Chapter 16 Flawed Rhetoric

On January 10th, at night, Mihua Town 5-chome.

"Lan, I'm going back first." Mei Daizi comforted Mao Lilan all the way, and accompanied Lan back to the door, before waving goodbye to Lan.

After being comforted by Mei Daizi, and knowing that Yamazaki went to find Kudo Shinichi, Lan put down the uneasiness in her heart for the time being, and went home first, "I'm back."

"You're back," Mori Kogoro greeted him behind his desk, holding a beer. He was watching TV. It was probably Ms. Okino Yoko's. Mori Kogoro was a fan of Miss Yoko.

Seeing that the rubbish produced by Kogoro Moori in one day has covered the top of the desk, and the surrounding ground is also sprinkled in a circle with Kogoro Moori as the center, Mao Lilan shouted angrily: "Dad, how did you make this happen?" It’s such a mess.” He picked up a bag casually and complained while tidying up, “It’s because of this that no business came to the door, and my mother left the house.”

"I'm going to choose a job." Mori Kogoro said in a tough tone, and dropped the beer can into the bag in Mao Lilan's hand, and then quickly changed the subject before Lan got angry, "Where is that guy who claims to be a detective? Didn't you go out together?"

"We were still together before we left the amusement park, but halfway..." Mori Kogoro hit him with a blow, and Lan recalled what happened just now, "I don't know what happened to Shinichi."

On the other side, Yamazaki thought about the information about Kudo Shinichi that he read yesterday, and judged that Kudo Shinichi should go home, so he followed to 2-chome.

It was raining, and the body had not adapted to it, and the clothes and shoes were not suitable, and Kudo Shinichi fell to the ground one by one. "It's only running such a distance, and I'm panting like this," Kudo Shinichi got up and looked at himself at the glass window on the street, "I, my body has become smaller, why, how could this be, could it be, At that time..." Recalling the words of the man in black, "Could it be because of taking that medicine." Kudo Shinichi shuddered.

At this time, Mao Lilan, who did not receive the news from Yamazaki to Kudo Shinichi, was calling Kudo Shinichi's home. Listening to the voice of the phone answering, Lan said to himself: "It's strange, why he hasn't come home yet." Maybe he went out to eat with his famous novelist father." Mori Kogoro said enviously. "Xinyi's parents immigrated to the United States three years ago, and now he lives alone." Listening to his father's nonsense, Lan shouted angrily at him. "So that's how it is." Mori Kogoro, who was overwhelmed by his daughter's aura, softened. "What happened, something must have happened after that," Lan thought more and more uneasy, "I'll go to Xinyi's house to see." Then he ran away. "What about my dinner?" Mori Kogoro yelled at his daughter's back. It seems that Mori Kogoro didn't even have money for dinner, let alone drink. The beer just now was left over from the New Year. Now The bottom is about to come to an end, Mouri Kogoro, who has always been moonlight, is completely hopeless, and there are still twenty days left.

Yamazaki watched the shrunken Kudo Shinichi struggling to reach the door of his house, and felt very interesting.

"Damn it, can't I even enter my own home?" Kudo Shinichi felt rather badly.

"Boom!" At this moment, there was a loud noise, and the wall of Dr. Ali's house fell down. Yamazaki looked around, and no one came to complain. Are they all used to it? Then the surrounding land should be easily taken away. It's down, Yamazaki thought...

"Dr. A Li." Kudo Shin saw that Dr. A Li had come out to take refuge, and shouted in the past, he wanted to ask for help.

"Who are you?" Seeing that the child knew him, Dr. Ali asked.

"it's me,

I am Shinichi. " Kudo Shinichi pointed to himself and introduced himself.

"It's the child of Shinichi's relative," Dr. Ali, who didn't pay attention, patted his butt, pointed to the Kudo's house next to him, and said, "Shinichi's house is next door."

