It ended the following year, the last 4 chapters being released one day at a time.

3Haibara has a permanent solution to APTX: a metal which, after implanted into Shinichi's body, should have helped his body stay 16 or 17 years old. Shinichi, being the way he is, doesn't stop to think of the consequences when it's offered to him. What happens afterwards will really make him regret ever accepting it - he begins to morph into something that isn't really human anymore.

12!! ''Experiment'' contains examples of:
13* AlienAbduction: The end of chapter 4. However, Shinichi gets to ride in Ladrafiefr's shuttle instead of the usual abduction method, making this a hybrid of this and StayWithTheAliens.
14* AliensSpeakingEnglish: Ladrafiefr.
15* ConvenientComa: Used as part of the procedure to bring Shinichi back.
16* CursedWithAwesome: Who wouldn't want [[spoiler: wings]]?
17* {{Cyborg}}: Shinichi and Ladrafiefr. Later it's revealed that [[spoiler: Haibara]] is one too.
18* DeathByOriginStory: Not a real death per se because Shinichi is Conan, but it would still count.
19* [[spoiler: EpicFlail]]: The second set of wires becomes [[spoiler: a pair of cords with wrecking balls on the ends]], which is pretty much the cyborg attachment version of this trope.
20* GoneHorriblyRight: The whole premise of the fic, paired with [[GoneHorriblyWrong its opposite]] and thrown into one whole fic. The reason for this is that the metal does stop Shinichi from turning back into Conan, causing a huge revelation that he can't go back to the Shonen Tanteidan (bar Haibara, obviously) ever again, but also causes him to become a mutating {{cyborg}}.
21* GoneHorriblyWrong: See its opposite above.
22* OrWasItADream: The dream in one chapter.
23* PlotTriggeringDeath: See 'Death by Origin Story' above.
24* ProHumanTranshuman: every former-human in the Cyborg list above.
25* RubberForeheadAliens/HumanoidAliens: Ladrafiefr.
26* ShoutOut: Sezaria is one to ''Literature/ExpiryDate'', whereas Ran's fall from the sky in chapter 5 could allude to ''Doppelganger''...all works by the same author.
27* TenderTears: Ran, after hearing from Haibara the whole explanation. From her dialogue, TearsOfRemorse territory is crossed.
28---> Ran: I didn't know what was happening...all this time...
29* [[WasOnceAMan Was Once Human]]: The inhabitants of Sezaria.
30* WhatMeasureIsANonHuman: Shinichi being of the Good Cyborg sort, with brain intact.
31* WhereAreTheyNowEpilogue: [[spoiler: Shinichi runs his own detective agency and Ran lives in it. Kazuha's confessed to Heiji but they haven't ever gone on a proper date. Ran's put Ladrafiefr to work cleaning the old Kudo mansion. Haibara is still in school. Generic decided to commit suicide after being in school for a while.]]
32* [[spoiler: WingedHumanoid]]: Shinichi's first sign of something going horribly wrong is [[spoiler: a pair of wings]].
33* YouRemindMeOfX: The author's explanation as to why Haibara called Ran 'neechan' is a variant 2. [[NeverGotToSayGoodbye Considering what happened in canon...]]
