Detective Conan: The System Takes Me to Zero's World

Chapter 196 The world will change dramatically: the hospital loses its superconductivity

Liquid nitrogen filled the entire hospital. The cold mist quickly spread and instantly turned into a vast expanse of white. The vision was obscured by the mist and the surrounding situation could not be seen clearly.

A system announcement sounded in the chaos: "Issuing urgent tasks to alleviate the poisoning symptoms of the fainted people."

Kudo Yuki reacted quickly and immediately covered her mouth and nose with her sleeves, "Conan, cover your mouth and nose and keep breathing steady."

Kudo Yuki silently said in her heart: [Sign in.]

"Ding, congratulations to Xiaoxue for signing in successfully today. She received +300 mall points and a poison-reducing physique.

The current mall points are 3100, and the system space contains: 1 barrel of healing potion, anti-risk floating tools, water-relief stone, winery organization status information, and winery base location distribution map. Please continue to sign in every day, Xiaoxue."

"Poison reduction physique has been added to skill attributes."

Conan looked confused, still wondering what this sudden situation was all about.

At this time, the hospital alarm sounded, and the nurses on the first floor were shouting at the top of their lungs to maintain order: "Everyone, please stay calm, don't panic or run around, and evacuate in an orderly manner."

However, everyone had already lost their composure and started knocking on the door.

"The door is closed, someone come and open it."

"Damn it, this door won't open at all."

Mr. John held his forehead with one hand and asked, "Is this aimed at my life?"

The bodyguard murmured, "Don't worry, we will protect you."

"Dad, I'm going to find a way out."

Maori Kogoro stretched out his hand to stop her: "Xiaolan."

But Mao Lilan rushed out directly and accidentally bumped into someone. She was pushed back against the wall by the huge impact force and fainted.

Conan frowned: "Sister Xiaolan!"

Ai Huihara took the opportunity to hold Conan's wrist and said weakly: "Edogawa, this is not an explosion at all, it's a superconducting quench."

"Superconductivity quenched?"

Huibara Ai coughed violently as she spoke: "Sister Xue, take him and run away quickly. If we keep wasting time like this, everyone here will die." After she finished speaking, she could no longer hold on and fainted.

Conan continued to shake Huibara Ai: "Huibara, cheer up."

Mao Lilan opened her eyes with difficulty and said with a weak breath: "Shinichi, run away."

"Ran, are you okay?" Conan ran towards Ran Mouri, lay on the ground unable to move, and muttered to himself: "What happened?" He used up his last bit of strength to call Subaru Okiya.

Then, he fainted.

Although Kudo Yuki had the poison-reducing attribute, she still felt unwell and had some symptoms of poisoning. She endured the discomfort and browsed the points mall to exchange for the poison-reducing elixir.

"Ding, congratulations to Xiaoxue for successfully purchasing the Poison Relief Solution. The points consumed were 600."

She used the system space again, took out all the healing spirit potions, and sprinkled them into the air along with the detoxification spirit liquid, "This may be able to help."

The complexions of the people who fainted in the room gradually improved.

She pushed the door open with difficulty and walked out, breathing heavily in the air as she walked. Every step was difficult.

Half an hour later, the harm of the superconducting quenching phenomenon to the human body was reduced to one third, and everyone would not be in danger of life for the time being.

Okiya Subaru answered the phone: "Hello, what happened? Little brother."

Kudo Yuki picked up Conan's phone and said in a hoarse voice with a slight cough: "Hospital, superconductivity quenched."

"Hold on, I'll be there soon!"

Subaru Okiya hung up the phone, stepped on the accelerator, and planned to go to the hospital to find out what was going on.

However, he had just driven for a distance when he was stopped by Masumi Sera on a motorcycle wearing a black helmet.

Okiya Subaru frowned, "Who is it?"

Without saying a word, Masumi Sera stepped on the accelerator and rode away on his motorcycle.

Shu Shu sat in Okiya Subaru's car, his eyes widened with excitement, looking like he was watching a good show, and he kept muttering, "Chase him, chase him!"

Okiya Subaru turned the steering wheel and drove after him.

Akai Mary was not far from Sera Masumi, and she rode up handsomely and hugged her daughter's waist tightly. She frowned and said in a slightly reproachful tone: "Isn't it embarrassing to be in this state?"

"What can I do? The car suddenly rushed out and I almost hit it. But it doesn't matter, because there is only one road from the airport to the city."

