"We will continue to investigate and let you know the results later."

Hattori Heizo left quickly.

Lin Jiashu, who stayed behind, ignored the pain in his left hand, raised his left hand in front of him, tried to clench it into a fist and then opened it, trying this over and over again.

Writing with the left hand is not a problem.

Hayashi Yoshiki wouldn't be so stupid as to injure both of his hands so that he couldn't write in the Death Note.

As for the conversation with Odagiri Toshiro just now, which revealed that the "murderer" had more efficient abilities, it was the deliberate result of Hayashi Yoshiki.

The murderer possesses inhuman abilities.

Leaving this impression on the task force would help him with his subsequent arrangements.

Anyway, as long as Lin Jiashu doesn't reveal any flaws, no one will suspect him.

In fact, the more powerful the murderer's impression is, the less likely it is that someone will suspect the people around him - after all, even if the murderer who can do such a thing is not supernatural, he should at least have a brain developed like a monster.

People who are limited by insufficient knowledge and intelligence generally have this kind of thinking.

Shortly after Hattori Heizo left, Xiaolan returned.

She sat on the chair next to her and considerately asked Lin Jiashu how he felt now.

"I'm fine...but where are Heiji and Conan?"

"As soon as they went out, they suddenly slipped away in a hurry and disappeared."

"Is that so?"

Hearing what Xiaolan said, Lin Jiashu immediately recalled Conan's position before he left, and after thinking about it, he couldn't help but smile.

Not long after, the dark-skinned Osaka boy and the elementary school student returned.

Both of them looked like they were worried, but they tried hard to hide it.

"What did my dad tell you, little brother?"

Hattori Heiji walked up and asked.

Just as he stood up to talk to Lin Jiashu to attract attention, Conan, who was standing next to him, secretly took down the bug stuck under the bed.

241

Chapter 241: Jundu says no to killing? What a joke!

Lin Jiashu recuperated for nearly five days before he was finally discharged from the hospital and returned to Beika Town.

He went back by train by himself.

Because Xiaolan and the others came to Osaka originally to take advantage of the weekend just to take care of Lin Jiashu, Xiaolan took two extra days off, and only hurried back to Beika City after confirming that Lin Jiashu's condition had improved.

After all, Conan also has to go to school.

"Don't do anything so dangerous next time. Do you know how worried I was when I heard that something happened to you?"

It was Eri Kisaki who came to pick him up from the station.

Listening to her chatter along the way, Lin Jiashu had no choice but to nod in agreement obediently.

Only after he smiled and assured her that he wouldn't do it again did Kisaki Eri calm down a little.

"Did you tell Xiaolan that you're back?"

"Yes, I told her when I bought the ticket last night."

"That's good. The kid kept telling me he was worried about you."

Turning the steering wheel and turning right at the intersection ahead, Kisaki Eri said while looking at the road ahead.

Lin Jiashu smiled.

During the days he was in the hospital, Xiaolan often sent messages to ask about his condition, and she was very happy when she learned that he would be discharged and return to Mihua soon.

In fact, it's not just her.

Upon learning that Lin Jiashu was being targeted by the murderer, Bai Ma Tan felt extremely guilty and kept sending text messages to ask about his situation. He also became more and more concerned about the murderer.

During the days in the hospital, a dark-skinned young man would often come over, claiming to be taking care of the injured, but in fact he was always hinting at things related to the accident and the murderer.

But Lin Jiashu is very tight-lipped.

"If I had known earlier, I shouldn't have listened to you, Xiaoshu. I should have just put my work aside and come look after you..."

"It really wasn't necessary. By then I was almost able to move around on my own, and the nurses at the hospital were very considerate."

"Is it only considerate to you?"

“…That’s not the case.”

Lin Jiashu was speechless.

Seeing his slightly embarrassed look, Kisaki Eri couldn't help but smile.

——It was only then that she felt some sense of reality.

Xiaoshu was indeed fine, which made her feel relieved.

"Let's have dinner with Xiaolan and the others tonight. I'll make a reservation at the restaurant. Let's celebrate your discharge from the hospital, Xiaoshu."

"Okay, but I can only eat lighter food now." Lin Jiashu smiled as he looked at his right hand which was in a sprain and had difficulty moving.

