Conan: Science Cartoonist Kudo Yuji

Chapter 229 Killing Bacteria

"Yesterday, the Biological Research Center in Seymourdo City was attacked and blown up by terrorists. The gang of criminals claimed to be Red Siamese cats. They advertised on the Internet that they had stolen horrific murderous bacteria and would conduct a second activity three days later. .”

On the third floor of the Maori Detective Agency, watching the news being broadcast on TV, the three of Xiaolan stopped their chopsticks.

"Why is Semodo City again, the biological research center was invaded by terrorists, the security measures are too poor."

Holding his chin, Yuji coughed twice, and looked over Xiaolan to Conan.

"What are you doing, uncle?"

Holding the rice bowl half as big as his face on the table, Conan shrank back.

"You and those little ghosts should pay attention. The news said that if children are infected with that kind of bacteria, the fatality rate is as high as 80.00%."

Frowning, Yuji drank the beer in the glass and handed the glass to Xiaolan obediently.

After that drinking session, in order to ensure that she would not be suspected in front of Conan, Machiko was allowed to drink one can of beer a day by Xiaolan.

Putting down the bowls and chopsticks, Yuji took off the suit jacket from the hanger, and walked towards the entrance while getting dressed.

"...Dad, where are you going so late?"

Xiaolan also stepped back a little and followed Yuji. When she noticed that Shinichi didn't come over, she asked in a low voice: "Machiko, where are you going?"

He took out a pair of Uncle Mori's leather shoes from the shoe cabinet, stuffed the height-enhancing insoles in them, and put them next to Xiaolan's ears.

"I'll take a taxi and go to the Metropolitan Police Department to have a look. If such a big incident happened, Officer Mumu must have inside information."

Patting Xiaolan's shoulder, the boy pointed at Conan who was still eating in the living room and smiled.

"If you come back late, you should go to bed first."

After speaking, under the worried eyes of the unicorn girl, Yuji pushed open the door on the third floor of Mori's house, and took a taxi to the Metropolitan Police Department.

"Brother, red Siamese cat, isn't that..."

At the training base of the organization, Vodka standing behind Gin looked at the news on TV and seemed to remember something.

"what…"

Lighting a cigarette with the lighter on the table, Gin glanced at his younger brother and refocused his attention on Chianti and Cohen who were training.

In front of the holographic projection device, the two sniper rifles kept updating the shooting records. The target they aimed at was obviously the projected one, Tumen Kanghui, who was preparing to participate in the congressional competition.

"More than ten years ago, because of the indiscriminate attack on the six major consortiums, the boss later said that he had collected protection fees from the consortia and asked us to get rid of those guys."

Seeing Gin's suddenly enlightened expression, Vodka continued.

"At that time, the six major consortiums all contributed a lot of money, and the Karasuma consortium came forward to conduct transactions with the organization."

"I remembered." Gin Jiu spit out the cigarette butt in his mouth, and looked at the sniper duo whose shooting distance stopped at about [-] yards, feeling a little dissatisfied.

"Damn! Once the environment is bad, the accuracy will be out of control."

Holding the gun in front of his chest, Chianti was about to re-aiming when he was stopped by Gin from behind.

"Enough is enough. By then we and Tumen Kanghui will not exceed 500 meters. This result is enough."

Gin slowly stepped forward to take Cohen's gun, and adjusted the distance to [-] yards. In the simulated rainy environment, a bullet hit Tumen Kanghui between the eyebrows.

After turning off the projection device and returning the sniper rifle to Cohen, Gin looked at the TV broadcasting the news in the corner, and took out his mobile phone from his pocket.

"Big brother..."

Several people took a few steps back consciously, watching Gin turn off the phone screen and standing there motionless, Vodka stepped forward cautiously.

"The boss said that Spiris will confirm this matter."

Turning off the electric switch of this training base, Qin Jiu walked in front, he snorted as his right leg paused, and took his subordinates into the car.

He took out the car keys from his pocket and started the Porsche that Geer drove back. Vodka stepped on the accelerator and drove the car on the road.

"Brother, new cars from the United States have arrived."

Lighted a cigarette again with the car cigarette lighter, and the gin slowly exhaled smoke, watching Chianti and Cohen driving behind from the rearview mirror.

"Send the car and keys to Belmode."

"Yes…"

.........

"Brother Maori, why are you here?"

In the office of the Third Section of the Metropolitan Police Department's first search section, Officer Megure stared unnaturally at Kogoro Mori who suddenly appeared on his seat, clenched his hands into fists.

Could it be, there is a new event...

"Officer Megure, is what the news said true?"

Taking out high-grade coffee powder from Officer Megure's drawer, Yuji found a paper cup to make coffee for himself, and opened the fried chicken nugget set meal.

The scent immediately permeated the office at night, and the policemen who volunteered to work overtime all looked up at the moment and found the Maori detective who was eating happily.

Glancing at the subordinate who started to fish, Officer Megure noticed another takeaway on the desk, and opened the lid without any politeness.

"Just think of this as your late-night snack for me."

Waving his hand, Yuji took a sip of coffee, picked up a piece of fried chicken and put it into his mouth.

"It doesn't matter, I bought it for you originally."

After eating and drinking enough, Yuji was driven into the toilet by police officer Megure, and when he found no one, he hugged his chest and asked, "Can you tell me now?"

"Originally, the police planned to keep it a secret, so as not to cause social panic. But they didn't expect those red Siamese cats to release the notice on the Internet in advance. Now there is no other way, and Police Chief Odagiri allowed those reporters to report the news."

With the idea that everything has come, Police Officer Megure unbuttoned his pants in front of the urinal, reminiscing about the meeting in the afternoon while draining the water.

"What's the origin of the red Siamese cat?"

"Huh?" Police Officer Megure looked at Kogoro Mori suspiciously, and shivered by the way.

"Isn't the terrorist organization that attacked the consortium more than ten years ago a red Siamese cat? Brother Maori, I remember you were still working as a policeman at the time, have you forgotten?"

"Ah... ah! I remembered! The red Shera cat, right!" Patting himself on the head vigorously, Yuji smiled embarrassedly, pretending to be a fool.

"I've been drinking too much lately, and I'm not clear-headed. I'm so weird."

After washing his hands, Officer Megure was going back to the office to work overtime, while Yuji was going home.

"By the way, Brother Mori." Officer Megure suddenly stopped and turned to look at Yuji.

"The killer bacteria can be transmitted in droplets. Now that masks and hand sanitizers haven't been snapped up, it's better to buy some and store them at home."

"What about Police Officer Megure?" Yuji looked out the window, it was already dark, and the pharmacy would probably be closed when they got off work.

"You don't have to worry about me, we were notified in the morning, and all the police have bought it."

Holding on to his hat, Officer Megure glared at Kogoro Mori.

"The bacterial infection has not yet been reported by reporters, but please don't tell anyone else, otherwise I will be scolded by the superiors."
