Nagai Hikaru's Ke Xuexing

Chapter 239 The Lights Go Out

Toru Amuro stood at the door waiting anxiously. When the elevator door opened, only Armagnac and six researchers in white coats came up.

"Where's Bordeaux!" Toru Amuro grabbed Armagnac's collar.

"The elevator... the elevator couldn't accommodate him. He was in a wheelchair. He asked us to come up first while he took another elevator." Armagnac raised his hands nervously in surrender, and saw the empty streets outside and the streets filled with pink liquid. "Is this color the thing on your neck?"

Amuro Toru watched the six researchers run out of the elevator in panic, and he roughly pulled Armagnac over and walked into the elevator: "Scan quickly, I want to go down. Is he on the basement floor?"

Armagnac quickly pointed at the spot where the pupil was scanning, and then moved his eyes closer. After a while, he said with sweat on his head, "Bordeaux is on the underground first floor... Oops, the elevator control console below seems to have been flooded, and the contact is poor."

Amuro Toru felt like his brain and heart were about to explode: "Where's the other elevator?"

"They use the same console."

Toru Amuro threw away the Armagnac, rushed to another elevator door, pried it open with his hands, tore off some cloth from his clothes and wrapped it around his hands twice, then jumped in, grabbed the middle elevator rope and slid down.

Armagnac glanced at the smashed elevator entrance. The pink liquid finally found a better entrance and rushed down madly. The street could be said to be much cleaner in an instant.

"Master Armagnac..." The female researcher with glasses came over cautiously, "What about us?"

"Let's run away before the police come." Armagnac smiled and turned around and jogged. "Thanks to the app that Binga sent us, we can rest assured that we won't be captured by the camera."

The six researchers looked at each other, then followed Armagnac out, taking off their white coats as they ran.

Toru Amuro descended to the basement floor, pushed open the elevator door with force, and climbed in. The injury on his right arm became more serious during the fall.

He stood up, gritted his teeth and walked in: "Xiao Guang!" How could he not be waiting at the elevator entrance? Amuro Toru walked in, leaving pink footprints with every step.

Fortunately, the pink liquid is still flowing to the B2 floor and has not spread to the B1 floor.

All the doors along the way were wide open, and it seemed that there were only a few researchers who had just left this laboratory.

It was then that Toru Amuro saw a light coming through a door. He trotted a few steps and rushed in, and saw Hikaru Nagai sitting in front of a wall of several display screens, downloading something with a USB drive.

"Xiao Guang! Go!"

Nagai Hikaru turned around in his wheelchair and looked at Amuro Toru in surprise: "Brother Toru, your head is covered in blood!"

"Don't worry about it, just get out of here." Toru Amuro walked over quickly and was about to push Hikaru Nagai's wheelchair.

Nagai Mitsuru quickly unplugged the USB drive and seemed to want to stand up, but the dizziness made him sit back in the wheelchair: "Brother Toru, don't worry about me, you go first."

"Are you kidding? I came down here to take you away!" He gritted his teeth, tied the wound on his right hand with the sleeve of his suit, and pushed Nagai Mitsuru's wheelchair out quickly.

But as soon as I reached the door, I saw a torrent of pink liquid squeezing in from the elevator door that I had opened earlier.

Toru Amuro and Hikaru Nagai hurriedly pushed to the other end.

"Brother Toru, that's a dead end." Nagai Mitsuru said anxiously.

"No! There's an abandoned elevator shaft over there. I don't know why it hasn't been landfilled." Amuro Toru cursed in his heart. If that place was sealed well, the pink liquid would flow into the building and the blue liquid would be on the street, and nothing serious would happen.

Just when they were halfway through their run, there was a sudden huge explosion from underground behind them. The shock wave knocked the two of them forward. The cushion of Nagai Mitsuru's wheelchair exploded and instantly expanded, just blocking the flames coming from behind.

But at the same time, all the lights in the aisle were turned off, and it was pitch black. The cushion was quickly ignited by something, and the aisle was illuminated again by the purple flame light, and the flames were spreading towards the two people.

"This explosion doesn't seem as scary as expected?" Nagai Mitsuru said in a low voice while lying on the ground.

"Because the blue liquid is blocked, not much is leaking out! Quick, the pink one seems to help with combustion!" Amuro Toru found that the pink liquid on the sole of his leather shoes had already caught fire under the high temperature just now. He quickly took them off and threw them behind him, then endured the pain and used his left hand to help Nagai Hikaru up, "Let's go to that elevator shaft."

The two began to race against the flames burning behind them. When they reached the elevator door that was supposed to be closed, Amuro Toru was stunned: "Has it been destroyed by someone?"

"It seems that it was not kicked open." Nagai Mitsuru was put aside and watched Amuro Toru trying to open the elevator door with one hand. A beam of light appeared, and Conan, pulling the retractable belt and biting a flashlight in his mouth, was about to continue kicking the elevator door.

Seeing two people in the door, Conan was startled, his teeth loosened, and his watch fell down. Amuro Toru hurriedly reached out and caught the watch: "Hurry, take Xiaoguang upstairs." Then he stuffed the watch back into Conan's bag.

"Together." Looking at the flames that had spread behind Amuro Toru and Nagai Hikaru, Conan pulled the elastic band and tied it around Amuro Toru's left wrist, "Hold Hikaru tight!"