"of course."

“…But actually, when I got off the bus, I was still looking forward to whether Aunt Eri would bring me a nutritious breakfast from McDonald’s.”

"How about I make a restaurant reservation for McDonald's tomorrow morning?"

"Okay."

"What's good about it? It's really——"

There was really nothing Hibari could do with him.

Lin Jiashu laughed cheerfully.

As the car turned the intersection, the road conditions ahead became complicated. Kisaki Eri concentrated on driving, while Hayashi Yoshiki picked up his mobile phone.

Just as he came out of the station, Gin sent him a text message but he didn't have time to reply.

Gin: "The mission objective has been sent to your email."

Regarding the matter of someone wanting to kill him, Gin's text messages now were very concise.

Usually, Lin Jiashu would reply with "Okay" or "OK", but this time he was editing another reply.

Cointreau: “Not this time.”

Gin: “?”

On the other side, Gin narrowed his eyes after receiving the news.

Cointreau actually said no to murder?

Are you kidding me?

Cointreau: "I'm injured, and the doctor said I need to rest now."

Gin: "What's going on?"

Cointreau: "I was hit by a car and also affected by the explosion."

When Gin saw the reply, a chill gradually spread over his body.

He typed with a cold face.

Gin: "Who did it?"

Cointreau: “Myself.”

"..."

Gin, who had just become cold, quickly warmed up, but his frown deepened.

What does Cointreau mean by this?

Before he could ask, the other party suddenly sent him an address with date and time.

Gin forwarded this message directly to Vodka's phone.

"Check it out."

"Okay big brother."

Vodka started working without saying a word.

He skillfully used the computer and the software developed by the organization to retrieve surveillance footage based on the address and time. In less than ten minutes, he had downloaded the required content.

Gin opened the document.

After reading the contents for a while, Gin said nothing.

But Vodka, who was standing next to him, watched the whole thing and muttered after a long pause: "...Cointreau, is he sick?"

The car accident and explosion in the video are undoubtedly Cointreau's methods.

But what is he planning?

Are you looking for excitement because you are bored?

Gin glared at Vodka upon hearing this and no longer had any hope for this little brother's head.

He took a cigarette from the pack and lit it.

Gin could guess that Hayashi Yoshiki might have used this accident to involve himself in order to achieve some purpose, but he didn't expect him to make it so big.

Aren’t you afraid that one mistake will kill you?

But Gin is not the type to worry about others after all. He just said, "I'll assign the task to Cohen and the others" and ignored it.

Lin Jiashu deleted the text message directly.

Although he refused Gin's mission, he has been using the Death Note to kill people in recent days - after all, when Lin Jiashu was lying in the ward, the murderer was still killing people outside, which made his suspicion, which he originally did not have, even more unlikely.

"Is it convenient for Xiaoshu to move like this now?" Kisaki Eri glanced at Lin Jiashu's right hand.

"It's okay, it's nothing serious."

"I heard Xiaolan say it all. She always felt that you were trying to accommodate others but didn't want to cause trouble for them..."

Kisaki Eri's tone was calm. As the light ahead turned red, she looked over here with gentle eyes that seemed to gleam with water. "But sometimes people always need to rely on others. There's no need to be so stubborn all the time."

"……OK."

Although Kisaki Eri appears to be strict, she is actually very gentle at heart, just like Xiaolan, but she doesn't show it very often.

"I've cleaned up your house for you. Go back and have a good rest, then wait for the feast tonight."

"Okay, I'm looking forward to it." Lin Jiashu said this and smiled again, "Then can I ask Aunt Yingli to buy me a McDonald's breakfast tomorrow?"

"...You can rely on Xiaolan for small things like this."

Kisaki Eri also laughed.

She suddenly said this, which was almost an explicit hint, that she wanted him to spend more time with Xiaolan - Xiaoshu must have understood it, and she was very supportive of it.

"But Xiaolan should have classes tomorrow, right?"

"The kid certainly won't mind."

"……so."

Lin Jiashu looked out the car window unconsciously.

Speaking of Xiaolan, what he is actually more interested in now is that Conan knows about the murderer who used accidental killings... Hattori Heiji has been hinting at it in his ward those few days, and he must have informed Conan a lot.
