(The paragraph about telomerase in the previous chapter has been revised. If you are interested, you can read it. If you are not interested, you can just not read it. It will not affect your reading.)
"Yes, premature aging." Tiayu said to Edogawa Conan seriously, "There is no examination on the degree of DNA methylation in the physical examination report, but I speculate that although you have become smaller, your DNA methylation The degree has not decreased, but has increased, which means that although your body has become smaller, the age of your cells has increased."
Seeing Edogawa Conan's confused look, Tiayu explained: "The medicine you took is actually poison, which will induce programmed cell death and strengthen the activity of telomerase, thereby enhancing the ability of cells to divide. In the end, the user died quickly, and there was no way to check the cause of death afterwards. But now, due to the accidental effect of the cell's self-destruction program, the rapid cell division was suppressed soon after it started. There are a lot of things during the division process. The cells died, and the number of new cells that divided was not enough to maintain your original size, so you were shrunk to a child state. But according to my estimation, the medicinal properties of the medicine you took are actually still lurking in your body, just because An unknown factor has been suppressed, but if a certain stimulus is given, it may be possible to reactivate the drug's medicinal properties and make your cells enter a state of rapid division again. Theoretically, as long as the rapid division process is properly guided, it can Let your body return to its original state, but if cell division cannot be suppressed in time, then you will..."
Tiayu didn't say anything further, but Conan Edogawa didn't understand that if he couldn't suppress cell division and allowed the cells to divide uncontrollably, it would be tantamount to death from poison.
"So the safest way I can think of is to first find a drug and develop an antidote, then stimulate the remaining medicinal properties in your body, and wait until you return to your original state before taking the antidote to neutralize the remaining medicinal properties. However, this will still speed up your DNA. Methylation will have a slight impact on the upper limit of your life span."
Seeing that Edogawa Conan's face looked a little ugly, Tiayu immediately added: "But as long as you don't change sizes frequently, you will only lose your theoretical lifespan. The theoretical lifespan of an average person is about 120 years, but what you can really do is Very few people live to this limit, so the loss of this theoretical lifespan will theoretically not have any impact on you."
"It means it's actually okay, right?"
Edogawa Conan finally breathed a sigh of relief. He was shocked when he heard Tiayu say that he would lose his life.
"It cannot be said that your current body is actually very unstable. The medicinal properties and inhibitory factors of the drug are now in a very delicate state. Once the body encounters a stimulus that affects the balance of the medicinal properties and inhibitory factors, your body will have It may become larger, but once the balance is re-established, you will become smaller again. As you become larger and smaller, the degree of DNA methylation will intensify, so Kudo-san must be careful not to irritate his body."
Tiayu warned Conan Edogawa. .
Hearing this, Edogawa Conan frowned slightly.
It gets bigger when stimulated, and then gets smaller after a while. Why the hell does this look like that? What's wrong with me in human form?
Edogawa Conan has mixed feelings in his heart.
"Then, what should I pay attention to?"
Edogawa Conan humbly asked Tiayu for advice. He was still young and did not want to grow old before his time.
"Hmm... Anyway, try to eat as little irritating food as possible first, and don't do things that are irritating to your body. I don't know what the inhibitory factors are that suppress the medicinal properties of your body, so I can only remind you. .”
Tiayu replied.
"Why is this so..."
Edogawa Conan frowned.
The words Tiayu said seemed to be useful, but they seemed to be completely useless. They seemed to have no meaning other than making him scared.
But Mao Lilan nodded seriously and said: "Okay, I will let Xinyi eat mild food in the future, and I will not take good care of Xinyi and prevent him from messing around."
"Wait a minute, Xiaolan, do you really want to take care of me like a child?"
Edogawa Conan was shocked. He didn't want to live a life controlled by others!
"Shinichi, this is a time of life and death, don't act like a child!"
Mao Lilan looked at Edogawa Conan with dissatisfaction.
This child is really not willing to obey discipline no matter how long it is!
Mao Lilan seems to regard herself as Edogawa Conan's parent and is prepared to strictly discipline him.
"Okay, I've said everything I want to say, so come back to me if you find the medicine or other problems!"
Tiayu said to Maori Ran and Edogawa Conan.
"Thank you so much, Tiayu-sensei. If it weren't for you, Shinichi might have died for no apparent reason!"
Mao Lilan said to Tiayou very gratefully.
