Conan: What's wrong with my Yan Shuangying's painting style?

"Captain, how are you? Are you seriously injured? If so, let's evacuate you first!"

Elenika said nothing, but tore off a bandage from her belt and bandaged the place where she had been scratched by Mr. Mouth's dagger to stop the bleeding. Then, she picked up the rifle she had dropped on the ground.

She checked the condition of the rifle, then spoke with a firm look in her eyes.

"Keep going, we're not done yet!"

------

Ms. Lips opened her eyes.

She felt a little dizzy and slowly groped her way up from the ground.

The once smooth skin on the arm had turned black, and one could even faintly smell the aroma of meat.

Ms. Lips's expression turned extremely ugly. Although her face was already ugly enough after being disfigured in the explosion, it was even more ugly now than a normal disfigured face.

She never imagined that the hacker could remotely overload her computer and cause it to explode!

This was beyond the capabilities of hacker technology. Unless it was in science fiction movies, it would be impossible to do such an outrageous thing. Who was that hacker? Why had she never heard of him?

Swish————

Ms. Lips pulled out the pager, which was still intact and barely usable.

She glanced viciously at Shitara Shigekichi over there, and then directly started to contact the trio of Mr. Glasses, Mr. Mouth, and Mr. Nose.

Judging from the time, they should have dealt with Yan Shuangying and are on their way back.

However, there was no response from the other end of the pager, leaving only a burst of buzzing sounds on Ms.'s lips.

"...Could it be that even if the three of them attacked together, they would still be no match for Yan Shuangying?"

Ms. Lips' heart sank.

She couldn't imagine how powerful the killer could be if these three people couldn't deal with him at the same time - but he was definitely not the type she could deal with alone. She had to leave here now, abandon the hostages and escape!

However, before Ms. Lips could put on the things and leave, she heard footsteps.

bottom up.

The sound of footsteps approaching from the first floor to the small room on the second floor.

Family, please adjust the clocks and move the update to the afternoon.

I fell asleep while writing at twelve o'clock. I just woke up and now I am too sleepy to write anymore. I will take a nap and start writing when I wake up in the afternoon. Sorry.

Chapter 243 Who is faster, you or me? (5/5)

At the Longshen Economic Research Institute, the sound of footsteps from an unknown source was approaching from below.

Ms. Lips, who was disfigured because of the computer explosion caused by Kusakabe Makoto's remote control, ignored the pain in her body. Alarm bells were ringing in her heart, and she felt that a great danger was approaching.

She grabbed Shitara Shigekichi, who was lying beside her after being hit by the exploding laptop. As a member of the bandit group, she easily pulled Shitara Shigekichi up and held him in front of her.

Swish————

Ms. Lips pulled out a pistol from the butt hanging on the back of her leather jacket and pointed it at the back of Shitara Shigekichi's head. She only glanced at the stairs out of the corner of her eye, waiting for the man to appear on the second floor of the Ryushin Economic Research Institute.

Tick, tick, tick.

The footsteps continued to move upwards, like a heavy hammer, hitting Ms. Lips' heart again and again.

Finally, she saw the full appearance of the owner of the footsteps - wearing a black coat, sunglasses, and leather boots.

There is no doubt that this is the legendary figure that has been circulating in Beika Town for a long time, Yan Shuangying, who is known as half-human and half-ghost and the best gunslinger. Moreover, unlike the first Yan Shuangying who appeared in the surveillance, this Yan Shuangying has no hat!

Although, Ms. Lips had never seen the real Yan Shuangying, it was just the first moment she saw this person.

She was certain that the person who appeared on the second floor of the Dragon God Economic Research Institute at this moment was definitely the real person in the urban legend, Yan Shuangying, who had not died in the siege and was not buried under the abandoned theater!

"Yan, Yan, the twin eagles!"

Shitara Shigekichi, who was held hostage by Ms.'s lips, widened his eyes and recognized the classic look of the visitor.

He always thought that Yan Shuang was dead, so the people he contacted were all people who claimed to be members of Yan Shuang's Eagle Team.

But now it seems that Yan Shuangying is probably not dead at all. The reason why he has not appeared in the past week or so is simply because he has temporarily left Beika Town and is unable to split himself into two places!

But these are no longer important. No matter whether the person who came here is really Yan Shuangying or not, it doesn’t matter. What matters is that he has a gun pointed at the back of his head and he is about to die——

"Yan Shuangying, save me! I'm the one who contacted you, and they haven't found the MO disk yet!"

"If, if you rescue me now, I will take you to get the MO disk that stores all the transaction information and relationship network. Then you can catch them all in one fell swoop!"

Shitara Shigekichi, who was already seventy years old, spoke loudly.

He doesn't look like an old man of his age at all. Perhaps the current critical situation forces him to unleash his potential?

————MO disk.

Ms. Lips knew very well how terrifying the second Yan Shuangying that appeared in the blockaded area was.

Compared with him, the first one to appear, Yan Shuangying with a hat, was not an opponent of the same level at all. Even if the other three members of the bandit group joined forces, they would most likely die at his hands. She had no chance of winning if she fought alone.

Therefore, only the MO disk in Shitara Shigekichi's hands and Shitara Shigekichi's life depend on it.

