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

The underwater battle was even more intense than expected.

Lin Shen glanced at the densely packed swarm of sharks charging towards him and decided not to discuss any tactics.

Suppressive firepower is the only way to win.

Holding a QBS-06 underwater assault rifle in each hand, he turned and swept his gaze around at Xiaolan and the others, signaling everyone to come closer, form a circle, and each guard one side.

Ran, Sonoko, and Yukiko quickly swam to his side, leaned against him, and spread out to form a small defensive formation.

Then, the battle officially began.

Xiaolan's hand was still shaking as she held the gun. It took her a while to get used to it before she could finally steady the aim.

Sonoko was so nervous that she couldn't even close her mouth properly, blowing bubbles while pointing the gun forward.

Although Yukiko's hands were trembling, she was at least able to keep her expression in check.

The first wave of sharks rushed in.

The three men pulled the trigger almost simultaneously.

Puff puff puff puff —

The QBS-06 spewed out a series of white bubbles from its muzzle, and a fifteen-centimeter-long metal dart, trailing a thin water streak, shot towards the oncoming swarm of sharks.

The first shark that charged ahead was hit by three or four darts at the same time. Its body convulsed violently, it rolled over, and sank.

Seeing their companion shot through, the sharks behind instinctively swung their tails and scattered.

But instead of fleeing, they began to circle around Lin Shen and his group, searching for a new breakthrough.

Lin Shen narrowed his eyes, quickly surveyed the situation, and glanced down.

The water is only six or seven meters deep, and they can even reach the seabed. That makes things much easier.

He pointed to the ground beneath his feet and then gestured to Ran, Sonoko, and Yukiko: "The ground is fine. We're standing on the seabed. Just focus on what's in front of us and above us."

Once they understood this, the group felt much more at ease.

You don't need to worry about the attacks from below; you only need to focus your attention on the direction you are responsible for.

Ran, Sonoko, and Yukiko each took charge of one side, while Hayashi Shin alone held off the shark coming from above.

While screaming in her heart, "I'm so scared, I'm so scared," Xiaolan bit her lip tightly and fired a barrage of shots at the shark charging straight at her.

Fifteen-centimeter metal darts shot forward with a whoosh. A shark couldn't dodge in time and was pinned to its side. In pain, it lashed out with its tail and turned to plunge deeper into the water.

The situation was similar on the other side of the garden; the muzzle of the gun in her hand was shaking like a leaf, and the bullets flew out crookedly.

But luckily, she managed to hit a shark in the eye with her random shots. The shark thrashed wildly in pain, throwing its companions around it into disarray.

But there were just too many sharks. After driving one away, another would come in from the side, its mouth agape, revealing a row of sharp teeth, and it would bite straight at Xiaolan.

Xiao Lan turned pale and quickly turned her gun around, firing several shots at the gaping mouth.

The shark was knocked to the side, its face covered in blood and darts, and slunk away in disgrace.

Yukiko was also in grave danger. A particularly large shark suddenly appeared from behind her. Startled, she turned around and fired a burst of bullets, all of which hit the shark in the head.

The shark's eyes rolled back, it froze for a moment, and then slowly sank downwards.

Each assault rifle magazine contains only twenty-five rounds.

In this frantic, high-explosive firing mode, twenty-five rounds are gone in the blink of an eye.

Sonoko emptied her magazine first; she pulled the trigger, but nothing came out.

Next up was Xiaolan. She was so nervous that she forgot to count the bullets, and only realized she was out of ammunition when the gun could only make empty sounds.

Yukiko wasn't doing much better. She gritted her teeth and pulled the trigger a few more times, but all that was left was a dry clicking sound.

All three of them panicked at the same time.

As they watched the shark relentlessly approaching, despair filled their hearts!

Sonoko's mind was racing. Oh no, oh no, oh no, this is really the end...

At this critical moment, Lin Shen made his move.

While using one hand to steady the shark that was constantly charging downwards from above, he used the other hand to pull a new, fully magazineed assault rifle from his system space and handed it to Sonoko, who was closest to him.

Then he took out another one and handed it to Ran, and then another one to Yukiko, his movements clean, efficient, and seamless.

Now he doesn't give them any time to change magazines at all; there's no time, and there's no need.

Use guns when they're available, and replace them with new ones when they're empty.

The group had completely stopped thinking about how many guns Lin Shen had, and had no interest in figuring out where he had pulled them out from.

Terrified people only want to grasp at anything that can save them, and the gun Lin Shen handed over was their lifeline.

After switching guns, the group continued firing.

The scene was spectacular: four people submerged in water, each holding an assault rifle.

Bullets and darts intertwined to form an impenetrable net of fire, forcing the surrounding shark swarm to retreat in disarray.

The seawater was filled with blood mist and afterimages of arrow-shaped darts, blurring the view.

The shark swarm began to scatter.

