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

Shiho Miyano hid behind a marble pillar, her hands unconsciously clenched so tightly that her nails dug into her flesh without her noticing.

She huddled close to the base of the pillar, her breathing very low.

Her gaze was fixed on the devastated battlefield ahead.

The short-haired woman lay sprawled among the shards of the perfume counter, a large patch of dark red staining her body.

The female customer lay motionless behind the shelf, blood trickling down the cracks in the floor.

These two people couldn't even last three minutes before they were both eliminated.

The female sales assistant next to her, who was also the last bodyguard in the organization, had completely changed her expression at this moment.

The composure of "everything is under control" that I felt just moments ago has vanished without a trace, replaced by an extremely tense and sense of crisis!

Her lips were pressed into a thin line, her knuckles gripping the pistol were white, and there was a fine layer of sweat on her forehead.

She knew the two deceased colleagues.

The short-haired woman is a notorious tough character in the field team. She is said to have been recruited by the organization after retiring from the special forces. She is top-notch in close combat and firearms handling.

That female customer was no pushover either; she was skilled in urban warfare and covering evacuations, and had participated in several escort missions for important targets without ever making a mistake.

However, these two people were picked off one by one by a robber leader like they were being shot at!

Shiho Miyano's voice was low, carrying a hint of tension she herself was unaware of: "Oh no... I'm afraid we can't escape now."

The saleswoman didn't turn around; she just gripped her pistol tightly, her eyes fixed on the edge of the shelf in front of her.

She lowered her voice and said, "Hang in there a little longer. The others are already on their way to provide support."

She took a quick breath and added, "You stay here and don't move. I'll go and distract him."

After saying that, she didn't give Shiho Miyano any time to react. She took out a small makeup mirror from her pocket, and carefully extended it along the edge of the marble pillar.

The mirror was adjusted to a different angle, reflecting the scene on the other side.

The saleswoman spotted the gang leader, who was carrying a rugged black rifle and walking slowly toward them.

She put the mirror away, closed her eyes and quickly went through the route in her mind, then suddenly opened her eyes, turned around decisively, and leaped out from behind the pillar!

She completed the turn and aiming maneuver in mid-air, firing two shots with her pistol the instant she took off!

boom!boom!

She didn't have time to confirm whether she had hit the target. The moment she landed, she rolled to the side of the clothes rack area and quickly disappeared among the rows of high-end ready-to-wear racks.

The entire movement was clean, crisp, and executed in one smooth motion.

Lin Shen hadn't expected that the saleswoman would be so powerful, flying out in an instant.

By the time he realized what was happening, a bullet had struck his shoulder, the impact causing him to sway slightly!

I've been shot!!

Fortunately, Lin Shen had already entered the secret technique—PRECIOUS PROTECTION—before robbing the bank!

The armor was already on his body.

The bullet's kinetic energy was greatly reduced the moment it hit the clothing, and the bullet became embedded between the outer fabric and the protective layer, failing to penetrate it at all.

Lin Shen glanced down at the bullet hole in his shoulder, then looked up at the female sales assistant's figure disappearing in the direction of the clothes rack area, and a feeling of displeasure rose in his heart.

"Fine, you've got guts!!"

He then silently recited PRECIOUS PROTECTION again, fully upgrading his armor, picked up the ShAK-12, and strode after them.

The female sales assistant was indeed quite skilled.

Instead of running in a straight line, she used the rows of metal hangers filled with high-end clothing as cover, keeping her body extremely low and quickly weaving through the gaps beneath the hangers.

Her movement was unpredictable.

It would dart left and right, sometimes suddenly changing direction, sometimes crouching behind a clothes rack for a few seconds before darting off in another direction.

Lin Shen, holding his gun, followed her movement and fired several bullets. The 12.7mm large-caliber bullets pierced through the metal of the clothes hangers and the clothes hanging there, leaving large bullet holes in the wall, but he failed to hit the female sales assistant.

The woman was like a hare that had disappeared into a reed bed, appearing and disappearing unpredictably, always precisely outside the route he had anticipated.

Suddenly, Lin Shen's ShAK-12 emitted a series of clicking sounds as it went empty—it was out of ammo.

He did this on purpose, and then quietly pulled out a ShAK-12 from the system!

He wanted to repeat his old trick, hoping that the female sales assistant would think she had an opportunity to retaliate after hearing that he was out of ammunition.

If she dares to show her face, Lin Shen will let her taste what a real surprise is!

One second, two seconds, three seconds...

The clothes rack area was so quiet it was as if no one was there.

The female sales assistant did not come out.

Lin Shen narrowed his eyes.

He got it.

The other party had no intention of winning against him.

That saleswoman was stalling for time from the very beginning.

Her mission wasn't to kill him at all, but to keep him there until the organization's reinforcements arrived.

Lin Shen quickly estimated the time in his mind. At least four or five minutes had passed since the first gunshot.

The Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department's SWAT team should have set off long ago, and the people who organized it are probably near this luxury goods store, not too far away.

Judging by the time, it should be almost here!

We can't delay any longer!

Lin Shen no longer hesitated.

He slung the ShAK-12 over his back, then flipped his right hand and retrieved the first grenade from his system space!

He pulled the safety pin and threw it towards the left corner of the clothes rack area.

Lin Shen hadn't started yet, so of course he didn't know where the saleswoman was hiding.

So he took out a second one and threw it to the right.

The third one, throw it forward to the center.

The fourth one, the fifth one...

He threw one grenade after another without any pause or hesitation in aiming, as if they were free, throwing a total of nineteen grenades in one go.

Each one precisely covers every possible corner in the clothes hanger area where people might hide!

Left front, right front, middle, back blind spot, behind the cashier, fitting room door...

No blind spots were overlooked.

boom!

Boom boom boom boom boom!!

The explosions were so loud that they were almost indistinguishable from one another.

Flames and thick smoke rose simultaneously from every corner of the clothes rack area, and the entire area was covered by a series of explosions. Shattered clothes racks, burning fabric, and broken wooden boards were blown into the air by the shockwaves and then fell like raindrops.

Amidst the series of deafening explosions, a short, agonizing scream rang out.

The sound lasted for less than a second before being completely drowned out by the roar of the next explosion.

Boom boom boom boom!!

The explosions finally stopped.

The thick smoke slowly dissipated.

That shopping area, which was once filled with high-end ready-to-wear clothing, has now become a charred and desolate ruin.

The clothes hanger tilted and broke, and the clothes were blown to pieces and scattered all over the ground. Several places were still burning, emitting thick black smoke.

The air was thick with the smell of gunpowder and burning, making one's throat tighten.

Lin Shen stood at the edge of the ruins, lowered his raised hand, and examined the scene ahead through the billowing smoke!

No matter how fast she runs, she can't possibly be as fast as I can throw a grenade!

That female sales assistant must have become a hero fragment!

He nodded in satisfaction.

If your skills aren't up to par, make up for it with firepower.

Lacking skill, yet wielding great force, bricks fly.

Lin Shen solves problems in the most simple and unpretentious way!

So you're good at hiding, huh?

Then I won't let you hide anymore!

The whole place exploded!!
