Ke Xue: The thief Cao is actually myself

Chapter 546 Girl, please surrender to me! (Please give me a monthly ticket!)
The night grew darker, and the thick darkness spread like ink, covering the entire street tightly. Every shadow seemed to hide an unknown secret.

At this time, on the street some distance away from the abandoned building, an old shop stood quietly on the side of the street.

On the doorplate at the entrance of the store, there are a few large and powerful words: "The Last Supper". In the dim light, it exudes a mysterious and depressing atmosphere.

Suddenly, a soft and rhythmic sound of footsteps broke the silence of the night.

A woman walked into the store with light steps. She had a graceful figure, and her every move showed elegance and charm. However, beneath her seemingly light steps, there was a mysterious aura that was hard to guess.

The woman had a clear goal and walked straight towards the wall facing the door. On the wall hung a huge puzzle of "The Last Supper". Under the dim light, the characters on the puzzle seemed to be endowed with strange souls, with different expressions, staring at the uninvited guest quietly.

The woman walked briskly to the puzzle, took out a piece of it swiftly, and then without hesitation, fitted the piece into the puzzle on the wall perfectly.

A crisp "click" sound suddenly rang out in the silent shop, like a thunderbolt breaking through the night sky. Then, the drawer of the table that held the puzzle slowly opened.

In the drawer, a document was lying quietly. On the cover of the document, the portrait of Kogoro Mouri was particularly eye-catching, as if he was examining everything around him with an invisible gaze.

In addition, the file also records in detail all kinds of information about Kogoro Mori, from his living habits, case-handling style to his recent movements, without any omissions.

Every detail was recorded clearly, as if someone was secretly watching his every move.

The woman's gaze was fixed on the document, her eyes narrowed slightly, and an elusive light flashed in her pupils.

She frowned slightly, her eyes paused on the information for a short while, then she slowly raised her head and began to carefully look at the surrounding environment.

The shop was dark and silent, with only her soft breathing and the faint chirping of insects in the distance, interweaving into an eerie night melody.

"That guy, hasn't come back yet?"

The woman whispered softly, her voice echoing in the empty shop, carrying a hint of doubt and worry.

Logically speaking, that guy should have gotten rid of Kogoro Mori and others and returned to this base.

But why, now that she has arrived, the other party is nowhere to be seen?
Did he leave temporarily for some reason? Or something?
Thinking of this, she paused for a moment, and a scornful smile suddenly appeared on the corner of her mouth. Her eyes were filled with deep disdain and ridicule. While she was laughing, she murmured softly to herself: "Could it be that I messed up?"

If that were true, she would laugh her teeth off!

However, it would be good if that guy really failed, then no one would bother her.

Thinking of this, a smile appeared on the woman's lips again, but this time there was a hint of sinisterness and calculation in the smile, like a poisonous snake hiding in the darkness.

At this moment, there was a sudden sound of light footsteps outside the store. The sound was particularly clear in the silent environment, and every sound seemed to strike the woman's heart.

The woman's eyes instantly became alert. She quickly closed the document, put it back in the drawer, and turned around to stare at the door. All the muscles in her body were tense, ready to deal with any emergency at any time.

As the footsteps got closer, the woman's heartbeat accelerated involuntarily.

She didn't know who was coming, but she knew that she had to remain calm to deal with any situation that might arise next.

As the door of the "Last Supper" shop was slowly pushed open, a figure appeared at the door.

In the dim light, the visitor's face was blurry, but the woman could keenly feel a familiar breath coming towards her.

"You're finally back." The woman breathed a sigh of relief and said softly, "You've kept me waiting for so long!"

However, when she saw the appearance of the person coming, the expression on her face froze instantly, and a hint of fear and disbelief appeared in her eyes.

She saw a person standing at the door. He had fair skin, handsome features, and soft, loose black hair that reached his ears, like a scattered night sky. It was none other than Bai Ye, from whom she had just separated not long ago.

"What? Are you surprised that I'm the one coming?"

