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

the next morning.

Sunlight streamed through the floor-to-ceiling windows into the dining room of the Suzuki villa, making the sumptuous breakfast look especially tempting.

The fried egg is golden brown, the bacon is glistening, and the perfectly toasted bread exudes the aroma of butter. Next to it is a pot of steaming freshly ground coffee.

Lin Shen walked into the restaurant looking refreshed, as if he hadn't been the one to fight those fierce battles yesterday.

He sat down at the dining table and saw Tomoko Suzuki, Yukiko, and Conan already seated. He greeted them with a smile, "Good morning, everyone. Did you sleep well last night?"

Tomoko Suzuki sat in the main seat, holding a cup of coffee, and said, "It's...it's alright."

His mind was filled with thoughts of Lin Shen taking down the CIA.

Although Tomizawa Tetsuji took the dead CIA agent with him, thus taking the blame, what if the CIA finds out?

The Suzuki Group might be implicated.

So she tossed and turned until dawn before she finally drifted off to sleep.

Conan wasn't in much better shape either.

His small body sat in the chair with a glass of milk in front of him, but his eyes were clearly vacant, obviously still thinking about the shady dealings between Tomizawa Tetsuji and the CIA.

Hearing Lin Shen's voice, he snapped out of his reverie, glanced at the source, and casually replied, "Morning..."

Yukiko seemed to be in good spirits, but her expression was rather bitter.

She held a glass of juice, sipping it while sighing, "Ugh... I overdid it at the gym last night, and now my whole body aches, and I can't even lift my arms."

As she spoke, she raised her arm, revealing a bitter face.

Lin Shen smiled and was about to reply when footsteps came from the direction of the stairs.

Ayako came down.

She was wearing a beige dress today, her hair was gently draped over her shoulders, and she looked radiant, with an undisguised sense of ease and joy in her eyes.

She walked into the restaurant and greeted everyone with a smile: "Good morning, everyone."

Lin Shen looked up at her, a faint smile playing on his lips.

The moment Ayako met his gaze, her face flushed slightly, as if she had been burned, and she quickly looked away.

She lowered her head, walked to her seat, sat down, picked up a napkin, laid it out, took the breakfast brought by the maid, and quietly began to eat.

She appeared calm on the surface, but inside she was pounding like a rabbit.

Lin Shen's words of advice last night made her feel like a huge weight had been lifted off her shoulders.

All the worries and anxieties weighing on my mind vanished overnight, leaving me feeling so light and airy, as if I were about to float away!

She was eating her fried egg with her head down when footsteps sounded again.

Xiao Lan came too.

She was also wearing a simple set of home clothes, with her hair simply tied back.

She walked into the restaurant and saw that most of the tables were already full. She paused slightly, then smiled and greeted everyone with a "Good morning, everyone..."

She sat down in her seat, took the breakfast brought by the maid, and ate it in small bites.

Her gaze would occasionally drift uncontrollably toward Ayako's direction.

Looking at Ayako's gentle and dignified appearance, Xiaolan felt a surge of extremely complex emotions.

In her memory, Ayako-neechan was always the perfect wife and mother.

She speaks eloquently, behaves gently and elegantly, and is almost the template for a lady from a prominent Japanese family.

But this gentle and dignified woman... last night...

Xiaolan bit her lip, her ears turning slightly red.

Her mind was in turmoil, but if she were to be honest with herself, she would find a faint sense of relief amidst those complex emotions—it turned out she wasn't the only one feeling this way.

If even a perfect woman like Ayako-neechan would do that... then what she did last night doesn't seem so outrageous after all.

Thinking about it this way, the guilt she felt suddenly didn't seem so heavy anymore.

As she was lost in thought, another series of footsteps approached.

The garden has arrived.

She seemed to be in good spirits, but there was a distinct languor in her gait.

She walked into the restaurant while yawning, glanced at the people at the tables, and greeted them with a smile: "Everyone got up pretty early."

She pulled out a chair, sat down, took a sip of milk, and then picked up a fork to start eating breakfast.

As she ate, her gaze darted back and forth between her older sister Ayako and Ran.

Xiaolan noticed Sonoko's gaze and lowered her head somewhat uncomfortably.

Ayako noticed her sister's gaze, but she only paused slightly, maintaining her elegant dining posture as if nothing had happened.

Sonoko silently sighed to herself: Ah—I knew it!

