laboratory.
Conan walked down from the examination machine, and a doctor wearing a mask came over and prepared to draw blood from Conan.
Vermouth stopped the other person: "This child had five tubes of blood drawn yesterday. No more blood can be drawn. If there is excessive blood loss, it will seriously affect the subsequent examinations."
The doctor was a little unhappy when he heard this: "It's just a few tubes of blood. We can't tell right now whether his physique is that of a teenager or a child. It doesn't matter if we draw more. He can recover anyway."
"He's completely different from the other test subjects." Vermouth retorted coldly, "Serke, don't use those mice's numbers as a reference. He's the only successful test subject. If the master knew you affected the test results, he would never let you go."
Dr. Serk suddenly looked a little gloomy, and curled his lips slightly in dissatisfaction: "I know."
So he just pricked Conan's finger with a blood collection needle and took a few drops of blood for research.
Then several more doctors came and took turns checking Conan's condition, but perhaps because of what Vermouth had just said, they did not dare to do any dangerous examinations on Conan. They just went through a very standard physical examination process.
After waiting for more than half an hour to produce a report and confirming Conan's identity as Kudo Shinichi, Enda came out again: "Please come this way, the gentleman wants to see him."
Conan's eyelids twitched and he was very excited.
Finally! Is he finally going to meet that gentleman?
Simply great!
Conan has long been curious about this man, who is said to be over 140 years old, and now he can finally meet him in person...
Enda took Conan out of the laboratory, walked back and forth several times in the long and narrow corridor, then took the special elevator, and finally came to a pure white and closed small room.
Conan couldn't help but look around here, and finally his eyes suddenly fell on the electronic screen in the center.
Enda walked over, clicked on the electronic screen, and bowed slightly towards him: "Sir, the person has been brought here. It is indeed the successful case of Drug A."
The electronic screen lit up, and a thin black shadow appeared on the screen.
Conan was very disappointed.
Is there still no way to see the real person?
This is a bit too cautious!!!
"Let him come over here so I can take a closer look."
Without Enda's instruction, Conan took the initiative to walk forward, even going so far as to get right in front of the electronic screen and asking in feigned surprise, "Huh? Isn't this gentleman here? Why do we need to communicate through the electronic screen?"
Karasuma Renye chuckled, then said, "Why? Do you want to see me in person?"
"Of course I do. I heard that you are over 140 years old. Is that true?" Conan tilted his head slightly, looking like a child speaking innocently.
"Hehehe——"
There was a strange sound coming from the other side, and Conan listened hard, trying to discern the message in the sound.
"I don't mind telling you," Karasuma Renya said, "I'm actually 150 years old this year."
Conan gasped.
Is this really a human? This feels like it has completely exceeded the physiological limits of the human body!
It's absolutely terrible.
But it was precisely because of this that Conan remembered what the strange sound from the other side was.
——An oxygen machine, but it doesn’t look like the kind of machine you see in a hospital.
The voice was muffled, and when Karasuma Renya spoke, it was as if he was shrouded in a cover. There was also some electric sound when it came through. It sounded weird, without any ups and downs. It was inexplicably like a mixture of human and mechanical sounds, neither human nor mechanical, which made people feel cold.
"I've never seen anyone live to be 150 years old. Can I see you?"
Conan asked directly and frankly, not worrying at all that the other party would get angry.
As expected, Karasuma Renya didn't agree, but he didn't get angry either. Instead, he said, "No."
Still not working?
Conan was in a complicated mood, but Enda looked calm and talked to Karasuma Renya about Rum and others waiting outside.
"They didn't bring their tails with them, did they?" asked Uesugi Renya.
"No unusual movement was detected around here."
"very good……"
There was silence for a moment, and then someone said, "Let them rest for a while and then leave."
"Yes."
Conan was shocked.
This is too bad. You actually plan to throw it away after using it?
Given Rum and Gin's personalities, it would probably be very embarrassing.
After all, no one can accept that after working hard for several days, they finally arrive at the doorstep, but are sent back without even seeing the owner.
Conan glanced at Vermouth. Vermouth's expression looked very calm. It seemed that she had gotten used to it a long time ago.
"Vermouth, please stay."
Finally, Karasuma Renya said to Vermouth.
Vermouth's expression was cold: "I understand."
"Okay, let's go."
After just talking for a while, Karasuma Renya seemed very tired and gave the final order directly.
Then the electronic screen gradually dimmed and returned to darkness.
Enda motioned for the two to follow him and leave.
Conan still looked over there with unyielding hope, and finally his eyes fell on the blank wall over there.
The whiteness of that wall seemed a bit abrupt, as if it was hiding something. Next to it stood a machine that looked like a center console. It looked like it was the control panel for some door.
Speaking of keys, Conan thought of Green Chat.
You know, Green Chat was eliminated by the organization because he secretly hid a key.
And that key is said to be the key to open the last door of the gentleman.
But Conan now doubts this.
Is it really the key to the "door"?
"I've already arrived at the master's door, but I couldn't see him. It's such a pity." Conan said while observing the expressions of Vermouth and Enda.
Enda had no expression and was still lifeless, as if he didn't hear Conan's words. He led his men forward in silence, while Vermouth gave Conan a meaningful look.
Conan pondered.
So he guessed right?
Alas, I don’t know if Mr. Zhufu brought the key with him.
Just as the three of them were walking back to the laboratory, a sharp alarm suddenly sounded above their heads.
"Woo--Woo--"
Everyone was stunned.
Conan's eyes widened, his heart pounding: What happened? Who did it?
-
lounge.
Rum's face was gloomy. After confirming that the gentleman would not see him, he made up his mind and signaled the people around him to take action.
Then, alarms sounded throughout the hall.
"Woo--Woo--"
The ground of the entire fortress suddenly began to tremble, and the lights above began to flash dangerous red lights.
"What, what's going on—"
Grenada suddenly stood up from his seat, then looked at the people in front of him warily: "Is it you?"
As he finished speaking, the ground tilted again, and almost everyone subconsciously fell in one direction.
"Do it-"
Rum growled in a low voice, and then the subordinate who came with him pulled out the fishing line in his hand and strangled Ente's neck tightly.
"Well--"
Ent had no chance to fight back and struggled violently while being strangled, but his neck was soon broken by the other party and he died completely.
"Rum, you—"
Grenada looked at Rum in horror.
I never expected that the first person to take action would be Rum!
