Conan: The Magician of the End of the Century

Chapter 265 Dr. A Li
On the other side, at the home of Dr. Ali, a group of children from the Young Detective Team had gathered together. Looking at the messy living room with junk food packaging everywhere, they were all speechless and choked for a moment.

"Doctor, how come your house is in such a mess after I haven't seen it for a few days?" Xiao Ai glanced at the French fries scattered on the floor with disgust, pinched her brows helplessly and complained, "It's really hard to live alone like this. It makes people worry that one day something unexpected will happen due to health problems. Besides, you are not short of money, so you might as well find a nanny to take care of your daily life."

"Ahem, actually I haven't considered this issue." After hearing Xiao Ai's suggestion, Dr. A Li scratched his head in embarrassment and said, "But Xiao Ai, you also know that I have a lot of confidential information about research here. It's always inconvenient to have people you don't know well around..."

Knowing that what the other party said made sense, Xiao Ai sighed helplessly again and said: "Hey, in that case, I can only run to your side more often and try my best to take care of your life."

After hearing the conversation between the two, the three little ones on the side also came over and supported Xiao Ai seriously: "That's right, Dr. Ali, you are really worrying about this. For your health, we will do it when we are free in the future." I’ll come over and supervise you!”

Seeing the serious expressions of the children, Dr. Ali was so frightened that he quickly took a step back, waved his hands and politely declined: "Ah, no, no, I don't think I'm old enough to need your care... "

"Let me tell you, doctor, since you don't want outsiders to take care of your life, you'd better quickly find a caring wife. Look, your friends' sons are all married, but you are still single." He looked a little overwhelmed. Conan took the opportunity to encourage Dr. Ali, "Don't you already have someone you care about? Then just pursue him."

"What? Dr. Ali, do you actually like someone? Who is it? Tell us quickly!" After hearing Conan's words, the three little ones immediately lost their composure. Even Xiao Ai and Xiao Saki were a little surprised. However, the doctor's reaction soon proved that Conan's statement was not groundless.

The doctor's old face turned red, his hands shook faster and faster, and he denied desperately: "Don't listen to Conan's nonsense. I'm either spending time in the laboratory or taking you out to play every day. I don't have time to find a partner. Besides, the most important thing now is to find the invitation first, as today is the last day for the receipt!"

Seeing that the doctor was avoiding changing the subject, Conan did not continue to embarrass him. He glanced around and then rolled his eyes and asked, "So, doctor, what does the invitation you are looking for look like?" ?”

"It's in an envelope the size of a postcard. I only took one look at it and forgot where I put it..." Seeing that the last topic was finally confused for the time being, Dr. Ali wiped the sweat on his forehead. Trying to remember.

"Then let's quickly split up and start looking." The three little ones also quickly reacted. Remembering the business they came here for today, they immediately split up and took action.

At this moment, the doorbell outside the house suddenly rang. Dr. Ali thought it was the takeaway he had ordered at some point. When he opened the door, he saw that it was Ishino leading a three-year-old boy standing outside the courtyard.

"Mr. Ishino, are you here to see me for something, or are you here to see Xiaoai and Xiaosaki?" Seeing his boss who suddenly came to visit, Dr. Ali immediately greeted him with a smile and said, "They are here Come in, please come in." "Actually, I came here specifically to see you, Doctor, today." Ishino explained while leading Naia into the house, "I have a new product design plan that I want to discuss with you. , I heard from Xiao Ai not long ago that you happened to be free at home today, so I brought my children over here. I shouldn’t have disturbed your rest, right?"

"It's okay, it's okay. I really have nothing important to do today. I just asked the children to come over and help me find an invitation." Dr. A Li explained with a smile, and then looked curiously at the big man at his feet who had been staring at him. The cute baby asked Ishino, "I heard from Xiao Ai that the family has adopted a new younger brother named Naia. I guess he is this cute kid, right?"

Ishino nodded when he heard the words, but Naia beside him, his eyes sparkling, took the initiative to introduce himself: "Hello, Dr. Agasa! My name is Funakoshi Naia. I heard from my father that you are a super-powerful scientist." Bar!"

Facing Naiya's admiring gaze, Dr. Ari scratched his head in embarrassment and said modestly: "Ah haha, it's not that exaggerated. Although I have invented many things, most of them are useless, so now I am still just Just an unknown inventor."

Seeing Dr. Agasa's humble appearance but actually being happy in his heart, Ishino took advantage of the situation and launched a sugar-coated attack: "Dr. Agasa, you are so humble. Since you joined our company, various era-changing products have sprung up. There are so many new ones, which fully proves your strong position in the industry.”

"If you hadn't said that you prefer a leisurely life and don't want to be in the public eye, and deliberately concealed your identity as a consultant in the project, just the new products that you participated in the design and development would have been enough to make your admirers step over the threshold."

These words were spoken by Ishino honestly and without any flattery. After all, Dr. Agasa is a man who possesses the most cutting-edge technology in the science world. If either the winery or the zoo discovers the power of Dr. Agasa, He was kidnapped or killed everywhere. Conan and Kaito, the two children of the world who relied heavily on Dr. Agasa's invention, had long been killed.

Dr. Ali's low-key style has precisely realized the secrecy of his abilities, thus ensuring his personal safety. He has become a hidden boss who single-handedly fights against the advanced equipment of the red and black forces. He is truly worthy of standing behind the protagonist. That man.

However, Dr. Agasa himself obviously did not have the consciousness of being a hidden boss. After hearing Ishino's words, he waved his hands in embarrassment and said: "Mr. Ishino is really flattering. I just shared some of my invention experience and finally put my ideas into practice." Achievement depends on the joint efforts of everyone.”

While they were talking, the three of them had already arrived in the living room. The three little ones who were looking for invitations all over the room greeted Ishino politely when they saw him coming in. Conan also heard from the previous conversation between the three of them outside the door. I understood Ishino’s purpose, so I wasn’t too surprised.

The two sisters, Xiaoai and Xiaosaki, had long known what their father was bringing Naia to discuss with the doctor, so they just greeted them and continued their previous work of cleaning the house.