"I'm Shinichi, if you don't believe me, I'll tell you about you," Kudo Shin saw that Dr. A Li didn't believe it, and tried to prove it to him, "Dr. A Li, fifty-two years old this year, is a strange Inventor. Although you claim to be a genius, the things you make are all scrap metal, and there is a hair growing on the mole on your butt."

Yamazaki almost burst out laughing when he heard it, this is exposing the old truth.

"This, this is indeed a secret that Xinyi only knew," Dr. A Li was also stunned. "That guy probably told my secret."

The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and Kudo Shinichi became more and more anxious, "That's not the case, I am Shinichi. I was given a strange drug, and my body became smaller."

"Did you become smaller after drinking the medicine?" Dr. A Li obviously didn't believe in the existence of this kind of medicine. "If there is such a medicine, I would also like to see it." Go to the police station."

Seeing this, Yamazaki wanted to go over and help explain. "Doctor, you just ran back from the Colombo restaurant in a hurry." At this time, what Xinyi said successfully caught Dr. A Li's attention, "You, how do you know." Dr. A Li asked him. "Because of the doctor's clothes, there are wet marks on the front, but not on the back. This is evidence of running in the rain. And your pants are splashed with mud. There are muddy roads nearby, only in front of the Colombo restaurant under construction. Your beard is still stained with the special meat sauce made by the Colombo restaurant." Xinyi said his reasoning from Dr. Ali in one breath. "You, you are..." Dr. Ali believed it. "This is just a preliminary reasoning, doctor." Kudo Shinichi posed a common posture, and finally succeeded in persuading the doctor.

"New, Shinichi." Dr. Ali's tone was trembling. Yamazaki understood this feeling very well. He had just experienced the feeling of such an event that subverted common sense happening in front of his eyes, and he had just seen it, not heard it. Said.

Seeing that Dr. Ari opened the door for Kudo Shinichi, the two entered Kudo Shinichi's house, and Yamazaki also turned in. Originally, I was planning to observe for a while, but I had to go in when I saw that Shinichi had gone to change clothes.

"It turns out that your body has shrunk because of the incredible effect of the undeveloped medicine." After listening to Shinichi's narration, Dr. Ali understood the whole story. "That's what happened." Kudo Shinichi complained after changing his clothes, "Really, my elementary school clothes fit me just right."

"You are really leisurely." Yamazaki said as he came in.

"Who?" Both of them were surprised at the same time. "How did you come in?" Dr. Ali blocked Shinichi behind him, but there was no way, because Yamazaki was also dressed in black. Xin, who had little strength, had to look behind Dr. A Li, "Who are you and why are you here?"

"Is it getting smaller, and the head is getting worse?" Yamazaki pointed out directly. "It's okay, doctor, he's my classmate," Shinichi walked out and said, "You already know." "Lan let me go and have a look," Yamazaki stepped forward and looked carefully, "I saw you lying on the ground when I went. , and then became smaller." "I see," Shinichi said, "and then followed me back."

"I dismissed those two patrolmen first," Yamazaki said with a frown, "you don't feel any discomfort?" "No," Shinichi said with self-consciousness, "what?"

"What's the matter?" Yamazaki said angrily, "Those two patrolmen reported to the police, but the person disappeared. How can I explain it to you? It's a loophole for you." "It doesn't matter, as long as you change back, No way." Shinichi said nonchalantly. "Heh!" Yamazaki was amused.

"Please, doctor, you are a genius, help me make a medicine that can restore my original state." Kudo Shinichi begged Dr. Ali. "It can't be forced, and I don't know the ingredients of the medicine." Dr. A Li didn't dare to speak indiscriminately. "Then, just find out where those guys are and get the medicine." Kudo Shinichi was full of fighting spirit. "Well, maybe it will help," Dr. A Li replied after thinking about it.

Yamazaki was already numb to the optimism of the two guys. At last, Dr. Ali was still clear-headed, and he solemnly said to Xinyi: "Listen well, Xinyi, if they know you are still alive, they will definitely come to kill you. You can't tell about this, absolutely. I can’t tell. Of course, I can’t tell Xiaolan either.” He looked at Yamazaki as he spoke. "You're still awake," Yamazaki said, "but it's too late now."

