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

Lin Shen walked in front, holding a pistol, with Xiao Lan and Xia Jiang following closely behind him. The three of them walked along the corridor toward the elevator.

The walls on both sides of the corridor were riddled with bullet holes, and several of the fluorescent light tubes overhead were broken, while the rest flickered and made a buzzing sound.

The things underfoot were either broken glass or scattered pieces of tableware, making a crunching sound as I walked.

Lin Shen walked steadily, each step firm, his eyes quickly scanning the front and sides.

He had walked through this environment countless times, and seeing the corpses lying scattered on the ground, he felt no emotion whatsoever.

Among the corpses were waiters in white uniforms, guests in suits, and bodyguards in black tactical vests.

He didn't even glance at it, simply stepping over and continuing on his way. But Xiao Lan and Xia Jiang, who were following behind him, were different.

Every few steps, the two of them would gasp in horror at the sight of the corpses beneath their feet.

Ran was a little better off, after all, she had seen quite a few crime scenes with Kogoro Mouri, but after seeing so many... she was still very scared.

Xia Jiang, on the other hand, is a pampered young lady who grew up in a wealthy family and has never seen such a scene before.

She froze when she saw the first corpse, and Xiaolan had to push her along from behind.

By the time she saw the third and fourth bodies, her legs began to tremble like a leaf, her face was deathly pale, and she could only keep from screaming by biting her lip.

Lin Shen, who was walking ahead, suddenly stopped.

Xiao Lan and Xia Jiang were carefully walking around a corpse with their heads down, not noticing that he had stopped, and bumped into his back one after the other.

The two of them exclaimed "Ouch!" in unison.

Xiaolan rubbed her chest, which had been bumped, and quickly asked, "President, why did you stop?"

Lin Shen remained silent.

He stood about five meters away in the corridor, looking at the female corpse lying on the ground.

He remained silent for several seconds before speaking in a complex tone, a tone that was hard to define as either speechless or helpless:

Xia Jiang, your sister is dead.

Lin Shen was devastated at that moment.

He stared at Qiu Jiang's body lying on the ground, its chest stained crimson, and only one thought occupied his mind.

Are you fucking kidding me?

The deal he and Akie had agreed on: he promised to help her obtain the inheritance rights, and his reward would be fifty-one yen...

However, now Qiujiang is dead.

Who is he going to ask for this debt from?

All that work for nothing.

All that work was for nothing.

He cursed the person who killed Qiu Jiang eight hundred times in his heart, but his expression only showed a slight frown, revealing the turmoil in his heart.

After hearing Lin Shen's words, Xia Jiang paused for a few seconds, then walked around Lin Shen and took two steps forward.

When she saw clearly that the person lying on the ground was indeed her sister Qiujiang, tears welled up in her eyes.

She covered her mouth, trying hard not to cry out, but tears still streamed down her cheeks.

Qiu Jiang has indeed treated her badly. From childhood to adulthood, he has always competed with her, fought with her, and even said a lot of bad things about her behind her back.

But in the end, she was her own sister.

Seeing his own sister lying so coldly and lifelessly on the corridor floor, the sadness was something he couldn't fake.

Xiao Lan stood beside him, patted Xia Jiang on the shoulder, then looked up at Lin Shen, her voice tinged with hesitation:

"Is...is it Xiao Wuqian's?"

Lin Shen shook his head firmly: "No."

He was absolutely certain.

Because Xiao Wu had already gone to the top-floor suite where Hatamoto Gozo was located, following the direction he had indicated, and was not on this floor at all.

The other party had absolutely no reason to come this way.

Even if they took a detour, they should still have bumped into each other.

Xiao Lan was somewhat surprised: "Not Xiao Wu? Then who could it be?"

Lin Shen glanced at Qiu Jiang on the ground, then at the half-open window in the distance, and slowly uttered two names: "Either it's Hatamoto Hokuro, or it's Hatamoto Shoji."

Upon hearing this, Xia Jiang raised her tear-streaked face and repeated incredulously, "Why...it was them?"

Lin Shen didn't beat around the bush and directly stated his judgment: "It's very simple."

"If I can get rid of the other heirs, I will be the sole heir."

He paused for a moment, "What's more, now that Xiao Wu has caused such a big mess on the ship, it's a perfect opportunity to fish in troubled waters."

"If you miss this opportunity, there won't be another one."

After hearing these words, Xiaolan and Xiajiang both opened their mouths, but couldn't say anything.

They find it hard to accept that someone would be so cruel as to harm their own family for the sake of inheriting the family fortune!

But at the same time, they also knew in their hearts that what Lin Shen said was very likely true.

Just then, a series of hurried footsteps suddenly came from the corner of the corridor ahead.

The three of them looked up at the same time.

Two bodyguards dressed in black suits, each holding a pistol, strode out from around the corner.

Upon seeing Xia Jiang, they visibly relaxed. One of the bodyguards, with a square face, quickly asked, "Miss Xia Jiang, are you alright? We've been looking for you for a long time."

Xia Jiang was still reeling from the shock of Qiu Jiang's death, and replied weakly, "I...I'm fine."

