"After all, I was worried that if I took the money, it would be stolen by thieves before I even boarded the plane."
"Why don't you consider putting your money in Fujiko Mine Bank for safekeeping?"
"Good suggestion. I'll wait until I become a fan of Fujiko Mine."
In other words, it's time to wait until I have my own photoshoot.
This man is really quite adept at handling things.
As Fujiko Mine closed her boxes of money and got up to leave, she smiled and handed a business card to Yoshiki Hayashi.
"You might need me someday."
"Perhaps, I look forward to that day."
Lin Jiashu took it.
As she strode away with her long legs, Qi Si also looked at Lin Jiashu.
"Princess Mira has returned, and her coronation ceremony is still scheduled for tomorrow. Mr. Lin and the rest of you, do you plan to stay and visit? Or if you wish to return to Tokyo, we can arrange a private plane at any time."
"We'll have to wait and see what everyone thinks."
After discussing some more matters with Qisi, Lin Jiashu left the meeting room.
Conan is still hanging out with Daisuke Jigen, while Kogoro Mouri has gone to the restaurant to drink beer. Yoshiki Hayashi glanced at the time and asked a passing maid to take him to Ran's place.
Princess Mira was also there when I stepped into that room.
Even now, the princess is still wearing Ran's school uniform, and the two seem to be talking about something.
"Brother Jiashu".
Xiao Lan immediately greeted him, then looked at his right arm and asked, "How's the wound?"
"There's nothing wrong, let's try changing the medication for a few more days."
Lin Jiashu smiled.
"..."
Xiaolan, however, still wore a look of self-reproach.
This prompted Lin Jiashu to reach out and pat her head.
Princess Mira then stepped forward: "I've heard everything from Keith. Thank you for letting me know the truth."
"It's nothing, but Princess Mira might have a tougher time in the future."
“I was already prepared when I came back here.”
Prepare to become the ruler of a country.
Princess Mira straightened her chest and took a deep breath; she was still feeling some pressure. But soon, her serious expression swept over Lin Jiashu and Xiaolan's faces, before revealing an inscrutable expression.
"By the way, please wait for us outside the room for a moment."
She then led Lin Jiashu out of the room and closed the door.
Xiaolan blinked in confusion.
From the closed door, Lin Jiashu could vaguely hear Princess Mira saying things like, "Give it a try!" "I'm going to be queen tomorrow!" "This is the princess's order!" "Aren't you curious?"—words that sounded a bit willful.
She'll be queen in a day, and there won't be many more opportunities to let loose and have fun after that.
In comparison, Xiaolan's tone was much weaker.
After a short wait, the door opened again.
Appearing before Lin Jiashu were two Rans – the two originally looked very similar, but there were subtle differences in their hair and eye colors. However, they had now completely transformed into the same person through makeup.
"Princess Mira heard that you recognized the difference between Princess Xiaolan and her at a glance when you were at the hotel in Tokyo, so she wants to see if you can still tell which one is Princess Xiaolan now."
The maid said with a smile.
Xiaolan, hiding between the two, waited with a mix of embarrassment and anticipation.
Brother Jiashu, can you recognize yourself?
It's probably unlikely.
After they finished their makeup, they looked at themselves in the mirror again, and now even they couldn't tell the difference between them.
Lin Jiashu smiled.
"The answer is here."
He stepped forward and patted Xiaolan's head.
The latter lowered his head, but at that moment he couldn't hide the joy in his heart.
"You're lying! Why?"
His decisive action left Mira, who was standing to the side, completely astonished.
Lin Jiashu did not explain.
Then a bodyguard came over and said that Keith needed to discuss topics related to the coronation ceremony with her, so Mira left again with the maid.
Only Lin Jiashu and Xiaolan were left alone in the room.
"So how did Yoshiki-san recognize him?"
The girl's delicate face showed a hint of excitement.
Being recognized seemed to make her very happy, perhaps because she felt she had been being watched attentively, or perhaps it was some kind of telepathic connection...?
While her heart was racing, she might also feel a bit intoxicated.
Lin Jiashu smiled.
"Because of the breasts."
"..." The girl's expression froze.
"Princess Mira's breasts are probably a bit bigger, after all, she's two years older than you, Xiao Lan."
Lin Jiashu said with a gentle smile.
Xiaolan's face began to turn red at a visible speed.
The girl's initial excitement was quickly replaced by another emotion.
Chapter 376: James and the Spy?
