"Uh...yes."

The waiter nodded repeatedly and went to the front door, waiting for Yamagami Isamu's next instructions.

"Password 40365".

"Yes."

As Yamagami Isamu's voice came, the waiter entered the password word by word as Yamagami Isamu instructed.

With a mechanical "click," the door slowly opened, revealing the scene inside to the two of them.

The precious and exquisite auction items were neatly arranged in transparent glass cases, and famous paintings and calligraphy were displayed in frames set in the wall.

Gems and cultural relics were all on display. Although there were only a dozen or so items, each one was extremely valuable. No wonder Yamagami went to such lengths to hold this illegal underground auction disguised as a charity auction.

The waiter was stunned for a moment, and his foot unconsciously took half a step forward, but the next second, a crisp metallic sound came from behind his head!

"click"

The sound wasn't loud, but it was very clear in the quiet environment.

The waiter stopped in his tracks and slowly turned his head, only to see a golden pistol pointed directly at his head, as if it would shoot him without hesitation if he made any move.

The dark muzzle of a gun appeared alongside Yamashiro's ferocious and smug smile, followed by his confident voice:

"In the end, I'm the one who wins! Right, Kidd?"

"Ah……"

The waiter chuckled softly, and his hand, hidden in his pocket, twitched slightly, as if he were doing something.

"Take your hand out!" Yamagami Isamu's eyes narrowed, and he spoke in a cold tone.

"Don't get excited, Mr. Yamagami."

Chen Feng no longer had the intention of continuing to pretend. He took his hand out of his pocket and acted very cooperatively, but the smile on his face showed no sign of nervousness.

Meanwhile, in a secluded cabin on the cruise ship, a petite figure was watching the video feed on a computer screen. However, after noticing the smile on Chen Feng's face, she pouted haughtily and muttered:

"This guy is really something, he always has that same infuriating smile that never changes."

"Ha ha……"

Upon hearing Ai's words, a soft chuckle came from the side. Akemi affectionately stroked her head and said:

"Alright, let's get to work."

"Ah."

Xiao Ai nodded, her fingers rapidly tapping on the keyboard. A few seconds later, a horizontal bar appeared on the computer screen:

"Transmitting..."

"1%..."

"20%..."

……

the other side.

Chen Feng raised his hands and slowly backed away into the dazzling warehouse.

With each step he retreated, Yamashita Isamu followed with his pistol, until he cornered Chen Feng against the wall, at which point he stopped.

Only then did Chen Feng feel an extremely faint vibration from the communicator on his chest. He then slowly raised his head to look at Yamashita Isamu, his calm expression unchanged.

"I don't think Mr. Yamagami would fire a shot here, right? After all, it's illegal to shoot someone without permission."

"Illegal?"

Yamagami Yu seemed to have heard something amusing, and his smile grew even more arrogant: "This is international waters! Why do you think I would choose this location?"

At this point, Yamagami Isamu's smile vanished, replaced by a murderous glint in his eyes: "That's because if a petty thief like you dares to cause me trouble, I can chop you up and throw you into the sea to feed the fish!"

"Tsk tsk tsk, I thought Mr. Yamagami was a law-abiding citizen. It seems I was overthinking it." Chen Feng chuckled.

Yamagami Isamu snorted coldly, offering no reply, but the murderous intent on his face intensified, his eyes narrowing slightly.

"go to hell!"

boom!

A deafening gunshot rang out from the muzzle, but the expected scene of a bullet piercing a skull did not occur.

Instead, a plume of white smoke emerged from the muzzle of the gun, almost instantly engulfing Chen Feng's figure.

This sudden turn of events startled Yamagami Isamu. By the time he reacted, the white mist had already begun to dissipate, but Chen Feng, who had been standing in front of him, had vanished without a trace.

"asshole!"

Enraged, Yamagami Yu pulled out a spare pistol from his waistband and stared at his surroundings with murderous intent.

Just then, Yamagami Yu felt a sound above his head. Alert, he quickly looked up and saw an A4 sheet of paper lying squarely on his face.

"You damned thief, all you can do is play these pointless tricks..."

