Escorted by the police, Conan and his friends temporarily escaped the pursuit of the "Shadow" organization. However, they knew that the enemy would not give up easily, and they had to find a safe place to store the treasure as soon as possible.
“We can’t hand the treasure over to ordinary police officers; the ‘Shadow’ organization’s influence may have infiltrated every corner,” Conan said worriedly.
Ran Mouri frowned: "Then what should we do?"
Lin Yu pondered for a moment: "I know of a place, an extremely confidential and secure research institute, dedicated to the research and protection of precious items."
The group decided to go to the research institute.
They proceeded cautiously, wary of any disturbances around them. Finally, they arrived at the entrance of the research institute.
The head of the research institute was a doctor named David. After listening to Conan and the others' account, he said with a serious expression, "This treasure is of great importance, and we will do our best to protect it."
The treasure was stored in the core vault of the research institute, which has the most advanced security system.
However, just when they thought they were temporarily safe, a series of strange things happened at the research institute. Some staff members suddenly disappeared, and the monitoring system malfunctioned from time to time.
“This is definitely not a coincidence; the ‘Shadow’ organization may have infiltrated us,” Conan said.
They began a covert investigation. Ai Haibara discovered suspicious footprints and strange chemical residues in the missing persons' work area.
“These reagents appear to be designed to compromise the security system,” Ai Haibara analyzed.
While reviewing the surveillance footage, Kogoro Mouri discovered some evidence that the footage had been tampered with.
“Someone is deliberately covering up their whereabouts,” Kogoro Mouri said.
Just then, the institute's power system was suddenly damaged, plunging the entire institute into darkness.
"Everyone be careful!" Conan shouted.
Amid the chaos, several screams rang out.
When the lights came back on, they found several more staff members lying in pools of blood.
“We must find the mole as soon as possible, or we will all be in danger,” Dr. David said.
Conan and the others split up and began searching the research institute.
Ran Mouri discovered a hidden communication device in a corner, with a message that had just been sent still on it.
“This must be a tool used by the mole to communicate with the ‘Shadow’ organization,” Ran Mouri said.
By tracking communication devices, they identified several suspects.
During the interrogation of the suspect, Conan, through meticulous observation and skillful questioning, finally uncovered the real mole.
It turns out he was a senior researcher at the institute who had been bribed by the "Shadow" organization to steal the treasure.
The Shadow organization, having learned that its mole had been exposed, decided to launch a full-scale attack.
Outside the research institute, intense gunfire and explosions rang out.
"They're here!" Lin Yu said.
Conan and the others, along with the research institute's security personnel, prepared for this fierce battle.
The enemy surged in like a tide, and Conan and his friends fought bravely. Kogoro Mouri displayed extraordinary fighting skills, repelling the enemy's attacks time and time again.
Lin Yu used his technological knowledge to repair some defensive facilities, causing great obstacles for the enemy.
Ai Haibara provides treatment and support to the wounded from the rear.
Conan, with his wisdom and courage, directs the rhythm of the battle.
During the fierce battle, Conan discovered a weakness in the enemy.
"Concentrate your firepower on that spot!" Conan shouted.
Following his command, the group launched a fierce attack on the enemy's weaknesses.
The enemy's offensive gradually weakened and was eventually repelled.
The research institute returned to calm, but Conan knew this was only temporary peace; the "Shadow" organization wouldn't give up so easily...
