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

When Kogoro Mouri heard that he had to pay back 300 million yen, his expression immediately fell.

I was suddenly burdened with a huge debt!

My life is utterly dark!!

He slumped into his chair as if all his strength had been drained, letting out a wail: "Three hundred million yen... when will we ever be able to pay that back...?"

He sighed for a while, then suddenly turned his head and stared intently at Conan beside him.

Conan felt a chill run down his spine under his gaze: "...What's wrong?"

"What's wrong?" Kogoro Mouri pointed at him. "You're one of the people who were kidnapped, right? You should also pay 100 million yen! I'll contact your parents later!"

Conan's face turned green instantly: "I...I want to pay back the money too?"

"Of course!" Kogoro Mori declared matter-of-factly. "Otherwise, do you expect me to pay back that 100 million yen for you? That's no small sum! I can't afford it!"

I'll call them tomorrow!

Conan opened his mouth, wanting to refute, but found that he couldn't find a reason.

He could only sigh bitterly, shrink back into his seat, and mutter, "I know..."

He started thinking about how to explain to his parents that he had been kidnapped that night and owed 100 million yen.

His dad would probably burst out laughing, and his mom would probably get nervous first and then burst out laughing too... Just thinking about that scene makes his balls ache.

But Conan quickly composed himself, looked up, and his gaze became serious again.

He shifted his position closer to Kogoro Mouri and asked in a low voice, "Uncle Mouri, did the kidnapper in the car say anything to you?"

"Did he show his face? Did he say anything about his identity?"

Kogoro Mouri paused for a moment, recalled that thrilling car chase, and then, as if he had opened a floodgate, began to talk non-stop: "That guy? He was terrifying!"

"Did you know, he first opened fire on the security guards' car with an MP5, and then, feeling the firepower wasn't enough, he pulled a Gatling gun out from under his seat!"

"Do you know how heavy a Gatling gun is? He just rested it on the car window with one hand, 'beep beep beep beep beep,' just like in the movies! No, even more exaggerated than in the movies!"

Xiaolan covered her mouth, her eyes wide with surprise: "Gatling gun...? Isn't that something you only see in movies?"

Sonoko, intrigued, leaned forward slightly. "Really? Was the kidnapper wearing black overalls and smoking a cigar?"

"No, no, he was wearing a mask and a hat, so I couldn't see his face," Kogoro Mouri shook his head, then emphasized again, "But that Gatling gun was real! I saw it with my own eyes!"

"When that thing started spinning, spent bullet casings rained down, and the windows of those security guards' cars across the street shattered like paper!"

Conan sat in the corner, listening quietly to Kogoro Mouri's story, his brows furrowing deeper and deeper. MP5, Gatling gun, precise explosions to destroy vehicles... This kidnapper was definitely not an ordinary person.

Moreover, he had another very obvious characteristic: throughout the entire kidnapping process, his purpose was very clear, his every move was very methodical, and he also had the intention to harm the hostage.

The masked man was killed because he disobeyed orders, but Gu Jingzi, Xiaolan, and Uncle Maoli were not injured.

He extorted two ransoms totaling 350 million, but considering his firepower, that number wasn't actually that high.

He is fully capable of stealing even more money.

What is this guy trying to achieve?

Conan leaned back in his seat, gazing at the streetlights rushing past the car window, lost in thought.

--------------

Lin Shen, carrying two heavy suitcases, pushed open the door to the Miwa Sakura Hotel suite.

The two boxes, one containing fifty million and the other three hundred million, were heavy in his hands, but he walked away with ease.

After all, he had just experienced a high-speed car chase and a gunfight, and the adrenaline was still lingering in his veins, leaving him in a state of subtle excitement.

The living room was lit with warm yellow lights, and Mingmei was sitting on the sofa waiting for him.

She was wearing a casual off-white cardigan, her hair loosely draped over her shoulders. When she saw Lin Shen push the door open and come in, she stood up to greet him and naturally reached out to take the two suitcases from his hands.

Mingmei didn't ask what was inside, nor where he had gone or what he had done that night. She simply asked gently, "Mr. Lin, would you like to have dinner first or take a shower?"

"Let's take a shower first," Lin Shen stretched, making a soft cracking sound on his neck. "I'm tired today. You help me shower."

He spoke very directly, without the slightest hesitation, as if he were stating something perfectly natural.