Now Ms.'s lips are the only bargaining chip she can use to negotiate and survive, so she said immediately.

"Yan Shuangying! Let's make a deal! As long as you let me get to a safe area, I will release Shitara Shigekichi!"

"From now on, I will no longer interfere with your affairs with those celebrities, and I will leave Beika Town immediately and never come back. Besides, I have a considerable amount of funds in my hands—"

"You may not know me, but I can introduce myself to you."

"I'm the leader of a bandit gang that's been wanted by the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department for a year. I've been roaming around committing crimes and stealing a large amount of money from banks and casinos. Mr. Brain, the money I can give you is far beyond your imagination!"

As the saying goes, people die for money and birds die for food.

No one will ever complain that they have too much money, only that they have too little money.

Ms. Lips is such a person. Not only does she think that her money is too little, but she is also unwilling to make money through legitimate means. In her opinion, the fastest way to make money is the best, regardless of whether it violates the law.

Even though she loved her illegitimate son and wanted to accumulate wealth for him, her first reaction was to bring him into the bandit group.

Because in this way her illegitimate son can legitimately get a share of the dividends - her illegitimate son's code name is Mr. Acne, and he died in the casino robbery a year ago.

However, Yan Shuangying's reaction was beyond her expectations.

The urban legend of Beika Town simply said this sarcastically.

"It seems that you think your life can be measured only by money."

"It's just pathetic, and stupid."

The man in black approached Ms. Lips and Shitara Shigekichi step by step, as if he was not worried at all that Ms. Lips would shoot and kill Shitara Shigekichi at this moment, resulting in a fight to the death.

Seeing this scene, Shitara Shigekichi's face turned horrified and he spoke loudly.

"Wait a minute, Mr. Yan, don't you need that MO disk anymore? If I die, then..."

"In my opinion, the disk is not that important. There is more than one way to obtain the information."

Yan Shuangying's voice was calm. Not only did he not stop, but he continued to move forward.

He didn't stop until he was only a few steps away from Shitara Shigekichi. However, just when Shitara Shigekichi and Ms. breathed a sigh of relief, Yan Shuangying suddenly raised the pistol in his right hand.

————What's he doing? Could it be that this man is planning to kill the hostages to prevent them from being held hostage?!

Ms. Lips's expression suddenly changed.

She found it hard to imagine the logic behind this urban legend, so she could only point her pistol at the back of Shitara Shigekichi's head, aim at the position, and see if she could jump out of the window to escape.

However, before that, Ms. Lips spoke loudly.

"Yan Shuangying, don't come any closer! Don't you know that as long as I pull the trigger, this person will die?!"

"Maybe, but so what? You're pointing your gun at him, not me, which means your first bullet will hit his head, and my first bullet will hit your head."

Yan Shuangying's eyes became sharper, and even sunglasses could not hide the sharpness.

"You might think about shooting him and then jumping out the window."

"But I'm telling you, you won't have a chance. Even if you jump out the window, your body will be the only one that falls to the ground. How about it? Do you want to give it a try? Let's see who's faster, you or me?"

Chapter 244: Being Kind to the Enemy Is Being Cruel to Yourself (1/5)

————Who is faster, Yan Shuangying or me?

Ms. doesn't even need to think, she can come up with the answer immediately.

There is no doubt that not only is Yan Shuangying faster, but he is also much faster!

If she killed Shitara Shigekichi, Yan Shuangying would have nothing to worry about. She would definitely be killed by Yan Shuangying after losing the hostage. But by the same token, if she used Shitara Shigekichi to threaten Yan Shuangying and wanted to escape, Yan Shuangying would also kill her.

Because, Shitara Shigekichi is worthless in Yan Shuangying's eyes, and there is no way he would release the robbers just to save people!

"……hateful."

Ms.'s lips felt heavier in her heart, she didn't understand.

Why was she, who had the hostages and the upper hand, in such a desperate situation at this moment? She knew that Yan Shuangying was definitely not bluffing.

Since Yan Shuangying appears here, he must be related to the Japanese public security.

The person who just hacked into her laptop and took away a large amount of information was most likely a hacker under the Japanese Public Security Bureau. Even if Yan Shuangying really gave up Shitara Shigekichi's MO disk, the data stolen from her laptop was enough.

Her already ruined face looked even more hideous at this moment, and she spoke loudly.

"Then let's fight to the death! I kill him, and you kill me. Then neither of us will benefit!"

"How about we both take a step back and unload the magazines from our pistols? Then, I'll release Shitara Shigekichi and you'll let me go. Once we're out of the Ryujin Economic Research Institute, we can either kill or escape, depending on our personal abilities! How do you say that?"

A new hope arose in Shitara Shigekichi's heart.

When being held hostage for negotiation, the thing one fears most is encountering a negotiating party who does not care about the life or death of the hostages at all. Now Yan Shuangying is obviously such a negotiating party. How can he not hope that Yan Shuangying will take slightly softer measures?

"It seems that you like to play some inexperienced tricks."

Under Shitara Shigekichi's expectant eyes, the cold urban legend finally gave in.

"Okay, let's give it a try and see if you can escape from here alive."
