When he landed, he grabbed the gravel on the ground and shook his wrist - "Swoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!" The sharp stones were like bullets, and three of them hit the enemy's eye sockets, throat and wrist holding the gun respectively.
But the criminals were like immortals who were not afraid of pain.
"Tsk, so tough!" Shen Yuan spat and suddenly slid forward.
The muddy sole of the boot hit the opponent's knee hard, and the sound of the bone cracking was audible.
The body was folded at a strange angle, but the muzzle of the gun was still raised stubbornly.
Conan quickly pressed the detective badge and whispered, "Habara! We've been attacked! Three people are armed with guns, and Brother Shen is injured. Call the police!" Haibara Ai's calm voice came from the badge: "Okay, the doctor has contacted the police, be careful.
"We'll be there right away!" At this moment, Lightning pounced on one of the gangsters, and his sharp canine teeth bit directly into his throat! "Crack—" Blood spurted out, and the man finally fell down, but his eyes were still empty, as if death meant nothing to him.
Ayumi covered her mouth in fear, and Mitsuhiko and Genta also froze in place, obviously frightened by this scene.
In their eyes, Lightning has always been like a pet like a big cat. They never expected that Lightning would have such a ferocious side.
The wounds on Shen Yuan's abdomen and shoulder blades continued to bleed, but his movements did not slow down at all. Conan remembered his anesthetic needle at this time, and immediately raised the watch-shaped anesthetic gun and aimed at a gangster - "Swoosh!" The anesthetic needle accurately hit the gangster's neck. The man's body stiffened, his eyes became dull, and he slowly fell down.
Shen Yuan felt much more relaxed at this time, "The game is over!" Shen Yuan suddenly showed a sinister smile.
He yanked off his blood-stained belt, the metal buckle gleaming coldly in the darkness.
With a "whoosh" sound, the belt wrapped around the opponent's wrist like a whip.
Shen Yuan used the force to jump into the air and kicked the opponent's jaw hard - "Crack!" The sound of broken cervical vertebrae echoed in the cave.
When the body finally fell to the ground with a bang, Shen Yuan also staggered against the rock wall.
Blood dripped from the fingertips, forming dark red flowers on the flooded ground.
Silence finally returned to the cave, leaving only the sound of everyone's rapid breathing.
Shen Yuan leaned against the rock wall and looked down at the wound on his abdomen. The blood had dyed half of his clothes red.
He exhaled slowly, a sneer appearing at the corner of his mouth.
——Fate wanted to get rid of him? Unfortunately, it failed this time.
He looked forward to what fate would do next.
Conan ran over quickly with a serious expression: "Brother Shen, your injury..." Shen Yuan waved his hand, his voice still steady: "It's okay, you won't die!" He looked up into the depths of the cave with deep eyes.
——This game has just begun.
Chapter 67 Cave Exploration 3
"New-Conan! Mr. Shen! How are you?" Dr. Agasa's shout came from the entrance of the cave, accompanied by hurried footsteps and the shaking beam of a flashlight.
There was an unprecedented panic in the old man's voice. His usually smiling face was now tense and beads of sweat oozed from his forehead.
Haibara Ai followed closely behind him, her short brown hair stuck to her cheeks with sweat.
Her always calm blue eyes suddenly constricted and her pupils trembled slightly when she saw Shen Yuan covered in blood.
"Mr. Shen? Are you okay?" Her voice was more nervous than usual. She rushed to Shen Yuan in two steps and knelt on the wet rock ground. She didn't care that her clothes were instantly soaked with blood.
When Genta and his companions saw Dr. Agasa, they immediately pounced on him like little animals that had found support.
Ayumi hugged the doctor's legs tightly, tears falling like beads from a broken string: "Doctor! Brother Shen...he..."
"You need to stop the bleeding quickly!" Haibara Ai had already opened the small bag she carried with her and took out the disinfectant spray and hemostatic bandage.
When the spray touched the wound, Shen Yuan groaned and his vision became a little blurred.
Dr. Agasa looked around, his face pale.
Three unconscious bodies fell to the ground in strange postures, the rock wall was splattered with blood, and Lightning was pacing anxiously beside his master, his silver-gray fur stained with dark red.
"Conan, what is going on? Why did you run into armed gangsters?" The doctor's voice was trembling.
Conan was squatting beside one of the gangsters, searching his pockets.
He raised his head when he heard this, his glasses reflecting a cold light: "Doctor, these three people should be the robbers of the Sanling Bank robbery last week.
News reports said that there were four people who committed the crime, and one of the accomplices was caught on camera!" He held up the wallet he had searched from the gangster's pocket, revealing a blood-stained bank ID.
