Detective Conan: A Dream Come True, Ran is Startled

After getting home from get off work in the evening, Lin Jin took a quick shower and then eagerly lay down on the bed.

He closed his eyes and began to recall the dream he had last night, hoping to enter that dream again.

Not long after, he fell asleep, his breathing even and steady.

When Lin Jin opened his eyes, he found himself in the locker room.

This confused him; he didn't understand why he was there.

Suddenly, I heard sobbing behind me.

Lin Jin turned around and saw Xiao Lan sobbing quietly.

Seeing the karate uniform she was wearing, he couldn't help but wonder: Did she lose a karate competition?

Thinking of this, Lin Jin walked over and gently patted her back.

With tears in her eyes, Xiao Lan turned around and saw Lin Jin. She burst into tears and threw herself into his arms.

"It's not your fault, you've already done your best," Lin Jin said, gently patting Xiao Lan's back to comfort her.

He guessed that the dream was a true reflection of Xiaolan's inner thoughts.

On the surface, he didn't seem to care, but deep down he felt incredibly guilty.

"But...but...Mom and Dad, and Sonoko, they all want me to win the championship, right?" Ran cried uncontrollably, her shoulders shaking with sobs.

"How could that be?" Lin Jin easily picked up Xiao Lan and then sat down on the bench.

As he wiped Ran's tears with his sleeve, he said, "The most important thing is that you weren't injured. Winning or losing doesn't matter... Didn't you see that even though you only got second place today, your dad and Sonoko are both very happy?"

“They…they were just trying to comfort me,” Xiaolan replied, sobbing.

Lin Jin spoke softly, "You're overthinking it... Just because you don't win the championship, does that mean Sonoko won't be your friend anymore? Does that mean your father won't treat you like a daughter anymore?"

"Of course not," Xiaolan replied, and then gradually realized that she had been too sensitive.

After they understood each other, her mood gradually improved.

Xiao Lan only just realized that Lin Jin was holding her so close to her, and that she was crying. This made her feel ashamed and embarrassed, and she lowered her head involuntarily: "I'm... I'm sorry, Officer Lin. I... I've caused you trouble."

As she spoke, Xiaolan suddenly remembered something. She mustered her courage and stammered, "Officer Lin... are you... are you real?"

"..." Lin Jin immediately realized what was going on when he heard this.

His dream... came true.

Otherwise, Xiaolan would never have said such a thing.

After realizing this, Lin Jin understood that he absolutely could not admit it.

If I admit it, my personal image will be ruined.

After all, he had forced himself on her yesterday.

Not only did he force himself to use the bow, but he also broke it.

Besides... if I admit it, how can I continue to get freebies in my dreams in the future?

Realizing this, Lin Jin smiled slightly and said, "Silly child, how could this be real? This is a dream... I am just something you imagined."

"A dream...?" Xiaolan's expression was full of confusion: "But if it was a dream... then why did I strain my thigh muscle yesterday... after that... um, after that?"

As she spoke, her cheeks flushed and her eyes flickered.

In response, Lin Jin gently stroked Xiao Lan's face and said, "You've got the cause and effect backwards. It's not because I caused your thigh muscle strain, but because you strained your thigh muscle that you had this dream."

"Is...is that so?" Although Xiaolan was a little confused, she was still more willing to believe this "fact".

The things that happen in dreams come true, and no one would believe it if I told them!

"But... why did I dream about Officer Lin, and not someone else?" Xiaolan asked again, expressing her doubts.

"Why would you dream about me? You'll have to ask yourself that." Lin Jin smiled and continued to deceive, "I'm just a figment of your imagination... Every move I make is a projection of your subconscious."

"I...I imagined it?" Xiaolan blushed slightly as she recalled what happened last night. "But...but I don't know you well...we've only met a few times at the crime scene."

Lin Jin said unhurriedly, "Love is irrational and cannot be measured by the length of time."

"Some people you meet once and can't forget. Others you've been with for over a decade, yet they still linger outside your heart."

"..." These words resonated with Xiaolan, and combined with her own experience, they made a lot of sense.

"You're injured... Let me see." Lin Jin said, pulling open Xiao Lan's karate uniform belt.

"Ah...I...I'm fine now." Xiaolan blushed and tried to stop herself with her hands.

However, the resistance was weak, amounting to only a token effort.

Lin Jin easily loosened his belt and took off his karate uniform.

He looked at Xiaolan's fair and tender skin and said, "Hmm... let me massage it for you to help with blood circulation."

"Relax, don't be nervous."

"In dreams, you can let go of any burdens and face your true self."

