Chapter 90 Xiao Ai: Yes, I am Tanigawa’s grandmother

"Tanigawa, where is Dr. Agasa?"

Conan searched the house with a puzzled look on his face.

"Dr. Agasa is back home."

Conan had a question mark on his face. Why didn't I see Dr. Agasa? Which house did Dr. Agasa go back to? Conan felt confused. This should be Dr. Agasa's house, right?
"Oh, Tanigawa, I met someone from the organization at the Haido Hotel. The chairman of the car company, Kenzo Masuyama, is a member of the organization codenamed Pisk."

"Really?" Tanigawa looked shocked.

Ai couldn't help laughing while watching Tanigawa's performance. Poor Conan was played around by Tanigawa.

"besides."

"No more." Xiao Ai glanced at Conan, walked to Conan and whispered, "If you still want me to help you research the antidote, shut up now."

"Brother, I'm hungry and want to eat." Xiao Ai said softly while holding Tanigawa's hand.

"Okay, I'll go cook for you. Conan, please stay a while and eat together."

Tanigawa turned and walked into the kitchen.

Conan watched how Xiao Ai was talking to Tanigawa in a pretentious way and gritted his teeth. This woman was too good at acting, poor Tanigawa was being played around by her.

As soon as Tanigawa left, Ai looked at Conan with a cold face.

"I said, I will explain my identity to Tanigawa myself. If you want to rely on me to get the antidote, then watch your mouth."

"Then what is your purpose in lurking around Tanigawa? Do you think I will let you hurt Tanigawa just for the antidote?" Conan looked at Ai with a bad face.

Xiao Ai had a blank expression on her face. What did they mean that she had been lurking around Tanigawa? It was obvious that she was kidnapped by Tanigawa.

"Actually, on the day I turned into a child and escaped from the organization, I passed out on the street, and it was Tanigawa who picked me up and brought me home. And I will never hurt Tanigawa, so you can rest assured."

Conan's expression suddenly became strange, "So, because Tanigawa picked you up and brought you home, you have a special feeling for Tanigawa."

Conan shook his head. Damn love comics. Why would I have such a weird idea?

Xiao Ai's face was filled with black lines. Are you in love?

"Don't you think I look a lot like Tanigawa?" Ai said with a sense of evilness.

"Do you look alike?" Conan looked at Ai, and recalled Tanigawa's appearance. You two don't look alike either, right?
"Actually, I am Tanigawa's grandmother." Ai's face was calm.

"What!?"

Conan stepped back in disbelief, and the sound of porcelain bowls breaking was heard in the kitchen.

"You're kidding, right?"

"Of course not." Ai's expression was serious.

"I'm actually over 80 years old. Why do you think Tanigawa has been letting me live in his house? Of course, it's because I look a lot like Tanigawa, and he has a familiar and intimate feeling."

Conan's expression was strange, as if he didn't want to believe it, but also seemed to believe it a little.

If she had taken that kind of medicine, there was a high probability that the person in front of her was an old lady.

She said that she was the person responsible for developing the drug, and that to be able to take on such an important task, she must be a highly respected person with deep qualifications.

"Are you really over eighty years old? Or are you Tanigawa's grandmother?" Conan asked curiously.

"Of course." Xiao Ai looked calm.

Could it be that this stupid detective really believed it?

"I faked my death outside, but actually went to the organization to work as a researcher."

Conan touched his forehead and thought, and believed what Ai said about 30%. He knew the magic of that kind of medicine, and it was not impossible to turn an eighty-year-old lady into a child.

"What's your name?" Conan asked.

"Chiyoko Tanigawa." Ai lied without thinking.

"Actually, you don't have to worry that I will hurt Tanigawa, because I don't have the ability to hurt Tanigawa." Conan nodded, agreeing with what Ai said.

Threat of force? Tanigawa could eat Haibara alive.

Drugged? Tanigawa seemed to have the legendary anti-drug physique, and Tanigawa often used anesthetic needles to tickle.

Emotional harm? This is useless to Tanigawa. Tanigawa is the kind of person who will get your heart even if he can't get it, and will force you to give up your heart.

Conan felt that he should think calmly. The amount of information he received today was too much, and even as smart as he was, he couldn't digest it all at once.

If what Haibara said was true, he was Tanigawa's good brother, and he and Tanigawa's grandmother were classmates, how should this relationship be explained?

"It's time to eat." Tanigawa came out with the meal.

"Tanigawa."

Conan tugged at Tanigawa's sleeve while carrying Ai on his back, "Be careful, Haibara."

"What are you being careful about?" Tanigawa carelessly rubbed Ai's head. Although Ai looked unhappy, she was still docile and didn't get angry.

"Kudo-san, you're not the only one who will complain to your parents." Ai looked at Conan with malice.

Conan gritted his teeth. Is she threatening me?
I didn't expect that a former member of a criminal organization would threaten people like this. It really broadened my horizons.

"Okay, stop arguing and eat first."

With Tanigawa's help, Conan calmed down temporarily and stared at Ai while she ate a piece of broccoli and scrambled eggs.

"Ugh~"

In the end, Conan left by holding on to the wall.

"Conan is so abominable. He had to vomit at the dinner table because his stomach was uncomfortable, and now you, Ai, have lost your appetite." Tanigawa grumbled in dissatisfaction.

Xiao Ai gave Tanigawa a blank look.

First of all, Conan's stomach felt uncomfortable because he ate the food you cooked.

Secondly, my loss of appetite wasn’t due to Conan vomiting.

"Ai, is it true that being my mother no longer satisfies you?" Tanigawa suddenly said.

Xiao Ai's expression froze.

"Chiyoko Tanigawa sounds much better than my name 'Tanigawa Loli'."

"Absolut, this code name also suits you." Ai looked at Tanigawa without showing any weakness.

"Pure, simple, perfect." None of them.

"Thank you for the compliment." Tanigawa shamelessly accepted Xiao Ai's 'compliment.'

Tanigawa moved closer to Xiao Ai's face and said, "In fact, Absolut Vodka also represents diversity. Do you want to taste my various flavors?"

Xiao Ai reached out and pushed Tanigawa away without changing her expression.

This pervert, after he revealed his true identity, seemed to have no more inhibitions about teasing me.

He is a lolita complex, and I am a loli, an eighteen-year-old loli.

"Xiao Ai, where are you going?"

"Go to the kitchen and cook." Xiao Ai said without turning her head.

Seeing Ai walk into the kitchen, Tanigawa smiled proudly.

Xiao Ai, Xiao Ai, you kept wanting to leave just now, but I just used a little trick to make you forget about it.

Even if you are a genius researcher in the organization, so what? You still have to wash clothes and cook for me, right?
Poor little Ai, you were played around by me.
