Chapter 283: The Past of Grace Ahara
"Did you remember something?" Conan looked at Yin Jiu and fell into silence, then he became more alert.
"Well, I remember some things." Yin Jiu thought for a while and picked out some things to say. "After Grace was treated in the Anran Nursing Home for a period of time, she returned to her hometown with her parents. This child is a British citizen like me, so I always thought she would be in the UK."
"Before I met her, I had never expected to see her in Japan, and her parents hadn't come to see her for such a long time, which was unusual."
"I wonder if it's possible that she fainted at the door of the doctor's house that day, and she was actually hiding from some bad guys, but Professor Agasa and I happened to pass by and took her away."
"The criminal gang that had not been able to find Grace mistakenly believed that Grace Ahara had been killed. This would also explain why Naoko Sawada was so sure that Grace Ahara was dead."
Yin Jiu's tone of analysis was calm, and there was no sign of lying on his face. At the end, the boy seemed relieved. "I think it was the right choice for Dr. Agasa to rename Grace Ehara."
Conan kept staring at Yin Jiu's face. He had suspected the possibility that Yin Jiu was pretending, but what Yin Jiu said did make sense.
The premise is that Yin Jiu really doesn’t know that Huihara Ai is Shirley, not Grace Ahara herself.
Of course Yin Jiu could guess Conan's doubts. After all, he and the doctor were the only two people who knew that Haibara Ai was Sherry.
But Yin Jiu was more inclined to pin Shirley down as Grace Ahara. It was the original owner who had feelings for Grace Ahara, and he only wanted to maximize his benefits.
The two were chatting when Dr. Agasa suddenly came in with an anxious look on his face.
"What's wrong, Doctor?" Yin Jiu sensed the emotional point on Dr. Agasa and turned his gaze away.
"That Beiyuanchuan... is the victim that Xiaojiu met today. That person was killed in the hospital and all his organs were taken away."
"What?" Conan's eyes widened in shock.
"Well, not only that, the doctor named Sawada Naoko is also missing, and the police are still searching for her..." At this point, Dr. Agasa patted his chest with lingering fear, "The police now speculate that this incident is likely to be a gang crime, let me... uh, let me tell Yin Jiu to be careful recently."
"They should have informed Brother Tou first and found out that I was on your side." After hearing what Dr. Agasa said, Yin Jiu nodded to show that he understood.
Then Yin Jiu frowned again. It was obvious that the other party's initial target was him. Although he was not so successful, it was not to the point of total loss. Why was he in such a hurry to expose himself?
Yin Jiu originally thought that this was a trick of Rum, but such a rough and unsustainable method didn't seem to be the case?
"Could it be someone that Yin Shuli offended at Anran Sanatorium?" Conan immediately thought of the Black Organization. Anran Sanatorium was involved, and Yin Jiu was a second-generation member of the organization. There might be some pervert who had a conflict with Yin Shuli and took revenge on Yin Jiu.
"It's hard to say," Yin Jiu shook his head. "In terms of the staff composition of Anran Sanatorium, whether it's patients or doctors, Japanese are not the majority. If someone really wanted to do something bad to me because of my mother, they should have done it a few years ago when I was still in the United States."
Could it be because the Japanese Metropolitan Police Department is so lame?
Dr. Agasa, who was listening nearby, sensed something was wrong and hesitated to speak.
Yin Jiu didn't plan to continue chatting. Seeing that Toru Amuro's car had already parked outside the window, he straightened his clothes and stood up. "Xiao Ai doesn't plan to go home with me, so her safety during this period of time will be temporarily in your hands."
Yin Jiu arranged the task for the small sample and got into Toru Amuro's car.
After visiting Vermouth, Toru Amuro was thinking about Yin Jiu all the way.
If the Japanese top brass really want to take action against Yin Jiu, as a member of Group Zero, which side should he stand on?
Amuro Toru remained silent. From a professional perspective, as Zero he had to carry out everything without any personal feelings.
But... can he really be emotionless?
While Toru Amuro was having doubts in his heart, in a house somewhere in Tokyo, Bourbon's boss Rum was also having doubts in his heart.
"what happened?"
"Kitahara River is completely out of control," Curacao frowned, writing and drawing on the notebook, "and what's worse is that Sawada Naoko also shows signs of losing control. She has been taken back and is now locked in the gas chamber."
"It seems that Gryfiddi's influence on the test subjects is still very strong." Rum's fingers stroked the gem on the crutch, his eyes deep, "How long can the 'drug' in the warehouse last?"
"It's only enough to supply Naoko Sawada for three months. But if it has to be used for the daily expenses of our code members, then... then..." Curacao hesitated and didn't dare to look Rum in the eye.
"Find a way to get some from the research team!" Rum said gloomily, "Didn't they say they were researching new drugs? Let's start with Generic. We can't be short of drugs."
"yes..."
-
Shortly after Yin Jiu left Agasa's house, Conan received a call from his old father.
"Yin Jiu was framed," Conan immediately shared the good news with his parents, "That Kitahara Kawa was murdered tonight, and Sawada Naoko is missing. This shows that the Metropolitan Police Department's speculation was wrong from the beginning, and the so-called witnesses are also fictitious. Yin Jiu is not a suspect, but may very well become the victim of the next case."
"Really?" Kudo Yusaku could feel the excitement in Conan's voice, but after pausing for half a second, he chose to tell Conan the latest information, "But I called you to tell you about Grace Ahara."
"Grace Ahara?" Conan glanced at Huibara Ai's room and moved a few steps towards the hall. "What exactly is going on?"
"The only record we can find about Grace Ahara before she retired from the screen is her medical examination report."
"Well, Yin Jiu just told me that Grace did retire due to health reasons. So he didn't lie." Conan nodded, but when he thought about his old father calling him, he felt something was wrong and was subconsciously stunned. "Wait, do you mean that Grace has a terminal illness? Or that the situation was very critical at the time and she couldn't be successfully saved?"
"No, on the contrary, Grace Ahara has leukemia, and because it was discovered early and the patient is not very old, as long as the bone marrow is matched, there is a high chance of survival." Kudo Yusaku did not hide it, "Yin Jiu probably recommended Grace Ahara to the Anran Sanatorium so that she could get better treatment."
"Isn't this normal?" Conan couldn't understand why Kudo Yusaku spoke to him about this in such a heavy tone.
"What if Grace Elhara has type B RH negative blood?"
"You mean..." An arc flashed through Conan's mind, and the words "experimental base" and "bone marrow matching" overlapped.
"Yes, Yin Jiu was not the mastermind behind this case of dismembering corpses and stealing organs, but he may be an accomplice in several other organ trading transactions."
"Although it happened a long time ago, if those people in Anran Nursing Home hold him or Yin Shuli accountable, I'm afraid it will be difficult for Yin Jiu to escape unscathed."