A truly outstanding man can never escape being watched!

She wasn't angry, nor was she jealous; rather, she felt a sense of "I knew it" resignation.

After all, among all the people she knew, Lin Shen was indeed the most outstanding.

He is capable, responsible, and can listen to girls and respond to them seriously.

Aside from his lustful nature, there's almost nothing else to criticize about him.

Inside the restaurant, everyone was lost in their own thoughts, and the air was quiet for a short while.

Just then, Lin Shen's phone, which was on the table, suddenly vibrated.

He glanced to the side and saw the caller ID: Tetsuji Tomizawa.

He picked up his phone and gestured to the people at the table: "I'm taking this call."

Then he got up, walked to the side, and answered the phone.

"President Hayashi! Good morning!" came the loud and energetic voice of Tetsuji Tomizawa from the other end of the phone.

It was clear from his voice that last night's events hadn't left him with any psychological trauma: "Thanks to you last night!"

"I've been thinking about it, and just saying thank you isn't enough... How about this!"

"I'm taking you on a day and night sea voyage! Hop aboard my luxury yacht!"

"I'll enjoy the sea breeze, go fishing, have a drink, and really relax!"

Lin Shen heard this.

Luxury yacht?

He had never actually sat in it before.

In the past, when I watched cartoons, I would see rich people going out to sea on huge, luxurious yachts. They could have parties on the deck and ride jet skis at the stern...

I don't know if it's really as exaggerated as in the movies.

He barely hesitated before smiling and saying, "Sure, Chairman Tomizawa, I'll definitely accept your kind invitation."

Upon hearing this, Tomizawa Tetsuji laughed even louder: "Alright! It's a deal then!"

"Get ready to call me, I'll send someone to pick you up from the villa!"

The two chatted and laughed for a few more minutes before hanging up the phone.

Lin Shen put away his phone, returned to the dining table, and sat down. He looked at the people at the table, his tone tinged with excitement:

"Chairman Tomizawa invited me to spend a day and a night on his luxury yacht. Anyone interested in coming along?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Tomoko Suzuki's expression became slightly subtle.

She looked at Lin Shen with a thoughtful expression, as if she was considering something.

But she didn't say anything.

Ayako was the first to shake her head, her voice gentle: "I won't go... I was too tired from playing volleyball on the beach yesterday, I want to stay at the villa today and get some rest."

Lin Shen nodded and looked at Xiao Lan.

Xiaolan waved her hands repeatedly, a slightly unnatural blush on her face: "I...me too, I didn't sleep well last night, I wanted to catch up on some sleep today..."

As she spoke, her voice grew softer and softer as she lowered her head and poked at the fried egg on her plate with her fork.

She was only released last night after Ayako left... Of course, she was tormented for quite a while after that before she could return to her room.

Lin Shen looked at the garden again.

Sonoko yawned, waved her hand, and said lazily, "Ah, going out to sea is so boring, it's just fishing or diving."

"I'm not interested in fishing. I've already gone diving yesterday afternoon... so I won't go. I'll just stay at the villa today."

She was the last one to get back to her room last night, it was almost six o'clock, and she was completely exhausted!

I must have used all my strength to get up early today, to go out to sea?

She probably just fell asleep as soon as she got on the yacht.

Yukiko's eyes lit up: "Huh? A luxury yacht? That sounds interesting! Can I come along?"

Conan also raised his hand: "I'll go too."

Lin Shen nodded: "Okay, then we'll go together."

He then looked at Tomoko Suzuki and politely asked, "Mrs. Suzuki, are you coming along too?"

Tomoko Suzuki stared at Lin Shen for a long time.

Seeing his natural and completely ignorant expression, it was clear that this guy was completely unaware of the problem.

She couldn't help but curl the corners of her lips slightly, her tone carrying a hint of barely suppressed laughter: "I'm not going... You young people go have fun, have some fun."

After she finished speaking, the corners of her mouth couldn't help but curve upwards slightly, and then she picked up her coffee and slowly took a sip.

Lin Shen looked at her and felt inexplicably strange.

He couldn't quite put his finger on what was wrong, but he just felt that Mrs. Suzuki seemed to be watching some kind of funny joke.

He couldn't figure it out, so he simply stopped thinking about it, picked up his coffee and took a sip: "Then let's get ready to leave after we finish eating."