"The wound is fine now, and you can get it wet after you go home today, but it's best to apply this ointment for a few more days."
"OK, thanks."
Department of Trauma Surgery, Beika City Central Hospital
Lin Jiashu extended his right hand for the doctor to examine, and after confirming that there was no problem, he got up and left.
Today is the seventh day since I returned from Vespania.
The bullet graze he sustained there left a rather severe injury to Lin Jiashu's arm, but today he finally no longer needs to change his dressings so frequently.
When he took the elevator downstairs, he encountered two unexpected figures.
Jodie Starling, and Conan.
"Conan?"
"Brother Jiashu?"
Conan, whose face was serious, was startled when he heard Yoshiki's voice. He looked up and saw Yoshiki holding a medical record in her hand: "What are you doing here?"
"The wound on my hand."
Lin Jiashu shook the thing in his hand.
Conan suddenly realized.
Lin Jiashu was aware that he was grazed by a bullet while saving Xiaolan at the palace, and he was still grateful that Xiaolan was there for him.
"Is your wound almost healed? By the way, why wasn't it treated at the hospital in Beika Town?"
"Well, at least I can get wet today." Lin Jiashu was in a good mood. "The trauma department at Beihu Hospital is quite good; they can even treat some wounds without leaving scars."
"That's good. Sister Xiaolan can breathe a sigh of relief now."
"Is that right? Then I'll be going now. Bye-bye, and Miss Judy too."
"Bye-Bye."
"Wait, handsome."
As Lin Jiashu smiled and said goodbye to the two, preparing to leave, Judy, who had been listening with a smile the whole time, stopped him.
Lin Jiashu stopped, somewhat puzzled.
"You're the other partner behind Cool Kid, right?"
Judy looked confident. "Don't try to hide it from me. The other day at the Mouri Detective Agency, you were working together with him, and now you see a little kid going in and out of the hospital without any curiosity about why he's here. The answer is obvious, isn't it?"
"..."
Lin Jiashu didn't refute, but paused, his expression turning slightly serious as he looked at Conan: "So the organization's people have already appeared in this hospital?"
"Yes."
Conan's expression also turned serious.
That day, the FBI arrested Rena Mizunashi, who had fallen into a coma after a motorcycle accident, and secretly treated her at Beika Hospital. For a series of reasons, Conan noticed that someone from that organization had infiltrated the hospital to investigate.
Conan originally planned to contact Yoshiki Hayashi later to discuss this matter.
"As expected, you also knew that the other party was in this hospital."
Judy crossed her arms over her chest.
"Let's find another place to talk, Miss Judy."
Although there was no one around at the moment, it was still a public area.
Judy quickly led the two to the FBI-guarded area, where Rena Mizunashi lay unconscious in a ward on that floor.
"You just discussed these things with me so bluntly, aren't you afraid of being exposed at all?"
"I trust this child's judgment."
Judy paused for a moment, a determined look appearing in her eyes as she looked at Lin Jiashu earnestly and said, "To deal with that organization, the more forces you can trust, the better."
She shouldn't have done that.
But now that Shuichi Akai is dead, she feels somewhat insecure in the face of Gin and his gang, who are determined to get their hands on Rena Mizunashi.
Lin Jiashu's brain is very useful.
Not only Conan's trust in him, but also his performance during the bus robbery incident, led Jodie to believe that he was a trustworthy ally.
"I see."
"The people from that organization have already infiltrated the hospital... We learned from the nurses that he went directly to the hospital to inquire about Rena Mizunashi, but unfortunately, the nurse's contact lens fell out and she couldn't see his face."
Judy shared the known intelligence.
"It seems that the organization is just mobilizing people to check one hospital at a time, and Mizunashi Rena's hospitalization was not recorded in the file, is that right?"
"of course."
"What about those in the hospital who know the truth? A perfectly healthy person is admitted to a hospital and kept under close surveillance, and there are no relevant records. Wouldn't the doctors and nurses in the hospital notice something unusual in a certain ward?"
"Please don't worry about this."
At that moment, the door to Rena Mizunashi's hospital room opened.
Lin Jiashu and the others looked over and saw two people walking out of the ward.
James Black, and a kind-looking, slightly overweight middle-aged man in a white coat.
It was James who spoke.
When Lin Jiashu saw the man in the white coat behind him, his pupils contracted for a moment.
—During the incident in Ireland, he obtained the organization's list of spies. And in that list of only 24 spies, Lin Jiashu had seen the information of the man in the white coat in front of him.