They had roamed the oceans for decades and had never encountered a situation where they could only be attacked.

They've bitten dolphins, seals, and even dared to take a bite out of tiger sharks and whales.

But these four strange bipedal creatures seemed to have appeared out of nowhere, and their bodies were covered with endless metal spikes!

Whether it's a frontal assault or a flanking attack, the end result is always the same: you get riddled with holes.

The entire group of sharks began to feel afraid.

Sonoko's mindset is also changing.

At first, she was so scared that she was shaking and pulling the trigger was entirely driven by adrenaline.

After one round, she realized that the sharks seemed unable to get in at all.

After another round of fire, she noticed that the sharks were even starting to dodge her bullets.

Later, her fear gradually turned into excitement!

Lin Shen managed to hold the upper level tightly all by herself, so she and Xiao Lan only needed to deal with their own direction. The pressure wasn't as great as they had imagined.

She grew bolder, firing with increasing fervor, bubbles escaping her mouth as if silently roaring: Come on! Again!

Come at me and bite me if you dare!

She even wanted to give a shark the middle finger.

Although Ran wasn't as excited as Sonoko, she also discovered that those sharks were actually afraid of pain and could feel fear.

It was nothing like the legends made it out to be.

They also experience fear and may retreat.

As long as you shoot accurately and ruthlessly enough, they will dodge.

She started shooting more and more steadily: aim, pull the trigger, switch guns, and aim again.

Her movements became smoother and smoother, and she even felt that this was similar to whack-a-mole in an amusement park. Whichever shark dared to show its head, she would whack it.

Yukiko was much calmer than before.

Although she hasn't reached the point where "sharks are nothing special," at least she's no longer shaking so much that she can't even hold a gun.

As she watched the sharks scrambling to dodge the rain of darts, her fear gradually subsided.

The shark swarm was completely overwhelmed by this barrage of firepower.

They stared intently at the four people in front of them, their eyes filled with unprecedented confusion and fear. What kind of creatures were these two-legged beasts?

Where did all these weapons come from?

After fighting for so long, the bullets haven't decreased at all?

Watching their kind sink belly-up one by one to the bottom of the sea, they finally retreated.

Animal instincts are screaming an alarm: if they charge again, their entire species will be wiped out today.

One shark turned around first, then the second, the third, and the whole group of sharks fled in panic with their tails between their legs, not daring to look back.

A dozen or so gray-black dorsal fins disappeared rapidly into the distant seawater, like the receding tide.

All that remained in their field of vision was a sea of ​​floating blood mist, the gradually sinking carcasses of sharks, and four humans with pounding hearts and heavy breathing.

Ran, Sonoko, and Yukiko all stood there, stunned.

They looked at each other, then at the shark carcasses that had sunk to the bottom of the lake, somewhat incredulous. Had they really driven the sharks away?

They really, truly drove back the huge swarm of sharks!

Sonoko was the first to erupt in excitement. She dropped the gun in her hand, waved her hands wildly, and let out a silent scream.

Xiao Lan couldn't help but break into a big smile. She turned to look at Lin Shen, her eyes filled with an almost worshipful light.

Yukiko let out a long breath, feeling her heart finally return to her chest.

After several people surfaced, Sonoko could no longer control herself.

She screamed excitedly, hugged Lin Shen's neck, and kissed him hard on the cheek: "Lin, you're amazing!!"

After kissing Lin Shen, she turned around and kissed Xiao Lan and Yukiko on the cheek as well.

She was so excited, like a firework that had just been lit, radiating joy from head to toe.

Lin Shen was somewhat surprised by her kiss.

But he adapted very quickly. He looked at Sonoko's excited and crazy appearance, and a sly glint flashed in his eyes.

Then he shouted loudly, pretending to be extremely excited, and reached out to hug Xiaolan, giving her a generous kiss on the cheek.

Xiaolan was stunned, and two red clouds quickly rose to her face. She subconsciously glanced at the garden next to her.

Sonoko saw it, but she was so engrossed in her excitement that she didn't notice at all, and she secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Lin Shen turned his head and saw Yukiko still standing beside him, breathing slightly. The afterglow of surviving the ordeal left her in a daze.

Without saying a word, he hugged Yukiko and kissed her on the cheek, then kissed her again. On the third kiss, he simply aimed at her lips and kissed her directly.

Yukiko was taken aback by this sudden action.

But she didn't push him away.

Perhaps because he had just come back from the brink of death and his brain had not yet fully returned to normal functioning, or perhaps because his gratitude towards Lin Shen was just too strong.

She was only stunned for a moment, then took it as a kind of ecstatic celebration and let him kiss her.

She even thought to herself, "Forget it, I'm already lucky to be alive. If I want to kiss you, I'll just do it."

Regardless, this man really did save their lives.

A kiss wouldn't be a bad deal.
