As for whether Dai Changsheng would steal credit that rightfully belonged to Sing Chow by doing this, there was even less need to worry.

Sing Chow was a nobody with no background or backing anyway. Even if he helped Wong Bing Yiu recover his service pistol, he would still end up being punished with traffic duty for taking the blame for all sorts of things.

Only after He Min could no longer hold on and fell asleep did Dai Changsheng call the puppet leader of the Quanxing Society, telling him to find any excuse to wipe out Big Fei's gang.

Though Big Fei was an arms dealer, he was actually much like Xiao Sa Ge—just an insignificant street punk. Otherwise, he would not have fallen so low as to recruit lackeys from schools.

Big Fei had only switched to the arms trade after hearing that it was profitable. In the end, his first shipment of weapons got stuck in his hands, and he could not find a buyer for the longest time.

Maple Leaf Gold Coins

Since Big Fei's underlings numbered only a little over twenty in total, they could not make any waves before the Quanxing Society.

After the Quanxing Society's boss deliberately picked a fight, Big Fei was forced to lose several million Hong Kong dollars at the gambling table. In the end, he could only use that unsellable batch of arms to settle the debt, including that "Gun of Goodness."

After obtaining the Gun of Goodness, Dai Changsheng immediately invited Wong Bing Yiu out for a meal.

Following a friendly discussion, the two became strategic partners. Dai Changsheng also returned the Gun of Goodness as a gift to Wong Bing Yiu, who was known for his "Scissor Legs."

After all, a Chief Superintendent like Wong Bing Yiu was essentially the ceiling most police officers could ever reach. His status was second only to the Commissioner and the Deputy Commissioner, so a favor from him was extremely valuable.

With Wong Bing Yiu's connection, Dai Changsheng's businesses became much easier to run.

Detective Conan World

"Ring, ring, ring..."

Amid the blaring alarm, Dai Changsheng groggily opened his eyes in bed. He slammed a hand down on the alarm clock on the bedside table, and the ringing abruptly stopped.

After waking up, Dai Changsheng first picked up his phone to check the date. Seeing that it was Sunday, he pulled the blanket back over himself and went back to sleep.

Ever since Shinichi Kudo had turned into Conan, time in this world had fallen into complete chaos.

Today might be Monday, only for tomorrow to be Saturday. Or it might be spring today, then winter tomorrow.

What left Dai Changsheng most speechless was that no one else seemed affected by the temporal chaos. Only he seemed to exist outside the timeline, constantly plagued by the messed-up flow of time.

From Dai Changsheng's perspective, more than half a month had passed since he last entered the Gray Mist Space.

But to everyone else in Conan's world, less than a week had passed.

Therefore, every day after being awakened by his alarm, Dai Changsheng had to check what day it was on his phone, lest he make another blunder like being late for school or going to school during a holiday.

After sleeping for another half hour or so, Dai Changsheng finally got dressed and washed up at an unhurried pace.

"Accomplices of the Italian robber gang leader Dino Cabana, who was arrested yesterday, are still on the run across the country. The fifteen thousand Maple Leaf Gold Coins they stole remain missing..."

As Dai Changsheng prepared breakfast and listened to the television news as usual, a breaking report suddenly caught his attention.

"Maple Leaf Gold Coins worth six hundred million yen?"

The corners of Dai Changsheng's lips rose slightly. "I can make a little extra money."

After finishing a simple yet nutritious breakfast, Dai Changsheng changed into workout clothes and calmly left his apartment.

"Changsheng, good morning!"

The moment Dai Changsheng reached the ground floor, a pleasant voice rang out. He instinctively looked toward it and saw a young girl with a unicorn hairstyle.

"Good morning, Ran."

To help Dai Changsheng become friends with Ran Mouri and the others, Vermouth had specifically rented an apartment for him next door to the Mouri Detective Agency.

Sometimes, Vermouth would disguise herself as Dai Changsheng's older sister and use the excuse of visiting him to get close to Ran Mouri and the others, bringing them snacks and pastries.

Noticing Dai Changsheng's outfit, Ran Mouri asked curiously, "Changsheng, are you going to the gym?"

"Yep! It's Sunday, so I thought I'd go work out. Ran, want to come with me?"

Ran Mouri smiled and waved her hand. "I'll pass. Sonoko and I agreed to go shopping today. Bye-bye~"

"Bye-bye~"

After parting with Ran Mouri, Dai Changsheng went to his secret base, used the Disguise Technique to change his appearance, then drove a black Toyota toward Tokyo Tower.

