Chapter 122: The Laboratory (Medium)

"Hey, hey?"

With a shrill click, the voice on the other end of the phone turned into an annoying radio sound.

"This bastard, hang up on me if you talk to yourself!"

Conan plucked the earring phone from his ear and said through gritted teeth. Although I know that that guy may really have something to do, no matter who it is, it is inevitable that he will be a little unhappy when he is hung up on the phone twice in three days.

"Forget it, no matter what he wants, he can toss as much as he likes......"

Sighing helplessly, Conan couldn't help but put the headphones in his pocket, and then got up and went to the bathroom to get a towel to wipe his crying face.

He didn't bother to care what Hawk was doing now. To be precise, you can't manage it if you want to.

Moreover, although he was very reluctant to admit it, but being by Eagle Arrow, Rice Flower City has indeed been much safer recently. In addition to the long-planned murders, there is a lot less news about thefts, robberies, and gang fights.

Therefore, in terms of results, such a "chivalrous action" has indeed reduced the crime rate in Rice Flower City to a certain extent. But, as the word suggests, only to a certain extent.

This is like setting a wildfire, and although it can burn all the weeds called "crime", there is no way to eradicate the root of evil buried in the ground, and more will emerge as soon as the spring breeze blows.

So, even now, he still doesn't approve of Hawkya's approach. It's just that he doesn't have the ability to stop him right now.

Perhaps as he said, existence is reasonable. Maybe the current Rice Flower Town really needs such a knight, right?

Just as Conan was thinking this, the door to the living room was violently kicked open, and the towel in his hand almost fell to the ground in fright.

"Xiaolan! Xiaolan! Come out and see that! I won the lottery! I won the lottery!"

When Conan came out of the bathroom, he saw Maori's eyes as red as a bull and the golden lottery ticket in his hand.

"Huh, you won?"

Xiaolan, who was cooking, heard Maori's passionate voice, wiped her hands and walked out of the kitchen with a little surprise.

You know, Maori's luck has always been not very good, he bought half a lifetime of running horses, and he ran into half a car, but he didn't even see a wheel, so you can imagine how lucky he was. And it's such a gross profit that actually won the lottery?

"Yes, I finished buying cigarettes in the shopping street today, and when I was shaking the wheel lottery, I shook it casually and actually shook out the golden beans! Sure enough, Lady Luck has been favoring me, the famous detective Maori Kogoro, pinch hahahahaha!"

Maori's face was marked with lewdness, her tongue jumping like a spring, and her smile was unbridled.

"Eh, let me see," Xiaolan couldn't help but take the lottery ticket from Maori's hand curiously, "Two days and two nights, let's experience the island to the fullest...... Wow, that looks pretty good!"

"Of course, that's what Detective Mori Kogoro drew after all!

"Eh, wait...... Dad, what did you just say you were going to buy in the shopping street?"

Xiaolan seemed to suddenly think of something, and her face instantly became a little unkind.

"Gah!" The debauched laughter suddenly froze, and Maori's smile instantly froze on his face.

"Didn't you just buy it a few days ago...... You're secretly hiding your cigarette again, aren't you?"

"That, Xiaolan, listen to meβ€”ah!"

====================================================================

"Click!"

With a soft sound, the iron fence of the vent was snapped down by the eagle.

What appeared in front of him was a somewhat filthy ventilation duct that could only accommodate one adult.

"Looks like this pipe is older than I thought......"

The ventilation ducts in front of me, though not rusty, were covered with dust and even some cobwebs, apparently some years old.

If he just crawled through this ventilation duct, then the white research gown on his body would probably turn gray directly.

Luckily, Takaya is accustomed to being fully prepared before going out.

Placing the iron fence on the side, Takaya took off his white coat, then turned the inside out and put it on his body again.

Contrary to the snow-white appearance, this lining is gray-black, and it is made of a special material, with a smooth surface, low friction, and is not easy to produce static electricity to absorb dust.

And in the back, close to the back, there is a slim hood that prevents the hair and face from being stained with dust.

"I'm in, Uncle De. ”

Zipping up his clothes and putting on his hood, Takaya shone the light of his watch inside, and crawled into the ventilation ducts.

The pipeline is actually not long, just like Uncle De told him before, after crawling for about five or six meters, it will come to an end.

Through the cracks in the iron fence, Takaya saw a dense mass of entangled wires and several terminal converters.

"This is it......"

Eagle Arrow grabbed it through the gap in the iron fence with one hand, and at the same time clenched the other hand into a fist and smashed it into the corner of the iron fence.

"Bang!"

"Click!"

With a crisp sound like a screw breaking, the corner of the iron fence twisted and deformed, but it was not completely detached.

"Bang!"

With another hard punch, the iron fence let out a wail, and finally obediently fell off the wall and sucked in.

