I'm in Conan, I'm not a gangster

Chapter 588 I have a feeling that the Russian is definitely going to cause trouble (2 updates)
When Shiraishi E and Sonoko's group rushed to Sonoko's suite, the scene before them was shocking.

The original door had been blown to pieces, leaving only the twisted door frame standing there alone.

The room was filled with a strong smell of gunpowder mixed with the stench of blood, making one involuntarily frown.

The suite was in a mess.

The priceless crystal chandelier shattered on the floor, reflecting an eerie light; the imported Italian leather sofa was torn to shreds by the shockwave; the valuable oil painting on the wall hung crookedly, its frame riddled with tiny cracks.

In the center of these ruins, Han Chuanlong was writhing in agony.

This freelance videographer's legs, from the waist down, have now vanished.

The Persian carpet beneath him was soaked in blood, turning a dark red color.

"Save me!" Han Chuanlong weakly stretched out his hand, his face ashen, his forehead covered in large beads of sweat. "Please... call a doctor."

Shiraishi E walked slowly up to him, looking down at the dying thief with a speechless expression, and said, "How dare you? Are you blind? Didn't you see what happened to Kanshouichi?"

He couldn't understand the other person's thought process.

They've seen the lessons of the past, yet they still come here to die.

What picture?

Han Chuanlong's lips trembled as he explained haltingly, "I...I used a hidden camera to record the password when Miss Suzuki opened the vault."

With each word, he gasped for breath in pain: "After you left with Gan Jiang, I thought... I thought it was safe inside. So, before you planted the new bomb, I wanted to come and see that memory Easter egg."

The Russian standing to the side, Siryuv, scoffed, "You idiot!"

His Russian accent grew even stronger with excitement: "Do you really think it takes this boy to plant the bomb himself? This ship is full of Suzuki family members; any crew member could do the job!"

Upon hearing this, Han Chuanlong, who was being carried away, had a fleeting look of realization in his eyes, which quickly turned into deep regret.

He muttered weakly, "How could I not have thought of that?"

At this point, he suddenly coughed violently, blood trickling from the corner of his mouth: "I was wrong, I was really wrong, please... call a doctor."

Sonoko stood at the door, her face filled with disgust.

But she gestured to the waiter in the hallway: "Call a doctor. Don't let that idiot die here; it's bad luck."

Soon, two ship doctors in white coats arrived with a stretcher.

They skillfully stopped the bleeding and bandaged Han Chuanlong's wounds, then swiftly lifted the seriously injured thief onto a stretcher.

Pu Siqinglan sighed and said, "Idiot."

Shiraishi E nodded in deep agreement: "Truly an idiot, still thinking about 'fortune favors the bold'."

He looked around at the dilapidated suite and sighed, "Just in case, I need to make more thorough arrangements this time."

He turned to the garden and said, "I'll put explosives at every possible entrance, including windows, vents, and even the ceiling. Hopefully, no idiot will come in to steal the memory Easter egg again!"

Just then, Sileo noticed a strange phenomenon—Sonoko, Kazuha, Urako Seiran, and Kosaka Natsumi all turned their gazes toward him at the same time.

The burly Russian man was taken aback at first, then flew into a rage: "Why are you all looking at me?!"

His face flushed red, and his thick beard trembled with rage. "I would never steal! You bastards, you're insulting me!"

He angrily waved his fist, turned, and strode away. His leather shoes slammed heavily on the floor, making a thud that spoke volumes about his fury.

However, once Sileof turned the corner of the corridor and confirmed that he was out of everyone's sight, his expression instantly changed from anger to ferocity.

He slammed his fist against the wall and muttered curses in Russian: "That damned Hanchuanlong! That stupid pig! He ruined my whole plan!"

His original, meticulously planned operation was to wait until late at night, break the suite's floor-to-ceiling windows from the outside, and use a rope to sneak in from the balcony.

But now, because of Hanchuan Long's reckless actions, not only has he alerted the enemy, but Shiraishi E has also become more vigilant and is preparing to plant bombs at all possible entrances!
This completely ruined his plans.

