Conan's grammatical investigator

Chapter 1300 Women

Qin Zhibo had just finished bandaging Vermouth and put his clothes back on when a white car stopped at the entrance of the alley.

Mary, who was sitting in the car, honked the horn twice. Qin Zhibo quickly picked up Vermouth and ran towards the car.

He first put Vermouth on the back seat, and then sat in himself.

The moment the car door closed, Mary immediately stepped on the accelerator and the car sped away.

At this point, Qin Zhibo, who was sitting in the back seat, dared to breathe heavily and slumped down in the seat.

Although Vermouth was not heavy, carrying it all the way and worrying about whether there were people from the organization nearby still consumed a lot of mental and physical energy.

Mary, who was sitting in the front driver's seat, controlled the steering wheel while looking at the rearview mirror diagonally above the car.

That face that I hadn't seen for seventeen years and should have felt strange to me, turned out to be still incredibly familiar.

This was indeed the face of the man with whom she had lived day and night.

"Qin..."

"Is it really not him?"

Qin Zhibo knew that the "he" Mary was talking about was Akai Wuwu.

Although she had just watched what was happening on Vauxhall Bridge in the room, she had already realized that the man in front of her was not the man she wanted.

Maybe not even a man...

But in this situation, she couldn't help but want to confirm it more.

"Well, it's not Akai Tsumugi..."

In order to dispel the last bit of unrealistic fantasy in Mary's heart, Qin Zhibo raised his hand and grabbed the edge of the human skin mask at the jaw.

With a strong pull, the face of "Akai Mutake" was torn off like a layer of delicate skin.

The face that was distorted to the point of being completely deformed was thrown onto the seat, revealing a woman's face.

She had long wavy light blonde hair and an impeccably delicate face, and she looked like a creature created by God himself, with her eyes closed peacefully.

Looking at the suddenly changing face, Mary clenched the steering wheel with both hands, and a trace of imperceptible sadness flashed in her pupils.

But the next second, she suppressed her negative emotions and asked sternly.

"Is this woman Vermouth?"

"Yes."

Qin Zhibo nodded affirmatively, looking at the delicate face without a trace of aging, and said lightly: "Perhaps you have some impression of this face. Her public identity in the United States is the female star Chris Wynyard..."

"Really?" Mary said unmoved, "I don't pay much attention to today's TV stars..."

Qin Zhibo straightened Belmode's body and said, "Then she has another identity. She is Chris Wynyard's mother, Sharon Wynyard."

"Sharon Wynyard?"

Mary had obviously heard of this name. She tilted her head in surprise and asked, "Isn't that a famous star who once won an Oscar?"

"Yes, it's her." Qin Zhibo replied.

"In other words, her current appearance is actually a disguise?"

“No…” Qin Zhibo demonstrated by pinching Vermouth’s face. Her skin was so delicate that it could be described as fragile as a baby’s.

"This is not a disguise, this is her real face."

"Or maybe Sharon Wynyard is her disguise..."

Hearing this, Mary, who was driving, was shocked and her eyes were filled with surprise.

Although the birthday of the big star Sharon Wynyard has always been a secret, it is speculated that she was close to 50 years old when she died.

  How is it possible for a woman to maintain this perfect appearance at the age of 50?

But then, her shocked look calmed down again, and she murmured, "Maybe she had plastic surgery..."

This is the most rational guess.

But Qin Zhibo knew that this was not the power of surgical operations such as plastic surgery, but a more "magical" power.

When Vermouth still had this exquisite face, she took the medicine made by Elena Miyano.

This drug is a new drug developed based on the "Silver Bullet", a drug developed by Baijiu Company to treat deep-sea diving syndrome.

It is also the predecessor drug of APTX-4869 currently being developed by Ai Haihara.

On the surface, this medicine has the effect of maintaining youthfulness and stopping the body's aging.

But now that we know that the purpose of the organization's boss is related to Cthulhu, it is hard to imagine that the organization would spend so much energy to develop this kind of drug.

And according to the contents of the tape left by Elena Miyano, Vermouth does not seem to be a beneficiary of the drug, but more like a test subject.

Therefore, this made Qin Zhibo even more convinced that the Black Organization had a deeper purpose in researching drugs.