"What?" Shinichi and Dr. Ali were shocked. "Why do you say that?" Kudo Shinichi asked.

"It seems that the medicine does affect the mind," Yamazaki said to himself first, and Shinichi glared at him angrily, "Okay, let me analyze it for you."

"Do you know why those two guys ride the roller coaster? In order to observe the terrain, familiarize themselves with the terrain, in order not to be caught by the other party during the transaction, and to retreat better when an accident occurs at the same time." Yamazaki nodded and continued, "You planned to follow the man in black because you saw the man in black and felt his murderous aura, didn't you?" "It's almost like that." Shinichi replied.

Seeing this, Yamazaki said angrily, "You really want to die, how can ordinary people kill people like hemp? You said that you only saw one at the scene, and with their cautious attitude, it is obvious that the other is watching in the dark. .and being able to get that kind of picture shows that there are other downline personnel who are just here to act, which shows that they are part of an organized crime group.You said they used you as a test for new drugs , then those who can independently develop drugs and support this kind of behavior are probably not ordinary organizations. Maybe they also support other projects. The organization you found with the few people they belong to may just be an underground black operation of their consortium How can such a black organization be easily found."

Seeing Kudo Shinichi's expression of deep thought, Yamazaki said to Dr. Ali: "Even if the drug information is found, whether you can make an antidote is a big question." "What did you say?" Dr. Ali was angry up. "What I said is the truth." Yamazaki said with certainty. "You, you..." Dr. Ali was too angry to speak.

"Don't be angry, Dr. Li, you can't do it alone." Shinichi recovered from his contemplation, and first comforted Dr. Xia, "I did make a mistake. How did you dismiss the patrolman?"

"Finally awake, the side effects of the medicine have passed." Yamazaki said to himself. "I see you are different from the morning, what happened?" Xin saw the difference. "It has nothing to do with you," Yamazaki said, and then said what he had said to the two patrolmen before, and then looked at Shinichi and said, "Speaking of which, your head injury seems to be healed."

"It seems to be better, this medicine may have accelerated the healing of the wound," Shinichi said while touching his head.

"In this way, the medicine is more likely to save your life. You should also thank Miss Tong in the afternoon. If she hadn't called the police, you might have been shot dead." Yamazaki speculated.

"Okay, let's not talk about this. You really did a good job, but what to do in the future, they have already reported it, and they will definitely follow up." Xinyi also wanted to discuss other things, "I shouldn't enter the house at all, let alone This dress should not be changed. Can you give some professional advice, can the traces of what I did at home be erased."

"Oh, so, you learned about our Yamazaki family from your father's information." Yamazaki asked.

"I don't know. I can only say that I know some rumors. After all, he was not born in that era. He just found some clues from the files of the Metropolitan Police Department when he assisted in handling the case." Shinichi explained in detail.

"So that's it." Yamazaki nodded, and then said, "I'll talk about the policeman later, let me talk about what you did first. This trace can't be erased. If you come in and only work in the living room, you can still pretend to be Refuge. You find your own clothes that's the big hole. You should ask the Dr. to buy you some new ones. Since you live alone, a lot of places are dusty, not to mention unused for many years, put six or seven The room of the clothes closet of the 1-year-old child is too messy, now I have to ask Dr. A Li to search your house..."

"Wait," Dr. A Li interrupted him, "I'll go through the new family again, this..."

"That's a really good idea," Shinichi exclaimed.

"This can only be covered up for a while, after all, judging from Dr. Ali's past personality, he can't do things without asking himself." Yamazaki hit Shinichi, "If you investigate carefully, you and Ali will definitely be found. The doctor spoke, and the time is easy to find out after you took the medicine, after all, the loud noise can be heard for several streets."

"Then find someone to clean it." Dr. A Li said.

"No, that's tantamount to telling people that this is trying to cover up." Shinichi said.