Looking at the woman who was looking at him in shock, Bai Ye raised his eyebrows slightly, his eyes somewhat deep.

Because the woman in front of him was none other than his girlfriend who he had just lost by accident, and also the one that Mouri Kogoro and others had been desperately looking for, Maya Tachibana.

"No need to wait for Yuda, he won't be back!"

Tachibana Maya pretended to be calm, but her eyes flickered unconsciously, trying to hide her inner panic, "Mr. Bai Ye, what are you talking about? I don't quite understand!"

"You really don't understand?"

Bai Ye's eyes were fixed on Maya Tachibana, and he took a step forward and walked into the store. The dim light cast a shadow on his face, making his expression even more unpredictable. His voice was low and calm, but with an unquestionable majesty, "My meaning is very simple, Yuda has failed, and he will not come back."

"Because he has been caught by us and handed over to the police!"

Maya Tachibana's expression changed slightly, but she quickly regained her composure and forced a smile: "Mr. Byakuya, congratulations on solving Yuda's problem. I think Detective Maori should be relieved too."

As she spoke, she calmly observed Bai Ye's reaction, trying to find some useful information from his expression.

Bai Ye raised his eyebrows slightly, but his eyes were cold, "Ms. Tachibana Maya, you don't have to pretend anymore. I already know your true identity and the conspiracy between you and Yuda!"

When Tachibana Maya heard this, a trace of panic flashed in her eyes, but she quickly concealed it, "Mr. Bai Ye, did you misunderstand something? I'm just an ordinary amnesiac, how could there be any conspiracy?"

"Ordinary amnesiac?"

Bai Ye interrupted her, a hint of mockery flashing in his eyes, "Then how do you explain this place and this information?"

He pointed at the puzzle and the drawer on the wall, his eyes sharp again.

Maya Tachibana was silent, she knew she could no longer hide it.

She bit her lips, which turned pale, and suddenly sneered, "You know everything, so what?"

"If you think that I will surrender obediently after my identity is exposed, then you are very wrong."

Tachibana Maya took a deep breath, and a trace of determination flashed in her eyes: "Don't forget, I'm not that easy to deal with!" In a flash, Tachibana Maya suddenly grabbed her necklace, and her slender fingers pulled hard, and then a thin steel wire popped out. She shook her wrist, and the steel wire attacked Bai Ye's throat like a spirit snake, and the steel wire flashed a cold light under the dim light.

Bai Ye was prepared and easily dodged the attack by turning sideways.

After Maya Tachibana missed her first strike, she launched a series of fierce attacks. Her movements were swift and brutal, completely lacking her previous gentle and graceful appearance. At this moment, she seemed like a Shura walking out of hell.

"Tachibana Maya, you are indeed a tough opponent, but do you think that you still have room to resist after I personally attacked you?"

Bai Ye dodged flexibly, his figure floating like a ghost in the dim shop, and said, "Tachibana Maya, stop struggling in vain. You can't escape."

However, Maya Tachibana was like a madman, completely ignoring Bai Ye's dissuasion, and her attack became more and more fierce. The steel wire in her hand flashed coldly under the dim light, and every time she swung it, it brought a whistling sound.

After narrowly avoiding the attack again, Bai Ye seized the opportunity, took a step forward, blocked the steel wire with his arm, and then grabbed Maya Tachibana's wrist.

"Let me go!" Maya Tachibana struggled hard, her face full of anger and despair.

"I won't let go!" Bai Ye held her wrist tightly, his eyes firm, "Unless you obey me!"

Even within the Black Organization, Tachibana Maya's skills can be considered outstanding.

She has a slender figure and moves as swiftly as a leopard. Her attacks are swift and fierce, and each of them carries a deadly threat. She is also agile and clever when dodging the enemy's moves.

If he could recruit such an extraordinary female killer under his command, there is no doubt that he would gain an extremely powerful boost.

Seeing this, Tachibana Maya quickly clenched his other hand into a fist and punched Bai Ye in the abdomen. Bai Ye slightly turned sideways and blocked Tachibana Maya's attack with his elbow, then swept his leg and tripped Tachibana Maya to the ground.