It is definitely not as simple as a poison to kill people or to keep people young.

Now I finally have the opportunity to ask Vermouth about the purpose of this.

As long as we can figure out the true meaning of these drugs, we can predict the organization's next actions to a certain extent.

A white car was speeding through the intersection with a green light.

Just as the car drove to the middle of the road, a black Hummer SUV suddenly accelerated out from the side of the road.

The two cars collided violently.

Almost in an instant, the white family sedan was lifted off the roof by the four-wheel drive Hummer off-road vehicle.

The white car spun twice in the middle of the road, and the vehicle almost fell in the middle of the road due to centrifugal force.

Fortunately, the car stayed at a 45° angle for one second and then fell back to the ground.

But even so, the front of the car was severely deformed.

The screams of passers-by, the honking of cars, and the sound of sudden brakes echoed throughout the entire intersection.

……

Sitting in the back seat of the white sedan, Qin Zhibo suddenly felt the world spinning around him, as if an earthquake had occurred.

His mind was in a mess now, and he could only use his willpower to force his eyes open.

Through the slightly narrowed eyes, you can see a pure white light.

Suddenly, the white light seemed to be obscured by huge, hazy black shadows.

The shadow pried open the car door with great skill and took something out of the car.

The next second, several gunshots were heard.

Piu, Piu, Piu...

At the same time, Mary, who was in the driver's seat, was lying on the airbag, with almost her entire face sunk into the soft airbag.

She also forced herself to regain consciousness and slowly raised her head.

A line of blood flowing down the forehead obscured his vision.

But she still saw a black Hummer SUV parked outside the shattered front window.

The back door of the SUV was open, and a woman in a windbreaker stood by the door, seemingly directing something.

After a while, two men in black carried a familiar body and stuffed it into the back seat of the car.

"quick!"

"boarding!"

The woman in the windbreaker waved her hand, and the man in black quickly got into the SUV.

The woman was the last one to get on the bus.

Before getting into the car, the woman turned her gaze to the driver's seat of the white car and raised the corners of her mouth slightly towards Mary who was lying on the airbag.

It was a smile that I seemed to have seen somewhere.

Then she got on the SUV and drove away.

Mary lay on the airbag and wanted to get up and chase after him, but the strength in her body and the consciousness in her mind were rapidly fading away.

Before she fell into a coma, the only thing left in her mind was the face smiling at her.

  Elena?

……

Centre Court, Wimbledon, London.

Let…wipe the net.

"Oh~!" There was an uproar in the audience. The sound was a mixture of regret, but more of surprise.

Because the game had just begun, Minerva Glass, the queen of grass who was considered the favorite to win the championship, lost three goals in a row.

The score has reached 0:3.

Mao Lilan looked surprised. She knew something about tennis and knew how badly Minerva Glass's performance was.

Although her opponent Wang Haili is also a world-class tennis player, it was clear that Miniba made serious mistakes in several of her shots, not because of her opponent's superb skills.

And anyone present could see that Miniba's desire to attack didn't seem to be very strong, and she was just passively defending.

While playing the key defensive ball, he made a mistake.

"Minerva..."

Minerva's family and friends were sitting in the front row, so it was not convenient for Mao Lilan and others to make any comments and they could only watch silently.

However, at this time Conan hugged his shoulders, and his glasses seemed to be facing the tennis court. In fact, his mind was full of thoughts about the secret code, and he didn't care about what happened on the court at all.

  Almost an hour has passed, and Qin Zhibo still hasn't figured out the code?

Could it be that even he couldn't decipher the code this time?

This is impossible……

There is absolutely no code that Qin Zhibo cannot decipher.

Conan repeatedly gave himself hints in his heart.

The source of this suggestion comes from trust in Qin Zhibo.

After spending such a long time together, he has gradually come to regard Qin Zhibo as a "benchmark for answers."

If I can't find the answer with my own ability, then he can definitely find it...

  But why haven't you called yet?

This Saturday is almost over...

If Hades wanted to commit the crime today, there would be little time left to stop him.

Conan's mind became more and more confused, and the more confused he became, the more he thought, until he wanted to take the initiative to call and ask.