"It seems that they chose to kill to silence the witnesses in order to avoid being identified by their accomplices in the future.
When we were dumping the body in this cave, we were caught by Genta and the others..." Conan paused, "So he just wanted to kill us all!" Huiyuan Ai was pressing a bandage tightly against Shen Yuan's abdominal wound. Hearing this, she sneered, "What a typical criminal mentality... He really deserves to die!"
"Brother Shen was injured while protecting us!" Mitsuhiko shouted with red eyes, "Those bad guys suddenly opened fire..." Genta grabbed the corner of the doctor's clothes: "Doctor, call an ambulance quickly! Brother Shen was shot twice!" Dr. Agasa comforted him and said that when Conan contacted them just now, he knew that Shen Yuan was injured, so he called an ambulance.
Ayumi sobbed and gestured: "Brother Shen was like a hero in the movie at that time, he stood in front of us..." Shen Yuan's consciousness floated in and out of pain.
He listened to the children's chattering.
Everyone remembers the brutality and bravery of the criminals, but they forget the trajectories that violated the laws of physics, and the strange situation where these people were not afraid of pain and insisted on attacking themselves like "living dead".
——The memory has been corrected.
Why did he want to modify his memories? Was he worried that the "protagonist" would discover the anomaly in the world? Cold fingers suddenly touched his forehead, and Huiyuan Ai's face swayed in his blurred vision. "Don't fall asleep, the ambulance will be here soon!" Shen Yuan wanted to say something, but only coughed up a mouthful of blood foam.
In the last moment before falling into darkness, he seemed to hear the siren of an ambulance in the distance.
The sound came and went, as if it was coming through a thick layer of frosted glass.
The shrill sound of sirens tore through the silence of the mountains and forests. Several police cars and ambulances rolled over the muddy mountain road and braked suddenly at the entrance of the cave.
Inspector Megure was the first to rush into the cave, and his brows were twisted into a knot under his police hat the moment he saw the scene.
"This..." He squatted down, his fingers hovering above the first gangster's twisted neck.
The man's neck was bent backward at an angle absolutely impossible for a human to achieve, and his cervical vertebrae pierced his skin, exposing his white body to the air.
The other corpse next to it was even more horrifying - a hideous gap was torn in the throat, and the trachea and arteries seemed to have been torn off by the sharp teeth of a beast. The dark red blood had already coagulated into a sticky pool on the rock.
"Inspector!" Officer Takagi's voice was trembling, and the flashlight beam shone tremblingly towards the corner, "Look at that..." Everyone's eyes were focused on Lightning.
The silver-gray cheetah squatted quietly beside Shen Yuan's stretcher, its ice-blue pupils shrank into thin lines in the darkness, and there was fresh blood on its lips.
Its sharp canine teeth were faintly visible amidst its heavy breathing.
"Be careful!" Several police officers reflexively reached for their guns.
"Wait!" Conan took a step forward and stood in front of the lightning. "This is the cheetah raised by Brother Shen! It has a legal breeding permit!" Inspector Megure's temples were throbbing.
He looked at the huge beast, then at the corpse on the ground with its throat torn apart. Cold sweat oozed from his forehead: "But, but this wound...it killed someone..."
"It was to protect us!" Ayumi cried, "When those bad guys wanted to kill us, Lightning pounced on them..." Officer Takagi's hand was still on the holster, and his voice was tense: "But this is a human life..."
"According to Article 38 of Japan's Animal Protection Law," Haibara Ai suddenly said, "When the owner or others are threatened with life, the defensive behavior of domesticated animals does not constitute a crime!" She raised her eyes, "Do you need me to recite the specific terms?" The scene fell into a strange silence.
The medical staff took the opportunity to push the stretcher and move quickly, and Lightning followed closely, leaving dark red marks on the ground with his bloody claws.
"Chief!" The forensic officer suddenly shouted, "The other body in the cave was shot, and... it's confirmed to be the robber wanted before!" He held up a plastic bag with gloves on, which contained the blood-stained bank employee ID.
Inspector Megure sighed and rubbed his temples.
He looked at the unconscious foreign student on the stretcher, then at the frightened expressions of the three children, and finally his gaze fell on the beast guarding the stretcher.
"Let's send him to the hospital first!" He took off his hat and wiped the sweat off his face, muttering softly, "It will be troublesome if this becomes a diplomatic incident..." Inspector Megure now only knows that if something happens to Shen Yuan in Japan, the situation will be really troublesome.
The moment the back door of the ambulance closed, Lightning jumped into the car nimbly.
The medical staff shrank back in fear, only to see the beast simply rest its head gently on Shen Yuan's blood-stained shoulder, letting out a low whimper from its throat.
