Ordinary people sometimes go their whole lives without encountering a single bizarre or significant event, but it's different in the world of Detective Conan. You might encounter one many times in a month, or you might encounter one that ends your life.

After all, things like bombing stadiums, ski resorts, amusement parks, or being mowed down by machine guns... basically, anything that involves killing people wherever there are crowds, it's already difficult to survive if you're lucky enough to do so.

For example, right now, explosions are happening all over the Dongdu Aquarium Amusement Park, and the twin Ferris wheel that it has been proudly promoting for so long is being strafed by Osprey machine guns.

"Wuhu~" Jiang Jin only needed to press the button for the machine gun, while the people on the pier and near the Ferris wheel had much more to consider.

Of course, Gin did this not to give Jiang a good time, but simply to ensure that Gil was completely dead.

On the pier, Shinichi Kudo and Eisuke Hondo dodged the pieces or bullets that were occasionally shot down from above.

"Found you, kid." The two men turned around at the same time and saw a woman in black walking against the flow of people. Although they did not recognize the woman, it did not stop them from instinctively sensing danger.

Shinichi Kudo looked at the woman warily: "What do you want?"

Gotabesi smiled charmingly, pointed at Hondou Eisuke, and said, "Little brother, I'll take you to find your sister."

"I won't go with you, don't even think about lying to me again!" Hondo Eisuke refused decisively without Kudo Shinichi having to say anything.

Gotabesi's expression immediately changed, her beautiful face turning sinister as she raised her hand and held up the gun: "Little brother, your sister doesn't have much patience."

Shinichi Kudo's expression changed, and he reached for his wrist. He had brought his tranquilizer watch with him this time. Unexpectedly, Eisuke Hondo didn't panic when he saw the gun; instead, he reached behind his waist and pulled out a gun as well.

"Where did you come from?" Shinichi Kudo asked in surprise.

Hondou Eisuke's face was a little ugly. He didn't answer, but instead pointed his gun at Gotabeshi: "I won't go with you."

Gotabeshi cursed under her breath, but she was unwilling to be scared away so easily by a high school student. Her gaze fell on Shinichi Kudo standing to the side, and she remembered what Duago had said.

If anyone tries to stop them, kill them. If you can't take the person with you, you can't go back empty-handed and say you were scared away by two high school students, can you?

"Bang!" Gotabeshi raised her hand and fired without saying a word. Shinichi Kudo naturally dodged quickly, and Eisuke Hondo also pulled the trigger in a moment of panic, but nothing happened.

"Hahaha..." Gotabeshi laughed upon seeing this, then said coldly, "So you were just using an empty gun to scare your sister, what a naughty child!"

Shinichi Kudo sensed something was wrong and fired the tranquilizer dart. Gotabeshi felt something coming towards her, then felt a numbness and staggered.

"Run!" Shinichi Kudo grabbed Eisuke Hondo, who was staring blankly at the gun in his hand, and ran.

The massive Ferris wheel finally gave way under the machine gun fire, its supporting components damaged. It tilted heavily; if it fell and started rolling again, the park's visitors who couldn't escape in time would be doomed.

With a loud crash, several Ferris wheel cabins slammed heavily to the ground. Hondo Eisuke, who was running away, seemed to sense something and suddenly stopped and turned around to look.

"Stop standing there, get out of here! The Ferris wheel is about to fall!" Shinichi Kudo turned around and pulled him, but Eisuke Hondo's eyes reddened. "Sister, I haven't found my sister yet..."

Shinichi Kudo glanced at the Ferris wheel. He knew that Eisuke Hondo had boarded it, and given her current state, he wondered what had happened between her and Curaçao on the Ferris wheel. He feared... the worst was likely to happen to her. He was reluctant to tell Eisuke Hondo, and could only advise him to leave this dangerous place first.

"Mom...where are you...?"

The crying sounded particularly abrupt in the chaotic scene. The two people looked in the direction of the sound and saw a little girl crying helplessly.

"Screech—" That teeth-grinding sound rang out again, and a steel bar was tilting and falling, about to hit the child.

A figure flashed past the two of them, raising a cloud of dust. When the dust settled, Hondou Eiyu exclaimed, "Sister!"

