I will traverse countless worlds and become a god entirely on my own!

"That's right, that guy seems to crave attention, and his motivation seems to be somewhat artistic?"

"Oh, a mad artist?"

Lai Sheng Tong and Lai Sheng Ai echoed, having heard everything Bai Ye had said earlier.

Such people won't just commit one crime and disappear; they will definitely continue to commit crimes.

"So, let's do a thorough investigation later. After one failure, we must make sure he knows how powerful Cat's Eye is."

Laisheng Lei nodded, and seeing her two younger sisters had cheered up, she breathed a sigh of relief.

Losing is not terrible; what is terrible is losing and never recovering.

Next time, Cat's Eye won't lose again.

"Lupin, you bastard! You just wasted the information I got for you!!"

Inside the abandoned building, Fujiko Mine looked at Lupin with a look of anger and disappointment. She had given him the information, but he still failed. He had clearly planned what to do after obtaining the gem.

"No, the main problem is that we don't have any information on that guy!"

Lu Ban III argued that the failure was clearly due to the lack of information about Bai Ye; if he had had Bai Ye's information, he would never have failed.

"He doesn't play by the rules. We all sent out invitations, but he didn't. We were in the shadows, while he was in the open. It's normal for us to fail!"

"."

Fujiko Mine stared at Lupin, her excuse was fresh and unconventional, but she really couldn't find a reason to talk about Lupin.

It was indeed because I failed to provide Lupin with the information that this situation arose.

"Fine, you failed anyway, I'm leaving!"

Fujiko Mine glanced at Lupin, then put on her sunglasses and turned to leave.

She knew that Lupin couldn't be entirely blamed for this, but she had placed high hopes on him, and Lupin had failed, and the person he failed against was someone who was completely unknown.

But it doesn't matter. Even though I failed this time, tomorrow's headlines will be about Lupin, not me.

Meanwhile, elsewhere, Kaito Kuroba was analyzing why he had failed that day.

The more he thought about it, the more distressed he became. He scratched his head, realizing this was his first failure in history!

hateful!

"Hello, it's me. Did you do what happened today?"

On the other end of the phone, Gin's distinctive hoarse voice also carried a hint of disbelief.

Gin made time to watch today's live stream. He originally wanted to see if this guy was suitable for cooperation, based on the principle that if he didn't even dare to go there, he would definitely kill him the next time he saw him.

After watching today's live stream, he couldn't understand one thing: how exactly did Bai Ye leave that place?

"It's me, I've got the Queen's Tears."

As he spoke, Bai Ye took the phone away from his ear, took a picture of the Queen's Tears, and then sent it to Gin via MMS.

Upon seeing the Queen's Tears in the photo, Gin fell silent.

It really was him?

"Very good, the mission is complete!"

"money!"

The White Nights are straightforward: two million US dollars. Shouldn't the settlement be made?

"Account".

Bai Ye sent the money to an anonymous account, and received it quickly.

"Okay, I'll hang up now if there's nothing else."

After receiving the money, Bai Ye prepared to hang up the phone; he had no intention of calling the old men late at night.

"Where's the stuff?"

"Not Big Brother? You only asked me to steal this thing and gave me two million, but you didn't say I had to give you this thing and you'd give me another two million. Just because I accepted the mission doesn't mean I have to give it to you, right? Don't you understand inequalities?"

"Are you trying to double-cross me?"

Gin's face instantly darkened. Was this guy playing him?

"Please! Are you out of your mind or am I? This thing is worth over ten million, and you're offering me two million to buy it. Why don't I just resell it on the black market? You're just here as a middleman making a profit! You haven't provided me with any intelligence or other assistance, and you're just giving me ten million for nothing? Do you think I'm stupid?!"

Byakuya felt that Gin must be crazy, otherwise he would never have made such a request.

So, something worth over ten million US dollars only costs you two million?

"Big brother, I challenge him to a one-on-one duel!"

Too embarrassing!

Seeing his older brother's darkening expression, Vodka immediately had the idea of ​​expressing his loyalty.

