Conan: I'm Not a Ghost

8:35 pm, Yokosuka.

Under the command of the mothership's pilot, an F117 stealth fighter-bomber named Nighthawk developed by the American Lockheed Company, equipped with a GBU-28 laser ground-penetrating bomb, took off smoothly from the deck.

The nighthawk was pure black, blending in with the night. As soon as it took off, it immediately increased its altitude, drove straight up, and quickly entered the clouds. After hovering in the sky for a week, it headed towards Yokosuka again at an altitude of 10,000 meters.

but

This time, its destination has changed slightly.

The F117 fighter jet, with a radar reflection area between 0.01 and 0.01 square meters, relied on its superior performance to pass through the Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force's strict air defense radar network and infrared detectors without any hindrance. After arriving at the predetermined location, it was dropped A GBU-28 laser ground-penetrating bomb was fired.

This was a military operation without warning. The Japanese military did not receive any news. Even the American military base was caught off guard. When the base commander called the Secretary of State, he decided to follow the orders of his superiors.

The GBU-28, which fell like a parabola in the air, was quickly discovered by the radar of the Maritime Self-Defense Force. The command post was suddenly in chaos, and they didn't know who dared to take the opportunity to sneak attack them.

However, the missile has been launched, and it is too late to activate the interception device at this moment.

They could only watch the red dot on the radar falling rapidly. Everyone was praying that the bomb was not a little boy, otherwise the entire Yokosuka would be reduced to ruins.

The red dot fell to the ground, and the expected explosion did not occur. Instead, it was peaceful.

"Dumb bomb?"

The soldiers at the command post were stunned for a moment, feeling a little incredible.

Just when they breathed a sigh of relief, the GBU-28, which successfully entered the valley, easily tore through the thick concrete wall that Sakaki and others were helpless with its first-layer internal penetration warhead, until it penetrated deep underground. After more than ten meters, his own delay fuse was triggered.

The originally calm ground cracked in an instant, fire shot up into the sky and violent explosions resounded through the night sky, and the small valley suddenly turned into a sea of ​​fire.

The shock wave mixed with gravel and strong wind hit the hillside where Sakaki Cheng and others were hiding. They lowered their bodies. Although they were not directly affected by the bomb, just feeling the shock wave was uncomfortable. They all fell into a brief state of tinnitus and chest tightness.

After the explosion, there was calm again, this time it was truly dead silence.

"Wow, this bomb is really powerful!"

The special soldier raised his head from the pile of dirt, shook the dust off his head, and said with lingering fear:

"Everyone inside must be dead now."

"We can't take it lightly yet."

Sakaki stood up, holding the M4 carbine and said:

"Boss is very cunning. It is inevitable that he will not have any other defensive measures. We must go in to check the situation. Only after confirming his death can we feel at ease."

"That's not necessary!"

The special soldier swallowed, looked at the hole burning with some flames and said:

"The GBU-28 ground-penetrating bomb is a high-performance bomb that has killed thousands of people at one time in previous wars! It still uses the vacuum principle. Once it explodes, it will release a large amount of flammable gas, which will be scattered around the target and will It surrounds and then ignites. The oscillating airflow generated after the gas is ignited can penetrate the wall and fully react with the oxygen in the space to form a partial vacuum. If a fortress like this is hit by a GBU-28, the people inside will definitely die! "

"You can wait outside or retreat."

Sakaki said calmly:

"I'll go in alone."

After saying that, Sakaki walked towards the burning cave entrance without looking back.

When the special soldier saw this scene, his face was uncertain. After hesitating for a long time, he slammed the ground and got up:

"Let's go! Go in and take a look!"

The current situation is different from before. This is their only chance to retreat. If they don't retreat now, countless soldiers will come to check the explosion site later. Their actions will be exposed by then. In order not to expose the chief of staff, action plan

Once you enter the fortress, the result is destined to be death.

Of course, having said that, they still have a plan.

After entering the fortress, kill Sakaki and then quickly evacuate, so that they still have the possibility of escaping from the scene.

In view of the fact that Hiroki could invade their communication channels at will, the special soldiers did not directly tell them their plans, but used actions to hint to other members that they planned to take action after entering the fortress.

When he came to the burning cave entrance, it was already in ruins, with rubble all over the ground. Sakaki stepped on a few concrete slabs that were not completely broken, and successfully entered the fortress with 50 special soldiers.

After entering the fortress, the first thing you see is the tunnel that is about to collapse. If it were not for the large amount of steel bars used to fix it, the tunnel would have collapsed long ago.

There were black and red unknown liquids and corpse remains flowing on the ground. After walking a few steps, you could see eyeballs that had exploded due to the negative pressure of the vacuum. They were either wearing black suits or white coats. The scene was extremely bloody, and there was a smell of fish in the air. A greasy, unpleasant smell.

Faced with this tragic situation, the expressions of the special forces soldiers changed one after another, and the hands holding the firearms could not help but tremble slightly. This place could no longer be described as a ruin, but a complete hell on earth!

Even after walking a long way, there was no trace of living people in the fortress. GBU-28 seemed to have completely destroyed this solid underground fortress. No members inside survived, and even various scientific research facilities were destroyed.

final.

Sakaki and the special forces soldiers followed the hole drilled by GBU-28 and reached the bottom of the fortress.

In the complex tunnel, Sakaki found a place similar to a conference room. The place was completely unrecognizable due to the explosion, but the solid wood fragments scattered on the ground proved how luxurious it once was.

besides

There was also a body sitting on a wheelchair that had been burned into disfigurement by the flames.

There were many people in black and doctors gathered around the corpse. The name written on the nameplate on the chest of one of the doctors was exactly what Miss Miyano had mentioned in the tunnel of Baskerville Manor.

If nothing unexpected happens

These doctors should be the medical masters responsible for maintaining Karasuma Renye's survival.

Could it be that the burnt corpse in front of me is Renya Karasuma?

Is he really dead?

Sakaki poked the corpse's head with the muzzle of his gun, but the corpse showed no reaction. It was indeed dead.

"Mr. Sakaki, there is nothing left here except a few research equipment. According to our inspection, this should be the bottom of the fortress, and there are no other survivors."

The special soldier walked up to Sakaki, stared at the body in the wheelchair with him, and said silently:

"You should feel relieved now, right?"

"rest assured?"

Sakaki shook his head, took out the saber attached to the side of the soldier's thigh, cut off a piece of skin from the corpse, walked to the research table, and made a call at the same time:

"Hiroki, I will send you the information in a moment. You can use the DNA tracking system to test it to see if the information I sent is that of Karasuma Renya."

"OK."
