Chapter 33 Paradise Hunting (Edited) “Long time no see, Bo…
Lin Xi understood that this was the Bourbon form.
It is a basic operation for the eyes of two-dimensional characters to change color.
"Of course, that's because I want to work with you." She tilted her head and smiled slightly, "I'm very interested in the Fengtan Group."
"They destroyed my hunting grounds. Cleaning up the rubbish is necessary to maintain a clean game environment."
"Besides, we haven't seen each other for a long time, and I want to see you too."
"Long time no see, Bourbon."

Later.
Yokohama Fantasy Land, Infirmary.
"Ms. Mouri, thank you for taking care of me..." Haibara Ai was lying on the hospital bed, looking embarrassed and asking Mouri Ran.
"It's okay, I'm happy to be needed by Ai." Mao Lilan said gently, "Do you feel better now?"
"It's almost done, thank you Miss Maori."
"That's good." Mao Lilan touched Huiyuan Ai's head, "However, if Huiyuan wants, you can call me Xiaolan sister like Conan?"
Haibara Ai secretly twitched the corners of her mouth.
Who wants to be like that guy and call him by such a sticky nickname?
"Sister Lan." She called obediently.
Mao Lilan touched Haibara Ai's head.
She knew that Haibara Ai's parents were busy and were currently living in Linxi's apartment, in the same situation as Conan, so she felt a little more pity for Haibara Ai.
The sensible and quiet little girl is so cute.
"Get well soon, so Sister Lin won't worry."
"good."
Haibara Ai glanced at the bracelet on her wrist.
She still felt a little guilty for using the lame excuse of fainting from heatstroke and needing someone to accompany her to pull Ran Mouri out of the "Super Giant Snake" queue to prevent her from riding that roller coaster.
"I feel much better, Sister Ran." Huiyuan Ai said softly, "Sister Ran, go play. I'll rest here for a while."
It would take another two hours to queue up for "Super Giant Snake", so Mao Lilan probably won't go to queue up.
"Huh?" Mao Lilan asked in surprise, "Is it okay to be alone?"
"It's okay." Huiyuan Ai said, "I asked Sister Lin, she will be back soon, and I'm not feeling bad anymore. Go and have fun, Sister Lan."
"good……"
After Ran Mouri left, Haibara Ai looked bored at the faint light coming through the curtains.
It's afternoon...is the matter resolved?
Sister Lin clearly said that she would be back later.
Ai Haibara stared at the light spots on the windowsill, and memories flashed through her mind.
[“Sister, when will you come back?” Xiao Zhibao asked timidly at the door.
The black-haired woman turned around.
"Soon, Shiho," she smiled, "I'll be back soon."
The person was standing against the light, so Xiao Zhibao couldn't see her face clearly. She just said happily, "Okay, then I'll wait for my sister to come back..."
When did that happen? It must have been many years ago...
Suddenly, the figure of the black-haired girl in the memory flashed, and her black hair... was dyed a bright red like fire.
"Hmm..." Haibara Ai covered her head.
What's going on? I just had a sudden headache...
"Xiao Ai? Xiao Ai." A voice came from far away, and a pair of gentle hands held her face. "What's wrong with you? Does your head still hurt?"
The concern in his honey-colored eyes brought the little girl back to reality.
It’s Sister Lin.
Sister Lin is back.
Huiyuan Ai breathed a sigh of relief: "I'm fine, Sister Lin. You're back? How did things go?"
Lin Xi pinched her face.
"It's solved," she said. "Why didn't you tell me you had a heat stroke? I should have gotten you a parasol."
"Here, I brought you some mung bean soup to cool you down." She took out the lunch box.
Haibara Ai looked at the bowl of mung bean soup that was brought in front of her, and the uneasiness in her heart was unconsciously soothed, and she smiled.
However, she soon saw faint scratches on Lin Xi's exposed arm.
The smile faded again.
"Sister Lin..."
"Um?"
"Can you let me join you next time?"
"Are you talking about what happened today? It's a bit dangerous, Ai."
"Sister Lin knew there was danger, but you still went?" Huiyuan Ai grabbed Lin Xi's hand and lowered her eyes. "I don't want to be the one waiting here all the time."
Lin Xi looked at her and thought about the words of rejection in his mind, but finally he succumbed to the look in her eyes.
It’s okay, she can protect her no matter what.
The entire organization belongs to her, who can hurt her?
"Okay, I promise you." Lin Xi said, "Drink the soup first, dear."
…
Shenshan Art Museum.
"Catch Kidd!" Nakamori Ginzo roared with full energy, and the policemen behind him shouted "Yes!" in unison and chased after the white shadow.
Kidd laughed, clicked his hat, and the smoke bomb in his hand rolled to the ground and exploded. The police's vision was immediately obscured by a cloud of smoke.
"Report to the commander, Kidd escaped from that direction!"
"What?! Chase after me!"
When most of the police had left, Kidd, who was disguised as a police officer giving directions, smiled and thought, that should be enough.
The direction he pointed was exactly the warehouse where the stolen goods were hidden. If they led the police there and provided solid evidence of Soichiro Fukayama's crime, he would not be able to escape.
