My obsession with role-playing seems to have distorted the world's aesthetic.

No, no, no, how can they be the same? I am a reincarnator who deals with death, while Ellie on the screen is just an ordinary person in a society governed by the rule of law.

While Marina was surprised, Kozo Akizuki looked completely incredulous.

How can this be?

Based on my impression of Ellie, there's absolutely no way she would do something like murder.

On the screen, Akizuki Airi casually wiped her hands with a tablecloth, and the next second the camera shifted to the deck of the Saint Diana.

Two groups of assassins dressed in black occupied opposite sides of the deck, looking at each other warily.

As night fell, a light rain began to fall from the sky, and dark clouds filled the sky, a harbinger of an impending downpour.

"What a coincidence, Snake."

Gin's somewhat complicated voice rang out, and the leader of the group opposite him was Snake T801 from the zoo.

"Do you know me?"

Snake frowned, looking at Gin with some confusion. Gin shook his head and said, "I don't know you, but I know other Snakes."

As for what constitutes "other Snakes"... I can only say that those who know, know.

"Forget it, there's no point in talking to you. Let's see what happens."

Gin's words puzzled Snake, who wondered what the guy on the other end was up to, but Snake didn't pay much attention to it.

In his eyes, anyone who tried to stop the organization from seizing the Serpent's Blood Eye was basically already dead.

The two groups couldn't agree and immediately started fighting. In the drizzling rain, Snake and Gin King began their battle against King.

The strength of the clone Snake is beyond doubt; even when facing the distillery's ace Gin, he is only slightly inferior.

This gangster-like shootout successfully captured the attention of most viewers, while Marina and Kozo Akizuki focused on discussing Airi's education.

However, one of them is sincere, while the other's situation is uncertain.

While Marina was worried about Airi, Kozo Akizuki had already begun to consider whether he could use this as a threat to achieve his own goals after Airi carried it out.

Marina has now become some kind of reincarnator, and her body has been enhanced, so the medicines I researched probably have no effect on her at all.

Furthermore, it's not certain that Marina didn't give Airi the item that provided the immunity drug. If this is used as leverage...

The only regret now is that Airi hasn't killed anyone yet, and Marina also knows about it.

Forget it, let's not rush it. Let's figure out a way to fool Mari first.

As Akizuki Kozo thought this, the battle between the two organizations on the screen finally came to an end.

In the end, the brewery team came out slightly ahead, and just as Gin breathed a sigh of relief, applause erupted.

"It was a truly excellent performance. I had heard of Gin's rebellious creation before, and seeing it today, I can attest to its extraordinary nature."

However... that's all. The owner of the Serpent's Blood Eye has already been determined—the one who will one day reign supreme over NESTS.

A girl's voice rang out in the downpour. Akizuki Airi emerged from the space that shattered instantly, and the rain seemed to hit some invisible barrier the moment it touched her surroundings.

Gin frowned as he watched the rain dissipate, while Akizuki Airi wore a confident smile.

More and more spatial rifts were opened behind her, and one after another, cyborgs from NESTS boarded the deck.

"Who are you people, daring to interfere in our affairs?"

Seeing Akizuki Airi's right hand gripping the gun tightly, and hearing his question, Akizuki Airi seemed to have heard the biggest joke in the world: "Dare to interfere?"

Hahaha, that's quite an interesting way to put it. This is the first time I've ever seen anyone use the word "dare" to describe me.

I didn't expect to be treated like this right after returning to China. Tsk tsk, looks like my name hasn't even reached Japan yet.

Gin frowned, puzzled as to why his enemy didn't know about Akizuki Airi. "Is that girl famous?"

Just then, Gin's subordinate hurriedly approached Gin to hint at Akizuki Airi's true identity. Clearly, this subordinate knew something about this executive from NESTS.

As Akizuki Airi looked at the brewery member who was approaching Gin, her brows furrowed slightly.

Chapter 517: Phantom Thief Kogoro Mouri

"It seems my reputation hasn't really spread to Japan. In that case, many plans that rely on my reputation need to be scrapped."

Akizuki Airi muttered to herself, and at that moment, the spy that NESTS had planted in the brewery began to explain Akizuki Airi's identity to Gin.

"I have long admired your name, but I have never studied your information in detail before."

"Is Ms. Akizuki Airi, the infamous executive of NESTS in North America, nicknamed 'The Dry Earth,' already trying to make an enemy of our brewery after just returning to Japan?"

Upon hearing the title "Arid Land," Gin's mind was flooded with information, while at that moment, Akizuki Airi yawned and slowly said:

"If your distillery insists on getting involved in this incident, I don't mind making another enemy in this country."

My trip back to Japan is just to take care of some business. After I finish these, I will return to NESTS' North American headquarters.

"If you're trying to threaten me with constant assassination attempts, then wake up. Do you think you'll still have a chance to assassinate me after I return to headquarters?"

Gin nodded at Akizuki Airi's unperturbed demeanor not far away.

"Indeed, even our organization is not confident in assassinating a member of the NESTS organization, which controls both the underworld and legitimate society in the Americas and whose presidents have changed their minds at will throughout history."

