Chapter 520 [The title is the shape of love for you]
"I placed several bombs in the main venue of the Red Castle Restaurant downstairs, and made some linkage measures. Once the main venue of the Red Castle Restaurant downstairs explodes, the elevators in the entire building will explode. And after that, at regular intervals, the floors below will explode one after another."
Chu Ming shook the black shielding device in his hand, took out an ant-sized microchip from it, and stuffed it into a capsule. He suddenly stepped forward, pinched Conan's cheek, stuffed the capsule into Conan's mouth, pinched his jaw and poured some water into it.
After confirming that Conan swallowed it uncontrollably, Chu Ming smiled contemptuously: "And this is the bomb shield. As long as this shield is still within range, all bombs will not receive the explosion signal - whether it is the bomb in the restaurant or the bomb on your girlfriend."
"In two minutes, I will rewrite the program of the shielding device and remove the shielding of your girlfriend's bracelet positioning system. You must escort your girlfriend and her group back to the amusement park within these twenty minutes to prevent them from being blown into fireworks; however, once you leave this building, the bomb in the building will explode, and the others who remain in the building will die~"
"Should you protect the lives of the people you care about and send them to the amusement park safely? Or should you stay in the building and watch your loved ones explode into fireworks, but save the lives of the vast majority of innocent people~"
"Of course, you can also try to remove the bracelets I reinforced on the six people within 20 minutes. Maybe you can do it~"
After explaining the rules, Chu Ming pointed to his own eyes and said, "I will keep my eyes on you, Detective. I hope your next performance will not disappoint me."
Then he turned to Vermouth and said with a half-smile: "Although I suggest you go with me, it seems that you want to stay with them more?"
"How is that possible?" Vermouth chuckled and glanced at Conan with complicated eyes, "But I still have something else to do, Granburch, you go first, don't worry, I won't break your rules."
"What is it? Helping?"
"Of course not, it's a secret." Vermouth put her finger on her red lips, "A secret makes a ——"
"Okay, okay, I get it. You can handle it yourself." Chu Ming was speechless. He stopped caring about Vermouth and left. Nothing would happen anyway. He had his robot to support him here.
And just in that short moment, Conan had already provided him with a large amount of points.
Watching Chu Ming leave, Conan's face looked extremely ugly. He tried to reach out to dig into his throat to see if he could spit out the capsule that Chu Ming had just forced to feed him, but after digging for a long time, it was of no use.
Seeing the time passing by, Vermouth looked at him doing useless work, her face solemn, and stopped him: "Stop it, let's go, let's send Xiaolan and the others back to the amusement park first, and then let the person who just defuse the bomb for you help them remove the bracelet-"
"No, I can't leave!" Conan looked painful, but his face was still serious. "I can't leave here. Today, the Red Castle Restaurant has more than 100,000 customers, and at least half of them are still stranded inside. Once I leave, these tens of thousands of Japanese people will--"
"It's already this time and you still have the mind to care about others? What about Xiaolan?" Vermouth was angry. She stepped forward and tried to use force. After all, he was just a human shielding device, and even if he was knocked unconscious, it would be enough to carry him by her side.
Conan took two steps back, frowning: "-Even if we want to leave, it's not now..."
"Then when? When the bracelet on Xiaolan's hand explodes!" Vermouth's face changed, and her anger reached an unprecedented level.
Conan knew he couldn't delay any longer. He looked at Hattori and Kidd behind him and said solemnly, "Listen to me. We only have 20 minutes now. I can't leave here for the time being... Hattori, notify Officer Megure and the others to come over and evacuate the crowd as quickly as possible. Especially those above the 15th floor must be evacuated quickly. From what Granburch said, even if the bomb explodes, it will explode from top to bottom, and there will be a certain amount of time in between."
"Okay." Hattori made a prompt decision, turned around and took the elevator down. Kazuha was also among the group of people. He was also very anxious, but the sense of justice in his heart still drove him to do what he should do first.
"Kid, take this gentleman downstairs to find Xiaolan and the others later. I'll also trouble this gentleman to help them remove the bracelets. Please remove as many as you can. Come over to me while you're removing them..."
"Then - there's no time to open it..." Kidd was a little confused. He couldn't leave this multiple-choice question to him...
Vermouth took advantage of the opportunity and said, "Give it to Xiaolan first—"
"No——" Conan's fingertips trembled, "You dismantle others first, and leave Xiaolan for last... I will accompany her, I will find a way..."
Conan's last few words were close to whispers. He was in pain, but there was no way out. He had no choice. If there was really no other way, he chose to stay with Xiaolan...
"Then I'll go..." Kidd couldn't bear to see Conan make such a painful decision, but he thought that with the puppet given by the Demon King as a backup, nothing big should go wrong. At least Xiaolan's life could be saved, right?
However, he couldn't tell Conan about this matter in detail. As long as the person was fine, he didn't waste any more words with Conan. He turned around and went downstairs directly. When he left, he did not forget to drag away the robot that was standing there like a piece of wood.
“How dare you—!” Vermouth’s eyes were bloodshot and she reached out to grab Conan. She simply could not accept that her angel had suffered even the slightest harm, and she could not bear to see her light disappear from the world.
"Listen to me. I'll stay here. This jammer can block the signal from downstairs, so the height of the building is probably its shielding range. The main venue of the restaurant is on the 15th floor, and we are on the top floor now, so I estimated that the shielding radius of this jammer should be about 10 meters."
Conan gestured with his hand, pointing to the living room where the client had met him before, and continued: "There is an extended terrace on the balcony of the top floor lobby. A little further out is the scope of the fantasy park. I'm on the top floor trying to find a way to locate them within the park without going downstairs..."
Vermouth also calmed down a little. She looked at Conan deeply and said, "If you and Xiaolan die, I will definitely send Shirley down to accompany you."
"Don't worry, I will try my best to keep us all alive." Conan forced an ugly smile.
"So what do you need me to do now?" Vermouth did not continue the topic.
"No more. You should leave here quickly, otherwise it will be difficult for you to explain if Granburch finds out. Wait..." Conan shook his head, thought for a moment, and suddenly added, pointing to the secret room they came out of, "How about you take Ito Suehiko with you as well..."
Belmode: "..."
Seeing Vermouth carrying the corpse-like Ito Suehiko and leaving in the elevator, he turned and ran towards the house where the client had met them before.
I don’t know if twenty minutes will be enough…
Xiaolan, believe me! I will definitely take you away safely!
