Conan: I am definitely not a kid

Chapter 82 A surprise for Rai
  It's an extremely weird-looking scene.

In the middle of the empty factory building, gunshots continued to crackle. The two sides in the firefight were the members of the Iwabori Group, who were surrounded by darkness, and a person who was covered in iron and looked like a person. The members of the Iwabori Group refused to admit that the person opposite was a human being.

And in the hail of bullets, the one who fell was not the Tin Man who had been shot several times and blood was oozing from his feet, but the numerous Iwabori group.

"What's going on!" Seeing the people around him fall to the ground one after another, a member of the Iwabori group shouted in fear, "Can't this thing be killed?"

He held the gun with both hands and fired continuously, and the last shot even broke off a large piece of the opponent's metal armor, revealing the skin with bright red blood flowing inside.

There is actually a person inside!
  how can that be!

How could a person be shot so many times and still not die!
  The members of the Iwabori group collapsed.

The organization has a research department that specializes in bulletproof materials, but the laboratory led by Mori Yuro is obviously not involved in these. The disposable protective armor they put on R-01 quickly became dented and damaged during the intensive shooting. shattered, or even shot directly through by bullets.

Blood gurgled out from the breach in the armor, but the Tin Man seemed to be completely unaware of the pain. His movements did not pause at all, and with a single muzzle, he swept towards the members of Iwabori's group!

"boom!"

"Ahhhh!!" The members of the Iwabori group fought to the death, and the last bullet hit the helmet steadily.

The Tin Woodman's skull made a dull sound. The helmet, which was obviously wider and thicker than other armors, was clearly not damaged, but the Tin Woodman's movements stopped.

On the other side of the factory, in a hidden command vehicle, a group of researchers were checking the video and data as if facing an enemy.

"R-01's actions have stopped!"

"Did that gun hit the controller just now?!"

"Is there any response to the brain wave monitoring?"

"The data fluctuates slightly, but it is still within the normal range and should not cause much damage."

The leading researcher caught this sentence amid the noisy sound of instrument alarms, meter readings, and researchers' buzzing conversations, and immediately looked up at the screen in the center.

Sure enough, in the video, the person was thrown back by the shot, and all he could see was the roof of the building. The angle of view finally moved. As soon as the camera panned, it regained its level gaze, facing the members of the Iwabori group with frightened faces.

Seeing that R-01 had no reaction, the researcher reacted quickly: "Change the attack group to stimulate!"

Although R-01 seems to have a unclear mind, after testing during this period, researchers found that he actually still retains most of the abilities he once mastered.

This experimental subject was also a peripheral member of the organization, and he was proficient in skills such as shooting and fighting. After a period of experiments, researchers have discovered that they can stimulate R-01 to specific areas of the brain to varying degrees, prompting R-01 to react in a reflexive manner.

This shows that R-01's brain still retains its previous functions to a certain extent and has not been completely destroyed.

If they can successfully figure out the key to the problem, they might be able to develop rapid recovery technology that can preserve wakefulness and memory based on this!
  This is the reason why this group of researchers, who usually hide from the action team thousands of miles away, all participated in the field mission today for the first time.

R-01 received new stimulation and quickly returned to combat status, raising his gun and aiming at the opposite side.

"Bang bang bang!"

A series of gunshots rang out.

The Iwabori group member's vision went dark, and he died with great confusion and fear.

Faced with such a humanoid weapon that was unbeatable, unkillable, and beyond common sense, the members of the Iwabori Group gradually lost their fighting spirit and began to turn around and flee.

"……monster!"

"What the hell is this!" "Run! Don't stop me! I don't want to die!"

However, human legs are not as fast as bullets. If you turn your back on R-01 and run away, you will die under his tireless gun the next second.

Rai looked at the members of the Iwabori group lying on the ground, feeling extremely shocked and calm on the surface: "Is this the surprise you want me to see?"

Mori Yuro nodded and admitted: "Do you like it?"

Rai: "..."

As an undercover agent, he really enjoyed facing such explosive information.

However, as an FBI, he was intimidated by the organization's level of scientific research capabilities.

…Has the current level of medical scientific research really reached a level where we can study this kind of technology?

Even if technology can do it, Akai Shuichi is extremely sure that people's concepts and systems are not ready to take this step.

For a moment, he didn't know whether he should report this news to the FBI.

Is it really a good thing for more people to know about this technology?

There was a turmoil in Rai's heart, and he couldn't calm down for a long time. Mori Yuro continued to speak: "I remember that you were very interested in the abnormality on my body before, so I wanted to show you this."

That time, in order to spy on the news, Rai was blamed by Mori Yura for being 'unable'.

Rai heard the subtext of Mori Yura - in the future, if you want to use your curiosity and target the experimental subject in front of you, don't look for it from her.

...It’s really quite vindictive.

However, since the opportunity came to his door, Rai would not refuse: "Can I go over and have a look?"

"Of course." Moriyuro motioned to Rai to pick up the gun bag, "By the way, take a look at those on the ground who are still alive, and give them a few more shots."
-
  When Mori Yuro and Rai arrived at the bloody scene, R-01 had been injected with a sufficient amount of sedatives and was lying on the ground asleep.

The tranquilizer was placed inside the armor in advance. After all, R-01 had to hand over heavy firepower weapons, and the researchers would not let him out without preparing early countermeasures.

Rai glanced at the Tin Woodman: "What will he do next?"

"There will be a responsible person coming to recover him."

Of course, after Rai left, Mori Yuro was not prepared to let any undercover have any interaction with researchers who had even fewer field experience in and out of the laboratory than she did.

Mori Yura knelt down and checked the condition of R-01.

"I wanted to ask just now." Rai picked up a corpse, made sure that the person underneath was dead, and then moved on to the next one. "Many of his actions didn't look like he was conscious."

"Side effects." Moriyuro said briefly, "This drug is still in the development process."

It seemed like the drug was unsafe, Rai thought, and seemed to have very serious effects on the brain.

As a person who has talents in medicine and is very likely to be engaged in mental work, why on earth would Mori Yura become a test subject for this drug?
  Or……

Thinking of the gap in recovery ability between the Tin Man and Mori Yuro, Rai's eyes darkened.

Is there already a weakened version of this drug that is not as powerful but is safe to use?