However, Miss Akizuki Airi, your group of people can indeed handle any one of us or any one of those people over there on their own.

But if we choose to join forces, then the situation will be different.

After saying this, Gin looked at Snake, who remained silent for a moment before saying:

"I think I understand what you mean. In that case, let's join forces and take care of these overstepping guys."

Not long after Snake finished speaking, Gin immediately began to act. Seeing Gin's extremely fast efficiency, Snake, who had just made his decision, had no choice but to follow.

Across from them, Akizuki Airi smiled, a triumphant smile playing on her lips. "Very well," she thought, "from the moment Gin and Snake became hostile towards me, my defeat was already sealed."

A brutal battle—this is exactly what I've been searching for. I'll go and wipe out this zoo in a bit.

Let them misunderstand by deliberately killing fewer or even none of the distillery members. The more chaotic the country they were born in, the better. The emergence of the Serpent Blood Eye is just a sign.

According to the prophecy given back then, Beika Town's position is extremely important, and may even influence the transformation of the entire world.

While Akizuki Airi was fighting against the combined forces of the two organizations, in the real world, Akizuki Marina looked on with a look of surprise as she watched Akizuki Airi transform into a member of a mysterious organization.

Why did it turn out like this?

Looking at his completely unfamiliar younger sister, Akizuki Marina, on the screen, it was hard to imagine what she had gone through, and Akizuki Kozo felt a chill run down his spine.

Ellie, did Ellie really have this side to her?

Watching Akizuki Airi on the screen, who was ruthless and decisive, and whose punches would surely take the life of an ordinary member of the organization, Akizuki Kozo panicked a little.

"happy!"

On the screen, Akizuki Airi said gleefully, "One punch, one kill for the organization members." After crushing another person's heart into powder, Akizuki Airi took a breath and said:

"Although it doesn't quite match the thrill of slowly plotting and driving someone to madness, the feeling of going on a killing spree is still pretty good."

Just as Akizuki Airi finished speaking, the door on the cruise ship's deck suddenly opened.

"That's quite a statement, the barren land of the NESTS organization."

A voice that Ran knew all too well rang out at that moment, and Conan was stunned as he looked at the familiar figure on the screen.

Isn't that Uncle Mori? Why is he there?

"Oh, although seeing your name on the cruise ship's passenger list gave me a feeling that you wouldn't stay quiet, I didn't expect you to stand up at this time."

The Sleeping Detective, Kogoro Mouri!

Airi Akizuki spoke with feigned surprise, while Kogoro Mouri remained calm in the face of her.

"It seems that the magician was right. ZERO has completely gone astray. I didn't expect that even you, as a member of the leadership, would have been sown with the seed of manipulating emotions."

Just as Kogoro Mouri finished speaking, Snake frowned, clearly not having much of a liking for this suddenly appearing sleeping detective.

"What is a mere detective doing in our world? You should live in the light instead of courting death by interfering in the battles between our organizations."

Kogoro Mouri remained silent for a moment in response to Snake's words:

"That's right, the identity of the famous detective Kogoro Mouri is indeed not suitable for this situation, so let's use my other identity."

"By day I'm a famous detective, but by night I'm the Phantom Thief Kid, hailed as the Arsène Lupin of the Heisei era!"

After saying this, Kogoro Mouri grabbed his shirt and pulled hard, but a cloud of smoke appeared as Kaito Kid emerged from it.

Dressed in his phantom thief outfit, Kogoro Mouri looked at the crowd not far away and said slowly, "That should work. This time, I will participate in this battle as the phantom thief Kid."

"That phantom thief who always opposes our organization? I never imagined that the famous detective would have such a hidden side."

"But it doesn't matter. Detective or phantom thief, if you want to step into this battle, the only outcome you'll face is death."

Snake's threatening words did not change Kogoro Mouri's mind in any way, while in the real world, Kaito Kuroba felt that he had many questions.

???

Wait, who are you?

Seeing Kogoro Mouri transformed into Kaito Kid on the screen, Kaito Kuroba felt that Kid's reputation was ruined.

What the hell is going on in this parallel universe? Why is such a bizarre scene happening?

Kaito Kuroba feels that Kaito Kid's style is declining rapidly, and what does it mean for a famous detective to also be a phantom thief?

There's definitely something wrong with that world. If Kogoro Mouri is a phantom thief, then what am I? A high school detective?

Kaito Kuroba was at a loss for words, but at that moment Ginzo Nakamori nodded in certainty.

So that's how it is. So the Phantom Thief Kid was actually the sleeping detective.

If that's the case, then it's no coincidence that the famous detective and the kid named Conan have repeatedly thwarted the phantom thief.

It's all self-directed and self-acted; that phantom thief is just trying to boost his own fame.

Chapter 518: @PeacefulEgypt, we've found DIO. He's now a phantom thief in Japan.

"Kaito Kid is my dad?!"

Faced with this astonishing fact, Ran showed an expression of obvious surprise, while Sonoko's eyes gradually lost their luster.

Are you kidding me?
