Lin Jiashu waited for Xiaolan and the others to finish washing before going into the shower.

Standing under the shower, he was thinking about what it would be like to write in the Death Note that someone was bitten to death by the largest shark in the Pacific Ocean.

That said, Death Note stipulates that it cannot cause the death of a third party. Would a creature like a shark be considered a third party?

Yoshiki Hayashi did try writing down the names of dead animals in the Death Note, but the Death Note seemed to be ineffective on animals, or perhaps the animals themselves did not approve of the names given to them by humans. Nothing happened after he wrote them down.

Meanwhile, Ran and Sonoko were chatting with Yamaguchi Kimiko and the others inside the shop.

The girls didn't mention sharks at all, while Kimiko Yamaguchi, a local, recommended some pretty beaches nearby and good restaurants...

"As for the beach, I don't think I brought my swimsuit this time," Xiaolan said.

"Then let's find a swimsuit store to buy one later. I just saw that there are quite a few for sale."

"Okay."

Xiaolan nodded.

At that moment, Sonoko looked towards the changing room—the shower room was inside: "Is Yoshiki-nii a little slow?"

"Yes, a little... ah... could it be because we don't have towels?"

Thinking of this, Xiaolan picked up a towel and walked towards the changing room, then knocked on the door.

"Brother Jiashu, do you need a towel?"

no respond.

Guessing that he was still in the shower and hadn't heard her, Xiaolan opened the door.

As it happened, Hayashi Yoshiki opened the shower door from inside.

"oops?"

Drape a towel over your shoulders and smooth your wet hair.

Lin Jiashu looked at Xiao Lan who appeared in front of him, first surprised, then smiled gently.

In stark contrast, the delicate face of the sixteen-year-old girl was visibly becoming rosy.

"Thank you, Xiaolan. I was just looking for a damp towel to dry my hair."

After he said that, Xiaolan, who was a little flustered after coming to her senses, didn't have time to back out. She could only shyly pretend that nothing had happened and approach Lin Jiashu to hand him the towel.

Yoshiki-san, that's just too much...!

Although it wasn't the first time I'd seen Lin Jiashu's fair and muscular upper body, every time I did, the sensual muscles and lines were always incredibly eye-catching.

But that's not the focus this time.

Although Lin Jiashu wasn't completely naked after taking a shower, he was only wearing his underwear.

In the challenge of not looking there, Xiaolan achieved a good result of 0.3 seconds.

Lin Jiashu seemed completely unaware of this. After taking the towel, he calmly thanked him.

For some reason, I blushed under his gaze.

Xiao Lan hesitantly withdrew and closed the door.

"Is Yoshiki-nii ready?" Sonoko asked.

"Huh? Hmm...it seems like it's getting better."

"What are you doing, Xiaolan? Your face is so red."

Sonoko found it strange, then reached out and touched it with a suspicious look, only to find that it was still very hot.

Then, as if realizing something, her expression turned to shock: "Could it be? Yoshiki-nii wasn't wearing any clothes inside!?"

No!

"Really not!?"

Sonoko was completely shocked when she heard this.

She stared at the door that had been closed again, and before she could even swallow, Xiaolan hugged her tightly: "It's not that you're not wearing any clothes!"

"Gurgle—ah! I know, I know, be gentle, Lan!"

Sonoko screamed as her arms tightened around her.

Kimiko Yamaguchi and Chinatsu Mabuchi exchanged a smile as they watched the two girls interact.

"You two are as close as Anne Bonny and Mary Reed."

"Huh?"

"They are friends who fight back to back."

Chinatsu Mabuchi said with a smile, "But if we're talking about other anecdotes, the two of them also shared a lover."

"Sharing a lover!?"

The two girls were a little dumbfounded when they heard this.

At that moment, the locker room door opened.

Lin Jiashu, drying his hair and still damp, came out and said cheerfully, "Sorry to keep you waiting."

Chapter 334: Business Card

The beach is always the most comfortable place at dusk.

The sea and the sunset, with a cool sea breeze at low tide.

"It's so beautiful."

The girl standing on the shoreline looked very relaxed.

When people stand by the sea, they can't help but imagine what the scenery is like on the other side. Is someone else standing there gazing at the sea and thinking the same thing right now?

click-

A sudden shutter sound came from behind, and Xiaolan looked over in surprise, only to find that it was actually Lin Jiashu.

Being secretly photographed didn't make her feel uncomfortable, just a little surprised and shy. She looked at Lin Jiashu with a smile and asked, "Brother Jiashu?"

"I thought it looked really good, so I took a picture without thinking."

"...Where is that?"

"Don't question my taste."

Lin Jiashu smiled and adjusted the camera in his hand.