"Alright, it's time for the Fault Game. ”

Breaking the iron fence, the eagle crawled out of the ventilation duct and landed on the load-bearing platform in front of the pipe, so to speak.

In front of him there were several line transfer stations, on which were inserted a variety of lines, flashing with sparkling lights.

In order to prevent data damage due to sudden power failure, all data lines have their own backup power supply, even if the main power supply is cut off, it can still be transmitted and stored normally for more than half an hour until the backup power generation device is started.

"I'm afraid you don't have that much time to find the young master, the countdown shows that you still have two minutes to go...... Well, it's one minute and fifty-nine seconds......" Looking at the countdown displayed on the screen, Uncle De couldn't help but kindly remind the eagle arrow.

"In fact, I've found it. ”

Eagle looked at the transfer stations with the light of his watch, and instantly made out which one he was looking for. He couldn't help but stand up straight, shake the dust off his body, and then unzipped the inside, reaching out and pressing it on the metal plate of his belt.

"Click!" the metal plate of the belt opened like a box, revealing a small black device hidden inside.

It was a small cracking device that, if installed on a data converter, could hack into the lab's data system, allowing Eagle to bypass the lab's account verification and create a new ghost account to access the lab's main server.

"I've got it done here, Uncle De. After installing the cracker on the adapter station and turning on the switch, after confirming that it could receive the data normally, Eagle Arrow couldn't help but say to Uncle De on the other end through the microphone, "Make sure the cracker is running." ”

"The cracker is working properly and is gaining permissions...... Well, then again, young master, it's time for you to go back, there is only one minute and twenty seconds left. ”

In fact, without Uncle De's reminder, Eagle Arrow had already put on his clothes again and burrowed back into the ventilation duct.

After all, the five-minute power restart time is only a set theoretical value, and it is only an approximate time based on the usual reaction. If the security personnel of the laboratory were to knock the chicken blood today, and it would be done in four minutes, wouldn't he be blind?

And the fact happened to be just as he thought, when he jumped back into the elevator from the maintenance port of the elevator and shook off the dust on his body, with a long warning sound, the power supply in the elevator was reconnected!

In the next second, the lights came back on, and the surveillance equipment began to function again, just enough for Eagle Arrow to put the research suit back on.

"Hoo ......"

Feeling the elevator restarting, Takaya tugged at his collar slightly, letting out a long sigh of relief.

Luckily, it caught up with ......

"Ding-dong. ”

With a crisp sound, the elevator door opened, and the guards who had been waiting outside the door couldn't help but immediately surround them.

"Dr. Sawada, are you alright?"

The tension on their faces was not a fake, because the difference in worth was there. Unlike these low-level personnel, these masters are the pillars of this laboratory, if something happens, then they will not be as simple as rolling up and leaving.

However, contrary to their eagerness, Takaya still nodded indifferently, and then strode forward on his own.

"Tsk, it's amazing to have knowledge......"

It wasn't until the back disappeared that the smiles on the guards' faces slowly stiffened and turned into a soft mutter.

"Okay, be quiet, don't you want to mix up here! Let people hear that you will die!" Another guard, who looked a little older, patted the little guard on the head and said angrily, "Don't say it, knowledge is great! If you can grow up, you can wear a research uniform instead of a guard uniform now! And people nodded at you today, which is already good!"

"Hmph, if I didn't have a good parent, I'm sure I'...... by now"

"Sure to be a fart! With your lazy and cowardly virtue, it's useless for you to reincarnate!

"Oh......"

Ignoring the noisy shoving and shoving of the guards over there, Takaya, disguised as Dr. Sawada, had already passed through the two gates of the quarantine area and walked to the door of his "own" research office according to Uncle Toku's instructions.

"Young master, the structural diagram shows that this door should be installed with a fingerprint lock, and I hope you haven't forgotten to take his fingerprints. ”

"Sometimes I think you can put the extra heart back in your stomach and help you live a long and healthy life, Uncle De. ”

Saying this, Eagle Arrow couldn't help but press his index finger directly on the fingerprint scanner at the door.

A green light swept by, accompanied by a clear beep, the indicator light on the fingerprint lock changed from red to green, and the door opened.

"As I said, I'm used to being ready for anything. ”

Takaya smiled and walked straight into the office.

As he says, before each operation, he makes a detailed plan beforehand, taking into account all possible contingencies, and preparing everything that may need to be prepared.

Therefore, in order not to leave his fingerprints to expose his identity, and in order to deal with the possibility of using the other party's fingerprints and other things, Eagle Ya used an instrument to secretly collect various fingerprints left by him in various places when he was tracking and investigating the life and rest of Masao Sawada during his skipping class, and finally pieced together two complete palm prints, and made a film glove to put on his hands.

Therefore, on the button of the elevator or the scanner of the door, all that was left was Masao Sawada's fingerprints.