Before he could finish speaking, Yamagami Yu was drawn to the contents of the paper.

"In 1983, during a banquet, the jewel—the Desert Rose—was stolen from the collection of British private collector Chloe."

Upon reading the contents, Yamagami Isamu frowned, but before he could make a move, countless A4 sheets of paper began to fall from above his head:

"In 1982, during a sea voyage, mercenaries were hired to pose as pirates and steal artifacts—Julius Caesar's war boots."

"In 1986, under the guise of a charity exhibition, they swindled the famous painting 'Maple Leaf Town' from the Polaris Charity Association."

"1987 years..."

Sheets of paper sprayed out of the vents and slowly fell, each one detailing what Yamagami had done and indicating the origins of the treasures in the warehouse.

Yamagami's face gradually darkened, but a few seconds later, a smile returned to his expression.

"Your investigation is quite thorough. Even if it's true, so what? This is international waters! Once the auction is over, these things will have nothing to do with me anymore. Trying to convict me based on this? Dream on!"

"I'm not afraid to tell you, all the artifacts in the display case are locked to the counter. Even I can't unlock it within 24 hours. If you're so capable, go ahead and move the counter along with it! Hahaha—"

At this point, Yamagami Yu couldn't help but let out a confident laugh.

Only then did Chen Feng's voice slowly drift in from the loudspeakers all around:

"Who said... I was going to steal these things?"

……

Chapter 426 Preparing for a "Business Trip"

"Who said... I was going to steal these things?"

"Ok?"

Yamashita Isamu frowned.

"The investigation is quite thorough. Even if it's true, so what..."

"This is international waters! Once the auction is over, these things will have nothing to do with me anymore..."

"This is international waters..."

"What was that sound?!"

The unexpected echo startled the arrogant Shan Shangyong, who quickly went to the closed tempered glass window and pulled open the curtains.

A white figure wearing a monocle stood straight in front of the window, dressed in pure white, with a long cloak swaying in the wind.

Seemingly noticing the movement at the window, Chen Feng turned his head and smiled slightly at Yamagami Isamu inside. The remote control he was holding in his right hand, which was wearing a white glove, was particularly noticeable.

Of course, none of these things concerned Yamagami Isamu.

What truly caught his eye were the commercial buildings on the shore not far away.

Around the harbor in Mikasa City, the LED screens of shopping malls that should have been displaying advertisements had all been replaced with images of the warehouse.

The previous footage was played on a loop on the giant LED screen, and his arrogant voice continued to echo in the air.

"This is international waters! Once the auction is over, these things will have nothing to do with me anymore..."

"This is international waters..."

Meanwhile, anomalies were also discovered in the cruise ship's cockpit.

Captain Kenji Ono and First Mate Yamato Inoue stared at each other, their eyes filled with utter bewilderment.

"This……"

"How did we end up driving back?"

Inoue Yamato's tone was filled with disbelief.

However, when their eyes swept across the satellite map on the cruise ship, it was clearly shown that they were in the high seas deep in the Pacific Ocean...

……

"asshole!!!"

Yamashiro's eyes were bloodshot, and he looked at Chen Feng as if he wanted to devour him, but he had no chance.

A group of police officers, led by Miwako Sato, rushed in by speedboat:

"Don't move! Isamu Yamagami, put down your weapon! Cooperate with us as we return to the Metropolitan Police Department to assist with the investigation!"

Looking at Chen Feng outside the window, and then at the group of police officers who had surrounded him, Yamashiro Yuuki gritted his teeth but had no choice but to put down his pistol and raise his hands to stop resisting.

Outside the window, Officer Nakamori, looking excited, was leading a few people slowly toward Chen Feng. He couldn't help but smile when he saw the white figure so close to him.

Ten meters... five meters... two meters...

"Haha! Gotcha! Kidd!"

Officer Nakamori suddenly lunged forward, pinning the white-clad figure to the ground.

But then he realized something was wrong. It wasn't Chen Feng at all; it was just a white suit with a cape!

There was also a white card stuck on it:

Today's operation is now concluded. Please excuse me for leaving.