According to the original plot, the Maple Leaf Gold Coins stolen by the Italian robber gang should have been hidden in an unfinished building near Tokyo Tower, close to the river.

Dai Changsheng was certain it was an unfinished building because Conan and the others found the treasure map on a weekend, when pedestrian traffic was at its heaviest.

If the building hiding the Maple Leaf Gold Coins had not been an abandoned, rarely visited unfinished structure, other passersby would likely have discovered the coins before Conan and the others ever did.

Dai Changsheng did a quick search on his phone and soon pinpointed the building's location. He then found the bag of Maple Leaf Gold Coins worth six hundred million yen on its rooftop.

Since the Maple Leaf Gold Coins were stolen goods and could not be spent directly, Dai Changsheng drove to the Black Organization's secret research facility in Tokyo after taking them.

"That's..."

Gin, who was checking the surveillance feeds in the facility's monitoring room, quickly noticed the black Toyota that had appeared at the entrance. His eyes narrowed slightly.

Vodka, standing beside Gin, noticed his boss's reaction and also spotted Dai Changsheng on the monitor.

At that moment, Dai Changsheng wore a black trench coat and carried a black leather case. He looked like an utterly ordinary middle-aged man.

Vodka frowned. "Boss, why did Snowflake suddenly come here?"

Perhaps influenced by Vermouth, Dai Changsheng, who was also skilled in the Disguise Technique, preferred to complete missions through infiltration. He looked down on Gin's approach of relying on violence alone to get things done.

Under normal circumstances, unless he had received some special assignment, Dai Changsheng rarely came to the research facility under Gin's jurisdiction.

"Let's go. Let's meet our gentleman~"

A trace of mockery flashed through Gin's eyes as he led Vodka out of the monitoring room.

Bang!!!

Upon seeing Gin's long silver hair, Dai Changsheng did not waste words. He tossed the black leather case, which weighed over a hundred pounds, onto the marble dining table, then opened it to reveal the Maple Leaf Gold Coins inside.

"Gin, I happened to pick up these Maple Leaf Gold Coins while shopping today. They're worth six hundred million yen in total. Please help me clean them, then transfer the money into this account."

Watching Dai Changsheng spout such nonsense with a perfectly straight face, Vodka's mouth twitched.

Vodka did not believe Dai Changsheng's bullshit at all. Dai Changsheng had clearly been eyeing those Maple Leaf Gold Coins for some time. For all Vodka knew, he might even have anonymously reported Dino Cabana and sent him to prison.

Thanks to the passerby who likes novels for the 100 Qidian Coins donation, and thanks to the other readers for their support.

Shiho Miyano

Even Vodka, who was simple-minded and physically strong, did not believe Dai Changsheng's words. Gin, sly as a fox, naturally believed them even less, but he had never been one to get to the bottom of everything.

"According to the Organization's rules, the split for money laundering by core members is eight to one to one."

Gin glanced at the Maple Leaf Gold Coins and exhaled a ring of smoke. "Eighty percent goes to you, ten percent to the person laundering the money for you, and ten percent to the Organization.

"If you think that's too expensive, you can have that woman Vermouth launder it for you. You should be able to save another ten percent."

"Forget it!"

Dai Changsheng said helplessly, "If I let Vermouth launder my money, I'll be lucky if even ten percent ends up in my hands."

Since Dai Changsheng was still underage, most of the money he earned from missions had been taken by Vermouth and put into her private stash under the pretense of safekeeping it for him.

"Then I'll handle the laundering for you. The money will be in your account within half an hour at most."

After saying that, Gin called over two trusted underlings and had them carry away the Maple Leaf Gold Coins.

"Then I'll wait here for a while."

Dai Changsheng abruptly changed the subject. "By the way, does the Organization have any new missions lately?"

"Yes. The mission is to kill a female company president attempting to conduct insider gold trading with us. Interested?"

Dai Changsheng waved his hands repeatedly. "I'll pass! You know the thing I hate most is destroying pretty flowers."

"You really are as much of a gentleman as ever."

A flicker of displeasure passed through Gin's eyes—or more accurately, frustration that Dai Changsheng was not living up to his potential.

Looking across the entire Black Organization, there were not many official members Gin thought highly of. Dai Changsheng barely counted as one, and his mission completion rate was an exceptionally rare one hundred percent.

Moreover, Dai Changsheng was Vermouth's adopted son and had grown up in the Black Organization, so there was no need to worry that he might be an undercover agent.

The only thing Gin found unsatisfactory was Dai Changsheng's bad habit of refusing to kill women. Sooner or later, he would suffer for it.

"Forget it. It's too boring hanging around you people. I'd rather go play with Sherry."

