After leaving that room, Conan kept recalling the expressions on those women's faces.

They had obviously been here for a long time, and their expressions were numb and desperate when they talked about the days they had spent.

Although I have long known that people in quarantine may not have a good life, after seeing it with my own eyes and hearing it with my own ears, I am still shocked by the complexity and unpredictable human heart.

Is there any hope for this society?

While Conan was distracted, the cell phone hidden in his trouser pocket suddenly vibrated a few times.

He took out his cell phone and found that it was another text message from the unknown number, still just a simple photo.

The angle of the photo looks like it was taken from a surveillance camera. You can see Mao Liran with all her limbs tied to the bed, surrounded by experimental equipment.

When Conan saw this photo, his pupils dilated instantly.

"Xiaolan!"

His mouth was quickly covered by Dr. Shinde.

Because at this moment they were hiding at the junction of the upper and lower floors of the stairwell, so as to avoid someone coming from either end and make it convenient for them to escape.

Clear footsteps passed through the corridor above my head and gradually faded away.

Afterwards, Dr. Shinde let go of his hand and made a hushing gesture to Conan.

"Keep your voice down, Conan. We'll all be discovered if we keep going like this."

Conan couldn't listen to what he said anymore. He held the phone tightly and read anxiously, "What should I do? Where is Lan now? Has she also been captured by those people for experiments?! Damn it! How can I find her..."

The detective is going crazy.

After looking at him for a long time, Dr. Shinde pursed his lips slightly.

"Don't worry, Conan, you're a detective! Finding clues from photos, isn't that what you're best at?"

Conan forced himself to calm down, looked at the details in the photo again, and finally found the key part.

"The building outside the window has no lights on. Was there any building that was completely dark when we arrived?"

"Well... there are two buildings." Doctor Shinde squatted on the ground and gestured with his hands. "One is quite far away, and the other is right next to the building we are in now."

"What is this?" Conan noticed a little light on the building outside the window, so he enlarged the photo to take a look.

"Is this... the reflection of the moonlight? Wait a minute, the moon seems to be in the southeast today. If we look at it from this direction, then this building should be the one closest to us."

Doctor Shinde pinched his chin and said, "So, the photo means that Miss Xiaolan might be in this building, and in a room where she can see the completely dark building opposite from this angle..."

It's a bit troublesome to search room by room. It would be great if I could know which floor it is on.

"On the third floor!" Conan put his phone back into his pocket, adjusted his belt and anesthetic gun watch, and said seriously to Dr. Shinide: "Brother Shinide, whether Sister Xiaolan can be rescued depends entirely on you."

"Me?" Dr. Arata pointed at himself and blinked in confusion.

……

"It's on fire! Oh no! It's on fire!"

Dr. Shinde appeared on the third floor, wearing a shoddy white coat, stumbling and coughing violently.

His appearance quickly attracted the attention of people patrolling the corridor.

Those people ran over and asked him: "What's going on?!"

"For some reason, the room below the laboratory suddenly caught fire. Quick! Call someone to put out the fire!"

He was coughing violently, and the two men did not doubt his identity because he was wearing a white coat, so they rushed directly to the door of a room downstairs.

Conan, who was mostly in the corridor, saw the room number clearly, then immediately climbed up to the third floor and rushed directly into the laboratory.

Although they did not set the fire in the exact room below the laboratory, or even knew which room was directly below the laboratory, a room still caught fire.

In order to hold those people back.

Doctor Shinde had already opened the door and was waiting for him, "Conan! Hurry! They will soon realize something is wrong and come back!"

There are two rooms in the laboratory. When you first enter, they are full of experimental equipment. After passing through the experimental operation room, there is a bed inside.

The person with her limbs tied up and imprisoned on the bed was indeed Mao Lilan.

Conan tried to buckle the belt on her wrist and found it was tied too tightly. In a fit of rage, he picked up a scalpel from the tray on the cabinet next to him and cut the belt with force.

Ran Mao Li fell into a coma, and there were marks from the injection needle on her arms and neck.

Conan was extremely anxious.

Xiaolan, please don't get into any trouble!

As he was thinking this, Dr. Shinde rushed in from outside and bent down.

"Let's carry her out first and leave here first."

"Yes." Conan nodded, raised his head and looked at Shinichi deeply: "If we can go back the same way, can you help Xiaolan sister to check?"

"Dr. Shinichi."

The man pushed up his glasses and put Mao Lilan on his back.

He replied with the same deep meaning: "If we can return alive, I will definitely do so, Conan."
