Science Fiction: Starting from Obtaining Sophon

Take thirty deep breaths while performing a stretch, then gently pat all the muscles in your body with your palms for three minutes...

[Congratulations, Mr. Gendagawa, on completing a jog. Your body has reached an excellent state thanks to the run. You can now return home, drink the prescribed amount of water, and recharge your batteries.]

"Heh, drinking water is fine, but you want to replenish your battery? Dream on!"

As someone who holds grudges, he hadn't forgotten the electric shock he'd just suffered.

Zhi Zi couldn't help but curl his lip in his mental world. Humans are like this. They're clearly doing it for his own good, but they can't even accept such a small request as charging. How stingy!

"Mr. Gendagawa, this is all for the sake of your training results. The electric shock just now was also for your physical health. Otherwise, with your current physical condition, you wouldn't be able to run five kilometers."

Furthermore, in an emergency, I can use a strong electric current to stimulate acupoints all over your body, temporarily enhancing your strength. This city isn't exactly peaceful, you know… Ah, lie down!!

Before Zhizi could finish speaking, a surge of electricity coursed through his body, but this time, the effect of the current was completely different from that of the previous ones.

All the muscles in my body were subjected to a violent impact, and suddenly they all tightened up like rubber bands.

He even felt the muscles in his face twist in an instant.

“XXXX…”

He couldn't help but utter a string of traditional Chinese phrases, but the muscles in his tongue were so tense that he couldn't speak for a moment.

However, at that moment, his mind was exceptionally clear. This move was based on the same principle as Conan's shoes—directly using electrical stimulation to enhance strength.

But this is full-body electrotherapy, who can withstand that!

The reason why Professor Agasa only gave Conan one of these shoes, instead of making a vest or clothes that could stimulate the whole body, is actually because of this.

That level of stimulation was already the limit that this genius scientist could achieve.

Any more and Conan would have turned into a charred, dried-up corpse.

However, Tomoko was clearly far superior to her opponent, as she was able to perform full-body electrotherapy.

At this moment, Genda River was in no mood to think about these things. All he wanted to do was curse, but he still listened subconsciously and then lay down.

The next instant, a bullet grazed his scalp, and because of the electric current, all his senses were amplified. He could even feel the burning sensation from the gunpowder at the end of the bullet.

"boom!!"

The warhead struck the ground, sending sparks flying.

What? Bullets! Are you kidding me? This is the street, not the Free Federation. We don't need gunfights every day, do we?

At that moment, a commotion broke out.

"Run! That filthy cop is really chasing us!"

Not far away, two men wearing hoods that only revealed their eyes ran towards them. One of them was carrying a large bag and running with his head down, while the other was holding a gun with both hands and firing back continuously.

"Damn it, it's like a persistent ghost!"

Not far behind the two men, a large number of police officers were chasing after them. Clearly, the bullets that had just been fired were the result of the gunfight between the two sides.

In truth, it was the two robbers who were unlucky.

According to their plan, they were supposed to acquire a large amount of gold jewelry and a large sum of cash from the jewelry store within three minutes.

Today is the gold shop's monthly reconciliation day. After the reconciliation is completed and confirmed to be correct, the cash will be transported away by a special escort vehicle half an hour later, at 2:30 pm.

And the two of them saw this opportunity.

They planned to seize all the gold and cash while the armored truck was still waiting for the delivery truck and the jewelry store was verifying the documents.

After all, a gold shop doesn't actually have that much gold jewelry; a small bag can easily fill it.

Moreover, jewelry is difficult to liquidate, and the process of liquidating it carries significant risks. If a large amount of cash is also stolen, it can be used immediately. By the time the cash is used up, it will be too late, and the jewelry can be sold off as stolen goods.

This can be described as killing two birds with one stone.

More importantly, the cash in a gold shop and the cash in a bank are completely different.

Bank cash often has consecutive serial numbers, so there's a risk of it being found if you take it out to spend. But the money in a jewelry store is different; it's all money customers use to buy jewelry, so it's very disorganized.

Even if the police investigate afterward, it will inevitably be in vain.

The two men's plan was extremely meticulous, from cutting the telephone line and the dedicated alarm circuit, to taking control of the entire jewelry store, and then retreating within minutes.

Then there are the alternative routes, and even backup routes and multiple modes of transportation are prepared so that multiple routes can be changed in a short period of time.

However, no matter how good the plan is, it still needs the right timing and location. These two guys obviously didn't check the almanac before they went out.

The two had just rushed into the jewelry store when they encountered an unexpected situation: there were several police officers among the customers. And this was only the beginning of their bad luck!

I need your support! I need everything!

Chapter Seven is all about unlucky guys

Police officers went to a jewelry store together?

The probability is extremely small, but even a small probability, once it happens, it happens, and that's 100%.

What followed was naturally a battle of wits between the police and the robbers.

