Traveling back thirty years to Conan, intercepting Princess Eri

Chapter 250 Professor Agasa and the Miyano Couple

"How did he do that?" Reiko stared wide-eyed at the machine that was making the sound, her face full of amazement.

"By changing the frequency of the input sound, you can change the timbre and pitch," Lin Xiuyi explained, while thoughtfully watching the round-faced, chubby young man on the stage.

"Wasn't that amazing, kids?"

The chubby young man proudly raised his chin on the stage, gently stroking the smooth surface of the machine.
"There's something even more amazing, which I'll show you now, but we'll need two audience members to come up on stage."

As he spoke, the chubby young man's gaze swept across the crowd, finally settling on Lin Xiuyi and his sister.

Thinking of the little girl's disdain for the science exhibition, the chubby young man's lips curled up slightly, and he extended an invitation to the brother and sister without hesitation.

Reiko had already been intrigued by the machine that could change voices, and upon hearing the invitation, she immediately perked up: "Onii-chan, let's go up quickly!"

Lin Xiu smiled and let her sister pull her onto the exhibition stand.

"So, little sister, isn't my invention amazing?" The chubby young man deliberately bent down and leaned closer to Lingzi, asking, "Were you surprised?"

“A little bit,” Reiko nodded. “Aren’t there even more powerful ones, Uncle?”

"I told you not to call me 'uncle'," the chubby young man muttered aggrievedly, then gestured for Lingzi to come forward, "Come on, try saying something to this place."

My little cousin bit her lip and thought for a moment, then suddenly stood on tiptoe and leaned closer to the microphone: "Onii-chan, I love you the most!"

"Uh," Lin Xiuyi awkwardly raised his hand and scratched his cheek, which elicited a burst of good-natured laughter from the audience.

"I wish I could have a younger sister who likes me," the chubby young man sighed enviously, then adjusted the machine.

With a soft "beep," Lingzi's words were amplified several times and replayed, echoing throughout the exhibition hall.

"It's just recording sound, it's not that impressive, is it?" Reiko pouted, her face full of disappointment.

You'll find out soon enough.

The chubby young man winked mysteriously, then picked up the microphone beside him and said in a low voice,

"I'm sure Onii-chan would love such a cute little sister like me, right?"

His voice came from the loudspeaker next to him, and it turned out to be Lingzi's clear and melodious voice, with even the tone being exactly the same.

"Wow, that's amazing!" Reiko exclaimed, covering her mouth in surprise, her eyes wide open.

A chorus of exclamations rose from the audience, and several children even jumped up excitedly.

Phonograph technology is not unusual, but the fat young man's invention, which can directly convert the timbre into the voice of a specific person while speaking, is amazing.

Lin Xiuyi had seen similar technology in his previous life, so he was not as surprised as the others.

However, the inventions the chubby young man displayed, along with his distinctive round face and thick eyebrows, completely convinced Lin Xiuyi of his identity.

Professor Agasa, the genius inventor in the Conan world, the wise assistant behind Conan, and the creator of Kogoro Mouri's suffering.
"Sir, would you like to give it a try?" the young Professor Agasa invited warmly, his round face beaming with a friendly smile.

Lin Xiuyi was lost in thought and momentarily lost in thought.

"Sorry, Onii-chan sometimes thinks like this," Reiko smiled apologetically, then gently nudged her brother's arm. "Onii-chan, it's your turn."

Coming to his senses, Lin Xiuyi approached the prototype of the Conan voice changer and casually remarked, "The weather is really nice today."

Dr. Agasa then pressed the button and spoke in Hayashi Hideichi's gentle voice, eliciting another gasp from the audience.

Compared to other simple experiments at the science fair, Dr. Agasa's inventions were clearly more popular with the children.

After a brief demonstration, many children lined up, eager to experience how to speak in someone else's voice.

Instead of disturbing the busy Professor Agasa, Lin Xiuyi held Reiko's hand and continued to stroll around the science museum.

The brother and sister soon arrived at the biological science exhibition area, where several microscopes were set up and many children were queuing up to observe cells under the guidance of the staff.

Reiko showed great interest in this, and she tugged at Lin Xiuyi's sleeve, eagerly joining the queue.

