Yeah, I knew the name before. I knew it appeared in one of those really long cases. However they still haven't shown how he looks like and wasn't the old meng already very, very old before. Like from years and years ago. I know it's implied the boss is old, but it's possible that his descendant is the current boss or something. I heard such a theory anyway.Idea of Gaslight said:Yeah his name has veen revealed, but he's probably taken up another identity since.

that could be, but iirc what i remember from the case the meng lived over at-least 50 years ago or so (they talked like it was a legend) and the meng was already old then, so what are the chances of having got such an advanced drug so long ago. Vermouth did though, maybe that something was something that only happened twice (once to the boss & once to vermouth) and now they want to permanently create a method to affect their age/life-span whenever they want, so they went-on to do research for the drug APTX-4869.Idea of Gaslight said:Fantastische Hure said:Yeah, I knew the name before.

It's almost definite that he just deaged himself like Vermouth is heavily implied to have, and then taken up a new name after faking his death
Yeah, Vermouth seems against it. Maybe it wasn't all great for her.Idea of Gaslight said:Well, the Conan world isn't very realistic in general, because if you sweated away enough calcium to be reverted to the skeletal structure of a 6 year old you'd probably be covered in evidence, plus your nervous system contracting that much would probably induce death in of itself
I'm betting an earlier, or perhaps similar but unrelated drug was involved in deaging those individuals, yet also left extremely heavy side effects given the boss is still researching new methods to achieve his goals (presumably extreme longetivity) and Vermouth seems to secretly be plotting against the organization which hints the drug or whatever she gained from the organization came at a great personal cost (like a side effect perhaps?).
I don't know why Vermouth would hate it though. She's a world-renowned actress, she should be all like "OMG Yes. I stay young forever.", but then again she's also a criminal.Idea of Gaslight said:Lol, so he miscalculated the dose and turned to a perpetual child while Vermouth is always barely 30 years old? That must suck balls
Or maybe he took so much, the Conan world became full of immortal, ageless beings
Do they have any evidence? And how many of the FBI know? I know Jodie does, since she killed her parents.Idea of Gaslight said:What I don't get is why they can't just arrest her while she's in the public as Chris Vineyard. Never seemed to be adequately explained, esp since all the relevant characters already know she's a BO member

Akai is an intelligent one. Perhaps he knows there are still somethings she can be helpful with in regards to the organisation, especially considering she's kind-of against its goals now.Idea of Gaslight said:Fantastische Hure said:Do they have any evidence.

She's run around in her Chris face and been nearly arrested by Akai and Jodie, I'm sure the evidence is all there.
She is said to be the boss' favourite, so maybe he knows and is just in denial about it.Idea of Gaslight said:She hasn't made her agenda against the BO public tho, or the Carasuma would've already had her executed
Unless ofc Akai is smarter than him
Crazy, what mengs are willing to risk just to get a little action isn't it?Idea of Gaslight said:Wow, so he puts his organization at risk just to get her pussy?
