Chapter 44 Akemi Knows Shiho Has Shrank



Chapter 44 Akemi Knows Shiho Has Shrank

Akemi Miyano's villa.

Not long after, he arrived at the villa, parked his car, and went straight inside.

Before even entering the house, the aroma of his favorite dishes wafted over.

He excitedly pushed open the door and came straight in, only to see Mingmei busy in the kitchen, not even hearing him enter.

She only turned around abruptly, put down the spatula, and hugged him when he opened the kitchen door.

"Alright, it's only been a short time since we last met, and you miss me that much?"

"Only a tortoise would miss you. You only send a text message every day to say hello, and you don't even make a phone call."

She seemed a little angry. Luckily, he had prepared things beforehand and took out his phone to show her the photos he had taken not long ago.

"I'm just busy, you see."

"Wow, isn't this a picture of Shiho when she was little?" Akemi exclaimed in surprise.

"Keep reading," Su Xingbo said with a mischievous grin.

She was a little confused, but nodded and continued watching.

"What?! You took a picture with Shiho when she was little? Where did you find a child who looks so much like Shiho? Take me to see her sometime. Shiho was so cute back then."

Sure enough, she just thought they looked very similar, but the idea of ​​them looking younger was indeed a bit far-fetched.

Su Xingbo shook his head and chuckled, "She's your sister!"

His tone was so firm that it left her somewhat bewildered.

"She's my sister? Then how come she's rejuvenated?"

"She wanted to escape the organization, so she took the poison that was being researched, which turned her back into her childhood self, and then she ran away from the research institute."

Today, Gin gathered many members because of this incident, and everyone discovered that Sherry should be killed without exception, regardless of whether she is dead or alive.

I've already found Shirley and spoken with her, so you don't need to worry, she's safe now.

Upon hearing this, Mingmei burst into tears, repeatedly saying that she wanted to find her sister.

He held her tightly and gently comforted her, "Mingmei, it's all my fault. I've let you down."

"But don't worry, I will provide her with funding and research equipment so that she can develop the antidote. You have to believe that Shiho has the ability."

Akemi nodded, but still wanted to see Shiho, only to be ruthlessly rejected by him.

The timing isn't quite right yet. Gin still has a lot of people searching outside, and some members even know Shiho from when she was a child.

Don't be afraid of anything, just be afraid of ten thousand.

When bad luck strikes, even drinking cold water can cause problems. He can't guarantee that their meeting won't be discovered 100% of the time, that's definitely a lie. He has a human skin mask, you know.

Of course, the most important thing is that it's hard to win over Shiho. If they were together every day, what chance would he have?

After calming her down, he turned off the stove and told her to sit down and rest for a while, saying he would take care of the rest of the kitchen work.

A moment later, the food was ready, and he placed each dish on the table. After that, the two of them sat side by side.

"Mingmei, eat something first. I'll go see Shirley whenever I have free time, and I'll take lots of pictures to show you, okay?"

Mingmei wiped away her tears and nodded gently. The two began to eat, a warm atmosphere filling the air. He frequently served Mingmei food and inquired about her well-being with concern.

After dinner, he sat with Mingmei on the sofa and watched the TV program.

As Mingmei's emotions gradually calmed down, she looked at him gratefully and said, "Thank you, thank you so much for everything you've done for me and Shirley."

He smiled and took Mingmei's hand, comforting her, "Don't say that. I'm doing this for our common goal. As long as Sherry can develop the antidote, we can leave here and live a good life somewhere the organization can't find us."

Akemi looked at Shirley with unwavering determination and said she would do her best to support her research. She then gave him all the money she had saved.

He had no other thoughts that night and simply held her as they fell asleep.

I couldn't sleep all night. When Makoto Asai died, I was just a little saddened that fate couldn't be changed and that people who were destined to die couldn't be changed no matter what.

He hadn't taken it to heart, but now that Shiho had shrunk, and just as Su Xingbai finished his surveillance and went to the villa with Sonoko to see Ayako.

The timing was impeccable; the villa's suspension bridge broke, preventing him from leaving. At that moment, Shirley took the pill, shrunk, and escaped.

This left him no chance to react; he could only watch helplessly as the butterfly flew by. Su Xingbai was now starting to worry about Mingmei's safety.

If fate cannot be changed and things eventually return to normal, then Akemi will likely be in great danger.

During this period, Mingmei should stay in the villa and try not to go out to reduce any potential trouble.

The system is completely useless; it's like a person with no brains, and he has to figure everything out on his own.

Another one is APTX4869. Ai needs to continue researching this drug to remove its poisonous effects and only retain its rejuvenating properties.

With this medicine, you can go anywhere in this vast world.

Everywhere you go, you'll be treated like an honored guest, and you can amass a fortune of gold and silver. That's what a carefree and leisurely life is all about.

Since I have nothing to do tomorrow, I'll go to Professor Agasa's house again and have a good chat with Ai.

As for Conan, forget about him.

Seeing him is like a mouse seeing a cat; they can't even run away in time.

The next day, Su Xingbo drove directly to Professor Agasa's house without saying a word.

"Are you really sure? Developing this drug is still very difficult," Shirley said with a serious expression.

"I believe you can do it. You are the genius scientist Ai Haibara!" Su Xingbo revealed a confident smile.

Shirley's face remained expressionless, but the slight upturn at the corners of her mouth did not escape Su Xingbo's notice.

It seems that everyone, regardless of who they are, enjoys being flattered.

"You help me research this medicine, and I'll help you cover your tracks. But you can't be like that idiot Kudo. Keeping a low profile will be safer," Su Xingbai said, still a little worried.

“Mm.” Sherry nodded.

He suddenly realized that he didn't seem to need to remind her. Since escaping the organization, Sherry had always been cautious, and the few times she was discovered were all thanks to Kudo.

"By the way, I also talked to Mingmei about you last night. She's very worried about your safety. I'll take her out to dinner in a while, and you two can meet then. Mingmei is always worried about your safety, otherwise I'm afraid she might take it upon herself to come looking for you, and it wouldn't be good if the organization found out."