--------

Following the series of incidents—Ganjiang's arm being blown off and Hanchuanlong losing both legs—an eerie silence permeated the entire cruise ship. No one dared to approach Sonoko's suite even a step further; they even quickened their pace unconsciously when passing through that corridor.

The bored crew members secretly nicknamed that area "the Limb Dismemberment Corridor".

On a sunny afternoon, the outdoor swimming pool on the deck shimmered in the sunlight.

Sonoko was wearing a crystal-studded bikini and lounging on a beach chair.

Kazuha chose a fresh floral swimsuit, while Natsumi Kosaka wore an elegant pure white one-piece swimsuit.

The three of them held colorful cocktails in their hands, enjoying the gentle caress of the sea breeze.

"Ah~ this is what a vacation should be like!" Sonoko took a satisfied sip of her Blue Margarita. "Sunshine, sea, and fine wine!!"

Kazuha took a small sip of her strawberry daikiri, then suddenly frowned: "It feels like so much time has passed, why haven't we arrived in Yokosuka yet?"

She looked at the distant horizon with a puzzled expression: "Isn't it said that taking a cruise ship only adds a few hours compared to taking a plane?"

Sonoko's smile froze for a moment, then she waved her hand dramatically: "Long time? I don't feel like it's been long at all!"

She turned to Natsumi Kosaka for support: "Right, Ms. Kosaka?"

"Yes, yes." Natsumi Kosaka's smile was slightly stiff, her fingers unconsciously rubbing her wine glass as she said something against her will, "I also feel like it hasn't been long. Maybe it's because we were having so much fun that time seemed to pass so slowly?"

Kazuha tilted her head, feeling that something was wrong, but her phone had been taken away by Sonoko long ago under the pretext that "one should stay away from electronic products on vacation," so she couldn't confirm the time.

She had no choice but to suppress her doubts for the time being and turn her attention to the huge pirate ship amusement facility at the other end of the deck.

"That looks so interesting! Can we play with it?" Kazuha's eyes lit up.

Sonoko immediately perked up: "Of course! I'll have someone start it right now!"

She jumped up, excitedly grabbing Kazuha and Natsumi Kosaka's hands: "Come on, let's go play together!"

Under a parasol not far away, Shiraishi E and Urashi Seiran watched the three girls' joyful figures running towards the pirate ship.

"It's so good to be young." Pu Siqinglan sipped her lemonade. She had changed into a light purple gauze dress, which made her look exceptionally elegant in the sunlight.

Shiraishi E didn't reply; his gaze was thoughtfully fixed on the sky.

He was unusually dressed today in a casual white shirt, with the collar open.

"Aren't you going to play with them?" Pu Siqinglan asked curiously.

"Thinking about something," Shiraishi E replied briefly, her fingers tapping rhythmically on the armrest.

Pu Siqinglan guessed, "Thinking of that Russian?"

Shiraishi E nodded slightly: "He's too quiet, something's not right."

His voice was low. "I bet he's plotting something."

"Do you have any evidence?" Pu Siqinglan raised an eyebrow.

“No,” Shiraishi E said bluntly, “but my intuition is never wrong.”

He paused for a moment, then said, "I always like to resolve problems before they occur."

Pu Siqinglan nearly dropped the cup in her hand. She quickly steadied herself and lowered her voice, saying, "Calm down! He's an official representing the Russian government! If you do anything to him, it will trigger a diplomatic crisis!"

Shiraishi E's lips curled into a smile: "Don't worry, I know my limits. Otherwise, I would have already made my move."

He turned to Pu Siqinglan, his tone suddenly becoming lighter: "Tell me, is there any reasonable way to make him disappear 'accidentally'?"

Pu Siqinglan's face turned deathly pale instantly. She shook her head frantically, "I...I'm so stupid! I can't figure it out! Don't ask me!"

Her voice was clearly panicked, and her fingers gripped the hem of her skirt tightly.

Seeing this, Shiraishi E chuckled and said, "Just kidding, don't be nervous."
