"If Kidd had the guts to appear in front of me, I would have beaten him to death."

That's right, as Fang Zheng said, Kidd didn't have the guts to send letters to him and Conan. If Fang Zheng was provoked, Kidd would die without knowing how.

"So the inviter this time is probably disguised as Kaitou Kidd, trying to attract the attention of our detectives."

"The reason why Belmode manipulated this letter may be because she found out that this letter would be sent to Mouri Kogoro. After all, with her status, it would be too careless to contact you directly.

.”

Fang Zheng didn't believe that Belmode could really be that stupid.

"So this letter should have nothing to do with the black organization, but the clues contained in this letter should be related to the black organization. That's why Belmod specifically wrote down his name."

Conan also understood now, and Xiaolan also raised her own questions.

"Then could it be that this organizer has something to do with the black organization?"

"Impossible. If the person who invited us to the banquet has something to do with the black organization, then Belmode leaving his name on it is simply asking for death. At that time, as long as one of us has nothing to do, ask the organizer why

There will be Belmode's signature, and she's basically doomed."

Fang Zheng shook his head.

"In comparison, what I pay more attention to is Karasuma Renye."

"You mean the rich man?"

"That's right."

Fang Zheng nodded.

"After you told me that this letter contained Belmod's signature, I sent people to conduct a series of investigations on the Dusk Annex. This guy named Karasuma Renye is indeed very suspicious, and I told you before

That story...I have an idea."

After saying this, Fang Zheng narrowed his eyes.

"Maybe Renye Karasuma faked his death."

"So what you're saying is that the rich man didn't die at all, but pretended to be dead and then sent people to take away the things in his annex?"

Conan frowned and thought for a moment.

"But Karasuma Renye is already ninety-nine years old. You can lie about other things, but you can't lie about your age..."

"Are you sure? Think of Mermaid Island."

"…………………should?"

Thinking of the longevity woman played by Shimabukuro Kimie, Conan's tone became less certain.

"Even if it's true, it happened half a century ago. That person named Karasuma Renya should have been dead long ago."

"hehe."

After hearing Conan's inference, Fang Zheng chuckled and pointed at him.

"Have you forgotten how you became like this?"

"Of course it's because of the poison."

"So who developed the poison?"

"The black organization...wait a minute, you don't want to say that the black organization developed this drug to make Karasuma Renye rejuvenate!!"

Thinking of this, Conan was shocked, and Xiaolan was even more stunned, feeling like she was listening to a science fiction novel.

"How is it impossible? You always thought that the poison developed by the black organization is used to kill people, and shrinking is its side effect. Why don't you think about it the other way around? In fact, the drug developed by the black organization may itself be

It is designed to restore youth, and killing people is its side effect - but because the side effects are too great, it cannot be marketed. This kind of thing is actually normal in the field of drug research and development."

"But that premise is that Renya Karasuma is still alive, and half a century has passed since his death!"

"In 1967, a wealthy man named James Bedford had terminal lung cancer that was incurable. So he decided to cryogenically freeze himself, hoping that one day in the future medical technology would be advanced enough to cure him.

After recovering from lung cancer and continuing to live, this is the first person in the world to receive cryonics treatment."

Fang Zheng said silently.

"Furthermore, the idea of ​​cryopreservation of life has been discussed in academic circles a century ago. Considering that Renya Karasuma is a rich man, it is natural for him to want to live forever and stay young. People are rich and willful.

I want to build it, can you handle it?"

"………………"

Facing Fang Zheng's inquiry, Conan was speechless.

He really can't care less!

"So what you are saying is that in order to rejuvenate himself, Renye Karasuma secretly established a black organization to study the drug and announced his suspended animation to the outside world. In addition to researching drugs, the black organization also penetrated into various fields.

Is it to allow Karasuma Renya to return to the peak of power after her 'resurrection'?"

"Probably."

Fang Zheng nodded silently, but he still had something he didn't tell Conan. According to what Xiao Ai and Ming Mei told him, their parents also studied this drug, but in the end the rebel organization burned all the drugs.

Research data. Fang Zheng suspected that they might have learned the truth and knew that his medicine was for Karasuma Renye, so he destroyed it all.

Moreover, since it is a drug, it must be tested before it can be used. Belmode may be a victim of this drug, and the real function of APTX4869 should actually be to restore people to their youth and then stay young forever. This is right

It can also be seen from Belmod that she looks no more than thirty years old. In fact, according to Founder's investigation, she is probably sixty or seventy years old.

In other words, if Conan, Xiao Ai and Belmod are taking the same drug, then they each embody the two characteristics of the drug.

One is to rejuvenate, the other is to stay young forever.

However, this drug is obviously not stable enough. Considering Belmod's age, Xiaoai and Mingmei were not born when she took the drug, so she should be taking the drug studied by their parents. Although this drug reflects the

It has the characteristics of "maintaining", but it does not reflect the characteristics of "restoring youth".

After that, Mingmei and Xiao Ai's parents probably actually developed the elixir of life, but after learning that the drug was intended for the evil leader of the black organization, they naturally destroyed it.

Xiao Ai said that the medicine she developed was based on some of the remaining information from her parents, so Fang Zheng also had an inference.

That is, Xiao Ai's parents made two kinds of medicines back then, one was the incomplete form of medicine A, and the other was the complete form of medicine B.

Later, drug A was given to Belmode - this is not surprising. You can't take advantage of the enemy with this drug. Like in American comics, you find a passerby to do the experiment, and then create a superhero who will come back to you.

Trouble, anyone with a normal IQ would reject such a stupid thing.

It is very likely that Bermod was trusted by Renya Karasuma, so it was natural for him to "test the poison" as a confidant.

Unfortunately, the effect of drug A was not complete, so the Miyano couple made a complete version of drug B. However, after that, in order to prevent Renye Karasuma from resurrecting, they destroyed drug B and the information. And Xiao Ai got

The residual data of her parents is probably the part of the complete "B" drug, so the APTX4869 she made has the effect of "rejuvenating".

Otherwise, there is no way to explain why Belmod just did not grow old, while Xiao Ai and Conan became smaller.

"So what do we do now?"

"I don't care what this owner wants to do, but there are probably some clues hidden in this annex. If we can find these clues, we may be able to find Karasuma Renya's hiding place."

Having said this, Fang Zheng reached out and patted Conan on the shoulder.
