Isn't it very scientific to use the Death Note to kill people?

He gradually calmed down.

But his eyes were still filled with intense resentment as he stared intently at Lin Jiashu.

Conan only felt regret.

I regret not seeing through this man's hypocritical facade!

"Ai, what happened to Ai?!" Professor Agasa couldn't help but ask.

"Sherry? Don't worry, she's alive and well... After all, she's a scientist who can create such an incredible drug as APTX4869, and the organization needs her abilities."

"Stop talking nonsense and get rid of them."

Gin's cold voice was tinged with impatience.

"They're really impatient... Fine, I'll give them a quick death since we've known each other for a while."

Gin pulled a pistol from under the black trench coat.

When Conan was aimed at by that dark gun barrel, he was already sweating profusely, and Professor Agasa swallowed hard.

In a life-or-death situation, Conan desperately racked his brains for a way out.

But no!

Gin's methods are beyond question, and although Yoshiki Hayashi didn't carry a gun, his abilities were extraordinary, and his methods were even more ruthless and cruel.

He only had one tranquilizer dart, and all his movements were being watched closely by them, plus what Professor Agasa had said...

Everything is over.

In his final moments, Conan thought of Ran.

According to Lin Jiashu, as long as his identity is not discovered, he shouldn't attack Xiaolan and the others, right?

But, as expected, I was still unwilling to give up!

Gin's hand was about to pull the trigger.

It was at this time that

Click.

The door opened.

Ai Haibara walked in from outside, ignoring the situation inside, turned around and closed the door, then put on her indoor slippers.

Chapter 310: Truly Amazing, Kamen Rider Conan!

Ai Haibara walked in from outside, ignoring the situation inside, turned around and closed the door, then put on her indoor slippers.

Lin Jiashu gave her a gentle smile.

"Didn't I say you'd come in five minutes later?"

"It's been five minutes."

Ai Haibara answered in her childish voice.

Then she glanced at Conan and Professor Agasa's horrified and pale expressions, especially the former... She smiled almost imperceptibly, then turned to look at Gin.

This man was like a nightmare to her.

She examined it carefully for a while and commented, "Although it looks very similar, it definitely feels different."

"Really? You've never been particularly good at keeping track of time?"

Gin looked at Yoshiki Hayashi, his cold voice suddenly turning into a younger one, tinged with a hint of complaint: "I was just two seconds away from pulling the trigger."

boom!

He said this and then pulled the trigger.

Then, brilliant ribbons and fireworks burst forth from the muzzle of the gun.

Conan and Professor Agasa, covered in colorful ribbons falling from the sky, had very stiff expressions.

"I never expected her to be this punctual."

Lin Jiashu was speechless.

"W-what... what's going on, Ai?"

Dr. Agasa's voice was strained.

Having realized the reason, Conan's gaze swept back and forth between Gin, Yoshiki Hayashi, and Ai Haibara. His expression was so complex he didn't know whether to be angry, relieved, or happy.

In the end, he chose to shout:

"you!!!"

Judging from his reaction, he was probably mostly annoyed.

At that moment, Gin suddenly threw off his trench coat, instantly transforming from black to white, becoming the phantom thief Kid.

"Don't blame me, I was just coerced by that troublesome detective over there to act in this play for him."

"I wonder who is really enjoying this."

Lin Jiashu didn't give him any face at all.

Kaito Kuroba lowered the brim of his white top hat—to be honest, he was quite happy.

And I learned more secrets about Hayashi Yoshiki today, it was a very rewarding day!

At this moment, Conan gritted his teeth.

But while he was furious, he couldn't help but shout, "So what exactly is going on?"

"This is a preview of the doom your reckless behavior has brought you."

Lin Jiashu stepped forward and looked down at him expressionlessly.

When he put on a cold face, Conan, who was originally a little angry and wanted to question him, instantly lost his momentum.

He was even a little afraid to meet Lin Jiashu's eyes.

"You're very confident in yourself, Conan-kun."

"Going to investigate that organization all by yourself, even daring to run right under Gin and Vodka's noses... I see. So you have the ability to deflect bullets? Is that Professor Agasa's amazing new invention? That's incredible. Maybe sometime Professor Agasa will transform you into a Kamen Rider so you can go out and fight evil. Everyone will cheer for you."

"Like this: You're amazing, Kamen Rider Conan! Thank you for saving Beika Town and the precious lives of innocent people. You're a true savior."

pop, pop, pop

Lin Jiashu clapped his hands expressionlessly.

Wow!

Is this guy really that sarcastic?