The sirens wailed again, and the dust kicked up by the wheels blurred the cave entrance.
Chapter 68 Ward Greetings 1
The morning light filtered through the curtains of the VIP ward at Mihua Central Hospital, and the smell of disinfectant was diluted by the faint fragrance of the sunflowers by the bedside.
Shen Yuan's eyelashes trembled a few times, and when he slowly opened his eyes, several concerned faces appeared in his field of vision.
"Mr. Shen! Are you awake?" Xiaolan was the first to come closer, her amber eyes filled with worry, "How do you feel? Thank you so much for saving Conan and the others..." Maori Kogoro, who was standing behind her, rarely interrupted. He just crossed his arms and nodded, and the wrinkles between his brows relaxed a little.
"Brother Shen!" Conan's little hands were on the edge of the bed, his blue eyes sparkling behind his glasses, "You were in a coma for a full 28 hours.
Lightning has been guarding here..." He turned sideways to avoid sight.
Shen Yuan tilted his head slightly and saw the silver-gray cheetah curled up on a special mat in the corner of the ward.
Hearing the noise, Lightning immediately pricked up his ears, his ice-blue pupils like polar glaciers in the morning light.
It leaped lightly to the bedside and carefully touched its owner's bandaged wrist with its wet nose.
"It refuses to leave the ward and refuses to eat!" Huihara Ai leaned against the window, her short brown hair blown by the morning breeze.
She was holding a medical journal in her hand and spoke calmly, "The nurses were so scared that they didn't dare to come in to change the dressing!" Dr. Agasa wiped the sweat from his forehead: "It's good that he woke up, it's good that he woke up..." He secretly glanced at the duty roster at the door - it was marked in red pen with the words "Ministry of Foreign Affairs Special Attention Patient".
He knew that if Shen Yuan was not safe this time, things would be really serious.
"Brother Shen Yuan is so—cool!" Yuanzi suddenly jumped out from behind the crowd, gesturing with her hands. "He fought off armed robbers with his bare hands and kept four children safe! This is even better than Kidd's magic! From now on, Brother Shen Yuan will be my most awesome idol!"
"Yuanzi!" Xiaolan tugged at her friend's sleeve helplessly.
"Ah, it seems I'm here at the right time!" Amuro Toru's voice came from the door.
He was wearing a beige sweater and holding a blooming sunflower in his hands. The ends of his golden hair looked like melted honey in the sunlight.
He placed the bouquet on the bedside table, "Mr. Shen is finally awake!" He leaned forward slightly, a gentle smile in his purple-gray eyes, "I don't want to lose Mr. Shen as a friend. Mr. Shen's performance this time was very heroic!" The sunlight cast tiny shadows under his eyelashes, making it difficult to see his true eyes.
Just then, footsteps were heard at the door of the ward.
Genta's parents, Mr. and Mrs. Kojima, walked in first, followed by Mitsuhiko's father, Mr. Tsuburaya, and Ayumi's mother, Ms. Yoshida.
The three children followed their parents with rare well-behaved expressions on their faces! "Mr. Shen!" Mr. Kojima bowed deeply, his rough face full of gratitude, "Thank you so much for saving Yuantai and the others! This child has caused you trouble!" Mrs. Kojima also stepped forward with red eyes: "I heard that if you hadn't protected them in time, the children might have..." She choked and couldn't continue, so she could only bow again.
Mr. Tsuburaya pushed his glasses and said solemnly, "As a father, I really don't know how to express my gratitude.
If you need anything, please let us know!" Ms. Yoshida gently stroked Ayumi's hair: "Ayumi kept crying after returning home, saying that Brother Shen was injured to protect them..." She placed an exquisite box on the bedside, "This is a small token of our appreciation, please don't despise it. If there is anything we can help Mr. Shen with in the future, please don't hesitate to ask!" The three children then stepped forward.
Yuan Tai lowered his head for a rare occasion, and his voice was much softer than usual: "Brother Shen, I'm sorry... It's all because of us running around..." Guangyan twisted his fingers nervously: "We will be more careful in the future! Your injury... still hurts?" Ayumi's eyes were red again, and she touched Shen Yuan's fingertips carefully: "Brother Shen, get better soon... My mother and I learned how to make apple pie, and we will make it for you when you are discharged from the hospital!" Shen Yuan tried to prop himself up, and immediately felt a sharp pain in the wound on his abdomen.
Xiaolan quickly held his shoulders: "Don't move! The doctor said that the bullet was only one centimeter away from injuring the kidney..." Shen Yuan could only lie on the bed and smiled and shook his head: "No need to apologize, it's not your fault!" He looked at several parents, "It's our duty to protect our children, you are too polite!" Amuro Toru handed a tissue to Ayumi who was about to cry, and said gently: "What Mr. Shen needs most now is rest.
