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

Lin Shen followed behind Asai Narumi, passing through courtyard after courtyard and corridor after corridor.

The Black Rock Mansion was much bigger than he had imagined, ridiculously so.

Some corridors seemed to stretch on forever, the paper doors on both sides trembled slightly in the night breeze, bamboo tubes tapped against stones in the courtyard made a crisp sound, and occasionally a koi carp splashed in the pond.

Along the way, we encountered many patrolling bodyguards—wearing black suits and headphones, walking back and forth in groups of three or five along a fixed route.

Lin Shen was initially on edge, his hand resting on the Glock pistol with a silencer at his waist, ready to make a move at any moment.

But after walking for a while, he realized that he seemed to be overthinking things.

These bodyguards perfectly embody the Japanese workplace tradition of minding their own business.

Everyone focused solely on their assigned patrol route. When they saw unfamiliar colleagues appearing in their assigned area, they would simply nod, offer a quiet greeting, and pass by without even bothering to ask a single question.

For these people, as long as they do their job without any mistakes and complete the patrol route for the night in an orderly manner, they are considered to have fulfilled their duty.

Other matters are not their concern, and they will absolutely not interfere.

If it's not written in the work rules, then it's not their job!

As for what new faces have arrived?

Nobody cares!

That's the HR department's job; it has nothing to do with them.

Lin Shen secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

He and Asai Narumi passed smoothly through three courtyards and two long corridors, and soon the main building, brightly lit, was in the distance.

Once we get through that door and find Kuroiwa Tatsuji's lair, we'll have accomplished most of tonight's task.

But at that moment, an accident occurred.

The two had just turned a corner in the corridor of a villa when they bumped into a young woman wearing an expensive silk bathrobe.

She looked to be in her late twenties, with long hair draped over her shoulders and slightly drooping eyelids, as if she had just had a few drinks. Her face had a lazy yet discerning expression.

It was none other than the eldest daughter of the Kuroiwa family—Kuroiwa Reiko.

Lin Shen and Asai Narumi reacted very quickly, immediately lowering their heads and turning to the side of the corridor, adopting a respectful posture and bowing slightly.

Both of them were praying in their hearts, "Keep going, keep going, don't stop."

However, Reiko Kuroiwa stopped abruptly.

She shuffled a few steps in her wooden clogs, stood in front of the two men, tilted her head, sized them up for a few seconds, and asked, "You two... are you new here?"

Lin Shen lowered her gaze and replied calmly, "Yes, Miss."

Reiko Kuroiwa took another half step forward, her gaze sweeping back and forth between the two of them, before saying something that made their hearts tighten simultaneously: "Raise your heads."

Asai Narumi's back tensed up.

She knew that her face had appeared near the Kuroiwa family's house far too many times.

Although she usually goes out as Dr. Asai, no one can guarantee that Reiko Kuroiwa will not recognize her.

But the die was cast, so she gritted her teeth and slowly raised her head.

Reiko Kuroiwa's gaze lingered on her face for a few seconds, without revealing any surprise or recognition.

She merely narrowed her eyes slightly and asked a question that Asai Narumi hadn't expected at all: "Are you a man or a woman?"

Asai Narumi paused for a moment, but quickly composed herself: "A man."

She deliberately lowered her voice and used a rather rough tone when she said this.

After all, she had been a man for over twenty years before her gender reassignment surgery, and the muscle memory of that masculine way of speaking was still there!

Upon hearing this answer, Reiko Kuroiwa's lips curled into a slightly amused smile: "She's quite cute..."

She took a half step back, waved to the two of them, and said, "Not bad, not bad, you two come with me."

Asai Narumi breathed a sigh of relief.

Although I was called out to, at least I wasn't recognized.

She quickly lowered her head and followed, with Lin Shen walking at the very back.

Although the two were somewhat confused, they still followed Reiko Kuroiwa into a room.

After entering the room, Lin Shen casually closed the sliding door to Kuroiwa Reiko's room.

He had just closed the door when he heard Kuroiwa Reiko say in a matter-of-fact tone, "Take off your clothes and serve me properly."

"If you satisfy me, you will be richly rewarded."

Lin Shen stood at the door, stunned for a moment.

He turned and glanced at Asai Narumi.

Asai Narumi also looked completely bewildered.

The two looked at each other, and in each other's eyes they both saw the same thing: What's going on?

None of them expected that the eldest daughter of the Kuroiwa family would be such a ravenous and insatiable woman.

Seeing two unfamiliar faces in the house, who were fairly pleasing to the eye, he immediately called them into his room to "serve" him.

Reiko Kuroiwa stood in the middle of the room. Seeing the two of them frozen in place, her smile faded, and she frowned impatiently, saying, "Are you two deaf? Didn't you hear me? Take off your clothes!"

Lin Shen snapped out of his daze and smiled.

He turned to look at Asai Narumi, his tone lighthearted with a hint of schadenfreude: "You're a doctor, you're definitely more professional in this area than I am... You should do it."

Asai Narumi quickly waved her hand, her face showing a bitter and astringent expression, like she had eaten an unripe persimmon: "No, no, no... I've already cut it off, I'm too weak to do it... You should do it."

Lin Shen shook his head, his tone carrying an undisguised disdain: "I'm not going!"

"Don't you dare soil my body, you slut who sleeps with anyone."

"If I accidentally contract HIV, my life is over."

Reiko Kuroiwa's expression changed instantly.

A flash of anger crossed her eyes, which had just been languid and intoxicated, and she snapped, "What did you say?! Who are you calling someone who can be anyone—"

Her voice stopped abruptly.

Because Lin Shen had already drawn his Glock from his waist at lightning speed and shoved the silencer directly into her open mouth.

Reiko Kuroiwa's eyes widened in an instant.

The slight tipsiness vanished instantly, replaced by a chilling fear that rose up from the spine.

She stood frozen in place, a muffled sob escaping her throat, her hands dangling in mid-air, too afraid to move.

Lin Shen pressed the muzzle of the gun against her chin, and without wasting words, asked directly, "Where is your father?"

Reiko Kuroiwa burst into tears, her whole body trembling, and stammered, "In...in the room...at this time...he should be in the room on the second floor of the main house..."

Lin Shen pulled the gun out of her mouth, but still pointed it at her forehead: "Lead the way. Don't try anything funny."

Reiko Kuroiwa nodded repeatedly, her nodding so fast it was as if she were kowtowing.

She didn't even bother to put on her wooden clogs properly, and with awkward steps, she pushed open the side door and walked ahead, trembling, to lead the way.

The moonlight shone on her face, which was filled with terror, completely washing away her previous arrogant and domineering demeanor.