Mary Akai took out the vibrating phone from her daughter's pocket. The screen showed it was Brother Ji. She hung up the call without thinking.

On the other side, Haneda Hideyoshi was happily waiting for the call to be connected, but he didn't expect it to be hung up suddenly. He looked puzzled: "Wow, why did you hang up on me?"

At the hospital, firefighters arrived fully armed. When they saw the people lying on the ground, they were stunned: "What on earth happened?"

Soon, their attention was drawn to Kudo Yuki who was about to faint. An experienced firefighter immediately shouted, "Quick, find a doctor to treat her!"

Maori Kogoro was the first to wake up from his coma, his head still a little dizzy. He shook his head vigorously to wake himself up. When he saw the surrounding scene clearly, his first reaction was to find his daughter: "Xiaolan."

He stumbled over and shook Mao Lilan vigorously. Mao Lilan was still in a daze, muttering, "Shinichi."

"What Shinichi? It's me."

"Dad." Mao Lilan was startled and woke up instantly: "Where are Sister Xue, Conan and Xiao Ai?"

"They haven't woken up yet. I'm going to go check on President John. You go wake up the three of them."

"Conan, Conan." Mao Lilan ran to Conan and shook him gently. Conan sat up suddenly, his eyes still a little confused: "Xiaolan... Sister, are you okay?"

"Well, it seems nothing serious. By the way, Sister Xue is still lying down."

Conan immediately ran to Kudo Yuki who was not far away and called out anxiously: "Old...Sister Xue, wake up."

Kudo Yuki slowly opened her eyes, her eyes still a little weak: "Are you two okay?"

"It's alright."

Maori Kogoro ran over in a hurry, looking anxious: "President John is missing."

Mao Lilan looked puzzled: "Didn't he receive a doctor's examination before us?"

Conan turned on the tracking function of his glasses and whispered in Kudo Yuki's ear: "Sister, the transmitter on Mr. John is still usable."

After Kudo Yuki made an OK gesture, the siblings stood up, and Conan said, "Sister Xiaolan. I'll leave Huibara to you. Sister Yuki, let's go."

"Where are you going?"

"Bathroom." Conan answered casually, and hurried away with Kudo Yuki.

Kudo Yuki thought to herself: [The murderer must have taken President John away when I left to spread the medicine. We must find him as soon as possible.]

Conan held the skateboard, put on the same glasses as his sister, and quickly activated the tracking function with his fingers: "Sister, hold me."

"What?"

Kudo Yuki's eyes were still a little dazed, and it was obvious that the symptoms of poisoning had not completely subsided.

Conan looked at his sister's condition and became more and more anxious, but he still patiently emphasized again: "Sister, there is no time, hurry up and carry me on the skateboard, so that we can track down President John's whereabouts faster!"

Kudo Yuki finally woke up from her dream and shook her head vigorously to wake herself up completely. She activated the acceleration mode of the skateboard.

Conan put the same glasses on Kudo Yuki and took the opportunity to take out his cell phone to call Okiya Subaru.

"Let's go!" Kudo Yuki took a step forward, hugged Conan tightly, and rushed out on her skateboard like a gust of wind.

Okiya Subaru answered the phone, and there was a whirring sound from the other end of the line: "Little brother, how are you doing over there?"

"There was a small incident at the hospital just now."

"People safe is good."

"But Mr. Yueyu has been kidnapped."

"what!"

"The signal from the transmitter shows that Mr. John is currently on the only external passage to the airport. He will probably cross the Minggang Central Bridge and head east. Can you catch up with him?"

"can."

At this moment, there was a "beeping" sound in the brother and sister's glasses, and Conan muttered: "There is noise."

Kudo Yuki frowned and said while controlling the direction of the skateboard: "It looks more like signal interference."

Masumi Sera stopped at the fork in the road on his motorcycle and looked around: "Which road did he take?"

Subaru Okiya drove past at high speed and was spotted by Mari Akai who was sitting on the back of a motorcycle: "Catch up with the red car."

"why?"

"Stop talking nonsense and chase after him!"

Although Sera Masumi was full of doubts, he still followed his mother's instructions and followed closely on his motorcycle.

Subaru Okiya saw the motorcycle following behind him through the rearview mirror and thought to himself: "That motorcycle and the helmet, could it be..." Thinking of a possibility, he pressed the accelerator and increased the speed of the car.

Shira Masumi was still suspicious: "Who is that person?"

"Don't ask any more questions, just follow closely."