After falling down, Tachibana Maya wanted to get up, but Bai Ye pinned her down and she couldn't move. Her eyes were suddenly filled with resentment and anger.

But at this time she also knew that it would be difficult for her to defeat Bai Ye with force.

Looking at the pretty face under him, which still had a trace of reluctance and anger, but did not continue to attack, Bai Ye smiled slightly, but there was a trace of deep calmness in his eyes: "Now, you should listen to me."

Tachibana Maya was slightly startled, with a hint of complex emotions flashing in her eyes, but she quickly returned to her indifference: "Humph, don't think you can make me surrender like this."

Bai Ye looked at her and said seriously, “Maye, I know you were forced, you don’t want to do these things at all!”

Upon hearing this, Tachibana Maya's body stiffened slightly, and the movement of her hands also paused for a moment. But soon, she returned to her fierce look, "Don't talk nonsense, I do all this for myself!"

Bai Ye was not scared off by her tough attitude. "Tachibana Mayo, I have investigated you. You used to have a happy family, but that organization destroyed everything for you. You worked hard for them, but they are still threatening you. Do you want to continue living like this?"

Hearing these words, a trace of pain and confusion flashed in Tachibana Maya's eyes. She gritted her teeth, her eyes reddened, "I have no choice. If I don't do it, they will kill me!"

Bai Ye looked at her and softened his tone, "You have a choice. Join me and we can destroy this organization. You won't be threatened by them anymore."

Tachibana Maya raised her head and looked at Bai Ye, her eyes full of hesitation: "But, I... I have done so many bad things, can I start over? Besides, they won't let me go."

Bai Ye sat up from her body, stretched out his hand, pulled her up from the ground, then patted her shoulder gently and struck while the iron was hot: "Believe me, as long as you are willing to change, everything will be in time. As for that organization, we will work together to find a way to deal with them."

The defenses in Tachibana Maya's heart began to waver. She looked at Bai Ye's determined eyes, and a strange color flashed in her eyes.

After a long silence, Tachibana Maya seemed to have finally made up her mind and suddenly spoke. Although her voice was a little hesitant, it also revealed her determination to burn her boats: "I... I am willing to cooperate with you. I want to get rid of that organization."

She slowly raised her head, her eyes full of determination, as if at this moment, all her hesitation and fear were dispelled by this light, "I'm tired of being controlled by them."

Over the years, she had been endlessly harassed and threatened by that organization and had long since developed a deep dislike for it.

It's a pity that with her strength, she is powerless to resist.

However, Bai Ye standing in front of her at this moment gave her a glimmer of hope.

If Bai Ye could really help her get rid of that devilish organization, she wouldn't mind working with them.

As for the master-servant position between the two after overthrowing that organization?

She has been struggling in the dark for many years, so naturally she will not easily be inferior to others.

By then, whoever has more sophisticated means will naturally occupy the dominant position.

Bai Ye walked forward and nodded to Tachibana Maya, "Welcome to join us."

Of course he knew that Tachibana Maya's choice to surrender now was more or less insincere and she was forced to do so and might betray him at any time.

But he had enough confidence to control this rouge horse.

Moreover, once you get on his ship, it won’t be easy to get off!

……

the other side.

Conan and Mao Lilan had been searching in the intricate streets for a long time, and fatigue and anxiety gradually appeared on their faces.

After searching for a while, the two came to a remote street. It was silent all around, with only the sound of their footsteps echoing in the empty street.

"That is?"

Conan was walking and observing his surroundings. Suddenly, his eyes were attracted by a magnet and fixed on a telephone pole on the side of the road.

His steps suddenly stopped, his body tensed up instantly, and an expression of extreme surprise instantly appeared on his face, as if he had seen something incredible.

Looking at the thing on the telephone pole, Conan couldn't help but exclaimed, his voice filled with irrepressible excitement and nervousness, that voice seemed particularly abrupt in the silent night: "Nakamachi, 9-13?"