"Sister Xiaolan, I'm going to the bathroom!"

"Ah?" Mao Lilan turned her head and said softly, "Then I will take you with me?"

"No need! I can find the way!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Conan jumped out of his seat and ran towards the aisle of the viewing area.

Soon, he ran from the entrance to the safe passage leading outside.

He turned his head to look at the ticket inspector a few meters behind him, then took out his cell phone and dialed Qin Zhibo's number.

beep--

beep--

beep--

The busy tone on the phone sounded like rumbling bells, echoing for a long time.

……

pain.

it hurts.

It hurts so much...

Stimulated by the pain, Qin Zhibo suddenly opened his eyes.

But when he opened his eyes, he found himself floating in a small boat on the vast ocean.

The sea is not azure blue, but rather turbid and dark like ink.

Looking closely, it turned out that it was not turbidity, but countless ashes floating in the sea like snowflakes.

The ashes flowed along with the ocean currents towards the distant intersection of the sea and the sky.

Gradually, the ashes gathered on that distant line, and a beam of light bloomed in the vast night sky.

At this moment, the cold, drifting ashes seemed to have consciousness.

They converge towards the night sky above, and then scatter like orchids, leaving behind mottled tracks.

Then, the darkness in the sky was illuminated.

Qin Zhibo's eyes were involuntarily attracted by these graceful trajectories, and he looked up at the sky.

I saw that what was hanging in the air was not a complete darkness with nothing in it.

  It's a huge planet hanging over the ocean!

It is brown-red all over, and its bumpy surface looks like a weathered human face.

In the middle of that "human face", a huge eye was looking at Qin Zhibo with an overwhelming aura.

The rumbling sound, like the muffled sound of thunder, stirred Qin Zhibo's heart.

  what is this?

Where is this place?

At this moment, the originally calm sea surface began to move.

In the middle of the sea, a huge vortex quietly bloomed.

In the swirling torrent, a huge dark shadow emerged from the bottom of the vortex. It was as big as a hill, as if it had opened the mouth of the abyss, waiting in the center of the vortex.

In addition to the ashes in the ocean, the small boat that Qin Zhibo was riding on naturally became the object of the vortex.

Qin Zhibo had to paddle hard to avoid falling into the huge mouth at the bottom of the whirlpool.

But even so, he was inevitably sucked in.

The boat and oars fell into the sea, and even he himself was lost in this mysterious sea.

Facing the sea water with a strong fishy smell, Qin Zhibo forced himself to open his eyes again.

This time, he saw a huge shadow.

He also heard the pounding heartbeat, each beat was accompanied by slight vibrations from the ocean currents, solid and powerful.

And this shadow is being nurtured in a huge womb...

hum-

hum-

Qin Zhibo suddenly woke up and opened his eyes again.

He looked around in surprise and found himself lying on the asphalt in the middle of the road.

There were a dozen or so onlookers nearby. A middle-aged man in shorts was squatting next to him, shouting in a genuine London accent.

"Hey!"

"Are you okay? How are you feeling now?"

"Hold on, the ambulance will be here soon..."

Qin Zhibo propped up his upper body with both hands and looked behind him. It was the white car with its front end almost smashed.

correct!

I was in a car accident!

Qin Zhibo suddenly remembered what he had just experienced, so he quickly shouted: "Where are the people in the car? Where are they!"

"people?"

The middle-aged man pointed to the ground not far away, "Are you talking about that woman? She is still in a coma..."

Qin Zhibo looked in the direction of the middle-aged man's finger and saw Mary lying quietly on the asphalt road a few meters away from him, with the few hair tips on her forehead stained red with blood.

Judging from the fact that no body was found at the investigation point, there should be nothing serious going on.

Qin Zhibo just breathed a sigh of relief, but then he remembered that there was another person in the car.

"There's another person!"

"There are others?" The middle-aged man shook his head in confusion. "When I came here, there were only you two in the car?"

At this time, a young man standing nearby said, "I just saw a group of people in black dragging a person out of a car. I think they have already sent him to the hospital?"

  The one in black?

Qin Zhibo's eyes suddenly became clear and he thought about what happened after the car crash.

Vermouth was taken away.

but me……

Got shot!