On the other side, Conan and Hattori Heiji also came to the Red Castle Hotel.
Hattori Heiji called the client's cell phone and yelled into the phone: "Ito Suehiko! We have completed your commission and know your identity! Come out now, stop hiding!"
Conan looked around the hall they were in.
"He should be here," he whispered.
Hattori Heiji nodded, then continued loudly:
"Just surrender, Ito Suehiko!"
Conan looked up and signaled to him, and Hattori Heiji followed him. He reached out and moved the golden carving decoration next to the door, and a wall moved away, revealing the secret passage behind it.
They walked along the secret passage for a long time and finally saw Ito Suehiko sitting with his back to him.
He was sitting in a wheelchair, facing countless display screens showing surveillance footage from various parts of the park.
However, his eyes were covered with silk cloth, which looked thick and no light could penetrate.
Conan was shocked and figured something out.
Ito Suehiko heard the voice, ignored the two of them, and sighed softly.
"The three of us were once the closest companions," he began to confess. "Reiko was bold and lively, and I was imaginative, loved planning things, was honest and loyal, and was loud and noisy."
"We met in college, were both interested in crime, founded CRY, graduated at the same time, and started working at my company together. I thought things would continue like this, but... we had a conflict."
"Masaharu and I both fell in love with Reiko and pursued her at the same time. However, Reiko didn't like us. Romance was just her way of entertainment, and she had no intention of dating or marrying us. Things got really bad between the three of us at the time. Thinking about it now... maybe that was when Masaharu started abusing drugs."
“I tried my best to mend the relationship and no longer yearned to be with Reiko. I just wanted the three of us to reconcile… Our hobbies were all crime, so I planned a robbery.
I believe there's no stronger bond than sharing a crime. "Ito Suehiko took a deep breath. "I was the mastermind behind the robbery on April 4th. I laid out a detailed and meticulous plan, from the heist to the money laundering, everything was perfectly laid out."
"However, something completely unexpected happened that day." Ito Suehiko pushed the wheelchair and slowly turned around, and only then did the two of them see his entire body clearly.
He was seen with his eyes covered with silk cloth, sitting in a wheelchair with his legs weakly covered with a thick cloth. He had an indifferent expression and did not seem surprised that the two people could find this place.
"Shoji killed someone," he said.
"I clearly stopped him, but he still killed someone. That's where the plan went awry. To make matters worse, we happened to be seen by Kaito Kidd."
So that's how it is, Conan thought, no wonder Kaito Kid appeared.
Ito Suehiko sighed. "We were in a panic that day, but we ultimately committed the crime. I was so focused on repairing our relationship, but I never imagined that our shared crime would only worsen it."
"Masaharu and I blamed each other for his impulsive shooting, then turned against each other over the division of the spoils, and finally fell out over Reiko. Reiko must have been very disappointed in us, and... she was truly a woman more ruthless than either of us—that's what I loved about her at the time—and she decided to get rid of Masaharu and me."
"On the evening of April 14, she asked me to go to the dock, so I drove there. Unexpectedly, she had tampered with my car, and I had an accident there. The accident broke both my legs and hit my head, but I was lucky enough not to die."
"While I was recovering from my injuries at the Red Envelope Hotel, I was investigating Reiko non-stop. I refused to believe that she killed me. She could kill anyone, but not me!"
"So after learning that Shoji was missing, I began investigating. However, no matter how hard I investigated, I could only find out that he was killed by a formidable behemoth, an organization whose very name was taboo."
Conan frowned slightly when he heard this, and inexplicably thought of the Black Organization.
"Also, my eyesight deteriorated due to the aftereffects of the car accident, and I eventually became completely blind. I could only rely on the help of others—yes, you, the detectives. I sent invitations to the detectives and their relatives and friends, threatening the lives of their relatives and friends to help them solve the case, but I never thought of actually detonating a bomb."
"Today, the truth has finally been revealed... That organization was actually called the Minetoko-gumi, the Yokohama mafia. Nishio Masaharu wasn't murdered by Reiko, but disappeared because he was involved in a drug trade. However, the car accident that night..." Ito Suehiko muttered, "was indeed Reiko Shimizu's murder."
Hattori Heiji couldn't help but ask: "How do you know?"
Ito Suehiko gave a wry smile. "Someone sent me a car accident report. The brake pads were tampered with..."
"Who?" Hattori Heiji asked, "Is he also a detective?"
"No, I don't know him," Ito Suehiko said. "And that person... knew I couldn't see, so he even recorded the report and sent it to me."
Hattori Heiji was surprised.
Someone who knew Ito Suehiko couldn't see and yet was still able to inspect the wreckage must know Ito Suehiko's identity...
"You guessed right." Ito Suehiko guessed what they were thinking and smiled. "Even when I was still recovering from my injuries, someone had already noticed me. Even before I sent the invitation letter to the detective."
Something flashed through Conan's mind, but that inspiration quickly disappeared, leaving only a faint sense of disharmony of unknown origin.
He wanted to think about it carefully, but Ito Suehiko's next action interrupted him.
He took out a gun from under the blanket and pointed it at his temples.
