I'm in Detective Conan, and I start with the Grand Theft Auto system.

Conan was extremely anxious as he watched Ota Masaru being chased by a black bear!

He looked around, and finally his gaze settled on one spot!

He shouted in Ota Katsu's direction, "Jump into the swimming pool!! The swimming pool can save you!!"

After he shouted, he turned and ran without looking back!

It's not that Conan is cold-hearted, but that he knows very well that this is all he can do!

The rest is up to Ota Katsumi's own fate!

I was really stupid to rush in; I only ended up being an extra meal for the black bear!

Ota Masaru heard Conan's shout, and in extreme fear, his brain caught those words—swimming pool.

He had no time to think, or even to confirm his direction. Driven purely by his survival instinct, he changed his running route and scrambled towards the pool.

The pool's surface reflected a quiet, deep blue light under the night glow.

He ran to the edge of the pool without hesitation, without even stopping, and plunged headfirst into the pool.

The icy pool water instantly engulfed his entire body. He struggled desperately underwater for a few seconds before surfacing and gasping for air.

The first thing he did after surfacing was to look back.

There was no sign of the bear on the shore.

He had just breathed a sigh of relief when a loud splash came from the water.

The water surface looked as if a depth charge had been dropped from above!

The black bear also jumped into the pool.

It's not afraid of water!

The massive black body crashed into the water, and the resulting splash propelled Ota Masaru out of the water, slamming him against the other side of the pool wall.

Before he could recover from the shock of the impact, he saw the huge black shadow approaching him. It was swimming very fast in the water, much faster than a creature of that size should be.

He let out a desperate scream, half-choked by the pool water.

Then came the sound of water splashing and churning.

The chaotic water surface gradually returned to calm after a few seconds.

The color of the pool water is changing at an alarming rate.

It changed from a clear, deep blue to a murky, dark red color.

Some bubbles slowly rose from underwater to the surface, then burst, leaving behind ripples that were gradually expanding.

After the last person rushed in, Lin Shen slammed the villa door shut from the inside.

Click—the door lock clicked shut.

The room fell silent for a moment.

Yuanzi leaned against the wall and slowly slid down to the ground, panting heavily as if she had just finished a marathon.

Ayako Suzuki helped Chikako Ikeda sit down on the bench in the entryway. Chikako Ikeda had her head down and her hands were still trembling slightly.

Xiaolan stood by the door, her expression one of surprise and uncertainty.

Conan clenched his fists, clearly unwilling to accept defeat!

He glanced at Lin Shen but did not utter a word of reproach.

He could risk his life to save Ota Katsumi, but he couldn't let anyone else risk their life to save him!

Moreover, Lin Shen is also responsible for the safety of Xiao Lan and Yuanzi... Even if Conan were to do this, he might not be able to protect them well.

He could only sigh, his voice filled with a deep sense of inadequacy and dismay.

However, Conan is not the kind of person who wallows in self-blame and guilt; he is rational!

In that instant, he forcibly suppressed all his thoughts!

He took a deep breath, his voice carrying a calmness and decisiveness beyond his years: "Listen to me, everyone!"

"Those black bears will definitely break in later."

"Find the things first, and quickly block the main entrance on the first floor!!"

"Conan's right! Let's move the sofa over there to block the door!" Ran was enlightened by his words and immediately called Sonoko over to help move the sofa.

Sonoko snapped out of her daze and quickly ran over to help Ran move the sofa.

The two had only taken two steps when Lin Shen reached out and stopped them.

He said irritably, "Why are you blocking the gate? Don't listen to Conan's bad ideas."

"If you block the main gate, won't those bears break in through the window?"

Everyone was stunned for a moment.

Then they all turned their heads at the same time and looked at the row of huge floor-to-ceiling windows on the side of the living room.

Those windows stretched from the ceiling to the floor; even an ordinary person could easily smash them apart, let alone a black bear.

Conan stood at the top of the stairs, his expression frozen.

He slapped his forehead, his voice tinged with a rare hint of regret: "I'm...I'm sorry, it's my fault."

He habitually approached the problem by thinking like he would deal with armed criminals.

They blocked the door, held their ground, and waited for rescue.

But the enemy outside wasn't a criminal with a knife, but several black bears weighing three or four hundred kilograms each!

They don't need to go through a door at all!

Conan quickly adjusted his strategy: "President Lin is right!! We can't stay on the first floor any longer, everyone, get to the second floor right now!! Hurry!!"

Before he finished speaking, he took the lead and rushed up the stairs to the second floor.

Ran and Sonoko realized what was happening and quickly followed.

Ayako Suzuki, holding Chikako Ikeda's hand, stumbled and ran upstairs behind Ran.

Lin Shen brought up the rear, responsible for covering their retreat.

Just as he stepped onto the first step of the stairs, the deformed front door behind him made a loud bang.

Bang! !

The entire door was smashed open by a tremendous force, and the sound of shattering wood echoed through the empty living room.

A huge black bear stood at the doorway, lowered its head, and stepped through the door frame, which it had already pounded out of shape, into the entryway. It shook its head and let out a deep roar.

Upon witnessing this scene, the crowd let out a series of short gasps, their feet moving so fast they wished they had two more legs.

Lin Shen rushed up to the second floor, taking three steps at a time, and was the last to step onto the second-floor corridor floor.

He looked back down and saw that the black bear had completely entered the living room, pacing back and forth between the coffee table and the sofa. Its huge paws made heavy footsteps on the floor, like a heavy machine on patrol.

Immediately afterwards, a second black bear squeezed through the broken door.

Two bears paced back and forth in the living room.

In the large room at the end of the second-floor corridor, everyone else had already run inside.

Apart from Conan, who was still standing at the door peering out, Ran, Sonoko, Ayako Suzuki, and Chikako Ikeda were all huddled together in the innermost corner of the room.

Xiaolan poked her head out, her voice betraying a barely concealed unease: "President Lin... what do we do now? What if those bears come upstairs..."

Sonoko sat next to Ran, wanting to say something to liven things up, but her voice was noticeably less confident than usual:

"No, it's alright... Didn't Mr. Lin just kill a bear? He can kill two more, right?"

Ayako Suzuki gave a wry smile and said in a low voice, "But... President Hayashi is already very tired. We all saw him fighting that bear just now."

Chikako Ikeda huddled in a corner, hugging her knees, her voice filled with a desperate, almost tearful voice: "We...we're really going to die here, aren't we?"