"I wonder if I'll be able to see the baby's birth," the little cousin suddenly whispered in her brother's ear.

"Huh?" Lin Xiu was stunned for a moment, not quite understanding.

That's the one.

A faint blush rose to the girl's cheeks, and she lowered her voice even further.

"When I was reading a book before, it explained how many tadpoles become babies through competition."

Lin Xiu felt a wave of embarrassment wash over him. He instinctively scratched his head, trying to hide his awkwardness. Having a precocious younger sister was truly a headache.

Just as he was struggling with how to answer this embarrassing question, a gentle female voice suddenly sounded beside him: "The regular optical microscopes here can see the contact between sperm and egg, but if you want to see further into the egg, you will need a more advanced microscope."

Someone actually answered seriously? Lin Xiuyi's lips twitched involuntarily.

He turned his head in the direction of the voice, and saw a young woman with light blonde shoulder-length hair, dark green eyes, glasses, and a white lab coat, exuding elegance.

After being stared at by Lin Xiuyi, the blonde woman realized what kind of question she had just answered. Her fair cheeks flushed red, and she awkwardly pushed up her glasses.

"Big sister knows so much,"

Reiko, ever the perceptive one, changed the subject, tilting her head up and asking curiously.

"Big sister, is this what you study?"

She turned her head and looked at the sign for the exhibition area.

"Biological sciences?"

“I did do some research on this before,” the blonde woman smiled slightly, a complex emotion flashing in her eyes. “Now, I’m a doctor.” “A doctor?” Reiko’s eyes lit up. “Big sister, are babies really that ugly when they’re first born?”

“I wouldn’t say it’s ugly,” the blonde woman chuckled at the question. “It’s just that because the baby’s skin is soaked in amniotic fluid for a long time, it will become a little wrinkled, just like when you take a bath, if you take a bath for too long, your palms will also become wrinkled.”

“I see,” Reiko nodded as if she understood. “I thought that my baby with my brother would be very cute, even if it was just born.”

"Huh?" The blonde woman's eyes widened in surprise, her gaze shifting back and forth between Lin Xiuyi and Lingzi, her face practically screaming "pervert."

Feeling the strange gaze, Lin Xiuyi felt extremely uncomfortable and quickly explained, "We're not blood siblings, we're cousins. No, we're not even cousins ​​yet."

Seeing his flustered state, the blonde woman suddenly burst out laughing: "You don't need to explain. I saw you guys at Professor Agasa's place just now."

At this point, she winked mischievously.
"There's nothing wrong with sibling relationships; in Japan, cousins ​​can get married anyway."

Uh, this is really hard to explain. Lin Xiuyi covered his face in frustration, and through his fingers he saw Lingzi making a smug face at him.

"Does your older sister have a baby yet?" Reiko continued to ask curiously.

"Yes, it's a girl, she's three years old now."

Mentioning her daughter, the blonde woman's face immediately radiated maternal warmth, and her dark green eyes filled with tenderness.

"That's a very cute child."

“Big sister is so beautiful, your daughter will definitely grow up to be a great beauty,” Lingzi said sincerely.

Hearing someone praise her daughter, the woman happily bent down and gently touched Lingzi's cheek: "If Mingmei could hear your blessing, little sister, she would be very happy too."

Just then, a man also wearing a white coat came down the stairs not far away. He had a broad face, a neatly trimmed beard, and round-framed glasses.

Seeing the man come downstairs, the blonde woman smiled and ruffled Lingzi's hair: "Little sister, your wish will definitely come true in the future."

After saying that, she turned and walked towards the bespectacled young man: "So, Atsushi, are they willing to help you find someone to fund your research?"

The bespectacled young man sighed, his shoulders slumped, and a bitter smile appeared on his face.

Seeing this, the blonde woman immediately understood the outcome. She gently took her husband's arm and softly comforted him, "Don't be discouraged, Atsushi. There will definitely be someone who can see the value in your research."

“But as it stands, the only one willing to fund me is the Karasuma Group,” the bespectacled young man said with a helpless expression. “But I really don’t like their style. Your sister also said that the Karasuma Group is unreliable.”

"If you don't like Karasuma Group, then just keep looking for another company willing to fund it. We're still young, we have plenty of time."

