"It was Dr. Agasa who picked me up, and on a rainy night, at your doorstep."

When Ai Haibara talked about his past when he came here, he couldn't help but look at Dr. Agasa. It turned out that this old man was really kind-hearted and amiable, not a movie hero.

"When he saw me slumped to the ground, he picked me up."

"You're lying at my door?" Conan remained alert, even though the little girl looked lonely.

"You must not know, right? Ah, maybe you already know."

Haibara Ai glanced at Tani Mizuto, dressed in black at the other end of the sofa.

"The organization has sent investigators to your house twice because of all the people who had taken that medicine, you were the only one who did not confirm the death status, and the record was marked unknown."

"Of course, as a drug developer, I naturally went with me. But your house is covered with dust and there is no trace of inhabited people."

"That was the first investigation, and we ended it like that. The second time was a month after that, and the house was still covered in dust and there was no change at all. Even I thought you were dead."

"But when I noticed the abnormality in your closet, I felt goose bumps all over my body in a terrifying way."

"A month ago, all your childhood clothes that were still inside were gone."

When Ai Haibara talked about this, Conan looked frightened and his eyes were already lost.

But Tani Shuizumi looked at Conan with a strange look. After Conan noticed, he felt uncomfortable all over and asked, "What...what happened?"

"Nothing, I'm just a little confused." Gu Shuiquan's eyes were strange, "You have a mother of a well-known star and a father of a world-renowned novelist. The family is not short of money, right?"

"Uh...and...it's OK."

"Then your IQ should be fine, right?"

"It should...is pretty good..."

"So, why not buy new clothes to wear?"

"It was at night, the store was not open, and I hadn't calmed down from the panic of getting smaller."

"So, after you calmed down, you didn't react, and even put on all the clothes you had from your childhood in the closet? You are really a thrifty and rich young master."

“…”

"Well... it's the case anyway, putting the clothes back will make it easier to cause organizational suspicion." Conan said perfunctorily.

"Xiaolan has also seen you wear these clothes when you were a child? Are you not afraid that she will remember it? One piece of clothes is the same, it can be said to be a coincidence, and all the clothes are the same. That's too coincidental, right?"

"Does Kudo Shinichi gave all his old clothes to Conan Edogawa, a child from a distant relative's house who usually doesn't even send a greeting card? Is this reasonable?"

“…”

"Then I'll go back and solve this problem, haha..." Conan touched the back of his head and said with awkward smile.

After being interrupted by Tani Mizuto, Conan's fear was discontinued, so he had to calmly continue to listen to Ai Haibara's explanation.

"Uh, keep talking, Ai...Haihara."

“…”

Haibara sighed and continued.

"We have used that drug to successfully reduce the body of mice in the experiment, so I think this assumption is natural. After Kudo Shinichi was injected with APTX-4869 by the organization, he is likely to have become a child."

"Then everyone in your organization knows that I'm getting smaller?"

Conan continued his previous fear, his thin body began to tremble slightly, and his big head seemed to fall off at any time.

The fear was so good that Haibara Ai was very happy to see.

"Thank me, I changed the record on your information to the words confirming death." Haibara Ai said as if the queen was giving the knight the supreme reward.

"Because I am more interested in you, I will let you continue to live. If I report to the organization, you will be killed before I get you."

"However, if the organization knows that your record has been corrected by me, the betrayer, may doubt you again."

"You really betray them?" Conan asked.

"Yes, I was very dissatisfied with the organization taking the drug that was still under test for people without authorization. However, the biggest reason is that my sister..."

"Sister?" Conan asked in confusion.

"She has been killed and was asked several times by the organization's people, but the organization's people still don't give me a reason. So, before getting the organization's answer, I resisted by interrupting drug research."

"Then, I was detained in a room in the laboratory, waiting for the judgment. Since I was about to die, I simply surrendered to APTX-4869."

"Luckily, I used the drug that killed me, but it turned my body smaller and allowed me to escape from the handcuffs. I escaped from the institute from the garbage mouth, but I had nowhere to go."

"The only hope is you, Kudo Shinichi."

"I think, since you and I are in the same situation now, you should be the one who understands what is happening to me best."

"What a joke! How can you, a guy who studies murder drugs, trust you!" Conan roared. "Do you understand? How many people have you invented killed?"

Conan was furious, his fists clenched, and was already on the verge of an explosion.

"Can't you kill someone without poison?" Gu Shuiquan interrupted, "She is still far behind Einstein and Nobel."

Haibara Ai glanced at Tani Mizumizumi unexpectedly, but he didn't expect that he would actually speak for him.

"But..." Conan still didn't calm down.

"You forgot the guess I told you at that time? The original purpose of this drug was not necessarily a poison."

"..." Conan finally calmed down and remembered the elixir of immortality mentioned by Gu Shuiquan.

"Don't be so excited, Shinichi, she has left the organization now."

Dr. Agasa is very easy to trust others, and as a scientific researcher, he can better understand Ai Haibara's situation. In any system, the right to speak for scientific researchers is not guaranteed.

"Now she is the one who knows the best that kind of drug, and maybe she can find the antidote."

"It's useless, how could I remember that such a huge amount of data, they were all stored in the laboratory, and now that laboratory no longer exists."

"Why is this?" Conan asked.

Ai Haibara walked to the bookcase by the window and picked up a newspaper.

"This is a newspaper three days ago. The institute has been burned. You can't find anything when you go there now. After discovering that I'm missing, the organization has already taken the initiative and destroyed all the institutions related to me."

"And, they should be looking for me everywhere now, so I thought you were also members of the Black Organization before."

"It seems that the organization doesn't know what I'm getting smaller for the time being, but as long as they continue to kill people with that kind of drug, there will be other cases of getting smaller sooner or later. Once they discover what I'm getting smaller, they will never let me go. Then..."

"How about it, will you drive me as a dangerous person out of here, high school detective, Shinichi Kudo?"
