Chapter 372: Brain Cells That Never Update (Please Vote and Subscribe!!!)
"Where are we going now?"
The typhoon is raging and this is the last cold wave before summer.
As the wind subsided, vehicles began to appear on the street.
Walking on the deserted street, Miss Miyano looked up at the sky and asked:
"I can't go back home."
After such a big incident, if you still dare to go back to your apartment, wouldn't you be throwing yourself into a trap?
Gin will definitely send someone to track down Shirley's whereabouts
"There are monitors outside my house, so I can't go there."
Sakaki recalled a place where
safest.
"I'll take you somewhere."
With that said, Sakaki stopped a taxi and confirmed that the driver was not an old man.
The two spent a huge sum of 10,000 yuan to successfully change the driver's mind and change the route home from get off work to Mihua Town 2-chome.
After getting off the car
Miss Miyano looked at the familiar scenery around her and was a little surprised:
"here."
"Isn't it the Kudo Shin family?"
"That's right."
In front of you is a luxurious villa. Behind the fence, it has obviously been uninhabited for a long time.
but.
Sakaki Makoto's destination was not Kudo Residence.
He knocked on the door of Dr. Agasa's house next door to Kudo's residence.
Boom, boom, boom.
"Coming, coming."
Dr. Ari, wearing a white coat, opened the door and saw Sakaki Makoto and a strange woman. He blinked:
"Mr. Sakaki Makoto?"
There was a typhoon and heavy rain outside, when Sakaki suddenly came to the door.
No matter how you look at it, it's not normal.
"Dr. Agasa, this is my girlfriend, Miyano Shiho."
Out of courtesy, Sakaki introduced briefly:
"She just escaped from the black organization and is homeless. Can you let her stay here temporarily?"
"When I find a new house, I will take her there."
"ah!"
Dr. A Li clapped his hands and thought about it:
"She is the developer of APTX4869 that Shinichi told me!"
"Come in, come in, it's raining so hard outside, you'll catch a cold if you get wet."
Dr. Agasa, who is kind-hearted, will naturally not watch Sakaki and Makoto standing at the door, being devastated by the typhoon.
After inviting them into the house, Dr. Ali brought dry towels and hot coffee and turned on the heater.
The motor works, and the air conditioner soon sends out warm air, making the whole house as warm as spring.
Taking this opportunity, he also contacted Conan.
"Shinichi will be here in a moment."
Dr. Agasa sat on the sofa, looked at Miss Miyano who was wiping her hair and bowing her head in silence, and said:
"Mr. Sakaki Makoto, as far as I know."
"The APTX plan should be a top-secret matter in the black organization."
"Your girlfriend is the first person in charge. How did she escape?"
"I walked in and brought her out, it was that simple."
Sakaki Cheng didn't want to dwell too much on this matter. He turned to Miss Miyano and said:
"Give me the USB flash drive."
"Um."
A black USB flash drive was delivered to Sakaki Cheng, and Sakaki Cheng put it on the table:
"This USB flash drive contains the research data of the APTX project."
"real?"
Dr. A Li was shocked:
"With it, can we make an antidote?"
"no."
Miss Miyano shook her head:
"So far, I have done many experiments and found that the effects of APTX4869 are irreversible."
"It destroys cells in the human body, causing all cells in the bones, muscles, internal organs, and even hair, except the nervous system, to degenerate to the stage of childhood. It is a poison."
"And this poison."
After a pause, Miss Miyano sighed:
"It is destructive to the human body and the cells killed by it cannot be regenerated."
"That is to say."
As a well-known scientist, Dr. Ali can certainly understand what she said:
"This process is irreversible. What about the orderly reproductive division of cells?"
"No impact. Probably."
Even Miss Miyano, the developer of APTX4869, does not fully understand its efficacy.
Or rather
APTX4869 appeared by chance.
It is by no means an easy matter to find inevitable connections by chance.
This involves knowledge in multiple scientific fields.
"After all, cells have a lifespan."
Perhaps this is a common problem among scientists. When talking about APTX4869, Miss Miyano became interested:
"When you are young, cells divide quickly and die slowly, so the human body grows."
"As you age, the telomeres on your DNA will shorten after multiple divisions, and eventually age, resulting in the inability to divide, and eventually death."
"The emergence of APTX4869 reverses this process. It causes the fusion of multiple cells in the human body, increases DNA telomeres, and returns the human body to its infancy."
Um.
Sakaki put his hands on his knees and nodded seriously.
I don't know how serious it is.
The subject he specializes in is not biology, but...
I still have some understanding, which is better than ordinary people.
To put it more simply.
Not enough compared to the top, but more than enough than the bottom.
"If Shinichi wants to change back to his original body."
Dr. A Li frowned:
"Must the cells be allowed to divide again?"
"That's right."
Smiling slightly, Miss Miyano said:
"Cells all have memory. As long as the antidote can be made before the cells are completely renewed, there is a chance that the body will return to its original state."
"Just like heredity, parents will pass on their genes to their children, but not their memories."
"And this cycle will not be too long, at most."
"No more than seven years?"
Sakaki Makoto interrupted:
"I saw an article before that said the human body renews cells in seven years."
"An average of seven years, different organs in the human body have different cell renewal times."
Taking a sip of coffee, Miss Miyano said:
"The liver's renewal cycle is 5 months, the heart's renewal cycle is 20 years, the skin's renewal cycle is 28 days, and the bones' renewal cycle is 10 years."
"Brain and eye cells are never renewed, and one less will die."
"Oh!"
As if he had discovered a new continent, Sakaki Makoto's eyes lit up:
"That's why Kudo's head is so big!"
"Because his brain cells have not died, although his body has become smaller, his head is still the same!"
Conan, who had just pushed the door in, happened to hear this and staggered on the spot.
He was so angry that he almost fainted.
What's wrong with my big head?
What did I do to provoke you?
Do you have to mention it every day? !
"Shinichi!"
Dr. Agasa stood up, a little surprised:
"You came so quickly?"
"Don't mention it"
Conan took off his raincoat and complained:
"Uncle just received a commission today, and the location is nearby."
"The case was solved a long time ago, but who knew that a typhoon suddenly blew, so we had to wait here."
As he spoke, he glanced at Miyano Shiho and looked at her curiously:
"Are you the producer of APTX4869?"
"Oh, don't you think so?"
Miss Miyano smiled:
"Too young?"
"No, I was just thinking"
Conan glanced at Dr. Agasa's baldness:
"It must be very hard for a researcher"
"But your hair is very thick"