The woman chuckled softly, trying to ease her husband's gloom.
"Although today's science exhibition is aimed at children, there are still many interesting things. I wish I had brought Mingmei with me."

"That child is only three years old. Even if he comes, what can he understand?" The bespectacled young man was infected by his wife's optimism, and the gloom on his face dissipated slightly, revealing a gentle smile.

The couple walked towards the other end of the science and technology museum while talking.

Lin Xiuyi stared at the two figures as they walked away, motionless, as if petrified.

He hadn't reacted much when he first heard that the blonde woman's daughter was named Akemi, since there are many girls named Akemi in Japan.

But then, after hearing the bespectacled youth's name was Atsushi and that he mentioned the Karasuma Group, if Lin Xiuyi still didn't understand the identities of the two, wouldn't all those thousands of episodes of Detective Conan in his previous life have been for nothing?

Elena Miyano and Atsushi Miyano are two key characters who run through the Conan storyline.

Without their "silver bullet" research, and without their youngest daughter, Shiho Miyano, there would be no APTX4869, the drug that turned Shinichi Kudo into an elementary school student.

No wonder Sharon was at the science museum.
The image of the blonde witch flashed through Lin Xiuyi's mind. At this time, was she here to recruit the Miyano couple for the Karasuma Group?

Lin Xiu's mind raced, and his gaze was naturally fixed on the Miyano couple. Seeing this, Lingzi thought her brother was lusting after Miyano Elena because of her beauty!
The little girl immediately stomped her foot in anger. They had clearly agreed to come out and play together, but first it was the foreign female teacher, and now she's set her sights on the foreign older sister she just met!

"Onii-chan!"

Lingzi raised her leg and stomped hard on Lin Xiuyi's foot. Only when she saw her brother's pained expression did she feel slightly relieved.

"Didn't you hear what I just said to that older woman? She's already married, and that man is her husband. They have a daughter!"

Lin Xiuyi was intently thinking about how to prevent the Miyano couple from joining the Karasuma Group. If the birth of the "silver bullet" could be prevented from the source, there might not be so many tragedies and troubles in the future.

When asked about his sister's marriage, he replied absentmindedly, "What does her marriage have to do with me?"

These words were like a bomb, causing Reiko's voice to rise eight octaves in surprise: "Onii-chan, are you even eyeing married women?"

The clear, childlike voice was particularly jarring in the quiet exhibition hall, and the explosive content of the words immediately attracted countless eyes to Lin Xiuyi.

Some were curious, some were disdainful, and many married women who brought their children to visit actually showed expressions of attraction after seeing Lin Xiuyi's handsome appearance.

Soon, several stylish young mothers approached the brother and sister intentionally or unintentionally. They were fixing their hair or adjusting their skirts, which conveniently blocked Lin Xiuyi's view of Miyano Elena.

Lin Xiuyi suddenly came to her senses and was about to take a step to chase after them when she found that she had been surrounded by young mothers with good figures.

The various perfumes they wore blended together, creating a sweet and cloying scent.

What's even more frightening is that many women openly flirt with him, and one bold woman even deliberately bends down to adjust her shoelaces in front of him, revealing her alluring curves.

Lin Xiuyi, covered in sweat, looked around and asked, "What's going on?"

"Hmph, stop pretending to be confused," Lingzi said, crossing her arms and puffing out her cheeks in anger. "These were all specially gathered here after I heard you have a thing for married women."

"Who likes married women?" Lin Xiuyi retorted, both amused and exasperated. He felt a throbbing pain in his temples. "I'm not Cao Cao."

"If you don't like married women, why were you staring at that blonde woman just now?" Reiko pressed on relentlessly.

“I’ve heard of those two names,” Lin Xiuyi explained simply. “Atsushi Miyano and Elena Miyano. They’re a very famous couple in the scientific community. I was just thinking about some rumors about them, which is why I’ve been staring at them.”

Reiko blinked, carefully recalling the scene from earlier. Indeed, neither the blonde woman nor her husband had mentioned their surnames. Could it be that Onii-chan really wasn't lying?
“Come on, let’s go find them,” Lin Xiuyi said, taking his sister’s hand and starting to squeeze out of the crowd of enthusiastic married women…
