A container on a medium-sized cargo ship exploded, and less eye-catching flames and smoke floated into the sky above the Port of Dover.
…
10:17 p.m.
After receiving the email, Ye Gengyi estimated the time of the ride and came to Park Street with the box he snatched from Snake in his hand.
Perhaps because of the proximity to the river bank, the humid air caused many stone bricks on the surrounding buildings to peel off.
The ringtone of the mobile phone is particularly low-key in this empty environment.
Ye Gengyi was very calm and did not take it out until the 45th second of the ring.
He didn't speak, but he vaguely heard a vague intake of breath coming from the other side of the phone. After a while, he heard Spider say:
"I'm surprised you came alone."
"Oh? Do you want me to say that I don't need to make any preparations to deal with you? Then I'll just say it again... cough."
Ye Geng cleared his throat and spoke slowly, barely missing each word, and said:
"There is no need to prepare anything to deal with you..."
The area he is currently in is halfway between the old and new theaters. Although it is night, as long as your eyesight is good, even without a telescope or other equipment, you can see if there are any other suspicious figures in this environment. personnel.
Is this guy, is this guy looking down on himself? He is too arrogant...
From the beginning of the transaction, I was led by the nose, and then my unresponsive behavior of answering the phone just now was the foreshadowing.
Ye Geng ignited the spider's anger with just one sentence.
The world-class killer gritted his teeth and almost rushed out without holding back, but his professionalism still allowed him to calm down.
No!
The other party might be stalling for time. Apart from the strange fact that he didn't bring his accomplice, he didn't even show any eagerness.
Ah... I understand. There is no way that person didn't gather some help. He must have a tracker on him, and maybe it was installed in the box where the gems are stored.
Spider analyzes the situation from an objective perspective.
He decided the trading location, and it seemed like he had the upper hand, but actually he didn't.
Because as Ye Gengyi said, Spider didn't dare to make the trap too obvious because he was very worried that the deal would be cancelled.
This is a psychology similar to 'gambling'. Human nature is, simply put, once you have something, you want more.
Knowing that there is a clear view around here, do you arrange for your accomplices to stay in a further area, preparing to outflank you after the transaction? Haha... Then let you experience for yourself how stupid such a decision is.
Spider cursed secretly in his heart, took a deep breath, and said:
"I'm at the old Globe Theatre, come quickly and trade."
"good."
Ye Gengyi hung up the phone and walked along the street to this dimly lit theater. The hazy night covered many details of the building, so from the appearance alone, this place was no different from the New Globe Theater.
Push the door and enter the courtyard.
On the stage directly in front, a straight figure stood there, making a gentleman's salute gracefully:
"Welcome to……"
"Stop talking nonsense."
Ye Gengyi gestured to the suitcase and interrupted mercilessly: "The gems are here, where are the people?"
"..."
The spider choked, and the expression under the mask became very ugly... Damn it, I must torture this guy later, I can't let this guy die too easily!
He quietly took a deep breath and snapped his fingers.
Snapped! Snapped! Snapped……
Several spotlights were turned on in sequence, and a figure slowly emerged from the back of the stage. From blurry to clear, Kuroba Kaito's arms were spread out, as if being lifted in mid-air by an invisible cross.
His mouth and eyes were covered with tape. When the lights came on, he could be seen trying to break free. However, he lacked a sharp tool that could cut the hidden threads, so the escape process was not optimistic.
Um? Why are there no mood swings...
The chest was rising and falling, and the movements were very coordinated. It didn’t look like someone was deliberately using hidden threads to create an illusion after killing someone...
Could it be...
Ye Gengyi made a quick judgment and opened the suitcase. While showing the gems inside to the spider, he stimulated his nerves to focus his attention to the bottom of the stage.
So it turns out that a mirror was indeed used. Naraku must have set up a trap, so let Kaito's biological father handle it as planned...
"Come on, exchange." Ye Gengyi said.
"Wait, how do I know the gems inside are not fake?" Spider raised doubts.
"Do you have a choice?" Ye Gengyi asked.
"I……"
The spider was choked again, and a feeling of depression radiated out.
Not only was he depressed, he was also puzzled.
Because the man in front of you really doesn't play by the rules. You said he doesn't care about Kaitou Kidd, right? He's given gems in exchange, but if you want to say he cares, there's no sense of that in the conversation.
In fact, in the original plan, Spider also wanted to influence the opponent's mentality through Kaitou Kidd, so that he could complete the hypnosis plan efficiently.
But now...it seems that the person affected is me?
Fortunately, as a top illusionist, Spider has an unusually sharp intuition for this matter.
After realizing something was wrong, he quickly adjusted his mentality.
As a result, there was only a few seconds of delay. When Spider was once again concentrating on preparing for hypnosis, the man in front of him had already closed the box and turned away.
? !
"Hey! Wait a minute!"
He couldn't care less about maintaining the elegant gentleman's posture and jumped off the stage.
However, he was careful and kept a moderate distance and did not approach rashly.
I learned to be smart, but this time I encountered something different in the hotel... Ye Geng took a few steps towards the door, turned half sideways and said:
"You suspected that the gem was fake, and I also doubted the sincerity of your transaction. In the end, I lost both my life and money."
Ye Gengyi grasped the timing very accurately. This seemingly inadvertent pause was stuck at a distance that made the spider uncomfortable.
It didn't matter if he was half-sideways, but he happened to be standing not far from the entrance and exit. At this time, he activated hypnosis. Needless to say, it was successful. What if it failed due to the influence of the environment.
He wanted to get closer, but he was worried about arousing Ye Gengyi's alert, causing the 'peaceful' deal to turn into gunfire negotiations.
Huh...Whether it is intentional or not, this person is definitely my 'natural enemy'. I must find an opportunity to kill him. Of course, before that, I have to punish him well. I have such a bad breath...
Spider realized that his emotions were almost in trouble again. After venting secretly, he quickly let out a breath and said:
"I am determined to get those four gems. You also agree that 'they' can change the life of the kid behind you, so you brought them here for trading, right?"
"Yeah." Ye Geng nodded and motioned for the other party to continue.