The steel bar pressed down on Hondo Emi, making her already blood-soaked clothes look even more pitiful. The little girl she was protecting in her arms was the same one from before. Hondo Emi paused for a moment when she saw her younger brother running towards her, then pushed the child in her arms towards him.

"Eiyu, take her away, and you all... get out of here quickly. The Ferris wheel... is about to fall." Hondou Eiyu said, blood flowing continuously from her mouth. Chianti had shattered her internal organs, and she had just fallen from the sky with the Ferris wheel. She herself felt that it was a miracle that she still had the strength to run out.

With tears welling in his eyes, Hondou Eisuke's hands trembled as he pushed the steel bar: "Sister, I'm here to save you, I..."

"Eisuke!" Hondo Eimi grabbed her younger brother's hand anxiously, her beautiful eyes filled with sadness, reluctance, and guilt. "It's my fault for not protecting you. I'm sorry. After this, Eisuke, leave Japan and don't get involved in this again."

Hondo Hidemi turned to look at Kudo Shinichi, she had a gut feeling that this unfamiliar high school student was the boy named Conan.

"Take him away, please..."

The giant Ferris wheel finally broke completely and crashed to the ground with a whooshing sound. As if that wasn't the end of it, the massive object started rolling due to inertia.

Perhaps because Conan had reverted to Shinichi Kudo, he failed to intercept the Ferris wheel with a soccer ball. The Osprey helicopter circled once before taking off.

The Toto Aquarium was a scene of utter chaos, with sirens and ambulances blaring everywhere. Shinichi Kudo, not wanting to appear before the police, slipped away alone while Eisuke Hondo took the little girl to a doctor.

"Hiss—" Shinichi Kudo paused, looking at the woman in front of him with surprise. It was Gotabeshi, who had tried to take Eisuke Hondo away earlier.

"You dare to ambush me, kid? Die!"

[Health detected -0.5, remaining health 89.5/99.]

Tottori Prefecture, organization base.

After examination, Curaçao regained her memory, confirming that Gil was an undercover agent. Jiang Jin also handed over the recovered memory card at that opportune moment. With Bourbon's guarantee, the screening and surveillance of Jiang Jin were lifted.

Vermouth walked towards him, and Jiang Jin stopped and smiled at her, saying, "Thank you very much, Miss Chris. I just didn't expect that the higher-ups would send Curaçao directly."

“There were people in the organization who were suspicious a while ago. When I handed over that information, it only made those suspicions more urgent,” Vermouth said casually, twirling her long hair with her slender fingers.

Jiang Jin held a piece of paper between two fingers and said, "In short, it was a pleasant cooperation. Also, I'll be leaving my Noc to Miss Chris. Be good to him."

Vermouth glanced at the departing young man's back, then looked down at the name and phone number on the note. She parted her lips slightly: "Onoshi..."

Jiang Jin did not leave the organization's base, as he still had a promise to fulfill. Because he had made a contribution by catching Gil, the rat who had been hiding for many years, Jiang Jin's authority within the organization was also upgraded, and information that he could not access before was now much easier to obtain.

Some information has to be obtained from the organization's database, and besides, some information may not be accurate even if the data is obtained from these sources.

Shuichi Akai walked through the noisy arcade filled with young people, and among the crowd of blond and red-haired men, the silver-haired youth seemed rather well-behaved.

"You invited me to a place like this to talk business?" Shuichi Akai walked up behind Jiang Jin, who was playing a shooting game. Jiang Jin glanced at Shuichi Akai and said slowly, "Want to play a round?"

Shuichi Akai glanced at the guns and targets in the shooting game and said, "Not interested."

"If you're not going to play with me, then you can go back." Jiang Jin dangled a game coin between his fingers, while Akai Shuichi's deep green eyes stared at him, and the other raised an eyebrow at him. Helpless, Akai Shuichi took the game coin and inserted it into the machine.

A comical tune began to play, and Shuichi Akai picked up a game gun. Jiang Jin selected "Two-Player Mode." After a sound effect, an electronic frisbee appeared on the screen, and Jiang Jin immediately fired, scoring a point after hitting the target.

On the contrary, Shuichi Akai missed his shot.

