The Black Detective of the Detective Conan World

Kudo Yusaku staggered two steps, then covered his chest in shock. He raised his hand, which was covered in blood.

He turned around blankly, looking at Conan and Yukiko, as if he wanted to say something, but all his strength seemed to have been drained, and he collapsed to the ground.

"Husband!" Yukiko screamed in terror, her voice trembling. She was just about to go and check on Yusaku Kudo when the hotel window shattered again!

boom!

Another golden streak of light roared in and struck her squarely in the chest.

Blood splattered across her neck, and even splattered onto Yukiko's face. The light in her eyes quickly dimmed, her legs gave way, and she collapsed onto Yusaku Kudo.

"Daddy! Mommy!"

Conan was struck dumb!

He never expected that the prank would lead to an assassination attempt by the real Black Organization!

Two shots were all it took away his loved ones!

This is impossible! Absolutely impossible!

Professor Agasa, standing nearby, was horrified and cried out, "Mr. Kudo! Mrs. Kudo! Shinichi, hide quickly!"

Conan's mind was in a daze, and he ignored Professor Agasa's calls. Like a walking corpse, he stiffly went to his parents' side and reached out to touch their bodies with trembling hands.

Yukiko's breath was weak. With her bloodied hand, she gently pulled Conan's hand, her voice like a candle flickering in the wind: "Shinichi... promise Mom... don't... act impulsively... live... well..."

Her hand loosened and fell limply to her side.

Conan cried out in anguish, "Dad! Mom!"

He pounded the ground with both hands, his mind filled with regret!

If he hadn't been so impulsive...

If only he could be a little more low-key...

If he hadn't revealed his true identity...

Would all of this have been prevented from happening?

He scrambled to his feet and rushed to the broken French window, looking out at the opposite rooftop where he could vaguely see a figure in black.

"Come on! Kill me!" Conan roared, "Come on! Charge here! Attack!"

Another flash of light appeared.

That person seemed to be aiming at him.

Then a golden streak of light shot over!

At that moment, a question popped into Conan's mind: Could it be that I'm not a valuable test subject? Did the men in black have no other intentions than to silence me?

Immediately, a force slammed into his chest.

Conan shuddered and took two steps back.

The expected excruciating pain did not come, and the force was unexpectedly light.

Conan thought the pain hadn't yet traveled from the wound to his brain, but after a while, it still didn't hurt.

"……Why?"

Conan stiffly and slowly lowered his head, discovering that there was indeed a pool of blood on his chest.

But there were no wounds...

Where's the bullet? Where's the wound?

In an instant, the children's minds were filled with countless questions.

"Hahahahaha!"

Suddenly, a burst of laughter rang out. Conan turned around blankly and found that Yusaku Kudo and Yukiko Kudo, who had just been "killed" by a sniper, were getting up from the ground.

Both of them had blood on their faces and chests, and their smiles looked somewhat grotesque.

Yukiko: "Honey, how's my acting? Even though I've been retired for many years, it seems like I haven't gotten any worse."

Yusaku Kudo: "Wife, your acting is naturally the best, especially that last last sentence, which was full of genuine emotion."

Yukiko: "Honey, you're amazing too. After being shot, you looked at your hand first, then turned to look at us. That bewildered look perfectly expressed your disbelief and the feeling of having a thousand words but being unable to express them."

Yusaku Kudo: "Lin-san is really amazing. He said he was going to give us a surprise, and it really was a surprise. At first, even I thought I had been shot."

Yukiko: "Yeah, yeah, I thought the climax was when you shot Shinichi, but it turns out the climax was when we both got shot. Lin-san is really amazing."

Yusaku Kudo: "But our son... pfft, he still has a really good voice when he calls out 'Dad, Mom'."

Yukiko: "It's a pity it was useless. In the end, she still rushed to the window, provoked the other party, and shouted something like 'Come on, kill me!' Her chuunibyou (middle school syndrome) vibe was too strong."

Yusaku Kudo: "Yeah, if they really are the Black Organization, our whole family would probably be wiped out here."

Yukiko: "Sigh, why does Shinichi seem like he hasn't grown up yet? Could this medicine be having some kind of psychological effect?"

The two chatted away, oblivious to everyone around them, laughing and talking animatedly.

There were two people standing nearby, frozen in place.

Professor Agasa was the first to calm down, wiping the sweat from his brow, and asked hesitantly, "You guys... are you alright? So, was that all an act just now?"

Yusaku Kudo turned around and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, Professor Agasa. We didn't actually know about this plot either. Lin-san said he would give us a surprise, and we didn't expect it to be this kind of realistic gunfire."

He was actually quite puzzled.

The fact that the bullet could shatter the hotel's floor-to-ceiling windows shows that it was quite powerful, but when it hit you... it felt like being hit by a water balloon, with blood splattering everywhere, which was quite frightening, but actually it didn't hurt at all.

So what exactly is it?

Also, there's nearly two hundred meters between these two buildings, right? How did Lin Sang manage to hit them so accurately? Is he some kind of expert marksman?

At this moment, Conan finally snapped out of his daze and shouted in grief and indignation, "Lin-san...it's Lin Naoto?! Baka yarou! That bastard, that dog!!!"

