He was still secretly tampering with Matsumoto Mitsuji.

What effect are we trying to achieve?

You can run, and you can also jump slightly.

However, once water gets in, the pressure will cause them to lose their ability to move instantly.

This is a delicate task.

Kimiko Yamaguchi assumed he was checking Matsumoto Mitsuji's vital signs, so she shifted her attention to Shinichi Kudo.

She truly hadn't expected Section Chief Iwao to appear here, and from the way he sounded, it seemed he was here for the treasure.

They were all old acquaintances, and she felt this was a bit beyond her comprehension.

Section Chief Iwao tried to argue a bit more, but Shinichi Kudo forced all his not-so-sufficient evidence and clues onto him, leaving him speechless.

While he could argue that the treasure hunt game's design matched real pirate codes from 300 years ago, there was no point in doing so.

At most, his charges are just theft of firearms and intentional assault.

Since it's already confirmed there's no treasure, there's no point in causing any more trouble; we might even get beaten up by that Suzuki guy.

It's simply not worth it.

They might as well think of a way to cover up the whole shark killing thing.

Ran Mouri looked at Shinichi Kudo, who was full of confidence and youthful vigor, and her heart was filled with emotion.

Shinichi is still the one who fascinates her.

That hands-in-pockets pose...it looks just like Conan.

No, no, no, it should be said that Conan resembles him.

Sigh... Conan is always picked up by his father whenever Shinichi comes back.

every time?

Just then, the cave suddenly began to shake violently.

earthquake!

The next moment, the cave wall above cracked open, and seawater rushed in instantly. The falling rocks blocked the passage that Suzuki Yusuke and the others had come through, creating a tight gap.

Shinichi Kudo's heart tightened as he suddenly heard a faint sound of airflow, like a high-pressure valve being opened.

This is not normal.

The cave is right next to the sea; how could there be air at such pressure?

Could it be methane?!

The seabed collapse near Shenhai Island was caused by a methane leak.

Oh no.

Shinichi Kudo, who had figured out the problem in an instant, quickly called out, "Get on the ship first, and hurry up!"

As soon as he boarded the ship, the smell of hydrogen sulfide filled his nostrils again.

Now it is certain.

Fortunately, methane has a low density and will first accumulate at the top of the cave; otherwise, the row of lit oil lamps around it would have been a huge problem.

Soon, the floodwaters extinguished the lights.

Conan took out the portable oxygen tank that Dr. Agasa had given him and handed it to Ran Mouri and Kimiko Yamaguchi.

Yusuke Suzuki gave the oxygen tank to Section Chief Yu Iwao.

The rest of the oxygen tanks, hehe, he had already thrown them into the water in the chaos.

Matsumoto Mitsuji, let's have a contest to see who can hold their breath longer.

Chapter 787 Just because you can't do it doesn't mean I can't either.

Now that there is double protection, Suzuki Yusuke does not believe that Matsumoto Mitsuji can make it ashore alive.

In fact, he wasn't so violent that he would kill someone if provoked.

However, Matsumoto Mitsuji's intentional act of harm was too serious.

He did save the silly little sister, but what about Ran Mouri?

He had just promised Kogoro Mouri that he would protect Ran if conditions allowed.

Isn't it a bit inappropriate for things to be proven wrong so quickly?

Furthermore, Yusuke Suzuki had been trying his best to prevent things from coming to this point from the very beginning.

Matsumoto Mitsuji, you were never a good person to begin with. Blame the world's will if Ran Mouri and the other woman hadn't come. You would have definitely lived to be imprisoned.

After explaining himself to himself, Suzuki Yusuke took advantage of the darkness to walk to Kudo Shinichi's side.

This kid is in a real hurry right now.

I don't have any items on me. How am I supposed to escape from here?

In this situation, even if they don't drown, they'll suffocate from the methane.

"The rock wall isn't very thick. If we blast off the cave roof, the ship can get out. At the very least, we can try swimming."

Shinichi Kudo didn't turn around, but continued to observe the environment. "Unfortunately, I can't make the methane above the cave explode right now."

Just because you can't do it doesn't mean I can't either.

Yusuke Suzuki hooked his finger on the chain he took from the deck crate. "Let's take Ran and the others into the cabin. The methane density isn't high enough yet. It'll be safer to wait a little longer."

"What are you going to do?"

Shinichi Kudo asked instinctively at first, then realized what he meant and exclaimed in shock, "Aren't you going to take turns breathing oxygen with Mr. Iwao?!"

"You can take it later."

"How could we possibly make it in time? Once the current becomes turbulent, it'll be difficult to get close to each other!"

Shinichi Kudo pushed Yusuke Suzuki into the cabin, saying, "I'll figure something out here. You go in first."

"Since when did it become your place to order me around?"

Yusuke Suzuki exerted a little force, keeping his body still, and said condescendingly, "You don't have oxygen supply equipment either."

"I'm different..."

Shinichi Kudo chuckled nonchalantly, "I already feel guilty for asking you to save Ran, and if I let you die here..."

"I'm sure."

Before Shinichi Kudo could react, Yusuke Suzuki grabbed him by the collar and threw him into the cabin.

Ran Mouri and Kimiko Yamaguchi, who were a little confused, gasped in surprise, but Shinichi Kudo's explanation calmed them down.

"What does Yusuke-nii plan to do?"

Ran Mouri looked worried, but she couldn't see Yusuke Suzuki anywhere.

Shinichi Kudo clenched his fist tightly, then slowly relaxed it, feigning composure. "That guy would use methods that most people wouldn't even think of, right?"

However, you can trust him without worry.

As he spoke, he shook Ran Mouri's hand, then used the excuse of checking on Kouji Matsumoto to get away from Ran Mouri.

If we're going to separate, then let's separate by a great distance.

Don't give Xiaolan any false hope that he can come back to save her.

Ten minutes of oxygen is most likely only enough for one person.

Being able to say goodbye to Xiaolan as I was can be enough.

They just couldn't make it to the end.

I'm very sorry.

Shinichi Kudo's gaze was drawn to Ran Mouri, but he resolutely turned his face away.

On the outer deck.

Yusuke Suzuki kept weighing the iron chain in his hand and repeatedly simulated the situation in his mind to ensure that nothing went wrong.

Section Chief Yan Yong was carrying a gun, but that wasn't appropriate in this situation.

The moment he fired the shot, he exploded.

A few breaths passed in an instant.

almost.

His exceptional sense of smell had already made the judgment.

"Get ready, it's about to begin."

Yusuke Suzuki struck a pose, and Shinichi Kudo responded from inside the cabin.

It's now!

Yusuke Suzuki's muscles burst forth with explosive power, channeling this force to the instep through various human levers.

Then, the chains were struck and transformed into dark, shadowless figures that shot upwards.

There will absolutely be no problem with this force.

Yusuke Suzuki rarely looked back at the explosion; he rushed into the cabin in a few strides.

Because the chains were flying too fast, his back still suffered a considerable impact.

At that moment, the cave was set ablaze.

The rumbling sound outside caused seawater to rush into the cabin.

But fate was pushing the two of them closer together.

Shinichi Kudo rolled around in the water a few times and bumped right into Ran Mouri's arms.

Just for a moment.
