Living in Tokyo, starting with a lifestyle-related job

But then Asai Yasuo's dagger was suddenly kicked away by the man in black.

next second.

Asai Yasuo was kicked away by the man in black and fell heavily on top of them.

Then immediately after.

These people didn't even have a chance to get up.

He suddenly felt several sharp pains all over his body, and then collapsed to the ground without even groaning.

Seeing that everything had settled down, the man in black bent down and took away the 'pre-announcement letter' he had left behind.

But at this time.

Hisao Takikawa, Hazuki Saijo, and two other detectives finally entered the exhibition hall under the guidance of security personnel.

As soon as they entered, they witnessed the men in black taking down several thieves in succession.

The speed was so fast that they couldn't react in time, and the thieves were all knocked down.

Immediately afterwards, they noticed the man in black walk to where the thieves had fallen, as if he wanted to take the painting they had just taken.

Seeing this, the four detectives immediately guessed that the man in black must also be one of these thieves. The reason he knocked out his accomplices must have been because of a dispute over the loot, which led to a fight!

Without a word, Hisao Takigawa, Hazuki Saijo, and the others immediately drew their guns and issued a warning:

"Don't move!"

"If you move again we'll shoot!"

The security guard who was leading the way did not expect this to happen here, but why didn't the alarm in front of the painting go off?

Although he didn't know what was going on, he pressed the alarm button that was built into his body without hesitation.

The entire art exhibition was suddenly filled with a loud and piercing alarm!

After finishing this task, he immediately reported the situation and instructed other security personnel to immediately seal off the entire exhibition area.

In an instant!

All the doors in the entire art exhibition slowly began to close with unbreakable bars, sealing off all the doors!

Hisao Takikawa, Hazuki Saijo, and the others felt somewhat relieved upon seeing this.

Saijo Hazuki shouted:

"This place is sealed off. You have no chance of getting out. Give up the fight!"

However, the man in black remained unmoved and calmly picked up the 'announcement letter' he had just dropped.

Upon seeing this, Longchuan Jiuxiong fired a shot into the sky without hesitation.

bang~

He warned coldly, "Move again, and the next shot will hit you!"

at this time.

Detectives including Saijo Hazuki, who noticed the guns and ammunition on the ground next to the man in black, became even more serious, gripping their pistols tightly and staring intently at the man in black in front of them.

I was terrified that he would pull out his gun and fire at any moment.

But the man in black remained completely calm, even ignoring Longchuan Jiuxiong's warning, and waved to them as if saying goodbye.

Longchuan Jiuxiong was so unscrupulous that he immediately became angry.

Just as he was about to make some harsh remarks.

Suddenly.

The main power switch in the exhibition hall seemed to be controlled by some invisible force, and suddenly tripped.

All the lights were turned off at that instant.

The entire exhibition was suddenly plunged into darkness.

Takashi Takashi, detective Hazuki Saijo, and other security personnel were stunned and stood there dumbfounded.

The criminal police officers reacted the fastest. They quickly ducked and rolled over, looking for something to hide behind, while also immediately taking out their portable flashlights to illuminate the surroundings.

Especially the spot where the man in black had just been standing.

But after discovering that the man in black had suddenly disappeared.

They all panicked.

Longchuan Hisao shouted:

"Don't panic, this place is sealed off, the men in black definitely can't escape."

"And the security at the exhibition, quickly use the radio to notify your accomplices to turn on the backup power."

Upon hearing this, the security personnel immediately complied.

soon.

The power was turned on again.

However, a scene that shocked everyone unfolded.

Inside the sealed-off exhibition hall, the man in black had vanished without a trace.

Everyone searched for a long time, but they couldn't find any trace of Shiro Kaede, as if he had never appeared at all.

Although Takashi Takashi knew that all the doors to the exhibition were sealed, he had a vague feeling that the man in black might have left the place in the darkness just now.

Saijo Hazuki and the security guards didn't sit idly by either; they immediately took out handcuffs, ropes, and other items to restrain the unconscious thieves.

Takigawa Hisao walked up to the group, lifted their hoods, and discovered that Asai Yasuo was not there.

After frowning and thinking for a while, he turned to look at the fake security guard. After observing the man carefully, he seemed to discover something was wrong.

Hisao Takikawa reached out and lifted the security guard's clothes, frowning as he discovered that the man was wearing a fake leather face mask. After struggling to lift it off, he was pleasantly surprised to find that the man was Yasuo Asai!

But the surprise was only momentary. The bigger question now is who that man in black was and how he managed to leave without anyone noticing.

Longchuan Jiuxiong pondered for a long time but still couldn't guess. He felt that he should wait until Asai Yasuo woke up so that he could learn some information about the man in black.

And at this time.

After dealing with Asai Yasuo, Shiro Shiro was already satisfied and thought that since Takigawa Hisao and the others were coming, he didn't need to wait for the police to arrive before leaving.

He got into a taxi and started preparing to go home.

As the car started, he checked the time and realized it was already one o'clock. He thought that at this hour, his aunt and Erina were probably already asleep.

That's good, then he won't have to make so many excuses and explanations anymore.

Chapter 447 The dust has settled! I'm sorry, Bai Feng, I was wrong.

Family.

When Shiro Kaede returned, it was already past one o'clock.

"I'm back," he said habitually as he pushed open the door.

However, Bai Feng didn't expect anyone to respond, since it was already very late.

My aunt and Erina are probably asleep by now.

Surprisingly, however.

He heard his aunt's reply.

Sato Ayaka, who had been half-asleep, perked up considerably upon hearing Kamishiro Hakufu's voice. She rubbed her heavy eyelids, a gentle warmth emanating from her drowsy expression, and said, "Welcome back."

Shiro Shiro looked at his aunt with surprise and asked, "It's so late, why aren't you asleep yet, Auntie?"

While speaking.

He also noticed that Erina was sleeping on Ayaka Sato's lap.

"And Erina too, why are you sleeping in this place?"

Ayaka Sato smiled softly:

"No matter what, Bai Feng, you usually come home very late, so I was a little worried about you and couldn't help but stay in the living room to wait for you to come back."

"As for Erina, she actually thinks the same way I do and wants to wait for you in the living room."

"But my aunt felt that I was enough, so she called Erina back to her room to sleep. But as you know, she's quite stubborn, and I couldn't persuade her no matter what I did."

"Then we can only let her be."

After finishing her sentence, Ayaka Sato gently combed Erina's beautiful hair as she fell asleep, a sense of relief in her eyes.

As Shiro Kaede listened to his aunt's explanation, something deep within him was subtly touched.

It would be a lie to say that someone had no feelings at all if they were waiting for you to come home so late at night with the lights on.

Shiro Shiro wasn't quite sure how to express these feelings, let alone how to put it. Finally, he scratched his cheek and said:

"Thank you, Auntie."

Ayaka Sato's round face puffed up slightly, and she said somewhat unhappily:

"We're all family now, why are you thanking me?"

"Don't say thank you anymore, or I'll get angry."

Shiro Shiro was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and nodded, saying:

"Ah."

Sato Ayaka was much happier to see Bai Feng agree, then her gaze fell on Erina on her lap, and she suggested to Bai Feng:

"Bai Feng, I can't move Erina by myself."

"She's prone to catching a cold if she sleeps here."

"Why don't you do what you did last time and carry her back to her room to sleep?"

Kamidai Bai Feng nodded and agreed:

"Well, I'll do it."
