Chapter 15 Chapter Fifteen
Although it is in the dark, but with the help of the candlelight between the cracks in the door, you can get a general idea.Otomo-kun looked intently, and standing in front of him was an old man.His white hair is fluffy, his long beard flutters to his chest, he wears a black robe with bat sleeves, and he wears a pair of square rimless glasses. The lenses are flickering with cold light. He smiled kindly.
The strange old man and Otomo-kun looked at each other for a while, then suddenly held the child's hand and said:
"I have something to tell you, follow me. You don't have to be afraid." The attitude is very gentle.
"I'm not going, I'm going back, let me go!" Mr. Dayou summoned up the courage to choke out a sentence, trying to escape, but his hands were firmly held.The old man is so powerful, Otomo-kun can hardly fly even with wings.
"Hahaha, don't even think about escaping from my grasp. Those who know the secrets here, don't even think about going out! Give up resisting, just follow me honestly. I'll show you something, and I want to talk to you." As the old man said, he tightly grasped Otomo-kun's hand and pulled it in forcefully.Otomo-kun refused to leave, and was no match for the old man's brute force, so he was dragged over abruptly.
With a creak, a wooden door opened, and a red light rushed in.In this room, too, there were candles, a table, two chairs, nothing else, the walls were cement.
"It's not here, there's a secret room inside." The old man held Otomo-kun's hand tightly with one hand, and pressed the wall with the other hand—there must be a mechanism there, and then the wall on one side opened silently, leaving Make a gap for people to pass through.The wall turned out to be a thick concrete door.
Otomo-kun was led by the old man, and just passed through the gap when the concrete door behind him closed.There was a pitch-black tunnel in front of him. Walking about ten meters forward, the old man seemed to press the button on the wall again, and the front door opened quietly, and the light came rushing in.
"Here we are. This is my laboratory. Let's have a good chat here."
As soon as Otomo-kun stepped into the room, he was stunned by the scene in front of him.He never dreamed that there was such a high-level research room deep in the air-raid shelter.The room is about twenty-five square meters. The floor, ceiling, and surrounding walls are all made of cement and filled with various tools and equipment.The first thing that catches the eye is a white metal table in the corner of the room, which seems to be used for surgery.Next to the table is a huge white glass cabinet with several layers, and countless surgical tools such as scalpels and scissors are densely placed on it, which makes one's scalp tingle.
On the chemical experiment table on the other side, there are glass bottles for chemical experiments, large and small, in different shapes.The acetylene lamp spewed out a blue flame, and above it stood a large flask with a purple liquid boiling and bubbling.A tall medicine cabinet stands on one side of the chemical laboratory table, with colorful medicine bottles slid open.
In addition, there are many tools of unknown use filled the whole room, which is really thrilling.On the chemistry laboratory table, there is a western-style candlestick in the shape of a trident, and three large candles are bright red.
"Are you scared? Hahaha... Didn't expect there to be such a research room underground, right? I didn't do it. It was an air-raid shelter built by the Army during the war. It's pretty good. This room should have been the command room at the time. No one knows this place except me, so I came to occupy the magpie's nest and borrow it for a while. Sit down."
The strange old man himself pulled up a chair and sat down.The light here is bright, making the old man's face look more eerie - white hair, white beard, hooked nose, sharp eyes, evil spirit, what a "Dr. Monster"!
"You are Otomo-kun, the vice-captain of the Detective Boys. I know everything. You are so brave, you dare to lie on the roof of the car and follow. I like you, so I want to take you as an apprentice, hahaha... yes Not very happy?"
"Uncle, who are you? I don't want to be a stranger's apprentice." Mr. Dayou was already calm.
"Hahaha...you ask who I am? I am the greatest scientist in the world. I invented something more powerful than the atomic bomb. However, no one knows about my invention now. If anyone knows, the whole world will be bombed It’s a shame. My invention is so powerful, maybe someone will kill me.”
The old man's words were too outrageous, making Otomo-kun feel like he was out of his mind, and panicked in his heart.So, what great thing did this old man invent?