The robbers stole the gold and silver jewelry and money, tied everyone up, and then left in a haughty manner.

But then an unexpected event occurred: a large number of police officers arrived at the scene.

The reason was simple: the jewelry store was large and there were only two robbers. The police officers reacted quickly. After discovering that someone was robbing someone, one of them immediately sent a text message to alert the police, and then hid the cell phone in a corner.

They also tried to buy some time, hoping to delay until the main force arrived.

An even worse problem followed: there were patrol cars nearby, so they arrived in just five minutes after receiving the report.

So the robbers had just stepped out of the jewelry store when they ran into the police. They originally intended to return to the jewelry store and use the customers as hostages.

However, by this time, the police inside the jewelry store had already closed the main door from the inside and pulled down the roller shutter, completely cutting off the robbers' escape route.

So after firing a few shots haphazardly, the two got into their prepared vehicle, a Harley-Davidson motorcycle, and began their retreat along the pre-planned route.

However, their bad luck was not over yet, and it wasn't even the beginning.

On a small road where the two were retreating by motorcycle, there were a lot of nails and broken glass, which caused the motorcycle tire to blow out.

As criminals, the two immediately realized that it must have been done by a nearby auto repair shop. They deliberately punctured the tires so that the driver would have no choice but to get their car repaired at their shop, allowing them to rip the driver off.

After all, you can't possibly push the cart home, can you?

However, the unscrupulous car dealership was also unlucky today, as it ran into two robbers. Without saying a word, the robbers abandoned their motorcycles, quickly found the dealership, stole a car, and ran away. They even took the opportunity to fire several shots, totaling all of the dealership's vehicles.

However, the car broke down again less than 30 miles later. The reason was simple: the repair shop was unscrupulous, so why would they use good parts?

They definitely pass off inferior goods as superior ones, and old goods as new ones. They might even replace the good parts in other people's cars with old parts, and then refurbish the original good parts in other people's cars, so that they can be sold as original imported high-end parts at an expensive price to some knowledgeable people.

This kind of thing is not uncommon in any country.

But right now, they've encountered robbers.

The problem is that normally when people encounter this situation, at worst their car breaks down, and it's not a serious matter.

But the two of them are trying to escape for their lives, what kind of behavior is this?!

So the two had no choice but to abandon the car and leave. They then each stole a motorcycle and began a high-speed chase, a true testament to speed and passion.

However, one of the two was not a very good driver.

That makes sense, really. If he were a good driver, he wouldn't have only prepared one motorcycle before. The reason he robbed two was not only because he happened to have two, but more importantly, the Harley-Davidson was a very large motorcycle, big enough to carry two people and valuables.

However, both motorcycles were small motorcycles. If they rode only one, they would be short of money, so they had to rob both.

The result was that the driver, who lacked driving skills, overturned his car during the police chase. If it weren't for the helmet, he would have become a vegetable on the spot.

So, in order to rescue his companion, the guy in front had no choice but to go back and save him. Under the pressure of the two people, a large amount of gold and silver jewelry, and cash, the old motorcycle was prematurely scrapped.

So the two had no choice but to run away again, which led to the scene described earlier.

The bullet grazed Gendagawa's scalp and passed right by his head. Gendagawa was stunned by the electric shock and collapsed to the ground due to muscle spasms after dodging the bullet.

Then, gloriously, he became a hostage in the hands of the robbers, the cold muzzle of a gun pressed against his temple, making him tremble all over.

"Don't come any closer! If you dare to come any closer, I'll blow his head off!"

"You must remain calm and not act impulsively. We can agree to your demands, but please do not harm the hostages!"

The above is the conversation between the robber and the police. At this moment, Genda River felt as if a million alpacas were galloping over his head.

Did I forget to check the almanac before going out today?

However, it's also possible that there's a certain resonance among the unlucky ones; perhaps three unlucky ones meeting together will combine into a two-star unlucky one.

The police were also in a difficult position. These two guys were incredibly fast, running almost all the way from the city center to the suburbs, and even taking hostages. If this situation wasn't handled properly and resulted in the death of the hostages, it would cause a lot of panic and negative public opinion.

These are things the Metropolitan Police Department is unwilling to accept, thought the leading fat officer.

"From now on, all of you police officers, do as I say right now. First, prepare a car with a full tank of gas and get it to me within three minutes. Don't try anything funny, or I'll blow this fatso's head off!"

He then kicked Genda River hard, his eyes filled with disgust.

This fatso is tall and fat, clearly a bloated and greasy guy, and he looks like he just finished exercising. It's hilarious.

Genda Kawa almost lost his composure. This bastard suddenly kicked him. What a lunatic! He'd already been behaving himself, hadn't he?

The police were somewhat helpless at this point, and had no good solution in the short term. They could only temporarily calm the robbers down and then put them in a car.
