A few days later, Ichijo drove a police car from the search headquarters. He first went to Kanto Medical College to get an autopsy report, then passed through Makuhari and entered Chiba Prefecture, all the way to the police research institute where Enokida was located.
After entering the research institute, Ichiichi passed through several research rooms one after another before finding a busy and exhausted Enokida in the innermost research room.
"Ms. Enokida, this is the latest anatomy result of No. 46 from Tsubaki. I hope it will be helpful to the development of enhanced nerve-breaking bombs."
"Well, please leave it there first."
Ichijo put the report on the table, was silent for a while, and then asked expectantly: "Excuse me...how is the development progress?"
He couldn't help but get distracted by this. Since facing the Gurungi, although the police have been upgrading their weapons and equipment, they have not been able to produce very good results. The nerve-breaking bomb is currently the only one with a record of successfully killing the Gurungi. weapons.
Ichijo has always had the idea of wanting to use the power of the police to eliminate the enemy, and to realize this, the nerve-breaking bomb is undoubtedly the best hope.
However, after asking this question, Enokida had no image of crying and looked like he was about to collapse from exhaustion. He stroked his forehead and sighed: "Ichijo-kun, you really gave me a big problem. ah!"
Facing Kaoru Ichijo who was confused, Enokida explained in a complaining tone: "Although I have read the report, this time the nerve fragmentation bomb seems to be a little less powerful when facing No. 46. But the bullets are only made of gunpowder. In fact, it is almost the limit of the power of the nerve fragmentation bomb, because if I increase the amount of gunpowder, I might as well just make a grenade, but the howitzer will completely lose the gunpowder due to insufficient penetration, causing continuous explosions in the enemy's body. The ability to harm…”
A series of sentences rushed towards him, and Ichijo was suddenly startled, "Then... what should I do?"
"It's a very troublesome problem, so I thought about it for several days, and there was no other way but to replace other materials to achieve the effect of continuous destruction of nerves. The nano-device used in the development of marker bombs came in handy. I thought about first adding tiny needles made of the same material as armor-piercing bullets into the bullet, which would overwhelmingly improve the penetrating power of the bullet. Then when these needles enter the body, they will cause the nano-devices they carry to explode, which will not only increase the number of times , the strike will be more precise, so the power of this new type of nerve-breaking bomb is expected to be dozens of times that of the previous one."
"You are indeed as powerful as ever, Ms. Enokida!" Ichijo responded immediately.
"But - yes -" Enokida prolonged his tone, spread his hands like a mess, and said as if he was complaining: "Although nanodevices can save volume to a great extent, the actual bullet made The size is still beyond the limit of what ordinary firearms can use, so if you want to use it, you have to build a special rifle... With such a workload, I have already imagined what I would write on my epitaph after I die from exhaustion..."
"Uh...I'm really sorry." He bowed apologetically. After listening to such a long narrative, he also understood how difficult it was to develop this new weapon.
"But you are the only one who can complete this work, Ms. Enokida. If there is anything you need help with, please let me know!" Ichijo stressed seriously. It was not his fault to put such heavy pressure on a woman. I felt ashamed of it, so I wanted to lend a helping hand as much as possible.
However, he was eventually kicked away by Enokida on the grounds that "I am the omnipotent Enokida, so I don't need you to cause trouble."
On the way back from the Police Research Institute to search the headquarters, his mood was not as relaxed as when he came. When he passed Makuhari, there were suddenly many people on the street handing out flyers, but Ichigo, whose mind was occupied by the nerve-breaking bomb, didn't pay attention at all, and just thought Maybe a certain merchant is holding an event.
Speaking of which, the last time I came here, I came to participate in Natsume's flute competition, but I didn't expect to encounter such things as employee retaliation. Although now it seems that it has something to do with Gohara Tadaki... Later, with the cooperation of Officer Katsuragi, I succeeded After the danger was resolved, the old classmate clamored to take him to the best izakaya in Makuhari to have a good drink and entertain him if he had the chance.
But this kind of thing is still suitable for Officer Sugita, Ichijo thought: Because Sugita is the kind of person who can drink at one hotel after another in a busy neighborhood with just an invitation! Although I can drink a little, I'm not really good at it. Especially when you have to talk and do meaningless things at gatherings, you will feel even more empty.
Thinking of this, Ichijou felt that he couldn't stay in Makuhari for a long time. It would be bad if he was caught by a passing detective who happened to be Officer Katsuragi.
When the red light ended and I put the gear in gear and started driving, a leaflet happened to be blown by the wind, ran into the passenger seat through the half-open window, and fell down. But generally speaking, it is difficult for Ichijo to be distracted by other things when he is focused on something, so it was not until he returned to the search headquarters that he picked up the flyer and took a look.
The above content is probably: Due to the long-standing unconfirmed huge casualties caused by the activities of life forms to human society, the Joint Fundraising Organization decided to conduct a charity fundraising event to provide assistance to all victims and their families...
This seemed to be a normal thing, until Kaoru Ichijo's eyes fell on a name on the sponsor's catalog, and his eyes instantly turned into needle shapes.
"Gohara Tadashi!"
Ichijo's spirit was lifted, and his mind was suddenly filled with a strong thought: "Gohara...no, it's No. 49, is his game finally about to begin?!"
…
At the same time, in Xiangyuan's villa, Rose Girl appeared here again.
She asked with a silent expression: "Your identity has been suspected by those Linduo soldiers. Taking such a blatant action will definitely alert them. Is that okay?"
"The most valuable spirit of a person is to be able to clearly realize what should not be believed." The smiling mask on Goyuan's face seemed to have never been taken off, and he also said such a meaningless sentence to Rose Girl's question.
Then he explained: "This is what a playwright named Euripides said in ancient Greece. It makes sense, doesn't it? It would be strange if those policemen didn't suspect me, because That proves that they are a group of idiots, and playing games with idiots is the most boring thing. On the contrary, an aboveboard game under their suspicion is what we look forward to!"
"Whatever you do, I just need the game to continue normally..." Rose Girl left these words and turned to leave.
"I won't send it."
Xiangyuan raised the wine glass in his hand and took a sip, and the smile on his face became more and more mysterious...