Kaito Kuroba stood to the side, unable to help but marvel inwardly.

Even Professor Agasa was so taken aback by what he said that he shrank back.

However, he couldn't help but cough, saying, "Transforming people into Kamen Rider or something, that only happens on TV—"

"Please don't speak yet, Professor Agasa."

The moment Hayashi Yoshiki looked over, Dr. Agasa immediately shut his mouth.

Conan felt his scalp tingle from what he was being told.

But he couldn't help himself and looked at Lin Jiashu, saying, "So, you're actually from that organization—"

"Cointreau, that's my code name."

Lin Jiashu looked at him: "Do you know how dangerous your situation was yesterday? Did you think you weren't discovered? If you weren't discovered, why would I be here today?"

"..."

Conan was speechless.

This was indeed something he hadn't anticipated.

He was initially relieved that Lin Jiashu didn't know he had discovered his identity, but the other party's sudden appearance caught him completely off guard.

I was actually discovered last night—

but,

How did you know it was me?

"You went out with Professor Agasa in the middle of the night, and the person keeping watch said that a little kid ran into the station basement at four in the morning. Is that hard to guess?"

Lin Jiashu said, "You still revealed so many flaws. If I hadn't taken some actions beforehand, you would already be dead there."

"..."

Conan also understood this.

The things Lin Jiashu said in front of the safe—that there might be a bomb hidden inside, and the sniper killing the person Gin had arranged to keep watch outside the station—were all things he had prepared beforehand.

Conan was initially puzzled.

It was he who agreed with Vodka to change the time and place of the transaction, so why was the person Gin arranged to keep watch killed by a sniper?

It turns out that it was all arranged by Lin Jiashu specifically to save him.

"...I understand. I was indeed too reckless this time."

"If you want to die, it's fine if you do it alone, but don't you consider Professor Agasa who was nearby at the time?"

"..."

Conan lowered his head, feeling somewhat guilty.

Looking at his appearance, Lin Jiashu couldn't help but smile inwardly.

It's all right now.

This exposure of his identity was the result of Lin Jiashu's careful consideration.

The persona he has cultivated over the years is largely for this moment.

Rather than hiding his dark identity from Conan and others who are on the side of good, it's better to reveal it now and conceal it. After all, this makes things easier for him, and it also saves him from being caught off guard by an accidental exposure while trying to hide it.

But most importantly, the time is ripe.

The persona that Yoshiki Hayashi has cultivated over the years is enough to make Conan and the others doubt him when they first discover his identity as a member of the Black Organization. They wonder if he has some hidden reasons or if the truth is not as simple as it seems. Then, the fact that "I was forced to expose myself in front of him to save him" only makes Conan more convinced of his identity as the Dark Red.

After all, if Yoshiki Hayashi were truly on the black side, why would he do something so unnecessary? Especially with Ai Haibara, a former member of the organization, providing very compelling corroborating evidence.

This incident is indeed the perfect opportunity to take advantage of the situation.

This scene was unforgettable for Conan, and it also made him realize the "popularity" of Yoshiki Hayashi...

Ultimately, Lin Jiashu had long planned to manipulate the Red Team's higher-ups to switch his public identity from black to red, and gaining the recognition of Conan, a key figure in the Red Team, was naturally a part of what Lin Jiashu needed to win over.

Chapter 311: Self-Destructive Tendencies

"So you're actually in cahoots with Phantom Thief Kid?"

Looking at Kaito Kid, who stood there with his hands in his pockets, looking exactly like a conspicuous bag, Conan said speechlessly.

No wonder Yoshiki Kidd was so unenthusiastic during those attempts to capture him; it turns out those two were in cahoots all along.

However, this will clarify what the woman disguised as Shiho Miyano was all about on the rooftop of the Beika Hotel.

After that incident, Conan discovered that the person who died under the identity of Shiho Miyano was a wanted female robber.

But at this moment, he had too many questions in his heart.

"Don't get me wrong, how could there be a detective who becomes an accomplice to a phantom thief?"

Lin Jiashu sat leisurely on the sofa.

Ai Haibara then brought over a cup of hot tea and placed it in front of Yoshiki Hayashi, then handed another cup to Professor Agasa—this little old man who loved telling puns and corny jokes had indeed been frightened just now, and he was still a little dazed when he took the teacup.

Fortunately, he did not have a heart condition.

"I have to say, you're really heartless."

Kaito Kid clicked his tongue.

Lin Jiashu chuckled and said, "But to be precise, we should be considered comrades-in-arms who share the same enemy and help each other."

Comrades?
