Conan: I'm not really a winery boss

Chapter 524 Gin: My Pot?

The exploration of the "Island of Lost Souls" went smoothly, and Haibara also started research with the help of Conan's blood and the body tissues of monsters.

Weiyang also found two intact bulldozers, several hand-push cultivators, and a multifunctional sprinkler full of pesticides.

"It's almost there? The cargo box is almost out of space." Vodka carried a bag of crop seeds and stuffed it into the back of the heavy truck.

Gin, who was holding a gun to guard his surroundings, glanced back, walked to the front of the carriage, and used the butt of his gun to push the seeds into it.

The compartment is indeed full, and if there is more, it will not be able to fit, so we can only find another vehicle.

And that will increase the target of action, making it more difficult to get rid of the monster's pursuit.

Gin is unwilling to get entangled with monster groups. After witnessing the magic of APTX-4869 from Shirley, he trusts Shirley's scientific research ability very much.

Therefore, he had high hopes for the special medicine for killing monsters that Shirley was researching, and he didn't want to waste the few bullets he had in reserve.

"I don't think she will be satisfied. I saw her and Akai Shuichi go to the livestock pen before." Gin Jiu threw the cigarette butt on the ground and stamped it out.

"Ah? No way? Can she still be as greedy as Grappa?" Vodka was a little unconvinced.

For a greedy person like Fu Jiang, he can count on one hand the things he has seen in his life.

Ten minutes later, as Qin Jiu expected, Wei Young dragged the four pigs to this side with hemp ropes.

And Chi Jingxiu followed behind Wei Young expressionlessly, he was covered in mud, and he carried two bags of pig feed, one on his right shoulder and the other on his waist.

It seems that he used a lot of force when catching the pig, or in other words, with all the force, Wei Young didn't even have any stains on his hands.

Gin glanced at the four domestic pigs that were not strong but not skinny.

"It's been a month, and these beasts are still alive?"

"Yeah." Wei Young tugged at the hemp rope in his hand, "It seems that he survived by eating the corpses of his own kind. It's winter now, and the corpses are not so easy to rot."

"Brother Kurosawa, these pigs." A member of the security department stepped forward.

His eyes were fixed on the four pigs, as if he was looking at the golden Fu Jiang.

Although these pigs were all alive and exuded an unpleasant stench, this did not affect the secretion of the member's saliva.

He hasn't eaten fresh meat for a month, not only him, but every member of the "Ark".

Gin nodded, "Go find a van, these pigs need to be brought back to the base."

"Okay!" The member of the security department immediately ran back and brought the good news to his colleagues.

Their "Ark" organization is not only going to start planting crops, but even raising livestock in captivity!

Maybe next year, no, this fall, members of the base will be able to eat delicious rice and sizzling barbecue.

"Food is the paramount necessity of the people, isn't it?" Wei Young's mouth curved slightly.

From a distance, she saw the eyes of the accompanying members of the security department lit up, looking up at the pig over here, and their morale was obviously high.

"Hmph." Qin Jiu looked disapproving and turned around.

But Vodka noticed that the gin's Adam's apple rolled a bit.

The four pigs were escorted with feed to a van.

This car was driven by Gin himself. Although the interior of the car smelled very strong, these livestock were too expensive.

Gin knew that if he was a homeless survivor wandering in the city, after seeing these four domestic pigs, he would definitely kill and rob.

At present, fresh meat is definitely a luxury that can only be enjoyed by the big forces that take the lead in controlling the situation.

When the sun was about to set, the team drove halfway to the return route.

That's nearly a third slower than originally planned because the sprinklers couldn't go as fast as they should.

And because of the scarcity of food and the demand for crops, everyone could not abandon this multifunctional sprinkler truck full of pesticides.

Gin raised his voice and said out of the car window: "There is a gas station at the intersection ahead, let's rest near there until tomorrow morning."

"I think so too." Shuichi Akai, who was driving a heavy truck, replied immediately.

It's not suitable to continue driving after dark, although everyone's night vision ability has been improved after genetic modification.

But it is still not as good as a monster whose genes are completely free and out of the human category.

