"I still don't know what went wrong, but Regel probably knows where Shirley is hiding now."
"Then Shirley, isn't she in danger now?!"
In Edo Street, after hearing Mary's words in the earphones, Carly asked in a voice.
While they were chasing the fake Regel around Edo Street, the real Regel had quietly left here and headed towards where Shirley was hiding? !
When Shuichi Akai heard this, he quickly put away the shocked look on his face, pulled Carly and rushed towards the entrance and exit of Edo Street with a gloomy expression.
"Before contacting you, I have already contacted the operators who I arranged to stay near Dr. A Li's house."
Mary's voice sounded a little urgent in the earphones. It was obvious that she was in a hurry to leave Edo Street.
"But without exception, they have been unable to be contacted."
What this means is obvious.
Those remaining operatives have most likely been dealt with.
Of course, Mary also contacted Dr. Agasa, and during the call with Dr. Agasa, she heard the sound of the doorbell ringing. At the same time, she also vaguely heard the male voice that was very familiar to her, talking to Kudo Yukiko.
Subsequently, her communication with Dr. A Li was interrupted.
Although she made several calls in succession, there was always no signal on Dr. A Li's side and she couldn't make a call at all.
When things got to this point, it was clear to Mary that the worst had happened.
Bai Heqing escaped from the golden cicada with one move and left Edo Street under their noses. She also successfully eliminated the operatives she had left near Dr. Agasa's house without even giving them a chance to pass on this information to her.
If she hadn't seen the clues from Bai Hejing, I'm afraid they wouldn't have realized this until now.
However, even if Mary reacts, it may not be enough time...
Bai Heqing has successfully arrived at Dr. Ali's house, but they... are still stranded in Edo Street.
By the time they hurried over, Bai Heqing had already disappeared...
Obviously, this operation ended in their complete failure. Not only did they fail to catch Bai Heqing, but they also got Shirley involved.
【As expected of you...】
Mary accepted this very openly.
But there is no frustration. After all, depression cannot solve the problem.
She now only hopes that at least Kudo Yukiko, who is also at Dr. Agasa's house, can get some clues so that her subsequent tracing of Shirakawa Kiyo and Shirley will be easier...
Mary is not worried about Kudo Yukiko's safety. After all, Shirakawa Kiyoshi is a person who misses old friendships very much. With the relationship between the Shirakawa family and the Kudo family, it is impossible for him to do anything to Kudo Yukiko.
"Okay, we'll go there right away."
Already aware of the seriousness of the matter, Carly hung up the communication without saying anything else.
Later, she contacted Conan and wanted to convey this information to him.
The kid also just sent a text message, saying that he had met with the two undercover agents Bourbon and Kiel in the organization, and the three of them were discussing how to assist them in arresting Reger.
After all, they are all friendly forces on the same front, so they can't just slap their butts and leave, even though Great Britain has always had this traditional operation...
"Whoosh!"
At this moment, Carly suddenly felt a chill coming from behind her. Before she could respond, Akai Shuichi beside her suddenly stretched out his hand to push her away, and at the same time, he quickly turned around and punched.
The surprise attack failed. Bai Hejing quickly retracted his hand and blocked Shuichi Akai's fierce counterattack with his elbow.
Shuichi Akai took advantage of the situation and pursued him, throwing out punches rapidly and violently. Shirazuki continued to block while retreating one after another.
Finally seizing the opportunity, when Akai Shuichi swung another punch, he quickly raised his hand to push away his wrist, and then punched him in the chest with the other hand, forcing him to take several steps back. .
The two people who finally distanced themselves finally had a chance to take a look at each other.
"Who are you?"
Akai Shuichi took a deep breath to calm down, and looked at Shirazuki in front of him solemnly.
Although it was only a brief encounter, it was enough for him to realize that the figure that suddenly appeared in front of him had considerable strength.
Not only did his attack fail to defeat the opponent, but he was beaten back in the end.
To be honest, Akai Shuichi is very confident in his own strength, and there are not many opponents who can do this in front of him.
[Mary’s son. 】
Bai Hejing did not answer him, but just glanced at Akai Xiuichi, and then looked at Carly beside him, who was also watching her warily.
Because of Bai Heying, Bai Hejing had put on a new disguise mask and a windbreaker, which was completely different from her Qing Shuijing image.