Chapter 85: Collecting a thank-you fee? Well, you'd better work harder then!

The fake sniper attack that Conan's family encountered was naturally the work of Naoto Hayashi.

He had already laid an ambush on the rooftop opposite the hotel and sent out small, unloading gold creatures to surround the hotel as surveillance.

He used several golden horseflies as sniper "bullets".

The speed at which horseflies fly in nature is about 145 kilometers per hour, which is about 40 meters per second.

His golden gadflies, after being infused with sufficient spiritual energy, can briefly burst forth with several times the speed, once approaching 200 meters per second!

Of course, he couldn't do it before, but after condensing a second core within his spirit body last time, his spiritual control greatly increased, which allowed him to barely manage to do it.

This speed is already close to the initial velocity of some police handgun bullets.

Those horseflies were flying outside the hotel window, less than 20 meters away. One burst of speed and they could reach you!

Inside the horsefly's belly was red paint that Naoto Hayashi had prepared beforehand. To make it even more realistic, he even heated up the fake blood.

Then, after Kudo Yusaku finished scaring Conan and came to the window to show off, Hayashi Naoto took out a small mirror, waved it a few times in front of him, and then activated the Golden Horsefly!

The horsefly instantly reached its maximum speed and crashed through the hotel window.

Then, Naoto Hayashi controlled the horsefly to transform into a large aphid, and flattened its body as much as possible to reduce the impact.

When this thing hits someone, it explodes, spraying red pigment all over them, making them look like they've been shot.

The aphid fell to the ground, then turned into a small spider and quietly slipped away.

A series of quick moves, coupled with the explosive acting skills of the Kudo couple, resulted in the two being "shot" and suffering a terrible fate.

Finally, Conan was dealt a blow with a burst of energy.

Ha ha.

Didn't you want to give Conan a surprise?

Are you surprised?

Is it stimulating?

Hopefully, little Conan won't get too scared.

Naoto Hayashi retrieved the small golden creature, slowly went downstairs, and arrived at the Beika Grand Hotel.

When he knocked on room 301, the door was flung open with a whoosh, revealing Conan's face, which was filled with resentment.

Conan is usually carefree, but this time he was genuinely terrified.

Who wouldn't be afraid if their own parents died right before their eyes, covered in blood?

He even felt like strangling Naoto Hayashi.

However... this whole thing was caused by his own parents, and the final "shooting" was actually a result of their amazing acting skills; strictly speaking, it had little to do with Naoto Hayashi...

Bullshit!

If it weren't for you doing this, my parents would have been scared to death already.

You usually scare those suspects, but now you've finally come after me?

It's beyond repair!

There wasn't a single good thing about it!

Conan took several deep breaths before finally swallowing the curse that was about to come out of his mouth, and gritted his teeth as he said, "You bastard, how did you do that? What kind of bullet did you use?"

Conan has already checked the broken glass and his own and his parents' bodies, and found no other residue besides the red paint.

No, that's not right either. He found a few golden shards on the broken glass, somewhat like scraped-off gold leaf.

But there were too few of them; they were blown away by the wind, and he didn't have time to collect them.

Naoto Hayashi gave a mysterious smile: "Business secret."

Conan is furious.

The Kudo couple beckoned Hayashi Naoto in and said with a smile, "Hayashi-san, your last attack was brilliant, and you timed it perfectly when we were all off guard."

Naoto Hayashi exchanged a few polite words.

Professor Agasa said thoughtfully, "This seems quite interesting. You all like it so much? Maybe I should invent a similar bullet someday..."

"No!" X3

Conan and the Kudo couple shouted in unison to stop them.

Again? This time it scared him so much his blood pressure spiked. If it happens a few more times, he might even have a heart attack.

But we must not let Professor Agasa be led astray by that kid.

Kudo Yusaku awkwardly changed the subject with a laugh: "So Shinichi, you should come with us. Japan is dangerous."

Conan, with deadpan eyes, gritted his teeth and said, "Japan is dangerous because of you guys! Also, stop trying to persuade me, I won't leave! I want to get the antidote myself and regain my original body!"

The image of Xiaolan appeared in his mind.

If he leaves Japan, wouldn't he and Ran...?

Kudo Yusaku was silent for a moment, then nodded and said, "I understand. It seems there's something here that you can't bear to part with."

Conan suddenly felt guilty. His father's observation skills were so strong? He could even tell that?

Yukiko asked worriedly, "Husband?"

Kudo Yusaku approached Hayashi Naoto and suddenly bowed, saying, "Hayashi-san, please take good care of Conan from now on. Thank you."

He had already realized that this Naoto Hayashi was definitely not as simple as he appeared to be, just a detective's assistant.

But whatever secrets he may be hiding, as long as he is an ally, that is enough.

Naoto Hayashi waved his hand and said, "Mr. Kudo, you're too kind. Conan and I have always been good friends..."

Conan's forehead veins were throbbing (╬▔皿▔)╯#.

Who would be friends with a piece of trash like you? If I'm friends with you, then I'm a dog! A dog!

Naoto Hayashi continued, "What's more, we've already made an agreement that he'll accompany me in bluffing suspects and extorting... cough cough, I mean, collecting thank-you money."

Conan was shocked!

You can't even say something like "fuck"?
