Chapter 10 Nine, the trap

Even though the monster thief was powerful, he was scared out of his wits right now.If the other party was a human being, even if you pointed a gun at him, it wouldn't scare a thief like him like this.The problem is that the ancient Kannon carvings from the Kamakura period suddenly started to move. How could he not be surprised? It's not so much surprise, it's better to say it's the fear that surges from the bottom of my heart, like having a terrible nightmare, or meeting a ghost, it's an elusive, bizarre fear. The poor twenty-faced figure, who was always daring, turned pale with fright, staggered back, as if to apologize and beg for mercy, put the candle on the ground, and raised his hands high.

At this time, the terrible thing happened again.The Guanyin statue actually stepped down from the rosette and stood firmly on the floor.While firmly aiming the gun at the thief, one step, two steps, and three steps came towards the thief. "You, you, who are, what, who are you!" Twenty Faces growled in a low voice like a wild beast cornered and cornered. "Me? I'm here to retrieve Hashiba's diamond, as long as you hand that over, I'll spare your life." How terrifying, the Buddha statue actually gave orders and asked for things, and gave orders in a dignified voice.

"I understand, bastard, are you a secret agent of Hashiba's family? You pretended to be a Buddha statue and followed the clues to find my residence." Once he knew that the other party was indeed a human, the strange thief immediately became much more excited.However, the inexplicable fear has not completely disappeared.Because, if it is said that it is a disguise, the Buddha statue in front of me is too big.Judging by the stature of the uninvited guest in front of him, he was only a twelve or thirteen-year-old child at most.Now this guy who looks like a dwarf actually speaks calmly and slowly like an old man, which is really weird, and the indescribable panic makes him not sure what to do next.

"Then, what if I say, I don't intend to hand over the diamond?" The strange thief asked tremblingly, as if trying to draw the other party's attention. "Then you will only have a dead end. This pistol is not the toy gun you use every time." Guanyin Bodhisattva seems to have seen through the old man with twenty faces in disguise.Probably because he overheard the previous conversation between Twenty Faces and his subordinates, that's why he's so sure. "Let you see, this is not a toy!" As soon as the words fell, Guanyin Bodhisattva's right hand suddenly shook, followed by a terrifying sound that made the heart beat faster.The glass window on one side of the room shattered to the ground.Pistols fire live ammunition.

The short Guanyin Bodhisattva glanced at the splashed glass shards, then pointed the pistol at the strange thief, and sneered strangely on that dark Indian-like face. Taking a closer look, the muzzle of the pistol aimed at the strange thief's chest is still emitting a faint blue smoke. Twenty Faces couldn't help but succumb to the courage of this black-faced little thief, feeling fearful in his heart.Such a fearless lunatic, no one can tell what he will do, maybe he will be shot dead on the spot, even if he can escape the bullet by chance, once he makes such a loud noise, it will definitely make the nearby residents suspicious. The consequences could be disastrous.

"I admit defeat, you can take the diamond." The strange thief put down this sentence as if he was determined, walked to the big table in the corner of the room, unscrewed one leg of the table, took out six gems from the hidden drawer in the hollowed out table leg, and put them in the palm of his hand.The rolling diamonds collided with a "crack-crack" sound, and under the illumination of the candle light, it reflected a rainbow-like streamer. "Look, here it is. You can take it and examine it carefully." The short Guanyin Bodhisattva stretched out his left hand, and after receiving the diamond, he let out a hoarse voice like that of an old man, and laughed.

"Hahaha... Admiration, admiration, it seems that although the ability of Twenty Faces is outstanding, after all, he is still very afraid of death." "Well, it's a pity, but I have to take off my armor and surrender." The strange thief bit his lip unwillingly, "Speaking of which, who the hell are you? There is someone who can make me suffer from twenty faces, even myself. Accident. Can you tell me your name so that I can learn more." "Hahaha... It's a great honor to be commended. My name? Let's save that as a surprise after you go to prison. Mr. Police should tell you when the time comes."

Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva spoke triumphantly, with the pistol still aimed at the strange thief, and slowly stepped back towards the door of the room. Now that the lair of the strange thief has been identified and the diamonds have been retrieved, as long as you leave this abandoned house safely and run to the nearby police station, you're done. This person disguised as Guanyin Bodhisattva, readers must have already guessed, is the boy Kobayashi, who fought face to face with the twenty-faced phantom thief to win the beauty.How happy he was in his heart, this credit is unmatched by any adult.

Unexpectedly, just when he was only two or three steps away from leaving the room, there was a sudden burst of strange laughter in the room.Taking a closer look, I saw the twenty-faced man dressed as an old man, who seemed to find it extremely ridiculous, and opened his mouth to laugh out loud. Ah, readers, it is not time to relax.This is no ordinary robber.He pretended to admit defeat and begged for mercy, but in fact he might still have the final trump card in his hand. "Hey, let me ask you, what's so funny?" The young man dressed as Guanyin Bodhisattva stopped in surprise and took a vigilant posture.

"Oh, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I saw you talking like a grown-up. You're so old-fashioned, so I couldn't help laughing." The strange thief finally stopped laughing. "The reason why I say this is because I have finally seen through your identity. After all, there are not many people who have this ability to fight back against me with twenty faces. To be honest, the first person I thought of was Akechi Kogoro. "However, it is impossible to have such a small Akechi Kogoro. You are a child. Speaking of children who are good at Akechi's way, there is no one else. Akechi's boy assistant seems to be called Kobayashi Yoshio, hahaha... I guessed it right ?”

The young Kobayashi, who disguised himself as Guanyin Bodhisattva, was secretly startled by the sharp and quick judgment of the phantom thief.However, if you think about it carefully, now that you have achieved your goal, even if your identity is guessed by the other party, there is nothing to be afraid of. "The name doesn't matter. I am indeed a child. You guessed it right. However, it doesn't seem very honorable for someone as powerful as 'Twenty Faces' to be defeated by a child like me. Hahaha..." Kobayashi was not to be outdone either. "Little ghost, you are so naive... Do you really think that you can defeat my 'Twenty Faces' like this?" "Don't be so stubborn. The Buddha statue you stole so hard actually moved alive, and the diamond you got was taken back. Isn't this considered a loss?" "That's right. I will never admit defeat." "Otherwise, what do you want?" "I think so!" As soon as the words fell, Xiao Lin only felt that the bottom of his feet was empty, and the floor under his feet seemed to disappear in an instant.The body fell down suddenly, and before he realized what happened, the golden stars danced in front of his eyes, his body seemed to be beaten and hit by a terrible force, and there was a burst of severe pain. Ah, how could he have been so negligent and committed such a blunder!It turned out that the floor where he was standing was just set up with a mechanism. The ghost thief's finger pressed a hidden button on the wall when he was not paying attention, and the latch hook under the floor was released, and the dark square hell mouth opened with a "huh". open. The pain was unbearable, and he couldn't even move. Xiao Lin, who could only lie down in the dark basement, heard the smug laughing sound from the distant ground. "Hahaha...Hey, brat, it must be very painful, right? It's so pitiful. But, you just stay inside and reflect on yourself. Think about how powerful your enemy is. Hahaha...want to teach me 'Twenty Faces', You are still too tender. Hahaha..."