"I understand." Sera Masumi responded and accelerated through the car lanes, the roar of the engine rising and falling.

As for Kudo Yuki, she saw a car blocking the road ahead, so she pressed her foot on the skateboard and jumped up, passing the car.

Conan hugged his sister tightly, his heart still beating wildly. After landing, the skateboard shook slightly for a few times, and Kudo Yuki adjusted the balance and continued to move forward.

"Sis, you are too crazy!"

"How can we catch up if we don't do this?"

Kudo Yuki and Conan stared at the disappearing signal on the glasses, and the siblings said in unison: "Why did it break down at this time!"

Conan took out the Junior Detective League's communicator, "Are you awake, Haibara?"

"I was awake. I was woken up by Sister Xiaolan."

"I'm glad you're okay, actually..."

"Wait a moment, I'll change places. Where are you and Sister Xue now?"

"My sister and I's tracking glasses are broken. It should be because we just had a quench and were interfered with by the signal."

"You fainted and got hurt?"

"Help me confirm Mr. John's location."

"Confirm the location? How did you know I had spare tracking glasses?"

"You always like to be well prepared."

"wait for me a while."

"I'm counting on you, Huibara."

After 3 agonizing minutes, Huihara Ai finally sent a message: "After entering the main island, Mr. John turned south from the East China Sea exit. Judging from his speed, he was either driving a car or riding a motorcycle."

Conan put his phone on speakerphone, "Mr. Subaru, Mr. John is now..."

"I heard it, from the East China Sea United Enterprises."

At this moment, Masumi Sera also found Okiya Subaru's car and continued to follow behind.

Kudo Yuki frowned slightly, "Ai, what's the situation at the hospital? By the way, where is Mr. John?"

"The signal stopped near the East Sea Joint Enterprise. Next, I will enter the MRI room. The internal magnetic field there may cause abnormalities in electronic equipment such as tracking glasses. However, since a malfunction has occurred, I think it should be fine."

Conan looked confused: "Habara, what exactly do you mean by lapse of control?"

Huihara Ai chuckled: "Ah, you, a famous detective, don't even know what quenching is?"

"I'm wrong, that's okay."

"Then I'll tell you. The nuclear magnetic resonance instrument has a superconducting magnet inside, and in order to keep the operating temperature at a low level, the instrument is filled with liquid helium. However, once the temperature rises due to some factors, the liquid helium will vaporize rapidly."

“This is quenching.”

"Yes, once a quench occurs, the oxygen content in the air will be rapidly reduced by nitrogen, which will endanger human lives within a few minutes. However, there should be a safety device to avoid this danger. Why does this happen?"

Kudo Yuki kept speeding up to catch up. A man's voice came from Huihara Ai: "There shouldn't be this kind of IV table in the MRI room. Besides, someone pressed the emergency stop button."

Another man's voice came: "What's going on?"

The man from before murmured, "I think it's because this thing got close to the superconducting magnet of the nuclear magnetic resonance apparatus, and someone pressed the emergency stop button in a hurry, which caused the loss of superconductivity."

Huihara Ai interrupted: "But generally speaking, if the emergency button is pressed, all the pipes in the hospital should be closed."

"Yes, if there is smoke, the pipes in the hospital will be closed and only the ventilation ducts leading to the outside will be opened. Why did it happen like that just now?"

Another man spoke up: "Where are you going?"

"Please follow me to the monitoring room."

Kudo Yuki and Conan heard the sound of keyboard tapping. "The pipe leading to the second floor is open, and the exhaust equipment is set to full speed operation mode."

Huihara Ai replied: "Did you hear that? Only the second floor was filled with smoke, and it was evacuated very quickly, so we didn't die from lack of oxygen."

Conan was puzzled: "Did the criminal do this on purpose?"

"I suppose so. If that's the case, the criminal should have no intention of killing anyone. However, there is one thing that is a little strange."

Kudo Yuki looked ahead: "Ai, you want to ask why you woke up so soon, right?"

"Miss, what is going on?

"Because I sprinkled something, which shortened your coma time. In fact, when I found out something was wrong, I prepared a special medicine powder in advance and sprinkled it around you. This medicine can stimulate your nervous system and speed up your awakening."

"Sister, you actually have this kind of thing!"

"There are still many things you don't know."

Huiyuan Ai said on the other end of the communicator: "It seems that this time it is really thanks to you, Sister Xue."

"Don't be too busy thanking me yet. We need to solve this case quickly and find out the criminal's real purpose."