Why don’t you come visit him another day?” The parents nodded repeatedly and thanked me repeatedly before leaving with their children.
Before leaving, Yuan Tai turned back and said loudly: "Brother Shen! When you get better, I will treat you to eel rice! The best kind!" After the ward door was closed, Shen Yuan breathed a sigh of relief and leaned back on the pillow.
"Those bastards actually shot at a child!" Maori Kogoro finally couldn't help cursing out loud, then cleared his throat awkwardly, "Ahem... Anyway, you did a great job!" Shen Yuan exhaled softly and leaned back on the pillow. His face was still a little pale, but a faint smile played on the corner of his mouth: "Thank you all for coming to see me, I'm fine!" Xiaolan breathed a sigh of relief, and a gentle smile appeared on her face again: "Mr. Shen, you must take good care of your injuries. I'll bring you some nutritious stew tomorrow!"
"I want to come too!" Yuanzi immediately raised her hand, "I can bring the special supplements made by my chef, and I guarantee that Brother Shen Yuan will be back to full strength soon!" Conan pushed his glasses and said seriously: "Brother Shen was really amazing this time. If you hadn't acted in time, we might have been in danger!" There was a unique sincere gratitude in his voice.
Dr. Agasa wiped the sweat from his forehead and said with relief: "Yes, thanks to Mr. Shen's quick response.
But next time you encounter this situation, it’s safer to call the police first!”
"Hmph, we have to call the police in time!" Maori Kogoro crossed his arms and said seriously, "Facing armed gangsters, it's already amazing that we can protect the children!" Lightning gently rubbed Shen Yuan's hand, his ice-blue eyes full of worry.
Shen Yuan rubbed its ears and said softly, "I'm fine, don't worry!" Huiyuan Ai closed the magazine in her hand and walked to the bed: "Your wound needs to rest for two weeks.
It's best not to let the lightning get too close during this period, so as not to pull the sutures!" Amuro Toru stood aside with a smile, and said in a gentle tone: "If you need any help, you can contact me at any time.
Poirot Cafe is nearby, I can send some easily digestible meals over every day!" Xiaolan squatted down and carefully touched Lightning's head: "It is really worried about you and has been guarding in the ward.
Do you want me to help prepare some of its favorite food?"
"Then I'll trouble you, Xiaolan!" Shen Yuan nodded gratefully. "He's a picky eater, so please prepare some high-quality steaks, not raw ones!" Yuanzi immediately took out her phone: "I'll have my family send it over, it'll save you a lot of trouble!" Her fingers swiped across the screen quickly. "I'll have the butler send some Kobe beef and truffles together. Lightning will probably like it..."
Chapter 69 Ward Greetings 2
The ward door was pushed open again.
Inspector Megure walked in with three men in suits, and the air suddenly became more formal.
"Mr. Shen, excuse me!" Inspector Megure took off his hat, beads of sweat still on his forehead, "These people are..." The middle-aged man standing on the far left stepped forward and said in fluent Chinese: "Mr. Shen, I am Secretary Zhou Ming from the Chinese Embassy in Japan!" He was wearing a dark blue suit, and his eyes behind the gold-rimmed glasses were calm and concerned, "After receiving the notice from the Japanese side, the ambassador is very concerned about your situation!" The younger Japanese official on the right bowed slightly: "Ito from the Asia-Pacific Bureau of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs!" He held a briefcase in his hand, and his eyes glanced at the lightning in the corner from time to time.
Finally, a woman wearing glasses showed her ID: "Aoyama, Wildlife Management Division, Ministry of the Environment."
Regarding your cheetah... although you have a legal breeding permit, human life is involved after all, so we need to re-evaluate its behavior!" When her eyes met Lightning's icy blue pupils, she unconsciously took a half step back.
Xiaolan was keenly aware of the change in atmosphere and gently pulled on Sonoko's sleeve: "Should we... go out first?"
"No!" Sonoko suddenly straightened her back, stood in front of the bed with her hands on her hips, and her short brown hair drew a neat arc in the air with her exaggerated movements.
She opened her arms like a hen protecting her chicks, and her voice was eight octaves higher than usual: "We must stay and be Brother Shen Yuan's strongest backing! Anyone who dares to bully the wounded must first get past me, Suzuki Sonoko!" The air in the ward froze instantly.
Section Chief Aoyama's glasses slipped to the tip of his nose, Officer Ito's mouth twitched, and even Secretary Zhou Ming, who was usually calm, couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
"Sono, Sono..." Xiaolan tugged at her friend's clothes awkwardly.
