I'm in Detective Conan, and I start with the Grand Theft Auto system.
Chapter 123 Escape
Lin Shen carried Conan back to the second-floor room in one swift motion.
He kicked the door back with his heel, and the door slammed shut with a bang, causing dust to fall from the door frame.
He put Conan on the ground and leaned against the door to catch his breath.
My heart wasn't actually beating that fast, but after running around like that, carrying Conan and being chased by a bear, I still broke a sweat.
The four women in the corner of the room stood up abruptly when they saw the two of them return.
Yuanzi was the first to rush up, her voice trembling noticeably: "Mr. Lin! What was that commotion downstairs just now... gunshots and a bear's roar?! What happened?!"
Xiao Lan also walked over quickly, her gaze unconsciously sweeping over Lin Shen's body from head to toe. Only after confirming that he had no new wounds did her tone relax slightly:
"President, have you dealt with all the bears outside? I just heard a bear howling downstairs..."
She added the last sentence, somewhat uncertainly.
Lin Shen did not answer immediately.
He first exhaled slowly before speaking, his tone deliberately grave: "We're running out of bullets! There's one last bear we haven't dealt with yet, it's downstairs."
The room was silent for about a second.
Chikako Ikeda's face turned pale instantly, her voice trembling with the urge to cry: "Another one?! How can there be so many?! How many bears are there in these mountains?!"
No one could answer her question.
Lin Shen did not respond to her.
He did not dwell on the question of "how many bears are left".
He turned and walked to the small balcony that came with the room, put his hands on the railing, and looked down.
The second floor isn't very high, and below it is a lawn with fairly thick grass.
You're unlikely to break your leg if you jump down; at most, your foot will go numb for a moment.
He turned around and, with a single sentence, shifted everyone's attention to a feasible direction: "Before the black bear comes up, we'll jump from the second floor. That height is no problem."
That's all.
Short, clear, and with an air of certainty that "if I say it's okay, then it's okay."
Like a reassuring pill thrown into the chaotic atmosphere, it instantly gave the previously helpless group a direction to follow.
After a moment of silence, Xiaolan was the first to move.
She walked quickly to the edge of the balcony, bent down and looked down at the lawn, estimating its height and distance.
Then she straightened up and said very decisively, "The president is right, this height is fine. I'll go down first."
As soon as she finished speaking, she braced herself on the railing with both hands, nimbly flipped over, and tumbled out of the balcony.
She bent her knees in mid-air to cushion the impact, landing firmly on the lawn outside. Her slightly bent knees absorbed the force of the impact, making almost no sound.
Xiao Lan straightened up, raised her head, and called out, "Next! I'll catch you!"
"I'm the second one!" Conan saw that the others were a little nervous, so he stepped forward.
Despite his small stature, he was surprisingly agile in climbing the railing. With a push of his hands, he turned to the side and flipped over like a nimble little animal. The height from which he fell after letting go outside the railing wasn't too high for him.
Xiao Lan opened her arms below and caught him steadily, placing him firmly on the grass.
After Conan stopped, he said, "Look everyone, I'm fine!! You can jump down without worry!"
Sonoko stood by the window, glanced down, and her legs visibly went weak.
"Xiao Lan...you have to catch me!!" she said, taking a deep breath, closing her eyes and jumping forward as if she were jumping into water, leaping off the balcony.
Xiao Lan caught her steadily from below, and the moment she caught her, she rolled onto the grass next to her to completely dissipate the impact.
The garden rolled half a circle on the grass before stopping, lay on its back for two seconds, then scrambled to its feet and stood on the grass, panting heavily.
Her voice was still heavy with exhaustion, but she was trying to calm herself: "Sister! Ms. Ikeda! It's safe! You can get down!"
However, neither Ayako Suzuki nor Chikako Ikeda are good at sports.
They stood by the window, looking at each other, neither daring to make the first move.
The railing less than a meter high at the edge of the balcony seemed to them like a dividing line into an abyss.
Lin Shen stood behind them and heard muffled, heavy footsteps coming from the end of the corridor.
Thump, thump, thump... one after another, getting closer and closer.
The black bear has started climbing the stairs.
The wooden plank groaned in pain under its own weight, and it was not far from the room.
He looked at the two women in front of him who were still hesitating, not wanting to wait even a second longer.
Lin Shen strode forward, reached out, and accurately grabbed the most convenient spot between Ikeda Chikako's collar and belt.
Before Chikako Ikeda could even let out a complete scream, she felt a sudden tightness in her back, her vision spun rapidly, and she was lifted off the ground and flown out of the balcony doorway.
"ah!!!"
She screamed as she flew through the air in a short parabola. Xiao Lan, watching her landing point, caught her steadily and rolled onto the grass to absorb the impact.
After landing, Chikako Ikeda lay on the lawn with her eyes wide open.
She lay on the grass, stunned for about two seconds, before suddenly gasping for breath.
Lin Shen had already turned around to look at the last person.
Ayako Suzuki stood there, her complexion not much better than Chikako Ikeda's, her lips slightly pursed.
She thought Lin Shen would grab her and throw her away just like before, cleanly and neatly, like throwing away a piece of luggage... She had even mentally prepared herself for this.
However, Ayako Suzuki did not receive the hand that reached for the back of her collar.
Lin Shen walked up to her, bent down, put one hand under her knees and the other hand under her back, and steadily lifted her up in his arms.
Ayako Suzuki was completely stunned.
She subconsciously, almost instinctively, reached out and hugged Lin Shen's neck.
Lin Shen glanced down at her and said in a calm tone, "Don't worry, it's nothing."
After he finished speaking, Ayako Suzuki's gaze met Lin Shen's for a very brief moment, and for some reason, her heart raced.
Then, Lin Shen leaped down from the second-floor balcony, holding Suzuki Ayako in his arms. He landed with his knees slightly bent and did not roll.
His core strength stabilized the two of them!
Of course, it looks very stable, but in reality, the panel jumped and deducted more than ten armor points!
But what's the big deal?
A dozen or so points of armor for a cooler look—it's a great deal!
He gently placed Ayako Suzuki on the grass. Once she was steady, he released her grip and, without lingering for a second, turned to the others and shouted, "Let's go!"
