I just happened to squat in the direction of his shore."

"Usually he would just throw the supplies on the beach and leave directly, but that time he seemed to have discovered something on the bottom of the sea and suddenly dived into the water."

"When I saw an opportunity to escape from the island, I quickly got on the boat he came on and left the island."

"When I got ashore, I knew for the first time where I had been for the past five years. It was in a place called Jinzhen in Okinawa Prefecture."

"I used the money on the ship as travel expenses, and finally returned to the American island. I wanted to meet Naoko again in human form, but I didn't expect it to be..."

Shimabukuro Keihe hunched his back, his emotions were aroused again, and he groaned in pain. Shimabukuro Kimie on the side couldn't help but sob.

Qin Zhibo was a little moved when he heard his bizarre experiences that were comparable to Robinson Crusoe.

He was exiled on an uninhabited island by bandits for four years, and finally returned to his hometown after returning to his original appearance. He wanted to meet his wife whom he thought he would never see again in this life, but found that the yin and yang were already separated.

If you think about it from his perspective, you can easily imagine how much he hates the murderer who killed his wife.

After four full years of suffering, the lonely watch on the uninhabited island every day was about to be realized, but was buried by the stupid behavior of another group of people. This kind of psychological gap is not something ordinary people can bear.

This time, Qin Zhibo sympathized more with the murderer.

The atmosphere was silent for a while. After everyone calmed down, Qin Zhibo continued to ask.

"Judging from the state of your body, it seems that you are going to look like that again."

Qin Zhibo doesn't want to pour cold water on it, but this problem is very real and must be faced.

Shimabukuro Keiwa nodded and said solemnly: "When I escaped from that island, I found some of that drug from the boat that the bandit drove."

"But after this year, I have consumed a lot."

As Shimabukuro Keikazu spoke, he took out a capsule from the drawer of the table behind him.

"You need to take at least one pill of this medicine every week to maintain the appearance of a human being. However, because the stock is getting less and less, I started taking only one pill every half a month six months ago. Now I have not taken the medicine for almost a month. It’s going to be unsustainable soon.”

"Can you lend me this medicine?"

Qin Zhibo reached out to borrow the capsule, held it in his hand and examined it carefully.

This is a capsule composed of half a white capsule shell and half a green capsule shell. There is no text or number logo on it.

Seeing Qin Zhibo's thoughts, Shimabukuro Kimie shook his head helplessly, "I have tried my best to find the manufacturer of this medicine, but I can't find any information on the market."

Although Shimabukuro Kimie said so, Qin Zhibo had medical skills after all and was able to analyze drugs. At this time, in Qin Zhibo's field of vision, there was an investigation point on the capsule.

【Appraisal√】

[Medicinal ingredients: unknown]

[Chemical formula: unknown]

[Utility: Inducing programmed death of target cells]

[Accuracy rate: 2.4%]

Qin Zhibo's medical skill was only level 2, which was not enough to investigate the ingredients of the drug, but he could analyze its effectiveness.

Programmed cell death.

This term always seemed familiar to Qin Zhibo.

After thinking about it for a moment, I realized that this was one of the effects of APTX-4869 that Haibara Ai, who was trapped in the Cupido Hotel at the time, explained to Conan in a desperate situation.

Could this be it?

Looking at this capsule with many problems, Qin Zhibo's eyes moved slightly.

But if you think about it carefully, the effects of this capsule and APTX-4869 are still different.

The effect of APTX-4869 is to induce programmed cell death throughout the body, so it is used as a poison by black tissues. However, drug A also increases the value-added ability of cells, and has a "rejuvenation" effect that can only be triggered by the chosen ones.

The current analysis results of this capsule only cause programmed death of target cells.

In addition, Qin Zhibo remembered that in Haiyuan Ai's memory, the APTX-4869 she swallowed was a red and white capsule, and this was a white and green capsule.

Moreover, if this is really A drug, it is absolutely impossible for the black organization to sell it to others and provide such a stable supply.

So overall, this capsule is not the same drug as drug A.

From the practical point of view, the effect of this drug should be to kill the part of the cells in the human body that turn into fish, but it cannot completely eradicate this part of the gene.

Once you stop taking the medicine, you will still return to your original appearance.