While film cameras are inconvenient to use, they are still commendable in terms of texture and nostalgia.

Xiaolan pursed her lips and didn't say anything, but her expression looked slightly excited.

While Lin Jiashu was fiddling with his camera, he suddenly received a phone call. As he walked aside to answer it, Xiaolan and Yuanzi were chatting about something.

"What a pity, if I had prepared a swimsuit in advance, I could have worn it now."

"Then we can just go and buy it when we see a swimsuit shop later, since we'll be staying here for another two or three days anyway."

"But those little brats might come along too."

Sonoko chuckled and nudged Ran with her elbow, "Hey Ran, how about trying on a sexy swimsuit?"

"Sexy?"

“You see, we used to dress more conservatively when we went swimming or to the beach, and here it’s just Jia Shu Ge…”

Her eager tone was full of encouragement.

What do you mean by "only Yoshiki-san"?

Ran smiled wryly, her brows furrowed. Sonoko's intention was clearly to attract Yoshiki's attention.

But would that really work?

As for Yoshiki-san, Xiaolan still doesn't know what kind of girl he likes, although he might have some feelings for her...?

Xiaolan seemed too embarrassed to think about it further.

But I still feel a little embarrassed about wearing sexy swimsuits.

By this time, Lin Jiashu had finished making the call.

"It was Uncle Mori who called, saying that Inspector Megure and the others have arrived on the island and want to confirm what happened during today's diving."

"Ok."

The three of them quickly left the beach by bicycle.

Shenhai Island isn't very big; you could easily cycle around the entire island with just a bicycle.

The meeting place was in the lobby of the hotel that Kogoro Mouri had booked earlier but did not have a room. When Yoshiki Hayashi and the others arrived, they saw Inspector Megure with Miwako Sato, Wataru Takagi, and Ninzaburo Shiratori asking questions... The people being questioned were the two treasure hunters whose comrades had died.

"I see. These two are named Izuyama Taro and Matsumoto Mitsuji, respectively?"

"Ah, Mr. Lin!"

Takagi Wataru, who was diligently taking notes, was visibly startled when Hayashi Yoshiki suddenly approached him.

The latter had a smile on his face.

"take it easy."

"...Yes, I was just a little surprised that Mr. Lin walks so quietly."

"That's because Officer Takagi, you're taking it too seriously."

Lin Jiashu smiled as he wrote down the two names.

Meanwhile, the two treasure hunters were incredibly arrogant in front of the police: "They're treating us like criminals. Shouldn't we be the victims?"

"If you really think you're a victim, why don't you answer the questions honestly like a victim?" Kogoro Mouri couldn't stand it anymore.

At that moment, Sato Miwako placed two photos in front of the two of them.

The photo shows two men with bruised and swollen faces. They are the unlucky guys who were caught last night after committing robbery while wearing Lupin and Fujiko Mine masks.

"These two robbed a supermarket in Xinqiao last night and stole the cash from the store. They even said they did it on your orders in order to join your team."

"I don't know, we've never seen these two people before." "They're probably trying to frame you after being arrested. Otherwise, do you have any evidence, officer?"

Indeed, there is no direct evidence to accuse these two people, as Sato Miwako said.

These two treasure hunters were clearly fearless.

Then Shiratori Ninzaburo came over with two cups of cold drinks, attempting to obtain their fingerprints through the cups, but the two guys completely ignored him.

"I'm not particularly interested in those two bumbling thieves from last night, but I'm wondering if you're close to finding Annie's treasure?" Lin Jiashu said with a smile.

"Who knows?" Matsumoto Koji scoffed, crossing his legs.

"Well... the death of your companion this afternoon was clearly a murder. Was it because one of you wanted to take more treasure? Or was someone secretly watching your progress and trying to get rid of you to protect the treasure?" Lin Jiashu's tone was somewhat light. "But no matter what, your situation seems a bit delicate."

"Stop exaggerating."

Although Matsumoto Mitsuji said that, he unconsciously put his legs down.

The other person's expression also became somewhat subtle.

Lin Jiashu observed their expressions.

"Scar-mongering is a boring term; I'm just making a reasonable guess based on the situation. After all, it's not uncommon for partners to turn on each other when it comes to wealth."

Lin Jiashu paused for a moment, then smiled and said, "Don't be so quick to refute me, it will make you seem guilty, Mr. Matsumoto."

"What did you say!?"

Matsumoto Mitsuji stood up angrily.

However, Hayashi Yoshiki ignored him and simply took out a business card and tossed it to Izuyama Taro, who had remained silent.

Izuyama Taro instinctively caught it and glanced at it.

Kindaichi Detective Agency

Below is the phone number and address.

"This is my business card. You can call me if you need anything."
