Stay away from Conan

"Don't worry, it's just an organizational researcher. I can handle it more than enough."

Outside the door, Xiao Ai heard Gao Yuan's voice not far behind the door and replied calmly:

"I ran out while Blackbeard was sleeping."

"So, do you have something urgent to tell me?"

Hearing that Xiao Ai ran out at this moment, he thought Xiao Ai had something urgent to say, so Gao Yuan asked hurriedly.

"Indeed...there is something I have to tell you..."

In this regard, hearing Xiao Ai's tone of voice was a little low, which made Gao Yuan a little worried for a moment——

"I actually searched Blackbeard's luggage just now while he was sleeping. I wanted to see if I could find any specific medicine related to the virus he developed, or immunoglobulin antibodies that directly target the virus. ...No matter what happens, we can find a virus vaccine that Blackbeard must have developed..."

Xiao Ai's tone became even lower, and she continued with a sense of sadness:

"Although the virus developed by Blackbeard does not have a long enough incubation period like rabies virus, so that even if the vaccine is injected after infection, there is still enough time for the body's immune system to produce antibodies to respond to the virus before the virus attacks. But as long as there is still some hope, I don’t want to see a child like me die at the hands of the organization..."

Speaking of this, Xiao Ai paused, as if she was sorry. Xiao Ai hesitated for a while before continuing:

"But, there is nothing...so, Gao Yuan..."

"No……"

After listening to Xiao Ai's words, Gao Yuan sighed silently, forced himself to cheer up, and said to Xiao Ai:

"You don't need to blame yourself... Since the organization has decided to use the entire ship as a testing ground to test the power of the virus, they will not easily bring specific drugs against the virus on board. And since this virus still needs Experiment, there is no telling whether there is any specific medicine or targeted immunoglobulin...

"As for the vaccine, it's absolutely too late now...because Ava's virus has already struck!"

"What!"

Hearing this, Xiao Ai was surprised:

"How is that possible? I thought Blackbeard should at least let Ava wait until tomorrow's handshake meeting..."

As he said this, Xiao Ai was suddenly shocked:

"Is it possible that he didn't calculate the dosage when using this virus on children?"

"Perhaps, he has never conducted experiments on children before, so he does not have accurate data..."

In this regard, Gao Yuan imagined this:

"Or maybe everyone's physique is different..."

After saying that, Gao Yuan looked very serious and replied:

"But no matter what, now that the virus has attacked Ava, we have no other options... Now, we can only place our hope on the slim chance of survival. It depends on whether she can survive it. Already..."

Hearing this, Xiao Ai outside the door was silent for a long time, and then she said quietly with some sadness:

"I'm sorry...this kind of thing can only be faced by you alone..."

"It's okay, Haiyuan..."

After calming down, Gao Yuan said in as calm a tone as possible:

"This is something we have to face sooner or later. I can bear it alone... Go back quickly and act on this passenger ship under Ava's identity. If someone discovers it, it will cause trouble!"

After saying this, Xiao Ai outside the door was silent for a moment, and then softly said "Hmm". Then, Gao Yuan no longer heard Xiao Ai's voice outside the door.

So, with a long sigh of relief and a more complicated mood, Gao Yuan turned around and slowly walked towards the bed——

Although he had been prepared, Gao Yuan felt very uncomfortable because Xiao Ai's words further confirmed that Ava could really survive the outbreak of the virus on her own.

Moreover, if Ava really can't resist it, what should she do next?

The girl who died due to a deadly virus seemed to have no choice but to choose the cruelest way to deal with her funeral——

Let this world-famous child star disappear on this luxury liner!

Ending the entire incident with such an unresolved case seems to be the only option.

Thinking of this, Gao Yuan didn't know how to face the child——

"Just now...who was that? I seemed to hear a voice that sounded like 'me'?"

At this moment, when Gao Yuan walked back to the bed, Ava, who had already opened her eyes, forced a smile on her face and asked Gao Yuan.

In this regard, looking at the pure smile of the girl who was tortured by the illness, Gao Yuan's heart felt as if something had grabbed it hard and felt deep pain——

"That...is a girl who looks very much like you. She is now pretending to be you outside to deceive the bad guys who want to harm you."

Trying his best to remain calm, Gao Yuan explained.

"Like...me?"

A little surprised, Ava asked, but then continued to smile:

"Then, she must be a good partner of big brother, right? If she has a gentle big brother by her side, she must be very happy..."

As she said this, Ava seemed to think of her unexpected parents. After losing the protection of her parents, she had been facing the group of black guys who kept appearing around her and wanted to join them——

"But now, my eldest brother is by my side, and I feel so happy!"

At this moment, Ava seemed to have given up hope for her own destiny. She smiled happily and felt the last warmth in her life——

So, looking at this girl who was so calm in the end even after encountering such a fate, Gao Yuan silently held my hand with hers again, hoping to accompany her through this journey.

But I don’t know if a miracle will happen...

…

The next day, in the lobby of the cruise ship, the preview of Ava Porter's new movie was held as scheduled. Among the students from Class B of Didan Primary School who were invited to attend, when Guangyan noticed that Xiao Ai did not show up, After that, everyone in the Young Detective Team immediately suggested looking for Xiao Ai.

However, such behavior was immediately stopped by Conan and Dr. Ali who were following them.

Then Conan and Dr. A Li used the excuse that "Xiao Ai is not feeling well". As a result, Mitsuhiko couldn't help but feel unexpectedly disappointed and said:

"What! Haibara-san is not feeling well, so he won't come to participate! This is such a pity..."

"This... is something that can't be helped..."

In this regard, Dr. Ali couldn't help but say.

"Yes. The preview screening is about to start now, let's watch the movie first!"

Conan also said nervously, hoping that the attraction of Ava Potter's new movie could divert the attention of the children in front of him——

After all, no one is allowed to get close to the room where Gao Yuan and Xiao Ai live. That place is too dangerous!

At the same time, these children must not be aware of the fact that Xiao Ai is actually pretending to be Ava on the stage!

"Oh well……"

So, in the end, the three members of the Young Detective Team were impressed by the charm of Ava's new movie, and chose to stay and watch the movie, and then——

The three of them were completely attracted by the movie!

After the movie ended, the three of them were still immersed in the plot of the movie.

Afterwards, the handshake meeting with "Ava Potter herself" began. The three of them seemed to have forgotten about Xiao Ai, and hurriedly stepped forward to queue up. They were very excited and prepared to have a face-to-face meeting with Ava Potter herself. Shake hands.

In this regard, Blackbeard, who appeared at the venue as a manager, was silently looking forward to what would happen next...