Edogawa Conan said strangely: "Teacher Tiayu, why are you helping us so much? This is only the first time we have met."
Dr. Agasa and Suzuki Sonoko have been friends with him for more than ten years, so they are naturally willing to help Edogawa Conan unconditionally, but Tiayu is willing to help him develop an antidote and create nano-organs for them, although in the end they all It didn't work out, but Tiayu's desire to help him was genuine, and he could still feel it.
Tiayu glanced at Yan Kai first, and then said to Edogawa Conan: "Because this is what Kai-kun asked me to do!"
"Why are you so attentive to the request from classmate Yan Kai? Could it be..."
Edogawa Conan's eyes swept back and forth between Yan Kai and Tia Yu.
"No, no!" Tiayou waved her hands hurriedly, and then said a little lonely, "I am a useless adult. I have received so much help from Kaijun, but I can't repay Kaijun with anything. It's hard for Kaijun to find him now. I helped, and of course I will do my best to repay Kaijun!"
"Classmate Yan Kai, have you helped Teacher Tiayou?"
Mao Lilan looked at Tiayou curiously.
"Yes, Kaijun saved me and my sister Eve, and my best friend Liangzi, he saved three of us!"
Tiayu's eyes sparkled, and then she said to Edogawa Conan and Maori Ran: "Before, I was actually arrested by an underground organization to develop biological weapons. Although it was forced, it also indirectly harmed many people. Later, I I escaped, and it was Liangzi who took me in, but I caused Liangzi to be hunted down by people from that organization. If not for Kaijun’s help, Liangzi and I might have died. And so did Eve, who was executed by that organization. Cruel experiments, life has become very fragile, and I may not even have a few years to live. It was Kaijun who cured Eve again. Kaijun has shown great kindness to me. It’s okay for me to do anything to repay Kaijun. !”
Does it include committing yourself to each other?
Edogawa Conan subconsciously thought, well, probably every man has such thoughts in his heart.
"Is Teacher Tiayu still being hunted by that organization? Isn't that very dangerous?"
Mao Lilan's focus was completely different from Edogawa Conan's. She looked at Tia Yudao very worriedly.
She was not worried that if Tiayu was gone, no one would help Edogawa Conan develop an antidote, but she was really worried about Tiayu's safety.
"It's okay, that organization is gone."
Tiayu smiled and waved her hands.
"No more? Why not?"
Mao Lilanqi said.
"It was destroyed by the Sanji Sect." Tiayu showed a relieved expression, and then explained, "Ryoko and I were already teachers at the private divine school at that time, and were protected by the Sanji Sect. That organization was in the early hours of the morning They raided the residence where Liangzi and I lived at that time, and later we were rescued by Kaijun, who reported the incident to the Sanji Sect, who immediately sent people to Europe and eliminated the organization that night."
Is this the efficiency and dominance of Japan’s number one school?
Edogawa Conan was shocked.
Mao Lilan also looked at Edogawa Conan with melancholy eyes.
If Edogawa Conan had adopted Michiko Tetsu, the president of the Tetsu Group, as his godmother when he was still Kudo Shinichi, he should be able to enjoy the same protection as Mr. Tiayu now... no, a higher level of protection!
But now there is no regret medicine to take, and Mao Lilan can do nothing but sigh.
But this was Mao Lilan's misunderstanding. Although the Sanji Sect was obliged to protect the students and employees of the private Shenjian School, the main reason why they launched such a big battle that time and even pursued the "Black Gun" organization across the country was because of the Grand Master. The masters of Kitayama Xiongwu and Mikado Ryoko were old acquaintances, which is why they came up with the Fury of Thunder. Therefore, even if Kudo Shinichi really becomes Tetsume Michiko's godson, the Three Extremes Sect may not be as powerful in attacking the men in black organization as before. So powerful against "Black Gun".
And compared to the "Black Gun", the activities of the Men in Black organization are more secretive. The organization lurks deeper in the darkness. If you want to dig it out, even the Three Extremes Sect cannot do it in a short time, so Mao Lilan is Take it for granted.
Having said everything that needed to be said, Tiayou put one hand on the ground and tried to stand up. She kicked her legs a few times, but her butt remained in place, not even able to hang up.
The three of them looked over with doubtful eyes. Tiayou looked at Yan Kai with big tearful eyes: "Kaijun, I have been sitting for too long and my legs are numb..."
"..."
Yan Kai was speechless, but he still bent down and stretched out his hand to Tiayou: "Come on, Teacher Tiayou."