"Uncle De, has the ghost account been established?"

Turning on the computer and sitting in the chair that looked like it was some years old, Eagleya couldn't help but raise his hand to look at his watch.

Even if the journey was smooth, it had already taken nearly twenty minutes to go back and forth, and there were still about forty minutes before the anesthetic wore off. It may sound like a lot of leeway, but everyone has a different tolerance for anesthetics, and in fact there is not that much time.

After all, not everyone is a Mori Kogoro......

"Well, wait a minute...... Now that you've set up your master, the program shows that you can now access the server directly. ”

The old butler pushed his glasses, pulled out the keyboard and entered a string of characters in the program interface, and then hit the enter key.

The ghost account created by Uncle De is an account with an empty username and password. Although the username is empty, there is a newly created account named "empty", so Eagle Arrow doesn't need to enter anything, just click the login button directly in the security interface, and you can log in to the main server with the highest privilege through this ghost account, bypassing all decryption steps.

"Okay, let's find out what clues are left......"

With that, Takaya couldn't help but pull over the keyboard on the table, brought up the search interface, searched the database for all the strings related to "Okita Return", "Poison Dart Frog", and "Accident", and began to sift.

"The previous file doesn't look like anything out of the ordinary......"

Eagle quickly glanced at all the files that Okita had left in the laboratory database, and they all looked normal. He is punctual at work, active and responsible, and has published several authoritative papers.

But why did such a person become a vicious poison dart frog with no bottom line?

"Sure enough, it all started in that accident?"

Hawk couldn't help but move his mouse and clicked on the red label of the string called "Accident".

Then, the large list that popped up made Eagle Ya frown slightly.

In addition to the accident in Okita's return, there seem to have been several other accidents in this Surprise Biology Laboratory. However, in all the news and reports related to Marvel's Biotech Laboratory, Eagle Arrow didn't seem to mention these accidents......

Is it hidden? Like Okita's accident?

Although I really wanted to find out, it was obviously not a good time now, so Takaya paused slightly, but still opened Okita's file.

There is a video file under the branching tree, and a series of pictures and text files that look like records of his treatment.

Eagle frowned slightly, then clicked on the video file.

It was a surveillance camera shot from the lab, and Okita was not a disgusting and ugly frogman, but just a somewhat unkempt-looking researcher. It's just that his tragedy began when the video was recorded.

It was a viewing platform made of tempered glass, on which Okita squatted, observing the creatures beneath his feet.

According to the description on the data, it is an artificial creature cultivated by the Marvel Bio Laboratory by combining the genes of various creatures, some very dangerous super poison dart frogs. It also contains some poisonous insects and other things as food for poison dart frogs, and even blocks creatures such as poisonous snakes and poisonous lizards as risk factors and natural predators, which are used to test the survivability and evolutionary characteristics of these super poison dart frogs.

This creepy-sounding experiment is the source of all his tragedies.

Ironically, the person who presided over the project was none other than Okita himself.

However, just as the second uncle told him, the glass platform suddenly shattered, and Okita Hui fell straight into the cultivation tank of the highly poisonous creature. Although the response of the laboratory was very fast, and he was rescued in less than two minutes, Okita Kai was already highly poisoned and in danger at that time.

Thankfully, he was barely conscious, because no one knew more about these poisonous creatures than he did.

So, with the idea of a dead horse being a live horse doctor, he injected all the antivenoms of all the kinds he had made before.

Lady Luck did favor him, and this crazy approach really made him miraculously survive when he was bound to die.

However, when he was alive, his body also underwent very incredible and creepy changes......

Takaya flipped through the follow-up treatment records in the laboratory, as well as the photos attached to the back of Okita's gradually changing appearance.

This is really not a pleasing photo, watching a person become an ugly monster alive, such a cruel and scalp-numbing photo, so that even Eagleya, who has seen countless terrifying things, can't help frowning slightly.

If it had been at that time, Takaya might have sympathized with him. But now, not anymore.

Because now he has become a terrible monster not only on the outside, but also on the inside......

Eagle Ya glanced at the numerous files behind him, then glanced at the time, frowned slightly, and then took out a small memory from the dark compartment of his belt, plugged in the computer's interface, and prepared to download these files back and check them in detail.

"Eh, young master, I'm afraid I have not very good news for you......"

At this time, Uncle De's voice suddenly came into his ears, making him pause slightly as he was entering the download code.

"What's wrong?"

"Old man can see from the camera that someone is walking towards your office. ”

"What? How long?"

Looking at the progress bar that was beginning to stretch, Takaya couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.

"Huh, aren't you going back?"

Just as Eagle Ya finished speaking, a voice suddenly came from the door, and he couldn't help but raise his head and look in the direction of the door.

"Eh, young master...... He's already there,......" Uncle De's voice came slowly from the earphones.

[!I've seen it!]