Akemi's cheeks flushed slightly, but she didn't refuse; she simply nodded gently, "Okay."

………………

Inside the bathroom, steam filled the air, and warm yellow light reflected a soft glow onto the tiles.

After Lin Shen and Ming Mei had been intimate, he leaned back in the bathtub, the warm water enveloping his entire body, which gradually made him relax.

The excitement that had built up overnight from the car chase and gunfight finally began to subside.

Mingmei could clearly sense that Lin Shen was going to be a bit more aggressive tonight!

But she didn't bring up what happened tonight.

She saw the breaking news on TV today—a car chase and gunfight on the streets of Beika Town, with witnesses reporting hearing continuous gunfire resembling heavy weapons. Police have closed several roads for investigation.

When she saw that news, she already had a general idea in her mind.

After all, Lin Shen left in a hurry this afternoon, and when he returned, he carried a faint smell of gunpowder. Coupled with his barely suppressed excitement, the answer was already quite obvious when all these things were put together.

But Mingmei is very smart; she knows what she should ask and what she shouldn't ask.

She just needs to do her own thing.

The two soaked in the water quietly for a while. After recovering, Akemi reported on the progress of the afternoon in a gentle tone: "This afternoon, I rented a pretty big shop on the shopping street in Beika Town. The location is very good, and there is enough foot traffic."

"I plan to renovate that place into a boutique coffee shop. I'll be the nominal manager, and you can be a shareholder."

"In this way, the money on the books can be transferred to your name in the legal form of shareholder dividends after going through several intermediaries."

Lin Shen, with his eyes closed, hummed in agreement: "Okay, you handle it. What about the villa? When can we move in?"

"I had someone clean the whole house this afternoon, and I've ordered new furniture and appliances," Mingmei said. "I can move in tomorrow."

"Okay," Lin Shen opened his eyes, a hint of satisfaction in his gaze, "We'll move tomorrow."

Akemi paused for a moment, then asked, "And... what about Miss Hitomi? Should we take her with us?"

Lin Shen shook his head almost without hesitation: "I don't plan to take her. She's not qualified."

He said this in a very calm tone, without any sense of belittling; it was more like he was stating a fact.

He didn't really trust Xiaotong yet, after all, that place was his normal social circle.

A wanted criminal like Xiaotong would never be allowed in.

If others see this, it will cause trouble.

Besides, he told Xiaotong that they weren't very familiar with each other!

Getting her into your inner circle of life, to live under the same roof, is still a long way off.

Mingmei nodded knowingly and didn't ask any further questions.

She stood up and said, "Then I'll go ask the waiter to bring the food up. It should be ready to eat by the time you finish showering."

Lin Shen nodded, watching Mingmei push open the bathroom door and leave, and couldn't help but sigh: With Mingmei around, things are indeed much easier.

She is efficient, thoughtful, and knows how to keep her distance; she never asks questions she shouldn't.

Most importantly, she arranged every aspect of her life so well that he didn't have to worry about those trivial matters at all.

He leaned against the edge of the bathtub, his wet hair plastered to his forehead, closed his eyes, and opened the system panel in his mind.

A semi-transparent light screen appeared in his field of vision.

[Mission Completed: Kidnapping of the Rich Girl and Main Characters.]

[Warning Star Rating: Two stars.]

[Based on overall performance in this operation, points earned: 80.] [Current total points: 100.]

Lin Shen mentally calculated that he had earned significantly more points than when he robbed the security car last time.

Last time he only got 20 points, but this time he jumped straight to 80 points.

Although only two police stars were awarded, not much different from last time, the difference in points was obvious.

He pondered for a moment and had a rough guess in his mind.

This points system seems to look at more than just the amount of money stolen or the number of wanted stars; it looks at how much trouble you cause.

This time, he engaged in high-speed car chases and gunfights, even using weapons like the Gatling gun, causing quite a stir in the city. As a result, he was awarded points very generously.

He soaked in the water, lost in thought, his gaze fixed on the system store interface.

Currently, the weapons he can obtain for free using cheat codes—Glock, MP5, Gatling gun, and the ordinary equipment he acquired before—are basically sufficient.

However, there are some good items in the system store that cannot be obtained using cheat codes.

For example, real armored cars, more powerful directional bombs, support weapons with a larger payload, and some special items that he hasn't unlocked yet.

He stared at the grayed-out unlocked icons, silently calculating in his mind.