"Thank you Kaijun!"
Tiayou happily held Yan Kai's hand and stood up, but she still had no strength in her legs. After standing up straight, her feet softened and she leaned into Yan Kai's arms.
Wow, he is really cheap...
Edogawa Conan felt a little envious. Although this teacher Tiayu looked a little unreliable, he was indeed an out-and-out bastard.
Yan Kai didn't feel that he had taken advantage. He helped Teacher Tiyayou upright, and then did not take back his hand, but supported Tiyayou.
His legs would become so numb just after sitting on the ground for a while. He could no longer trust this teacher's nervous system.
"I'm sorry Kaijun..."
Tiayou looked at Yan Kai pitifully and said.
Seeing Tiayou's appearance, Yan Kai could only show a comforting smile: "It's okay, Teacher Tiayou."
Then he said to Mao Lilan and Edogawa Conan: "The things that need to be said have been said, so we won't disturb them any more. Goodbye."
"Wait, classmate Yan Kai, teacher Tiayou, let me see you off!"
Mao Lilan said hurriedly.
"And I!"
Yan Kai and Tia Yu are both here to help him. Even if Edogawa Conan is not interested in the world, he should show his respect at this time.
"You're welcome."
Mao Lilan opened the door for Yan Kai, and Yan Kai helped Tiayou, who had numb legs, out of Mao Lilan's room.
Mouri Kogoro, who was eavesdropping against the wall, ran away immediately when he heard the door open, and then saw Yan Kai helping Tia Yu out of the room.
Mouri Kogoro was shocked. Originally, he only heard the voices of Xiaolan and Xiaoguitou in the room, and because Yan Kai and Tiayu didn't do anything in the room, but now it seems that they did something strange! And in front of her daughter who is as pure as paper!
Mouri Kogoro immediately rolled up his sleeves and wanted to go up and question Yan Kai, but thinking that if he ran out at this time, he would easily be complained by Xiaolan, so he could only hold back.
How can we fix it? You stinky boy, please remember, don’t even think about entering my house again next time!
Mouri Kogoro said bitterly.
After Yan Kai and Tiayu left, Mouri Kogoro pretended that nothing had happened and returned to his desk, leaning on his chair. He was in a bad mood and immediately lit a cigarette.
Thinking that his beautiful employer was not here to find him, Mouri Kogoro was in a bad mood because he failed to make any money and had a wonderful affair. Only cigarettes and beer could soothe his soul.
The cigarette had just been lit, and sparks were falling from the burning tobacco. Just as Mouri Kogoro was about to open a can of beer, the cigarette in his mouth was suddenly snatched away.
"Xiaolan, what are you doing!"
Mouri Kogoro screamed as his cigarette was snatched away.
"No smoking is allowed when Conan is around from now on!"
Mao Lilan glared at Mao Li Kogoro.
Speaking of irritating things, the smell of cigarettes is definitely for children. Although it was fine before, what if the quantity is not enough? What if Shinichi smokes too much second-hand smoke and gets bigger!
"No, can't I smoke in my own home?"
Mouri Kogoro was stunned.
"No, not even with Conan here! And dad, you are an adult now. You need to learn to be a role model in front of children. What does it look like to drink, smoke and bet on horses every day!"
Mao Lilan's attitude was very determined.
"I..." After being taught such a lesson by his daughter, Mouri Kogoro felt that it was time for him to act like the head of the family.
He took out the cigarette box on his chest, popped a cigarette out and dropped it into his mouth. He stood up and looked down at Mao Lilan, and then strode out the door: "I'm going to smoke outside, so you won't have anything to say!"
"Go out and wait until the smell of smoke dissipates before coming back!"
Mao Lilan shouted at the back of Mao Li Kogoro's departure.
The family is unfortunate... How come the daughter who is usually so well-behaved and obedient suddenly turns into a housekeeper like Miles? Was it what that boy said to Xiaolan just now? Don't let me meet you again, or you'll have a taste of my over-the-shoulder throw!
Mouri Kogoro cursed in his mind as he walked.
Mouri Kogoro hurriedly walked downstairs, intending to go to a nearby alley to smoke a cigarette. A woman who lowered her black round-brimmed hat to cover her appearance, accompanied by a man, passed by Moori Kogoro and walked towards Moori Kogoro. Go in the direction you came from, and your destination is the Mori Detective Agency.