"Not only can it not be cleaned, but it has to be kept for a while, at least until the middle of the month." Yamazaki said. "Why?" asked the doctor. "At least until the beginning of next month, I usually ask the people to clean it once a month, and the rooms where the things that were not used in the past, since my parents left, I only ask someone to clean it every six months, just before the Chinese New Year. .”

"Xinyi, why are you like this," Dr. Ali complained, "I still clean it often."

"Can you live in your house without cleaning it," Shinichi called out, "and, you only asked the people to clean it last year, why?"

"It's nothing, it's all used for research and invention." Dr. A Li murmured.

"That's right, I just want to have a few dinners with Lando." Seeing the doctor softened, Shinichi became more imposing, "The prices are too high now. Cleaning is calculated according to the area, and cooking is calculated according to the calculation." , is too cruel."

"Okay, where is all this going?" Yamazaki brought the topic back, "Since it is an experimental new drug, someone will definitely come to investigate it. The arrangement we just made, the behavior of the doctor, can bother them and make them continue to investigate The past behavior of the doctor, this is not clear, although the doctor will not leave without warning after investigation, but there is still the possibility of expediency, so it is difficult to judge."

"So that's how it is." The doctor understood.

"It's just affecting their judgment," Shinichi said, holding his chin, "There's a big problem here..."

"This is also one of the purposes of my coming." Yamazaki said.

"Doctor, you didn't go out today, did you?" Shinichi asked.

"I only go shopping in the morning, in the afternoon and evening, and in the evening I went to the restaurant in Colombo." The doctor thought for a while and said.

"Then change it to say that the child is hiding and the friend is not there because he is old. After chasing the child all afternoon, he is tired and can't run anymore. I will leave it to you and he will go home and wait. After returning home, because After a lot of physical exertion in the afternoon, I was hungry, so I went to the Colombo restaurant for dinner.” Shinichi looked at the doctor and said, and then said to Yamazaki, “I didn’t buy clothes because the child was scared, and I didn’t know you well, so I refused to go. If you still have to run home by yourself, you escort him back. The doctor saw that the rain had wet the child's clothes again, and he couldn't go back home temporarily, so he went to Kudo Shin, who was very close to him. The family took refuge temporarily. Although Kudo Shinichi couldn't be contacted for a while, the child was soaked, so he had no choice but to find a piece of Kudo Shinichi's old clothes from Kudo Shinichi's family to change for the child, so as not to let the child Catch a cold. Look how it looks."

"You made it up well." Yamazaki replied.

"Xinichi, can you say it again." The doctor didn't fully understand.

Xin explained to the doctor in detail again and again, from the afternoon when the doctor took the child to the amusement park, to finding a piece of clothing for the child just now, everything happened. Seeing that the doctor understood, he pointed to himself and said to Yamazaki: "So, You also helped me prepare the child's information?"

"I'll talk about this later," Yamazaki asked without answering him, "What are you going to do about it? This is the biggest flaw. Even if we prepare more countermeasures, it will not help."

"Cold salad," Xinyi spread his hands and said, "They also said that they just developed it, who knows if there will be a corpse left behind." Then he urged, "Quickly tell me, what are you going to do with this identity information," he said Glancing at the doctor who was still remembering what happened this afternoon, "I originally wanted to discuss it with the doctor, but since you are here, I think it must be better prepared than the doctor's, isn't it?"

"Why are you in such a hurry?" Yamazaki asked.

"Can you not be in a hurry? After you come here and make such an analysis, I feel that I will live like this for a long time. I don't want to become a black household. I don't even have an ID card." Shinichi said to Yamazaki angrily, He also rolled his eyes, but what he did at this time only showed his cuteness, not annoying.

"That's for sure," Yamazaki replied with a smile, seeing his unconscious look, "This is also one of the purposes of my coming, I want to ask what you mean, what's your name..."

"Shinichi, are you there?" At this moment, a voice came from outside the door, interrupting Yamazaki's words. The three of them were startled when they heard the voice, it was Lan's voice, Lan came.
