Conan's Exorcist Detective

Chapter 52 Suzuki Sonoko chooses to play dead
Haruhiko looked through the windshield at the strange man who had suddenly appeared. The headlights shone on his white coat, revealing the unshaven stubble on his face. He must be a researcher here.

But why did he stop me? Did he discover something?
Haruhiko suddenly wanted to step on the accelerator and rush in, but if he did so, all his previous efforts would be in vain. It would be better to wait for the Metropolitan Police Department to arrive and rush in together.

Haruhiko took a deep breath, calmed himself down, and wanted to see the other party's intentions before making any plans.

At this time, the researcher walked to the car window and Haruhiko lowered the glass a little.

"Are you going to the parking lot at the bottom? Give me a ride on the way." The researcher said with a smile.

Haruhiko finally breathed a sigh of relief, it turned out that he just wanted to get a ride and thought he was discovered.

Haruhiko: "Come up."

The researcher opened the car door and sat in the passenger seat.

Haruhiko glanced at the rearview mirror and noticed that the security guards retreated to the main gate after seeing the researcher in the white coat get into the car.

It seemed the crisis was over for now, but what should be done with this guy? If he was found to be unfamiliar with this place, would he be suspected?

Haruhiko drove slowly, watching the road and giving himself time to think.

He suddenly realized that since his ultimate goal was to obtain the location of the garden, then this person next to him would be a breakthrough point. He could try to get some information from him first.

Thinking of this, Haruhiko couldn't help but start looking at the middle-aged researcher, while looking around for a hidden place to park the car.

...

Xiao Cun Gu also noticed that the delivery driver was secretly looking at him, but Xiao Cun Gu didn't think much about it. Maybe he was curious about the people in the research institute.

Xiaocun Gu's mind is now full of the task assigned to him by Professor Kotori, and he feels very uneasy.

It all started a few days ago. After the experiment ended that day, Professor Kotori found him alone and said that he wanted to secretly transport a batch of chemical raw materials and wanted his help.

He had done this kind of thing many times before with Professor Kotori, and made a lot of money by taking advantage of his position.

However, they were all minor incidents before, and the dosage was not large enough to be discovered by the company. They were usually hidden in personal belongings and taken out secretly. The company was still relatively lenient towards these researchers.

But this time, Professor Kotori suddenly said he wanted to do something big.

He also said that if he succeeded this time, he would be able to earn a large sum of money and might not need to work here anymore.

Xiaocun felt a little scared after hearing this. He didn't want to take such a risk. You know, this company can use living people for drug trials privately. It is conceivable how serious the consequences will be once it is discovered.

After Komura refused, Professor Kotori threatened him with evidence of their previous collaboration, threatening to leak the evidence if he didn't participate.

Xiaocun had no choice but to agree, but he was worried these days and couldn't even sleep well. He made several mistakes at work and was severely scolded by his superiors.

But all this should be completely over today, because today is the day he and Professor Kotori agreed to implement the plan.

Xiao Niaoyou would find a way to load the chemical raw materials into the trunk of his car, and he would drive the things out and deliver them to the designated location.

As for why Professor Kotori doesn't transport it himself, it's because the consumables used in the laboratory every day, whether they are applied for or put into storage, must be recorded in a book. If so many consumables are suddenly missing, they will definitely be discovered. Therefore, Professor Kotori's task is to consume these "chemical raw materials" before night falls.

In this way, the materials were used on the surface, but in fact they were secretly transported out of the village.

The plan seemed perfect, but Xiaocun still felt vaguely uneasy.

Why does Professor Takanashi suddenly want to make such a big move?

Xiaocun always felt that there was a big problem here.

He was lost in thought when he suddenly realized that the car had stopped, but not at the entrance to the laboratory on the third underground floor, but in a relatively remote garage.

Xiaocun looked at the driver in confusion: "Did you take the wrong road?"

Haruhiko smiled and took out a short knife he had taken from Yakudo: "I have a few questions for you."

...

After Suzuki Sonoko woke up, she found herself in a room surrounded by metal walls and cold white fluorescent lights hanging from the ceiling.

It was a bit stuffy in here, and the air was filled with the smell of chemicals and a faint smell of blood.

Yuanzi vaguely recalled what happened before. It seemed that the leader of the Yakuza group said he would send her somewhere, and it seemed to be here.

She found herself lying on a cold dissection table, her hands and feet fixed and unable to move, only her head could move slightly. Turning her head, she saw many dissection tables nearby, some empty, some covered with blood-stained white cloths, and a few with people lying on them, but all in a coma.

Could this be the research institute where crazy scientists conduct human experiments?
At this moment, the sliding door of the room was opened, and two people in white coats walked in pushing a metal dissection table. The man on the dissection table had his chest cut open.

Yuanzi was so scared that he quickly closed his eyes and pretended to be dead.

The two men parked the dissection table inside the room, and one of them said, "I didn't expect such a small amount of dosage would be ineffective. The quality of materials these days is really too poor."

Another person said, "That's right, expecting us to produce results quickly with experimental subjects of this level is simply a dream."

"Stop complaining. Which one should I choose next?"

"It's all the same. They can't survive the first round of drugs, and they'll all be dissected in the end."

"Then choose the woman with short hair."

Yuanzi was so scared that she almost screamed.

"Let's choose the fat guy." said another person.

"why?"

"My ex-girlfriend had short hair, and I wanted to keep her for last." The man chuckled.

"You're so perverted."

As the two of them were talking, they pushed the fat man out.

Suzuki Sonoko didn't know whether she should be relieved or scared. Although she had escaped for the time being, from what that person said, it seemed that her fate would be even worse.

Why is my life so miserable? Yuanzi felt sad.

She suddenly thought of Haruhiko again, and remembered how he told her not to be afraid on the phone and that he would definitely come to save her.

But, could he defeat so many people on the other side? Moreover, she was brought to such a hellish place, and he probably wouldn't be able to find her at all, right?
Just as Yuanzi was daydreaming, the door was opened again.

This time she did not hear the sound of the wheels of the dissecting table, but the sound of a person's footsteps slowly approaching.

Sonoko continued to close her eyes, pretending to be unconscious, hoping to avoid the fate of being chosen.

But that person seemed to be running towards her, and the footsteps finally stopped in front of her.

Yuanzi narrowed her eyes slightly and saw from the corner of her eye that there was a man in a white coat standing in front of her, so she decided to pretend to be dead.

But unexpectedly, the other party gently pinched her foot.

Sonoko was shocked and filled with shame. Why did she have to face humiliation even though she was about to die? But in her current state, even if the other party did something even more outrageous, she wouldn't be able to resist, right?

After a pause of a few seconds, the man gently pinched her calf again.

Sonoko wondered: Does this terrible scientist also have this habit?

Eh? Why would you use it?
It seems that Kosaka Haruhiko also has this kind of habit.

Sonoko suddenly thought of a question: if it was Haruhiko, would she be so resistant?
That shouldn't be the case. That guy is a bit annoying, but...

Hey, what's the point of thinking about this now? I'm going to die anyway, and I might even be humiliated before I die...

"How long are you going to pretend to be asleep?" A familiar voice sounded in my ears.

Sonoko opened her eyes and saw an unexpected person standing in front of her. Although he was wearing the same white coat as those crazy scientists, she would never forget that face.

"Haru, Haruhiko." Sonoko's voice trembled, "Why are you here?"

Haruhiko reached out and tucked her messy hair behind her ears, saying softly, "Didn't I say I would come to rescue you?"

After saying this, Suzuki Sonoko's tears suddenly burst out.