Just as Toru Amuro was about to say that my arm was injured, Hikaru Nagai stood up shakily and put his hands around Toru Amuro's neck: "Don't worry, I'll hold you well."

Amuro Toru breathed a sigh of relief, grabbed the retractable belt, and Conan lay on Amuro Toru's back: "I pressed the button!"

The flames were about to touch the hair of several people, and the retractable belt suddenly contracted and pulled upwards.

Fortunately, there is only one floor, and I can see the light of the exit after walking up a few meters.

There were also sporadic drops of blue liquid dripping down, probably because the flower bed above was not blocked very tightly, and it had already seeped over.

Just when it was less than two meters away from the exit, the telescopic belt stopped rebounding.

Conan was stunned: "Oh no, that street light up there!"

The street lamp was just a thin iron pole used for decoration. It was bent completely at this moment. Ayumi on it screamed in shock: "Conan! Oh no! The street lamp is going to break!"

The weight of two adults and a child was ultimately too much pressure on the decorative street lamp, and the rapid contraction caused some damage to it.

Nagai Hikaru, who was hugging Amuro Toru's neck, suddenly laughed out loud: "Street lights, they are lights."

Amuro Toru had a bad feeling in his heart.

Nagai Hikaru took off the white amulet from his neck, which was already stained with mostly red. "Brother Toru, this is what I just downloaded. It contains a list of six politicians. They are all top-level figures who have cooperated with the organization. This is evidence of their illegal financial dealings. Thank you for bringing it back..."

"Xiao Guang, what are you doing?" Conan panicked before Amuro Toru, watching Nagai Hikari put the amulet on Amuro Toru's neck. He grabbed Nagai Hikari's wrist.

"Brother Toru, do you remember my fortune? My light is off, so I can't interfere with your light." Nagai Hikaru looked at Conan and firmly pried his fingers apart, "Please take good care of Xiaolan for me, Shinichi."

After saying that, Nagai Mitsuru let go of the hands that were around Amuro Toru's neck and slid down suddenly.

Amuro Toru held the retractable belt with his left hand, and grabbed the wrist of the falling Nagai Hikaru with his right hand: "What nonsense are you talking about? Your fortune clearly said there were three lights in total! So what if one is off?!"

"Brother Toru, did you peek at my signature?" Nagai Mitsuru chuckled, "But... no matter how many lights there are, it's meaningless to me..."

As Nagai Hikaru spoke, his whole body shook, and blood from the wound on Amuro Toru's right arm dripped onto Nagai Hikaru's face.

"Please... don't give up... come up with us..." Amuro Toru pleaded.

The street lamp outside finally couldn't bear the pressure and broke from the root. The three people hanging on it slid down violently.

Genta Mitsuhiko outside was the first to rush over and grab the lamppost: "Conan! Come up quickly!"

Conan pressed the switch of the telescopic belt hard, but perhaps the huge pulling force caused the switch to fail.

Ayumi also rushed over and pulled the street lamp a little to the right, so that the lamp was stuck horizontally at the entrance and exit of the elevator door, but the entire street lamp was still slowly twisting inward, becoming more and more dangerous.

The flames below had already lifted the hem of Nagai Hikaru's skirt. The blood on Amuro Toru's body flowed down his arm to the hand that was holding Nagai Hikaru's. Nagai Hikaru smiled at Amuro Toru again: "Remember how I looked when I was still beautiful."

As he spoke, he struggled violently. Amuro Toru felt pain in his arm, and his hand slipped, and he finally lost his grip. He watched Nagai Mitsuru fall into the purple flames below.

The sudden reduction in weight finally caused the retractable belt that Conan had pressed hard to respond, and all of a sudden he and Toru Amuro were lifted to the elevator entrance, with their upper bodies hanging on the ground.

Conan looked down at the flames that were already going away, and then saw Genta Mitsuhiko and others frantically trying to pull Amuro Toru.

He was stunned for a moment. He had just used all his energy to press the retractable belt, and his mind went blank the moment Nagai Mitsuru fell.

Several policemen rushed over when they saw the situation. They were just dragging flower beds from other places to block the blue liquid.

It sounds like a long time, but it only took a few minutes from the time the telescopic belt broke the street light to the time the street light got stuck at the elevator entrance.

Conan finally came to his senses. He let go of Amuro Toru, turned around and was about to jump into the fire.

"Shinichi!" A voice came from far away, and Conan stopped before jumping.

Mao Lilan panted and ran to the elevator door: "Conan, are you okay?"

Conan stared at Mouri Ran blankly. Mouri Ran hurriedly pulled him out of the elevator entrance, and then went with the police to pull out Amuro Toru.

Haibara Ai ran over behind, and when she saw that Conan and Amuro Toru were safe, she breathed a sigh of relief: "Edogawa, I'm so glad you're okay."

Conan turned his head to look at Haibara Ai with a dull look, and opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something.

"What's wrong? Edogawa?"

Conan turned his head to look at the elevator entrance. The purple flames had spread upwards and began to burn to the first floor. The fire brigade was rushing here. There were more and more rescue workers around, and the noise filled the surroundings of the building.

And Toru Amuro had disappeared into the crowd at some point.

Mao Lilan walked up to Conan, looked at him in a mess, and asked distressedly: "Conan, what's wrong with you?"

Conan looked up at Mao Lilan, his face blank: "Xiao Guang...didn't come out..."