The bodyguard took two steps forward and said in a very sincere tone, "It's good that you're alright."

"We are on the chairman's orders to take you to a safe place. Please come with us."

When Xia Jiang heard that it was his grandfather's arrangement, he instinctively wanted to take a step and follow.

Then Lin Shen stretched out his arm and blocked her way.

Xia Jiang was taken aback: "President Lin, what's wrong?"

Lin Shen did not answer her.

He looked at the two bodyguards, his gaze lingering on their faces for a few seconds, before asking:

"Since you're acting on the chairman's orders, why doesn't the chairman just call Xia Jiang?"

He paused for a moment, then said, "There's a signal here."

The two bodyguards visibly stiffened upon hearing this.

The square-faced bodyguard was the first to react, quickly explaining, "This happened very suddenly, the chairman has a lot of things to deal with..."

Lin Shen interrupted him before he could finish, asking, "Then why don't you just call Xia Jiang directly?"

"Don't tell me you don't have her phone number."

The square-faced bodyguard opened his mouth, but for a moment he didn't know how to answer.

His Adam's apple bobbed up and down, but he couldn't utter a single word.

The bodyguard with the pointed chin next to him was much more decisive than him.

He reached for the pistol at his waist and said menacingly, "Why waste time talking to them? Just kill them all here!"

He was indeed very quick.

Drawing the gun, loading it, and aiming—all in one smooth motion.

But he was fast, and Lin Shen was even faster.

boom!boom!

The two gunshots rang out almost simultaneously.

The bodyguard with the pointed chin had a bloody hole in his forehead. Before he could even fully raise the gun in his hand, he fell straight backward like a puppet whose strings had been pulled out, his head hitting the floor with a dull thud.

Lin Shen was still standing.

There was a charred bullet hole in his suit jacket, but he stood there motionless, without even frowning.

He turned his gun around and fired another shot.

The square-faced bodyguard reacted quickly. The instant Lin Shen finished off his companion, he had already sidestepped behind a fire extinguisher in the corner, then leaned out halfway and fired three shots at Lin Shen.

The bullet hit the wall next to the forest, splashing up a cloud of white powder.

Lin Shen didn't even glance at the flying shards. He raised his hand but barely looked. With a bang, a bullet hole appeared between the eyebrows of the square-faced bodyguard.

His body slid slowly down the wall, leaving a dark red mark on it.

The sudden gunfight ended in less than five seconds.

Xiao Lan and Xia Jiang stood behind Lin Shen, completely bewildered.

They only heard two gunshots, and then the two bodyguards fell to the ground. They didn't even get a clear look at what happened.

When Xiaolan came to her senses, her first reaction was not to look at the two corpses on the ground, but to rush straight to Lin Shen, grab his arms and look him up and down.

When she saw the still-smoking bullet hole in Lin Shen's suit jacket, her heart felt like it had been squeezed tightly.

She reached out and lifted his suit jacket to peek inside.

I could see that only the clothes were torn, but the bullet hadn't penetrated the skin, and there was no blood seeping out.

She finally breathed a long sigh of relief, but tears welled up and streamed down her face uncontrollably.

She hugged Lin Shen tightly, burying her head in his chest, her voice filled with grievance and lingering fear: "President, you're alright...that's great."

"I thought... I thought you..." She couldn't finish her sentence and started crying while hugging him.

Lin Shen was taken aback by her hug, then gently patted her back, his voice tinged with amusement:

"Don't worry, I have a habit of wearing a bulletproof vest when I go out."

He comforted Xiaolan for a few moments, and after she calmed down a bit, he turned to look at Xia Jiang, whose face was still pale, and his tone became a little somber:

"It seems there's something wrong with these bodyguards."

Upon hearing this, Xia Jiang's heart, which had just calmed down a little, jumped again, and his voice carried a clear sense of unease:

"Then...then my grandfather..."

Xiaolan wiped away her tears, took a deep breath, and tried her best to control her emotions: "Then let's hurry up and go find Chairman Hatamoto."

After she finished speaking, she glanced down at the pistol that had slipped from the bodyguard's hand on the ground, hesitated for a moment, and then bent down to pick it up.

Lin Shen raised an eyebrow in surprise when he saw Xiao Lan holding the pistol, his tone carrying a hint of curiosity:

"Xiao Lan...did you also learn shooting in Hawaii?"

Xiaolan shook her head and gripped the pistol tighter: "No. But I've heard my dad talk about it, so I roughly know how to use it."

She looked down at the gun in her hand. "I just don't know how accurate it is."

Hearing this answer, Lin Shen couldn't help but smile, his tone filled with admiration: "It's good that you have the courage."

He looked at her and said, "In that case, I'll leave the rest to you."

Xiao Lan was told that she was entrusted with an important task, not as a burden to be protected, but as a partner who could fight alongside her!

Her eyes lit up immediately.

She nodded vigorously, gripping the pistol even tighter: "Okay! I understand! Leave the rest to me!"

Lin Shen turned around, picked up his gun, and continued walking forward.

Xia Jiang followed, while Xiao Lan nervously took charge of covering the rear. Following what she had seen on TV, she walked sideways to make it easier to observe whether any enemies appeared behind her.
