"First, it's Shirley. According to the information I got, she has been conducting some extremely important mysterious research while she was in the organization..."
Bai Herui said this to Bai Hejing on the phone.
"The second is the intelligence from the FBI. According to their previous speculations, more than ten years ago, they once judged that Reger would gradually withdraw from the organization, but the final result was that Reger Er took over the task of reorganizing the European and American branches of the organization and became active again.
If I think about it carefully, if my parents' previous "business trips" were regarded as carrying out organizational tasks, then in the period from fifteen to ten years ago, the number of "business trips" I remember them having There is indeed a trend of gradual reduction, and there must be some special reason for this.
And this special reason is a conjecture that suddenly popped up in my mind after Xiaoying mentioned Kudo Shinichi's matter to me before...
Jing, Xiaoying said that Kudo Shinichi has now returned to the appearance of a six or seven-year-old child, and has also changed his name to Edogawa Conan and lives in the home of one of his childhood sweethearts in Japan. Is that true? "
Bai Hejing remained silent and did not respond, and although Bai Herui was asking, he didn't seem to really want Bai Hejing to answer, so he continued:
“Returning youth to youth and reversing time, these are legends that only exist in myths and stories. For our human world, it can be said to be a miracle.
If I just heard what Xiaoying said, I would definitely not believe this. However, before that, Shuichi Akai and Yukiko Kudo, both of them showed abnormality when they mentioned Kudo Shinichi. It was as if he was deliberately hiding something.
This forced me to seriously think about what Xiaoying said about the miraculous rejuvenation phenomenon that happened to Kudo Shinichi...
And before that, I also learned from Judy... This is an FBI agent who was active in Japan some time ago. I don’t know if you know Jing. This person has had many confrontations with the organization, and he also knows some information about the organization. .
I learned from her that at least before she left Japan, Kudo Shinichi, whose pseudonym was Edogawa Conan, had been involved in many incidents related to the organization, and even played a significant role in them.
So far, Kudo Shinichi's rejuvenation, his antagonistic relationship with the organization, Shirley's mysterious research in the organization, and Regel's great importance to this research...
Even if I find it unbelievable, I can't help but have the idea pop up in my mind. Could this mysterious research that the organization has been covering up be related to some kind of drug that can reverse time and rejuvenate?
Due to some special reasons that I don’t know yet, Kudo Shinichi was actively or passively exposed to this drug, and thus changed back into the appearance of a six or seven-year-old child. Therefore, in order to find the antidote that allowed him to change back, he also wanted to investigate this The mysterious organization, he finally embarked on the path of confrontation with the organization.
Among them, my father’s motives were also something I couldn’t figure out at first.
The FBI once speculated that my father might have wanted to retire from the organization more than ten years ago. This information was also told to me by my friend. Considering the situation of our family at the time, their judgment was probably correct.
But ten years ago, why did his father suddenly change his mind and take over the reconstruction plan of the organization's European and American branches?
Even the idea that Shirley was working on a miracle drug that could rejuvenate people seemed strange to me.
In my impression, my father is not a person with such strong desires. It can even be said that from a human perspective, my father has almost no superfluous desires.
If anything, what my father wants most is probably a peaceful life, at least that was the case more than ten years ago.
But why did this change ten years ago?
What could make him willing to give up his family by feigning death and return to the organization?
After much thought, I could only make a guess that I couldn't be sure of.
Jing, father, is there something wrong with his body that makes him need this miracle drug that can reverse time? "
"Xiao Rui, your reasoning... is very powerful." After a long silence, Bai Hejing finally replied.
Her words were a disguised admission of Bai Herui's reasoning.
It was incredible to her that she could use such extremely limited clues to restore the truth of the matter to this point.
"Thank you. Many of these are just my guesses. Although I didn't think of this at first, I still relied on my intuition to help you once..."
"Do you mean?"
"This fake Shirley incident."
Bai Herui explained briefly.
“After I first learned that the organization attached great importance to Shirley, I deliberately asked Aunt Yukiko to follow Shuichi Akai back to Japan, hoping to use her disguise skills to create a fake Shirley as a bait for the booby trap organization.
Of course, considering that the three of you have the same superb disguise skills, plus your familiarity with Shirley.
Therefore, although this plan seems to be a pretty good proposal for them on the surface, it actually hides very deep and fatal flaws..."
"I see...this matter was actually your handiwork..."
Bai Hejing was stunned when he heard this, then lowered his eyes and raised the corners of his mouth slightly.
"Then you really helped us a lot. Father also used their plan to confuse them this time, and then took the opportunity to find the real Shirley..."
"Well, it seems you got the best result."
Bai Herui's tone was calm, and he just briefly mentioned this matter, and then he shifted the focus of the conversation back to the previous topic between the two.
"So, Jing, I hope you can tell me, what is my father's real purpose?
Although I think my reasoning should be correct, after all, my father and I have not seen each other for ten years. Ten years is enough to change a lot of things in a person.
I have to be sure that my father, in the past ten years, is still as I speculated ten years ago, just for the mysterious drug Shirley studied, or... has he actually sunk into the black vortex of the organization? "
What Bai Herui is worried about is whether Bai Heqing's inner thoughts have changed from just wanting the mysterious medicine that can reverse time to treat his body, to a murderer who indulges in and enjoys organized killings.
When Bai Heqing heard this, she felt dazed for a moment. She remembered a few things that happened before she and Bai Heqing returned to Japan...
