【Conan】I just want to survive but I am forced to join the main plot
Chapter 504 Conflict
"Damn it, what on earth is going on?"
Kogoro Mouri pounded the steering wheel angrily, looked at the crowded crowd in front of him, and honked the horn impatiently.
The car was rented, of course.
After learning that Hades was very likely to carry out an explosion at Wimbledon Stadium today, Kogoro Mori rented a car early this morning and took Shinichi Kudo and Ran with him, and the group rushed to the stadium in a hurry.
Unexpectedly, I encountered a huge traffic jam in London.
In several blocks near the hospital, pedestrians and vehicles were jammed, blocking several roads around the hospital.
Kudo Shinichi and others sat in the car, observing the surrounding situation through the glass.
Almost everyone heading towards the hospital was scratching some part of their body. Several people even had their arms scratched but did not stop their rough movements.
When people are not feeling well, their temper will obviously not be very good.
Many people have lost their last bit of patience due to the extremely congested roads and the unbearable itching on their bodies. They have gradually come into verbal conflicts with the people around them, and as time goes on, there is a tendency for these conflicts to develop into physical conflicts.
The atmosphere among the crowd became increasingly tense.
Xiaolan looked at the crowd outside the car window worriedly. For a moment, she felt as if she was in a huge powder keg.
Just the slightest spark and the powder keg would explode, and the flames would spread to every corner of London.
Seeing that the car couldn't move forward at all, Kudo Shinichi pulled Xiaolan out of the car and ran towards the tennis court.
Kogoro Mori looked at the backs of the two young men, his brows furrowed as if they could pinch a fly to death.
The car was rented, and besides him, there was also Dr. Agasa in the car. However, the doctor's physical condition obviously could not support him to run all the way to Wimbledon Stadium. Kogoro Mori could only patiently drive the car at a snail's pace away from the congested road.
"PhD."
"Don't you think that this situation is more like... a plague than an infectious disease?"
Dr. Agasa also showed a worried expression. He looked at the crowd outside the window, his mustache trembling, and said nothing.
Seeing that Dr. Agasa did not answer, Kogoro Mori's expression became even more solemn.
"What do you think would happen if the criminal named Hades indiscriminately shot at the crowd or simply detonated a bomb in the crowd?"
Dr. Agasa:! ! !
Although the crime scene that was finally solved according to the puzzle given by the other party was Wimbledon Tennis Court, but... is it possible that this was just a cover used by the criminal to attract Scotland Yard?
Maori Kogoro intuitively thought that this inexplicable epidemic came too coincidentally. After hesitating for a moment, he suddenly turned to Dr. Agasa and said, "Doctor, you drive to chase Detective Boy and Xiaolan, I will stay here to see the situation.
Also, remember to help me warn the detective boy, he can solve the case, but if he dares to let Xiaolan get hurt, I will beat him to death!"
After saying that, without waiting for Dr. Agasa to react, Kogoro Mori hurriedly got off the car and went against the crowd to check the location where he thought there might be hidden dangers.
At the same time, in the closed and deserted British Museum, Wakaki Ryo looked at Kudo Shinichi's live broadcast room and touched his chin thoughtfully.
I have to say that Kogoro Mori is still something.
He did plant something nearby, but it wasn't a bomb.
On the other side, Kudo Shinichi tightly held Xiaolan's hand, squeezed through the crowd, and ran towards the Wimbledon Tennis Stadium. However, because the crowd around him was too dense, Kudo Shinichi's vision was blocked, and when he rushed around a corner, he bumped into another person head-on.
"Ouch."
With a bang, Kudo Shinichi covered his chest, took two steps back in pain, and almost fell into Xiaolan's arms.
Opposite him, a middle-aged man with a camera around his neck fell to the ground due to the interaction of forces, and the documents in his backpack scattered all over the floor.
Xiaolan worriedly went forward to support Kudo. The middle-aged man on the ground didn't care about himself at all, and immediately held his precious camera and carefully checked it.
"Are you okay boy?"
After confirming that the camera was intact, the middle-aged man rubbed the painful part of his body with a grimace, and struggled to get up to pick up the scattered documents, while not forgetting to care about Kudo Shinichi.
"It's okay, it's okay. Sorry, we were in a hurry to get to Wimbledon and didn't notice you."
Kudo Shinichi and Xiaolan looked at each other, then squatted down and gathered the documents scattered by the middle-aged man. When he returned them to the middle-aged man, he inadvertently glanced and saw the photos attached to the documents.
"This is……"
Looking at the exquisite little knight doll in the photo, an idea seemed to flash quickly through Shinichi Kudo's mind, but he couldn't catch it at the first time.
He shook his head and gave up the idea of investigating further.
Things have their priorities. The most important thing now is to bring this cruel criminal to justice before Hades commits a crime.
"Oh, this. Have you paid attention to the previous news? The British Museum received a challenge from a lousy thief. The thief sent a letter to the museum, saying that he wanted to steal a certain artifact in the museum, and even challenged Kaito Kidd from a distance."
Xiaolan thought about it and realized that when she was waiting for Kudo Shinichi and the doctor at the airport, she seemed to have seen such news.
“But the guy who sent the challenge letter is a clown. He sent a different challenge letter every day for four consecutive days, but inside the museum, not to mention the stolen cultural relics, not even a single potted plant was missing.
I stayed there for several days, hoping there would be some big news."
The middle-aged man complained to himself, carefully put the camera on his back, turned around to look at Kudo Shinichi and Xiaolan, and briefly introduced himself.
“My name is John and I’m a journalist.
By the way, you just said you were going to Wimbledon, right? Let's go together. It's just in time for the women's singles final, and if we can get an exclusive interview with the queen of grass courts, this issue will definitely sell well."
Facing the middle-aged uncle who was very familiar with him, Kudo Shinichi and Xiaolan did not refuse his proposal to go with him. Considering the other party's identity as a reporter, Kudo Shinichi was very skilled in trying to get some useful information from him while hurrying on the road.
"By the way, Uncle John, there's so much traffic around the hospital, is there anything wrong?"
The kind-hearted Xiaolan followed closely behind Kudo Shinichi, looking back at the crowded crowd from time to time, with an unstoppable look of worry on her face.
"Hey."
John sighed and showed an angry and helpless expression.
"It's all that damn Hades!"
"It seems that in the past two days, there has been a large-scale outbreak of this infectious disease with symptoms similar to urticaria in the urban area of London."
"Originally, with London's medical capabilities, it is absolutely capable of dealing with such a situation. After all, judging from the current situation, this infectious disease seems to be a new type of urticaria and is not fatal.
But not long ago, there was a madman, Hades Sabara, who for some reason blew up several hospitals in succession, causing a large number of casualties among medical staff, resulting in the current shortage of medical resources in London.
The only large hospitals that can still maintain operations and accept patients are these two nearby, which is why the situation has become what you see. "
John looked at the crowded crowd with some concern, fearing that a small-scale verbal conflict would eventually turn into an irreversible violent incident.
Although Scotland Yard has assigned some personnel to maintain order, if a conflict really occurs, these few scattered police officers will be overwhelmed by the surging crowd in the first place.
"I hope... nothing will happen."
