Chapter 495 First Encounter with the Bandaged Man

Day and night alternate.

The next day.

Ur ur ur~

On the street, an alarm shattered the morning's tranquility.

Qi Ming, Vermouth, and Shinichi Kudo walked out of the Beika Bank without wearing hoods, carrying bags full of cash.

"No time to explain, get in the car."

Seeing the police car approaching from around the corner, Qi Ming waved and took out his sports car. Looking at the two people staring blankly at him outside the window, Qi Ming said impatiently.

"Get in the car! What are you looking at? Haven't you all seen this feature before?"

"oh oh."

Shinichi Kudo and Vermouth exchanged a strange look before quickly opening the car door and sitting in the back seat.

After all, neither of them really wanted to sit next to Qi Ming.

"Pink car ahead, this is the Tokyo Police Department, pull over immediately! Repeat, pull over immediately!"

"You are suspected of robbing a bank. Pull over immediately, turn off the engine, and put both hands on the steering wheel! This is your final warning!"

Just as Qi Ming pulled the handbrake, the police car behind him caught up, shouting through a loudspeaker.

Qi Ming glanced out the window, then took out a long tube and tossed it to Shinichi Kudo.

Feeling the weight on his legs, Shinichi Kudo's lips twitched as he looked down.

What he had placed on his lap was a rocket launcher.

"Brother Qi Ming, what are you doing?"

"Fight back! Don't let them think we're easy to bully."

"..."

Shinichi Kudo sighed and rubbed his forehead in despair.

Brother, we're playing wanted criminals right now... no, Qi Ming seems to be playing himself.

But please, please tone it down a bit!

I can't keep up with your acting!

"Brother Qi Ming, we're not really robbing a bank right now!"

Shinichi Kudo shouted at Qi Ming in despair.

“We’re acting now, and even though it’s supposed to be a fake act, it doesn’t have to be this exaggerated!”

"……right."

Qi Ming was taken aback; it was a bit of muscle memory involved.

"Okay, hold on tight."

Stopping all this nonsense, Qi Ming retrieved the rocket launcher, pulled the handbrake, and stepped on the accelerator.

boom--

A huge blast of air rang out, and before Vermouth and Shinichi Kudo could even cover their ears, the powerful push made their expressions change and they gripped the handles tightly.

"...Nani?"

Behind them, in a police car, Takagi Wataru, who was acting as a member of the pursuit team, rubbed his eyes in confusion after hearing the blast wave.

What flew away in a flash?

Flying close to the ground, is that a car?

Shinichi Kudo gripped the seat tightly, his heart pounding with the car's speed, while Vermouth's composure completely crumbled at that moment.

I originally thought that breaking 100 km/h in a second was already incredible.

But what is this car?

Breaking 200 in half a second?

"Brother Qi Ming, isn't this a bit too fast?"

After the initial push subsided, Shinichi Kudo didn't even dare to look at the speedometer. With his eyes closed, he stammered, "What speed have I reached?"

"Not fast, steady. Want to listen to some music?"

"No, not anymore."

"If you won't listen, then I'll sing one: 'This is the day we robbed a bank~ This is the day the police chased after us~'"

Qi Ming was just about to reach the climax of his song when a phone call came in.

Without even checking who was calling, he immediately answered the phone.

"Hello, this is Inspector Megure, Mr. Qi Ming..."

"Inspector? What, you think you're so high and mighty that you dare to arrest me? If any of you superintendents came here, I'd shoot you dead!"

After finishing his rant, Qi Ming immediately hung up the phone.

"..."

Vermouth glanced helplessly at Qi Ming's eyes in the rearview mirror and spoke.

Have you forgotten what we're doing right now?

"That makes sense, indeed."

Vermouth now seriously suspects that Qi Ming was a fish in his past life.

Shinichi Kudo had already reminded him, but he had forgotten again.

Shortly after, Inspector Megure called again, telling Qi Ming to drive slowly.

After all, the news will be broadcasting the scene of them escaping and being chased later.

This time, Qi Ming's memory finally transformed from that of a fish into that of a human, and he slowed down to wait for the pursuing police.

With a large number of police cars following behind him, Qi Ming turned left and right on the street. After he had filmed enough footage, the police slowed down and pretended to have been shaken off by Qi Ming.

Having successfully "shaken off" the police, Qi Ming found an open-air cafe and slowly came to a stop.

He had already put the stolen money into his backpack.

As for repayment... it's impossible to repay.

It's been said that it was a real bank robbery; once it's taken, it's his.

"Alright, now let's wait for the arrest warrant to be issued, and then wait for that person to come knocking on our door."

Qi Ming got out of the car, stretched, and said.

The two people in the car clearly didn't have his strong heart; they sat in the car for quite a while before getting off.

Vermouth's face was deathly pale, and her long legs appeared to be trembling slightly upon closer inspection.

Shinichi Kudo, on the other hand, was in a rather unbearable state. He covered his mouth as he got off the bus, spotted a trash can in front of him, and immediately ran over to it, bowing his head and exhaling rainbows.

Qi Ming glanced at the two of them with disdain and cursed.

"Hey you over there, aren't you the Hawaiian God of War? How come you're throwing up like this just from a car ride?"

"And you, a female motorcyclist in a leather jacket who gets carsick? Don't you usually take sharp turns or speed?"

Vermouth didn't speak, and it was only after half a minute that her soul, which had fallen onto the road, finally returned to her body and reactivated her speech.

"I can ride a motorcycle, but I can't go 260 km/h!"

"Tsk, you can't even get past 260 and you still have the nerve to call yourself a female knight? You're a disgrace to female knights."

"What kind of misunderstanding do you have about women who ride motorcycles?!"

……

The three of them sat at an outdoor cafe.

There was a television in the coffee shop, and soon the picture changed, and the three people's faces appeared on the screen.

"The warrant has already been issued."

Shinichi Kudo glanced back at the television, tensed up, and immediately began to survey his surroundings.

Now we're just waiting for the judge to come.

Vermouth also calmed herself down, pretending to be indifferent on the surface, but her eyes kept scanning her surroundings.

"..."

Just as the two were on high alert, Qi Ming, who was looking at the minimap, raised an eyebrow and then turned around.

As far as the eye could see, there was nothing there.

However, as his eyes flickered, the figure of a bandaged man slowly appeared in his vision.

Although only he could see that person.

Is this person the middle one?

Qi Ming looked at the bandaged man, but strangely, the man was just watching from afar and showed no sign of coming over.

Qi Ming focused his attention on the bandaged man's face.

The other person's two exposed eyes were wide open, and they looked somewhat...

Horrified?