"I... have something to ask you." Bai Hejing said while looking at Carly.
She had already left Edo Street, but because of her sister, she had to come back again.
Of course, Bai Hejing had no complaints about this, because there were some things she really wanted to know.
Bai Heying's proposal made her heart move.
"Who are you?"
This time it was Carly who spoke.
She recalled it carefully in her mind, but she couldn't remember any interaction between her and the person in front of her.
"Come with me."
Without any intention of answering these two people, Bai Hejing spoke again: "I don't want to hurt anyone."
This is the truth. Among the two people in front of her, she knows Akai Shuichi, and according to the information Bai Heying told her before, Carly should be the little girl who was rescued by Bai Heying and Mary ten years ago.
These two people are closely related to Mary. In view of the special relationship between Bai Heqing and Mary, unless Bai Heqing nods and tells her to deal with them, she will not do anything to these two people at will.
But the problem is that she came back secretly this time, and Bai Heqing didn't know about it.
Xiao Rui had already explained on the phone before that there were some necessary things that they had to ask Carly about.
Only in this way can they be sure to take the next step...
"snort!"
Akai Shuichi sneered and took up his stance again.
"It's really arrogant."
And the same goes for Carly.
Seeing the posture of the two of them, Bai Hejing sighed softly.
You still have to take action after all.
"excuse me……"
"..."
At the same time, at another exit of Mihua Street, Sharon, who had just changed into a disguise, suddenly took out the mobile phone on her body and looked down.
The caller ID above said "little girl".
【Xiaoying? This kid should still be in the US empire now, right? 】
Walking to a remote corner, Sharon answered the phone.
"Xiaoying, what's wrong?" Sharon asked warmly.
"Mom, I want to tell you something." Bai Heying said with a smile on the other end of the phone, her tone seemed happy.
This made Sharon couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Two days ago, Bai Heying suddenly called and asked her a lot of things related to Mary, and even mentioned Bai Heqing's funeral ten years ago.
But Sharon, who didn't want to get her involved in the organization's mess, didn't answer her questions at the time.
For this reason, Bai Heying had a big argument with her on the phone.
Now hearing Bai Heying's happy tone, Sharon was quite surprised. She had thought that her overly curious little daughter would have to be angry for a while before calling her...
"What's going on? You need to call your mother specifically to tell her?" Sharon asked with a smile when she thought of this.
"Haha, actually, I'm back in Japan now." Bai Heying replied.
"Eh?"
This surprised Sharon. Although she wanted to say something, she couldn't say anything after hearing Bai Heying's happy tone. She just asked instead:
"Are you still going to stay at that Maori detective's place?"
This sentence is not completely correct. Bai Heying rents a house by herself in Tokyo, but she does receive wages as an assistant to Kogoro Mori.
"Yeah, that's indeed the plan at the moment."
She didn't know what good thing happened to her, but Sharon always felt that the little girl's tone seemed to be particularly happy.
"By the way, Mom, I have a surprise for you."
"What's the surprise?" Sharon asked. Out of her understanding of her daughter, she suddenly had a bad feeling in her heart.
“What a big surprise!”
Bai Heying's tone became more and more excited, even with a hint of pride.
"Mom, you'll know when you look back!"
The uneasiness in her heart became more and more intense. Sharon quickly looked back, and then her pupils suddenly shrank.
Just over twenty meters behind her, Bai Heying was standing in the crowd, holding a mobile phone in one hand and a laptop in the other, looking at her with a smile.
On her laptop screen, there were two small spots of light very close together.
Apparently, she located Sharon's location through this phone call.
As for why she knew Sharon was here on Edo Street?
Of course, this was what Bai Hejing told her.
Seeing Sharon's extremely shocked expression, Bai Heying smiled even happier.
She asked into the phone:
"Mom, are you surprised?"
Continuing from the previous chapter, in the previous chapter, Bai Hejing asked Bai Heqing how to deal with Mary. Bai Heqing's answer was that there was no need to make a judgment now.
This sentence not only tells Bai Heqing that there is no need to attack Mary and others now, but it is also a subtle reminder about Bai Heqing's final outcome.
The last sentence is the same, I will write it slowly and you will read it slowly. (I’ve stayed up too late these past two days and my head hurts)
(End of chapter)