"I need to have this gem appraised. If it's what we need, I can buy it for you at the original price. If not, you can keep it. Consider the two million as payment for this mission!"

Gin remained silent for a moment, then, under Vodka's shocked gaze, uttered something that even he himself dared not imagine.

It seems I really underestimated it; this gem is definitely worth more than two million.

What the other party said was not wrong.

"Sure, but it will cost 100,000 to take a look!"

You're even darker than me, huh?!

Gin's face darkened further, and the next second, he hung up the phone.

It costs 100,000 just to look at it? Why don't you just die?!

"It really is ugly, Gin."

The bar door was pushed open, and Vermouth walked in from outside. She casually placed her motorcycle helmet on the bar counter, and looking at Gin, who had a gloomy expression, she couldn't help but joke, "That's quite a rare sight indeed."

"Vermouth, I need your help. Help me steal a gem!"

Gin turned to look at Vermouth. He didn't want to fall out with Byakuya for the time being, as the latter was capable. So he let Vermouth take action and try to see if she could get the gem.

"What? Did you, Gin, decide to become a master thief after watching that duel between the great thieves today?"

Vermouth had just returned from the scene. She was originally on her way back after finishing her business, but when she passed by the square, she was attracted by the duel on the big screen.

So I stopped and watched for a while, and I have to say that the masked man's performance style was quite unexpected.

"No, Big Brother wants the Queen's Tears. We've been looking for that gem lately, haven't we? Maybe the Queen's Tears is it."

Vodka explained from the side.

"That guy made a deal with me to steal it, but he asked for ten million. I don't want to fall out with him right now, so if you can, could you help me steal it?"

Gin explained casually.

"Oh, I see. I want the goods, but I don't want to pay for them, right?"

A look of understanding flashed across Vermouth's face. "If you put it that way, then you understand!"

"Do you have any intelligence?"

"nothing now."

"Then how can I steal it for you?"

Belmode is numb.

So you knew nothing and just let yourself steal?

Does he think he's a god?

"I'll give you information later. Aren't you going to America?"

"not going."

Vermouth shook her head. She had already returned this time and would not be going there again. Someone else would be in charge of America's side.

"Okay, I'm off."

Gin nodded, then got up to leave; he didn't want to spend much more time with Vermouth.

Besides, there are things I need to keep an eye on at the lab.

Back in the lab, looking at Gin's expression, Sherry muttered to herself, "Anyone who didn't know better would think someone owed him money."

"How's the medication treatment going?"

The research on APTX4869 is not yet fully complete; all stages so far have resulted in death, which is not what the organization wants.

"It's not ready yet."

"What about the last investigation? Is Shinichi Kudo already dead?"

In the park, Shinichi Kudo, who was given APTX4869 by himself, is still in a state of uncertainty about his death.

"already dead."

A strange light flashed in Shiho Miyano's eyes as she lowered her head.

"Keep experimenting, Sherry!"

Gin nodded, then turned and left.

"Experiment. I'm about to escape hell."

Shiho Miyano looked up at Gin, who probably thought she knew nothing.

Her sister is dead, and she will no longer conduct any experiments for the organization. She wants to leave this place. If she can't leave, then she might as well die. After all, her sister is already dead, and there is no one left in this world for her to cherish.

the next day.

The entertainment section's front page was filled with yesterday's big thief battle, especially the fact that the police actually watched as the thieves all escaped safely, which was heavily sensationalized in the newspapers.

"I knew it! That guy's called the most artistic thief of the new era!! A thief is a thief! He actually became famous by stepping on us!!"

Sato Miwako picked up the newspaper and, looking at the various boasts about the masked man and the artistic claims made by these thieves, almost couldn't hold back her laughter.

"There's nothing we can do. If you look online, you'll get even angrier. A lot of people are saying that our Metropolitan Police Department is incompetent, and that guy, like Kid, has gained a lot of fans this time. Some people are even asking for the same clothes he wears!"

Shiratori Ninzaburo rubbed his forehead. He had predicted yesterday that this would be the situation, but now it seemed that he had underestimated the problem.
