"Shinichi?" Dr. Ari blinked in confusion.
"Uh...nothing..."
Conan suppressed the feeling that "this kind of thing happened to Brother Gengyi and it's not against the law at all" and reorganized his thoughts:
"Doctor, you just said that after arriving at the Bell Tree Tower, Brother Gengyi did not look for clues with Teacher Judy and the others, but went back directly with Haiyuan and the others, right?"
"Um."
Dr. A Li said: "The Memu Police Department was also on the scene at that time. As soon as Geng went over and said hello, he picked up Xiao Ai and the others."
"Huh...that's good."
Conan breathed a sigh of relief and whispered softly:
"Because it was a sniper case, Sarada didn't follow up on the investigation, so when he saw the death scene of Kevin Yoshino, he definitely wouldn't think of other incidents."
He thought that in the kidnapping of Matsumoto Kiyonaga and the Yasuki Domon incident, he had more or less 'dealt with' that person.
The information about the 5-chome Mori Detective Agency has been exposed.
But without the information that APTX-4869 can rejuvenate, it is absolutely impossible for the other party to know that he is the high school detective Kudo Shinichi, so... he must not let the other party divert his attention to the doctor and Haibara!
He considered the pros and cons.
Here, Dr. Ali, who had no idea about this, replied to Ye Gengyi's email.
2-chome, No. 22.
Ye Gengyi looked at the content of "Conan is fine, Xiaolan has gone to buy dinner for us", and replied with the word "um", and got up to go to the bathroom to take a good shower.
Fatigue has always been accumulated on the nerves, and it always needs relief.
20 minutes later.
As soon as Ye Geng walked out of the bathroom, he met Haiyuan Ai standing in front of him holding two cups of coffee:
"Can we talk?"
"Just finished brushing my teeth..."
Ye Gengyi took the coffee and took a sip.
"..."
Hui Yuan Ai suppressed the desire to complain, lest the topic be diverted by the person in front of her again, and asked very seriously:
"I knew not to talk about this topic with Ayumi and the others before... But then I realized that if I didn't ask, would you have to go back to sleep as if nothing happened?"
Ye Gengyi put the towel for wiping his hair on his shoulders, pointed to the sofa beside him, walked over and sat down:
"It's not that complicated. What do you want to know?"
Haiyuan Ai sat next to him and said, "That...did you do it?"
'That' naturally refers to Kevin Yoshino hanging on the BELL TREE tower. While waiting for the ambulance to arrive, she went over to check.
"..."
Ye Gengyi examined the Loli in front of him for a moment, took another sip of coffee, and shook his head:
"No. But it has something to do with me."
"Tell me carefully..." Hui Yuan Ai looked serious.
Ye Gengyi retracted his gaze, turned to the ceiling, and casually made up: "After witnessing Fujinami Hiroaki being sniped, I reported to the organization that because of my status as a technical association expert, I was involved in a case and was accidentally targeted by a recently active sniper. Come on, the other party may want to kill me, please send a cadre from the organization to solve it."
Huiyuan Ai was startled: "So, you have been out these past few days because..."
"Well, use it as bait."
Ye Geng nodded: "After all, I am also a rare genius. If I die like this, it will be a loss to the organization..."
Well, even if it is true, please don’t say that you are a genius in front of others so casually, please...
Hui Yuarai's thoughts couldn't help but wander for a moment. He already believed more than half of this argument and continued to ask:
"What is the code name of that cadre? Has he already set his sights on Edogawa?"
I knew that Little Radar would ask this question after concealing this part of the truth. However, just like the spaceship incident, telling the truth would be beneficial to the growth of the child. Ye Gengyi thought to himself, But he said without any pause:
"I can't tell you the code name, so as not to reveal a flaw in front of the little detective... Also, he didn't target that kid this time, but earlier. If there wasn't an interest relationship between 'me' and 'him', I’m afraid that boy is already gone.”
"What!? It will be earlier..." Haiyuan was shocked.
"Isn't that boy always like this?"
Ye Gengyi said: "Being able to survive till now depends entirely on luck."
"..."
Hui Yuarai lowered his eyes slightly, with a hint of helplessness in his tone: "I know, I know...it's just that this time...it's a bit beyond my expectation."
"Um?"
Ye Gengyi repeated the question: "What is your expectation?"
Haihara Ai was silent for a moment, raised his head and looked at Ye Gengyi, and said: "When I saw Edogawa from the power distribution room of the Bell Tree Tower, I thought he was dead..."
She paused, her expression became a little complicated, and continued: "And, at that time, I actually thought it was you."
Ye Gengyi: "..."
Haihara Ai breathed out: "I know I shouldn't think this way, but Edogawa's appearance at that time was so terrifying. It reminded me of seeing those mice that died in experiments before..."
"Um."
Ye Geng nodded, "It's very vivid. When I have time, I'll ask you what that person did to the little detective."
Haibara Ai couldn't help but feel speechless: "Aren't you worried that he really killed Edogawa?"
Ye Gengyi took another sip of coffee: "The reason why life is powerful is that even when facing the most desperate situation, they can always find some turning points at the last moment."
Haiyuan Ai rolled her eyes, "I always feel that you have a pretty good relationship with that person..."
Even she herself didn't notice that her mood was obviously much more relaxed now than when she first went to Ye Gengyi to find out about the situation.
"so so."
Ye Gengyi said without comment, "But if the little detective continues like this, it will be hard to say next time."
Hearing this, Hui Yuan Ai also frowned slightly.
But before she could ask, Ye Gengyi continued:
"Don't think too much, remember... I taught you that the more critical the moment, the more you should do what you are good at, and learn to leave what you are not good at to others."
"Of course I remember, and those are not words of 'comfort', right?" Haihara Ai said.
"Because you don't need comfort in this case."
"ah?"
"When the sky falls, a tall man holds it up."
Ye Gengyi used the hand that was previously holding the coffee cup to press the loli's head and rub it, "You are too short."
Haiyuan Ai was stunned, watching Ye Gengyi finish drinking coffee and turning towards the bedroom, muttering:
"That's because you are too tall..."
Raising her hand to touch the top of her head where there was still some warmth in her palm, she smiled slightly: "...it's pretty good too."