"........."

Shortly afterward, the lockers inside the changing room were hit with a clanging sound.

Chapter Three: A Reenactment of the Eri Kisaki Case

"Woo~~~~"

Xiaolan woke up from her dream again.

She was panting heavily, her body drenched in sweat.

Looking at the familiar layout of the room, I gradually felt at ease.

Xiaolan came to her senses and still felt somewhat incredulous.

This dream felt so real!

So real!

The touch, the sound, the feedback, the feeling... it's just like the real thing!

While reflecting on her experience, she couldn't help but blush at her bold actions when she thought about what she had done in her dream.

If others found out about this, they would definitely say I'm a lecher.

Fortunately... it's a dream, and no one but myself will know.

Thinking of this, Xiaolan couldn't help but giggle.

Lost in thought, she reached out and touched her pants, realizing she had to change them again.

In addition, Xiaolan also felt a dull ache in her buttocks.

She looked in the full-length mirror and found no marks.

Recalling what Lin Jin said in the dream, it wasn't because of those things in the dream that her buttocks hurt, but because her buttocks already hurt, which is why she had those dreams.

This made her feel somewhat at ease.

After changing her pants, Xiaolan lay back down to sleep, her mind replaying the dream she had just had, stirring up waves of emotion within her.

————————————————————

The next day, in the morning.

Lin Jin arrived at the Metropolitan Police Department feeling refreshed.

He was now certain that his dreams could indeed influence reality!

This discovery greatly excited Lin Jin.

Now that they know their cheat code is a dream come true.

It would be such a waste not to make good use of it!

After he sat down, he began using his computer to search for research results related to dreams.

With the current level of human technology, we haven't discovered anything useful about dreams.

We can only roughly know that dreams are a projection of the human subconscious.

Further details could not be found later.

"Forget it, forget it. If I don't know, I don't know. Even if I did know, it probably wouldn't help my situation." Lin Jin muttered to himself and closed the page.

He began to ponder something: since he could have close contact with Xiaolan in his dreams, could he do the same with other people?

As my thoughts drifted to this point, Inspector Megure walked over and said, "Brother Lin, we have a case. Call the police!"

"Understood, Inspector Megure." Lin Jin snapped out of his reverie and replied, then gathered his thoughts and went to respond to the call.

Fortunately, this case is not complicated.

The perpetrator was an impulsive criminal and was apprehended by the police before he could even clean up the crime scene.

The evidence is irrefutable and there's no denying it!

"This case was so easy~~~ We didn't even need to do any deduction, we just caught them red-handed!" Inspector Megure said cheerfully, "Brother Lin, I know a good restaurant around here, let's go there for lunch!"

"Thanks, Inspector, but I have other cases to handle. Call me if you need anything." Lin Jin declined Inspector Megure's invitation and drove away.

He is now going to put his ideas into practice.

We drove to the nearest hotel.

Lin Jin booked a room for an hour and lay down on the bed to go to sleep.

He wanted to see if he could enter a dream state while taking a nap.

While pondering, Lin Jin quickly drifted off to sleep.

When he opened his eyes again, he found himself in a bright and open space.

"It seems... even during my lunch break, I can enter a dream world." Lin Jin gained a better understanding of his cheat ability.

He looked around.

I found myself in a fairly spacious office.

Lin Jin looked around and felt that the place was very familiar; he was sure he had been here before.

Just then, the sound of footsteps came from behind.

He turned around and saw a professional woman dressed in office attire walking back and forth in high heels.

After the other person turned around, Lin Jin finally saw her face clearly—Eri Kisaki.

Lin Jin then remembered that this was Eri Kisaki's office, and he had been here a few times before for the purpose of handling cases.

However, to his surprise, Eri Kisaki seemed not to see him, pacing back and forth as if she didn't know what was going on, muttering something to herself.

"How should this case of assault against a woman be defended? The facts of the case are really not clear enough."

"To prove that the relationship between the client and the female plaintiff was consensual, more details are definitely needed."

"Unfortunately, there were no eyewitnesses, so we cannot know the specific details."

"........."

Lin Jin listened to Eri Kisaki's mutterings and immediately understood that she was thinking about how to defend herself.

This made him sigh, realizing that Eri Kisaki truly lived up to her reputation as a workaholic.

Even in my dreams, I'm still thinking about work.

That's why she's considered the undefeated queen of the legal profession.

As he pondered this, a bold idea stirred within Lin Jin.

He then stepped forward and asked, "Attorney Fei, it's unlikely you'll make any progress if you keep thinking like this."
