Chapter 13 12. Strange transaction

"Mr. Detective, how are you? Did you sleep well last night? Hahaha... Hey, why is there a black rope hanging from the window? I understand, it must be the rope ladder you prepared. I admire you, you are really a child with ideas .Unfortunately, the iron railing of that window cannot be dismantled with your strength. Even if you stand there and stare at the window, you can't escape. What a pity." The Phantom Thief laughed at him annoyingly. "Hi, good morning. I have no intention of running away. It's very comfortable here. I like this room very much. I plan to stay a while."

Kobayashi was not to be outdone either.Although his heart was in a state of anxiety, he was afraid that the scene of releasing the carrier pigeon from the window just now would be caught by the strange thief, but judging from the tone of Twenty Faces, he probably didn't notice it at all, so he breathed a sigh of relief. As long as Bee Bo can reach the detective agency safely, he has a chance of winning.No matter how unforgiving Twenty Face's mouth is, it doesn't matter if he deliberately provokes him.Because he knows that the final victory belongs to him. "It's very comfortable to live in? Hahaha... I admire you more and more. No wonder you claim to be a wise right-hand man. You are really big-hearted and courageous. However, Xiaolin, there is one thing you still need to worry about , you should be hungry already, aren’t you afraid of starving to death?”

What stupid thing did you say?After receiving the report from Beep, the police should send a large number of policemen to rush over right now. You don't know this yet.Kobayashi didn't say a word, but secretly laughed at the strange thief in his heart. "Hahaha... You look a little listless, let me tell you some good news. I will let you have a delicious breakfast, but you will have to pay a price. No, no, no, what I want is not money. I The so-called breakfast price is your pistol. As long as you give me that gun obediently, I will order the chef to bring you breakfast immediately."

Although the Kaitou had a serious tone, he was still afraid of pistols.It's a good thing he came up with the idea of ​​using that as a price in exchange for breakfast. Xiao Lin was convinced that he would be rescued, so it was nothing to suffer from hunger for a while, but if he took it too seriously and made the other party suspicious, that would be bad.Besides, the pistol was useless anyway. "Although I'm reluctant, I have no choice but to agree to it. In fact, my stomach is about to be flattened by hunger." He deliberately answered in a reluctant tone. The strange thief didn't expect that he was acting, and thought that his scheme had succeeded, so he was very proud.

"Hehehe... It seems that even a great young detective is no match for hunger. Very good, very good, I will send breakfast right now." As he spoke, he closed the trap's lid, and his face disappeared into the hole.Soon, the voice of the strange thief ordering the chef came faintly from the ceiling. Breakfast was prepared for a long time, and twenty minutes had passed by the time the twenty-faced face opened the lid again and peeked in. "Come on, here comes a hot breakfast. But first you must give me the money for the meal. Quickly, put the pistol in this basket." The small basket hanging from the rope was dangling down.Junior Kobayashi obeyed, put the pistol into the basket, and the basket was immediately pulled up to the ceiling. Then, when the basket was lowered again, there were three steaming rice balls, ham, raw eggs, and teapot.As far as captives are concerned, it is quite a luxurious meal.

"Okay, you can enjoy it slowly. As long as you are willing to pay the price, it is not a problem if you want to eat delicious food. As for lunch, this time I want you to exchange it with diamonds. It was a waste of your hard work to get it. I sympathize with you, but every time You have to exchange it with a diamond every time. Even if you are reluctant to part with it, you can’t fill your stomach with them. In other words, I want you to return all those diamonds. One, another, hahaha... As a restaurant owner, Seems like fun too." It seems that twenty sides are quite happy with this strange transaction.However, can he really get the diamond back as he wishes?Or I'm afraid that before that, I have already been reduced to a prisoner.