If such a large target of the convoy is attacked at night, it will be at a disadvantage.

After filling up the vehicle, everyone parked the vehicle on the side of the road 20 meters away from the gas station.

This is to prevent accidental explosions at gas stations.

Akai Shuichi took military cans from the storage box of the truck and distributed them.

Each person can only get one. It is difficult to think about getting enough to eat when supplies are in short supply.

Wei Young leaned against the truck compartment, pierced the can with the fangs on both sides of her mouth, and lifted the lid off.

At this time, Gin also leaned against the carriage, a body away from her.

"How about Grappa? Have you found the island where Alex used to experiment?" Gin asked as he lifted the lid of the can.

Wei Young pulled the can lid from the fangs, "Didn't you already guess it?"

Qin Jiu glanced at Wei Young with cold eyes, and responded in a low voice: "Yeah, if things don't go well over there, why would you be in the mood to develop 'Ark', what you hate the most is 'bamboo basket fetching water in vain', isn't it? Is it?"

Wei Young glanced at Qin Jiu, "I don't want to tell the truth, I need someone to take the blame."

There is no doubt that Qin Jiu has already guessed that she and Fu Jiang are the same person.

In fact, Fu Jiang didn't intend to hide from Qin Jiu.

Because he knows very well that this cannot be concealed, and it is difficult to disguise himself as a stranger while maintaining his personality.

He understands Qin Jiu, and Qin Jiu understands him, one look, one action can figure out the other party's intentions.

In this case, how can you fake it?

While eating, a few scattered monsters approached here, and were silently killed by members of the security department.

Although only training for a month, the growth of these survivors has been remarkable.

Thanks to genetic changes, their eyes are sharper and their body coordination is better, which brings about enhanced fighting and shooting abilities.

"The number of monsters here in Gunma Prefecture doesn't seem to be as many as in Mihua Town and Kuboto Town?"

Gin set the empty can on the ground.

Wei Young nodded and replied:
"Well, the police here are very lucky, most of them are strengthened rather than mutated after being infected.

"I met them when I first returned to Neon. They solved many monsters and established a safe zone."

Gin looked at the cold asphalt road, "But along the way, we didn't meet any of them."

Whether out of selfishness or selflessness, capable people want to restore order.

But not everyone succeeds.

No one knows how long they lasted, and they themselves don't know how long they should last.

In the end, maybe it was just a useless effort.

A third of the cigarette in the mouth of the gin burned out, "Grabba, don't make the same mistakes."

"I understand." Wei Young coughed a few times after finishing speaking, "Also, don't smoke in front of me, this body obviously has good living habits."

Come again?

Gin resisted the urge to roll his eyes, and flicked the remaining two-thirds of the cigarette to the ground.

Vodka, who has been paying attention to the situation here, hurried over, "Brother, you taught me not to throw cigarette butts around!"

Gin said coldly; "That's because your saliva, fingerprints, and tooth marks are on it."

Now there are no official forces that will track them down, so naturally don't care about those.

"That can't be thrown away, this is near the gas station, just in case"

Vodka muttered and walked towards the cigarette butt to pick it up, but before he could finish speaking, a gust of wind blew.

The burning flame of the cigarette butt was dimly lit, and it rolled on the ground one after another, at a very fast speed, and it rolled into the gas station and disappeared in no time.

boom!
The flames swept across in an instant, and the entire gas station erupted into a heat wave.

The fiery breath dispelled the cold here, and the successive explosions made everyone's ears buzzing.

"Ow!"

The roars of a large number of monsters came from a distance, and they were all alarmed by the explosion and flames.

"Brother, look! I told you not to throw cigarette butts!" Vodka yelled loudly.

"Gin, what the hell." Akai Shuichi walked over with a cigarette in his mouth, gnashing his teeth.

Even the cigarette holder in his mouth was crushed by his teeth.

Gin Jiu's right eyelid twitched a few times in a row, eh?What?Is it his fault?Because he lost his cigarette butt?

"Wait." Wei Young grabbed Akai Shuichi's shoulder.

When Akai Shuichi turned her head, she pointed to the gas station with flames in the sky with her chin.

"There's something alive in there."