As if he had not noticed the mockery in Gin's tone, Dai Changsheng headed for the laboratory where Shiho Miyano was located.

Seeing this, Vodka could not help asking, "Boss, shouldn't we stop him?"

Vermouth had once been used as a test subject by Shiho Miyano's parents for a period of time. As a result, she hated the Miyano sisters by association.

And as Vermouth's adopted son, before awakening the memories of his past life, Dai Changsheng naturally hated the Miyano sisters as well.

Whenever Dai Changsheng saw Shiho Miyano in the past, he would always find a way to play a prank on her, which could be considered venting Vermouth's anger for her.

"It's fine. That guy knows his limits. He won't affect the drug research."

Gin paused, then snorted coldly. "Besides, Sherry has been getting too willful lately. It's time she learned a lesson."

When Dai Changsheng arrived at the drug research center, he saw Shiho Miyano, wearing a dark red long-hemmed pullover beneath a white lab coat, inspecting the other researchers' work while eating a blueberry jam sandwich.

Though Shiho Miyano was young, she had inherited her parents' talent for pharmaceutical research, making her one of the research supervisors at the drug laboratory.

Perhaps because she was conducting an inspection, or perhaps because she was focused on enjoying her food, she failed to notice the figure slowly approaching her.

Dai Changsheng crept up behind Shiho Miyano, then crouched down with a wicked grin and formed a tiger hand seal.

Konoha Secret Taijutsu Ultimate Art: Thousand Years of Death!!!

"Pfft!"

Shiho Miyano's weak point suffered a devastating blow, and she immediately spat out the sandwich in her mouth. Her pretty face turned deathly pale as she instinctively braced herself against the desk in front of her, barely stopping herself from collapsing to her knees.

"Sherry, this is the secret technique I specially prepared for you—Thousand Years of Death! Hahahaha..."

Seeing Shiho Miyano completely lose the ability to resist, Dai Changsheng burst into wild laughter.

Sweat pouring from her in pain, Shiho Miyano glared at Dai Changsheng as if she wanted to kill him and gritted out, "Snow... Snowflake! I... I won't let this go..."

"If you can, come catch me! Hehehe..."

Dai Changsheng cheekily patted his backside at Shiho Miyano, then swaggered out of the drug research center.

"That bastard!"

Unable to walk at all, Shiho Miyano could only clench her delicate fists in resentment and watch the culprit leave.

After pranking Shiho Miyano, Dai Changsheng went to the facility's training room and spent some time practicing karate and marksmanship.

Although Dai Changsheng had learned quite a few fighting styles, karate was still his primary discipline.

After all, in the world of Detective Conan, karate was the ultimate answer. Even Makoto Kyogoku, the pinnacle of combat power, practiced karate.

Before long, the 480 million yen from laundering the Maple Leaf Gold Coins was transferred into Dai Changsheng's bank account.

After receiving the money, Dai Changsheng did not intend to linger at the facility. He drove to Sawaki Dental Clinic.

The attending dentist at Sawaki Dental Clinic was a standard black-haired, straight-haired beauty named Yoko Sawaki. She was thirty-three years old.

According to the original plot, Yoko Sawaki would carefully construct an alibi, use Ayumi from the Detective Boys as cover, and cleverly carry out the revenge murder of Nakamoto at 7:30 p.m. on a certain Monday, avenging her brother's murder twenty-six years ago.

To be honest, Yoko Sawaki was a very kind woman. If she had been able to obtain justice for her brother through legitimate means, she would never have taken revenge herself.

In the original plot, although Conan exposed Yoko Sawaki's method, all useful evidence had already been destroyed.

If Yoko Sawaki had refused to confess, Conan would have had no way to send her to prison. Yet she ultimately chose to turn herself in at the police station.

Even if Yoko Sawaki could deceive everyone else, she could not deceive her own conscience. She had to pay for her crimes.

Therefore, after Dai Changsheng awakened the memories of his past life, he approached Yoko Sawaki himself. In exchange for helping her kill Nakamoto and avenge her brother, he brought this kind-hearted woman under his command.

Dai Changsheng already had plenty of blood on his hands anyway, so one more made no difference. There was no need to let Yoko Sawaki dirty her own hands.

To avoid attracting unnecessary trouble, Dai Changsheng deliberately disguised Nakamoto's death as an accident.

Natsuki Koshi

After learning that Dai Changsheng was coming, Yoko Sawaki hurriedly hung a sign outside the dental clinic saying that it was closed for the weekend. Then she called Asako Miyoshi and asked her to gather at the clinic.
