Chapter 898: It's not fun
Due to lack of her own special skills, Aiko Gojo could only play tennis with Murasakibara Atsushi for a while using simple tennis techniques.
"It doesn't seem that difficult." Murasakibara Atsushi felt that playing tennis was quite easy.
"Because I don't know how to play serious tennis." Just as Gojo Aiko was about to introduce to Murasakibara Atsushi the magical skills they hoped the players in the club would learn, her cell phone rang.
"Brother Yanji?" Gojo Aiko answered the phone puzzledly. It was really rare for someone to call her at this time.
"Aiko, I'm sorry, could you please spend the Spring Festival by yourself this year?" Hagiwara Kenji supported his forehead with a helpless look on his face.
"I'm celebrating the holiday by myself?" Gojo Aiko didn't care about this kind of thing at all, but why did she suddenly say that? Did something happen?
"Is the work going badly?"
Hagiwara Kenji sighed, "Alas, there are people we didn't expect who know that Kudo Shinichi was once fed the drug. They are now beginning to question Kudo Shinichi's existence, thinking that if Kudo Shinichi is still alive, it means that the drug may have been successful. Once this matter is exposed, it will cause a strong storm worldwide."
After all, rejuvenation is really attractive to those who are rich and powerful.
Even if the mortality rate of APTX4869 is extremely high, they probably won't care, because they will definitely continue to find people to carry out the experiment until they develop a usable anti-aging drug.
Originally, Conan and Haibara Ai were planning to start experimenting with the antidote right away, but this incident happened and everyone was in a panic.
After all, only Furuya Rei claimed to have seen Kudo Shinichi, and then they asked Kaito Kid to pretend to be Kudo Shinichi and hang around, but these could not refute the evidence that Kudo Shinichi had been rejuvenated, because the other party also noticed Conan.
Although there is Kaito Kid, Kudo Shinichi and Conan can exist at the same time, but what about the future? Then the other party keeps staring at Kudo Shinichi and Conan, which makes it difficult to deal with this matter.
"Well... that can only prove that Kudo Shinichi didn't actually take APTX4869 to refute them." Gojo Aiko thought for a while, "Is there a possibility that Gin is actually an undercover agent?"
Kenji Hagiwara was stunned for a moment before he realized what Gojo Aiko meant.
Anyway, now Gin is in their hands, so they can say whatever they want. Then they can claim that Gin is actually an undercover agent, so he didn't feed APTX4869 to Kudo Shinichi at all, but the two of them reached a consensus and acted together. Kudo Shinichi has since turned to secretly assisting the police in investigating the Black Organization.
They can even let Kaito Kid pretend to be Gin. As long as the antidote is developed, the real Kudo Shinichi and "Gin" will be there, and then there will be both witnesses and evidence.
"As expected of the famous detective Aiko!" Hagiwara Kenji hung up the phone happily and went to find Furuya Rei.
Morobushi Kagemitsu sighed silently beside him. In fact, the current situation was far more critical than what Hagiwara Kenji and Gojo Aiko said.
Furuya Rei, Akai Shuichi and Kudo Yusaku have been assassinated several times in succession, as have the various forces supporting them. The sanatorium almost exploded, and the remaining Black Organization forces around the world were desperate and began to attack indiscriminately. So, with so many people, they could have randomly selected a few people to go back to accompany Gojo Aiko, but they really couldn't spare anyone.
Uzumaki Kushina and the others who were originally traveling were hired as temporary workers to help out.
These people cannot help openly because their identities are "problematic".
So now they are dividing the work and cooperating with each other.
They locked up all the captured Black Organization members in the sanatorium, which was guarded by Kenji Hagiwara and others.
Everyone here is Kenji Hagiwara's own people, so there is no need to worry about being discovered even if they use some extraordinary means.
Yusaku Kudo is still in the sanatorium, but his main responsibility is still to direct the work of all parties. The reason why he is in the sanatorium is to cover up Kenji Hagiwara and others, so that outsiders will think that the sanatorium is mainly staffed by Yusaku Kudo and some public security police.
Then there would be a steady stream of remnants of the Black Organization trying to break into the Black Organization and jailbreak, and naturally they all failed and were arrested.
All the research, including that of Haibara Ai, is now being conducted in the sanatorium because it is the safest place right now.
On the other side, Gojo Aiko jumped back to the court. Murasakibara Atsushi had already started playing tennis with others. He seemed to have discovered that these guys' tennis skills were amazing.
"Gojo-chan, tennis is really dangerous." Murasakibara Atsushi pointed at the small hole in the floor and started to complain openly.
Aiko Gojo looked at the small hole on the floor that had just been laid and wiped clean, then looked up at the other people standing nearby and watching.
In an instant, everyone turned their heads at the same time.
"Who of you did this?" Gojo Aiko smiled kindly. "Didn't we say that you can't play this kind of ball on Court No. 1 and damage the court?"
There are many different courts in their gymnasium. Courts 1, 2 and 3 are ordinary indoor tennis courts. Once the floor is damaged, it is difficult to repair it, and it may leave marks after repair, which will make the tennis court look shabby.
There is also a No. 18 court, which is made entirely of grass and red clay, making it easier to repair.
Therefore, the rules of their club do not allow the use of tennis balls that will tear the court into pieces on ordinary courts.
If this is violated, the player will be punished by having to repair the court, clean the court, and serve as a "caddy" to pick up balls.
"Haha, he did it!" Shuji Tanejima, who was always looking for trouble, pointed at Oni Jujiro and said with glee.
Kijujiro scratched his head in embarrassment. He didn't use much force, but who knew that he would break the floor!
"Caddy No. 1 is about to go online~" Someone shouted from the crowd, and the whole audience burst into laughter.
When everyone is training, they pick up the balls for each other, or the manager helps pick up the balls. Now, Keigo Atobe has sponsored a ball-picking robot that can automatically identify tennis balls, pick them up and put them back into the ball basket like a sweeping robot.
So now there is no need for anyone to pick up the balls, and picking up the balls has become a punishment.
When others are playing tennis, you can only stand by and watch, and you have to pick up the balls. It is really uncomfortable.
The most important thing is that there will definitely be people who will take the opportunity to watch him have fun.
Oni Jujiro became the first player to commit a crime since the establishment of Hope Club. He went to the side to continue watching the game in shame.
The manager’s excitement is not interesting, so I’d better not join in the fun!
