Conan: The Mechanic

[Foreword Summary: While methadone did relieve the pain in his legs better, Gregory found that the powerful painkiller also seemed to paralyze his keen judgment, which was more than physical pain It was even more intolerable for him. In the end, he chose to give up methadone, and began to steal from Professor Tokiwa Eisaku an experimental drug that, according to preliminary test results, could promote muscle redevelopment in adult mice and secretly take it. After a period of time, his leg strength has improved significantly, and it is very close to the level of normal people...]

……

October 2, late at night.

"Clap!" With such a knocking sound, the front window of a car on the side of the road was shattered. Immediately afterwards, a white-haired woman covering her right abdomen with one hand opened the car window, staggered into the car, stepped on the accelerator, and drove the car away.

On the way she walked, bloodstains dripped on the ground.

【Nearby...is there anyone you can trust and who can help you deal with all this...】

[Wait a minute, there seems to be one nearby...but...he doesn't seem to be a full member of the organization, but only an offline member of the organization. Maybe if he goes there by himself...]

The severe pain in her lower abdomen struck again, making her moan in extreme pain.

[Forget it, anyway, try your luck with him first, and at least find a way to get the addresses of other people who can ask for help from him. 】

……

At the same time, in front of a toilet window that was not closed in the biological laboratory building of Imperial University.

"..." Gregory stood in front of this window, holding a key in his hand, as if preparing to climb up from here.

"His—" Gregory took a deep breath, then jumped up with his legs, clawed on the window, and climbed inside.

Of course he didn't come here to exercise, but to keep getting new medicines from Tokiwa's lab: his old ones had run out.

To be precise, the injection was finished - after finding that there seemed to be no side effects from taking a large amount of the drug, he began to use this drug to make his own injections and injected them directly into the legs that needed to strengthen the muscles to provide this missing muscle. Special reinforcement.

This thing really works, his muscle strength has been greatly enhanced in a very short period of time. Gregory believed that as long as he could inject some more, the muscles would be able to regain their normal strength...

Just as Gregory, who had stepped on the edge of the window, was about to jump into the toilet, Gregory suddenly felt a sharp pain in his right leg, which was regrowing muscles. "Uh-"

Muscle cramps, it's not one or two, presumably a sequelae of muscle growth or something - it's painful, but it's all worth it considering the positive benefits of the drug in terms of muscle growth.

After gritting his teeth for a few minutes, the recovered Gregory came out of the toilet and walked towards the Tokiwa laboratory in the building.

But to his surprise, there seemed to be people in the lab.

"..." Gregory looked at the light with a confused expression, but finally chose to walk over.

[Although the fact that there are still people here at this time is a bit of a surprise, but it is impossible for him to leave empty-handed - Quan should have someone help him open the door, and save himself the trouble of opening the door with the key he secretly assigned. 】

But after 30 seconds, Gregory felt that things were even more confusing—because it wasn't some graduate student who stayed up all night watching the experiment, but Tokiwa Eisaku who was looking at the experiment report with a livid face.

"Why are you here?" Tokiwa Rongze glanced at Gregory, but did not delve into the matter.

"Well... your experimental drug should be very close to success, so I came here to congratulate you and discuss the feasibility of another new drug with you." Gregory also ignored this question and put it on it freely. Nearly, at the same time turning his eyes to the place where those muscle building drugs were previously placed.

But, there was nothing—the place was nothing at all right now.

Just when Gregory was looking at other places without giving up, searching for the location of the medicine, Tokiwa Eisaku's words made him fall into an ice cave.

"Oh, then don't forget to ask for a place for the Nobel Prize for me, in the name of inventing the world's most expensive rat poison."

"What do you mean?" Gregory's face froze. "Those mice, what happened?"

"To put it simply, tumors, a large number of tumors were found in the internal organs." Tokiwa Rongze handed over a dozen photos to Gregory. "You can see for yourself."

"..." Gregory quickly took the photo and flipped through it.

The first photo is of a mouse that has been dissected to the extent that its intestines are open and its stomach is broken.

And the second photo is a photo of a dissected organ - there are dense black dots all over it.

Gregory is very clear, that is the tumor: Although it does not look like a big tumor, it is already a large tumor in the category of humans in mice.

What's more troubling is that these tumors are not alone, but in groups, many and many.

Gregory glanced at his right leg, which seemed to be doing fine, and then at the cage where the mice that were taking the drugs were kept - if he remembered correctly, in the observation wall where the cages were stacked. Originally, there were many, many lively guinea pigs~www.readwn.com~, but now, there is not a single guinea pig in all the cages on that wall.

None of the mice given the drug survived.

"That... before they got sick, did they have any special symptoms?" Suppressing his inner anxiety, Gregory continued to ask.

"The rats suddenly started to have muscle spasms, stiff legs, and difficulty moving - I thought they were just getting used to the new muscle growth. But after just one day, they started to die... Anyway, it should be These are serious problems that cannot be overcome, and this road will never work.”

"..." Gregory's expression was a little distorted, and his hands in his pockets kept shaking.

……

20 minutes later, Fujiwara House

"It seems that someone is knocking on the door, is it my illusion?" Fujiwara glanced in the direction of the door, and continued the kneading movement in his hands, while facing Hideyoshi, who was sitting between his legs and watching TV with him. .

"Probably not, it should be your acquaintance? After all, this is your house." Ying reminded. "It's your turn to open the door~"

"Well, get up, I'll go."

[Who is... the girl who came to find me, or the girl who came to find Yingying, or the girl who came to find me and Yingying? 】Walking to the door, Fujiwara thought like this.

But when Fujiwara looked out the cat's eye, he saw a completely unexpected person - although it was probably the girl who came to him.

"How are you..." Fujiwara opened the door quickly, and before he had time to ask questions, he realized that the other party's condition was really bad.

Because Curacao, who was outside the door, stumbled and fell in through the open door.
