I'm in Conan, I'm not a gangster

Chapter 541 Ignoring Teammates Ireland (1st Update)
In the dimly lit ship's corridor, cold water droplets condensed on the metal walls. Hattori Heiji and Kudo Shinichi escorted Kudo Yusaku and Mouri Kogoro, who were disguised as debtors, down the narrow staircase.

The leather shoes made a crisp sound on the metal stairs, which was particularly jarring in the quiet cabin.

"Stop!" A deep voice suddenly came from the shadows.

Two men in black appeared around the corner, their ultraviolet scanners emitting a faint blue light: "Routine check."

Heiji said impatiently, "Seriously? You've come so many times, and you have to check me every time?"

One of the men in black clearly recognized Heiji, and he smiled: "It's just part of the job, please don't take offense."

After scanning Heiji, he turned his scanner on Shinichi's face.

Shinichi could feel his heart racing, but he maintained a calm facade. The scanner's blue light danced across his face, emitting soft beeping sounds.

"Passed." The man in black nodded, indicating that they could bring their people in.

Heiji and Shinichi continued to escort the two down the rusty stairs.

Shinichi lowered his voice: "Dad's amazing, he's learned all of Mom's cooking skills!"

Yuzuru explained in a low voice, "I didn't learn it from your mom, I learned it from my brother."

"Your brother?" Shinichi was taken aback and said in surprise, "When did you get a brother? When did I get an uncle?"

This sudden family secret made him momentarily forget the danger he was in.

"Huh? Didn't I mention this to you before?" Yusaku was also surprised.

"Of course not! Neither Mom nor I knew you had an older brother!" Shinichi said irritably.

Yusaku smiled sheepishly: "Really? I thought I already said that."

He was about to speak when Heiji interrupted, "Alright, that's enough. You guys can talk about it when you get home. We've arrived!"

Yuzaku immediately fell silent.

The lower deck was more spacious than I had imagined, with blinding shadowless lights hanging from the ceiling, illuminating the entire space as if it were daytime.

Two men in black, each carrying a pistol, stood in front of a heavy metal door, the pistols gleaming coldly under the light.

"Hand them over to us." The leader of the men in black stretched out his hand, his voice icy cold and devoid of any emotion.

Heiji and Shinichi exchanged a glance and obediently pushed the "prisoner" forward.

At the very moment of the handover, Yusaku and Kogoro suddenly sprang into action!

Yusaku delivered a precise elbow strike to the throat of one of the men in black, while Kogoro executed a beautiful over-the-shoulder throw, slamming another man in black heavily to the ground.

Shinichi and Heiji immediately stepped forward and dragged the unconscious man in black into a nearby corner.
Yusaku and Kogoro quickly looked around to make sure no one was watching, then immediately followed.

Yusaku and Kogoro Mouri changed into the clothes of the men in black.

"Let's go." Yusaku lowered his voice. Now it was his and Kogoro Mouri's turn to escort Heiji and Shinichi forward.

Behind the metal door lies another world.

The rooms on both sides have been converted into laboratories.

Looking through the transparent glass doors of each laboratory, one can see a human body constantly struggling on each operating table.

Researchers in protective suits injected a clear liquid into the researchers' bodies using syringes.

Some struggled, some resisted, and some had already stopped moving.

"Those bastards." Kogoro Mouri was furious when he thought about how he had also been captured and used as a test subject. He decided to pull out his submachine gun right now and shoot these guys to death.

Upon seeing this, Yusaku grabbed his wrist: "Don't be impulsive! We need to find the mastermind behind this!"

This greatly displeased Kogoro Mouri: "They've already infiltrated, so when are we going to make a move?"

Yuzuka patiently explained, "Let's figure out the situation inside first, so we can make our escape easier later. Besides, as the saying goes, 'to catch a thief, catch the king first,' we have to catch the person in charge, otherwise similar situations will keep happening!"

Seeing this, Kogoro Mouri had no choice but to give up for the time being. However, he still missed the days when he was working with E Shiraishi, when he didn't have to think so much and could just rush in and wreak havoc.

If we kill them all, wouldn't that solve the problem?

Just then, a researcher wearing gold-rimmed glasses came out of the lab and stopped them: "We need fresh samples. Take these two to lab number 7."

Yusaku glanced at Kogoro Mouri, then nodded, and the four of them headed to Laboratory No. 7.

The walls of Laboratory No. 7 were covered with anatomical diagrams, and various medical instruments resembling torture devices were piled up in the corner.

The researcher, adjusting the electrocardiograph machine, said without turning his head, "Secure them to the table."

Just as the assistants stepped forward, Yusaku and Kogoro Mouri exchanged a glance, simultaneously released Shinichi and Heiji, and then took out their submachine guns.

Heiji and Shinichi drew their guns almost simultaneously.

Four handguns instantly took control of the entire room!
Yusaku grabbed an assistant and made him block the observation glass at the door.

He then pointed the gun at the researcher: "Who is conducting this experiment?"

The researcher gave a cold laugh and said, "You won't dare to fire. Once you do, none of you will escape!"

"Oh dear? At a time like this, you're still so arrogant?" Seeing this, Kogoro Mouri decisively attached a silencer and fired a shot at the researcher's thigh.

"Ah—!" The scream was particularly piercing in the confined space.

"It's an organization! The Black Organization!" The researcher instantly became honest, stopped sneering, and readily told everything.

Just as the researcher was giving his account, a thin assistant was seen quietly retreating to a corner, his finger already pressing the red alarm button.

In the office, Ireland was drinking whiskey and cursing. He vowed that after the experiment was over, he would kill all those people to vent his hatred!

At that moment, the alarm sounded, and the wine glass in his hand shattered with a "crack".

"Something happened?" He licked the wine off his hands, a hint of excitement flashing in his eyes.

A group of men in black immediately arrived at Laboratory 7 in Ireland.

As soon as he entered, he was greeted by four dark gun barrels.

Ireland was instantly terrified and turned to run, tumbling awkwardly down the corridor.

Four submachine guns fired simultaneously, leaving a row of bullet holes where he had just been standing.

Ireland leaned against the wall, breathing heavily.

Luckily, he acted quickly; if he had been a beat slower, he would have been dead.

He decisively shouted, "Prepare the grenades!!"

“But sir, there are still our men inside!” one of the subordinates said hesitantly.

Ireland glanced at the other man and said, "There are four submachine guns pointed at the door inside. Go ahead and try to rush in if you dare!"

Upon hearing this, the man in black silently took out a grenade.

After Ireland shouted "One, two, three," he pushed the door open, and the other men in black immediately and accurately threw grenades inside.

The four people in the lab were stunned for a moment, not expecting Ireland to be so ruthless.

They completely disregard their own people!!

"Take cover!" Yusaku shouted, but there was nowhere to hide in the cramped space.

boom!
The shockwave from the explosion sent all four people flying, and the other three were knocked unconscious on the spot, remaining motionless.

Yuzuru still had some consciousness and was struggling to direct his fingers to press the mechanism on the ring when Ireland's leather shoe stomped down hard.

He felt a chill run down his spine; he knew it was all over.