The game sound effects ended, and Jiang Jin defeated Akai Shuichi.

"The guns in the games here are rigged; the crosshairs are off-target." Jiang Jin chuckled and patted Akai Shuichi on the shoulder before walking away with the game tokens. Akai Shuichi put down his gun and caught up with him in a few steps. "I've played with you all."

Jiang Jin curled his lip and said, "This is boring, it's a bit unfair to win." With that, he walked to a row of claw machines by the wall, put in a coin, and started trying to win.

Jiang Jin, who usually wins at everything, had almost finished half a box of game tokens but hadn't won a single prize. Akai Hideki glanced at him, his face already contorted with rage. He even worried that if he didn't win a single prize after this whole box of tokens, the arcade owner might not see the light of day again.

Shuichi Akai reached out and pulled Jiang Jin aside. Jiang Jin complained, "Hey, what are you doing?"

The hand that always held the gun gripped the joystick of the claw machine. Akai Hide stared expressionlessly at the mechanical claw inside, then casually pressed a button with his other hand. The mechanical claw trembled as it fell and grabbed a toy, then trembled as it tossed it into the basket.

Shuichi Akai bent down and took out a hairy snake with its forked tongue sticking out from below, handing it to Jiang Jin.

"...Tch, you just got lucky!" Jiang Jin picked up the doll and rolled his eyes. Akai Shuichi turned around, manipulated it a few more times, and with a casual press, grabbed another snow-white wolfhound.

Jiang Jin stared in disbelief, blinking for a long time before pointing to a black wolfhound in the claw machine: "Then... I want that one."

Shuichi Akai turned around with a resigned expression, while Jiang Jin watched him intently, hoping to learn some techniques. But after watching for a while, he only saw that the other man was just grabbing at the target with a casual grab!

“Listen to me, hey, don’t stop!” Jiang Jin turned and leaned against the machine. “The only information the organization has about Akai Tsutomu is from a mission seventeen years ago. The assassination of an American female capitalist, Amanda Hughes. And Akai Tsutomu’s name appeared in the mission’s summary report, the reason being… to silence him for obstructing the mission.”

Akai Hide, expressionless, stared at the doll inside the machine and pressed a button: "I've already found this one."

"Tsk, can you have a little patience? Don't interrupt me." Jiang Jin snorted coldly. "The one who went to carry out the assassination mission was Rum, and quite a few unexpected people came up with during his mission. There was also a shogi player named Haneda Koji who was killed on the same day as the assassination of Amanda Hughes. Akai Tsutomu died after that."

"Rum? The second-in-command of that organization?" Shuichi Akai raised an eyebrow. "I've never seen this person when I was in the organization."

Jiang Jin shrugged: "What a coincidence, I've never seen him before either."

"Are you sure my father is dead?" Shuichi Akai asked again.

“That’s how the organization’s records are anyway,” Jiang Jin replied. Shuichi Akai frowned slightly. “I also looked into Koji Haneda’s case, but I only found the record that Amanda Hughes was assassinated by the organization.”

Jiang Jin nodded: "So there are still many secrets behind this."

And I know some more, but I won't tell you, hehe!

Jiang Jin didn't want to use up all his chips at once; they would always have another chance to use each other.

“Actually, I find it quite strange. In the organization, assassination missions are always handled by the boss. Why would Rum, the second-in-command, do it personally?” Jiang Jin seemed genuinely puzzled by the matter. “Unless this Amanda Hughes is not just a disobedient capitalist, she must know something extraordinary. Only if that person’s confidant, Rum, handles this matter can he feel at ease. So your father’s death must be related to Rum.”

Shuichi Akai glanced at Jiang Jin: "Aren't you worried that I'll go after Rum and he'll suspect you when you tell me this?"

Jiang Jin snorted indifferently, "Whatever. He's not my dad anyway. Whether you want revenge or are just investigating for fun, it's none of my business. I'm just watching the show. If you dare to do it, it won't affect me. Besides, I'm only helping you investigate because I want to settle some scores with you."

After saying that, Jiang Jin took all the dolls away and casually picked out a cartoon snake, stuffing it into Akai Shuichi's hand: "Here, consider it payment."
