Chapter 129 Again, Appepp
Bai Yexiu decided to sneak into the Moriya mansion that very night to eliminate any future troubles, but Moriya Teiji disappeared after the tea party, so Bai Yexiu had no choice but to leave disappointed.
……
Bai Yexiu hadn't forgotten his agreement with the "candy distributor," so at exactly 10 p.m., he changed into a chained vest, brought the money, and waited at the transaction location.
Two minutes later, a car pulled up nearby, and a young man and a middle-aged man got out. The middle-aged man was wearing a mask and a hat, only his eyes were visible, while the young man had dyed blond hair and was also wearing a mask, revealing only a pair of lewd eyes.
The middle-aged man looked Bai Yexiu up and down and said, "You must be the 'Executor' of Babylon, right? I thought you were about my age, but I didn't expect you to be a young man."
Another blond-haired man took a shopping bag from the car; inside the bag was a shoebox. He walked up to Bai Yeshu and opened the shoebox to show it off—
Sure enough, there were pills and a bunch of suspicious capsules, all wrapped together with tape.
"This is all the stock. Pay up." The blond-haired man's greedy eyes were fixed on the leather suitcase Bai Yexiu was carrying, accompanied by the sound of him swallowing.
"Kid, you're the first big customer to buy so much at once. I won't ask you why you're buying so much." The middle-aged man smiled slyly and took out his phone. "Let's exchange contact information, and I'll notify you first when we have stock."
After exchanging contact information and exchanging money for goods, the middle-aged man and the blond-haired man seemed quite pleased. They turned around to get into the car, but Bai Yexiu wouldn't give them that chance.
While they were facing away from each other, Bai Yexiu pulled out a baton hidden in his pocket and struck the blond-haired man on the back of the head, just like when Gin knocked out Shinichi Kudo.
The blond-haired man let out a scream, and was then kicked away by Bai Yexiu, falling heavily to the ground in front of the car.
Thanks to the fact that the two chose a secluded place for their transaction, Bai Yexiu didn't have to worry about making too much noise.
The middle-aged man whirled around, his eyes instantly turning fierce, and pulled a gun from his pocket: "You brat! Trying to double-cross me?!"
However, just as the middle-aged man drew his gun, Bai Yexiu's baton struck his wrist heavily.
The middle-aged man also let out a scream. He released the leather suitcase containing money from his hand, covered his other right hand which looked like it was broken, and dropped the gun to the ground.
Before the middle-aged man could react in shock, Bai Yexiu slammed the shopping bag, which was smothered with drugs, into his face. The man cried out in pain again, fell to the ground, and blood gushed from his nose like a waterfall, smearing his mouth.
Bai Yexiu didn't move an inch throughout the entire beating, yet he still managed to knock down two people.
Just to be on the safe side, Bai Yexiu injected the two people with anesthetic, tied them up, dragged them into the car, and even disguised them as two people sleeping in the car covered with clothes.
Bai Yexiu skillfully started the car for the two of them—Ricard had taught him how to drive before in England.
On the way, when they came to an intersection, Bai Yexiu saw Conan's figure not far away, and unfortunately, there were police checking for drunk driving at that intersection.
Bai Yexiu turned around to check that the two people in the back seat showed no signs of waking up, then looked at the policeman in front who was waving at him to stop, and clicked his tongue impatiently.
Just then, Conan stepped out of the phone booth and turned his head to see a traffic policeman stopping a white sedan. When the window rolled down, a very familiar profile made Conan's pupils dilate instantly.
It's that organization member I bumped into at the Izu hotel last time!!
(Note: Conan overheard Byakuya Osamu talking to Gin while wearing a chained vest in Izu, and he was mistaken for a member of the organization.)
Before the two police officers could speak, Bai Yexiu, in his haste, snatched the breathalyzer from their hands, blew into it, and returned it. The two officers checked the reading on the device; it wasn't above the legal limit. Before they could say anything, the car sped away, leaving the two officers bewildered in the wind.
Conan didn't hesitate. He immediately chased after the car, removing a spare tracker from his glasses as he ran. He then took out a piece of chewing gum and prepared to carry out his planned operation.
However, Bai Yexiu didn't give him that chance at all, and with a drift at a corner, he merged into the night traffic.
Damn it! He got away!
Conan stopped, panting, and quietly clenched his fist.
……
The organization is located at an abandoned base.
Bai Yexiu tied the two unconscious men to pillars, tore off his sullen disguise, stretched, and then suddenly slapped the blond-haired man's face several times.
The blond-haired man was awakened by the pain. He groggily opened his eyes and saw the boy twirling a baton in his palm. He looked down incredulously at his bound body and the middle-aged man beside him, and then cried out in panic, "Who are you?! You...!"
Because the blond guy was being too noisy, Bai Yexiu put the end of the baton into his mouth to stop him from shouting any further.
"Shh." Bai Yexiu leaned closer and made a shushing gesture. "You should know who I am."
Huang Mao glanced at Bai Yexiu's clothes and then at the familiar shopping bag at his feet. He immediately understood what was going on and made a "uh-uh" sound in fear, his eyes full of pleading.
At this moment, the middle-aged man next to him slowly woke up. After seeing the current situation, unlike the blond-haired man, the middle-aged man kept his mouth tightly shut, looking like he would rather die than submit.
Bai Yexiu took out the baton that had been used to gag the blond-haired man and wiped the saliva off the middle-aged man's suit. Even with such humiliation, the middle-aged man remained unmoved.
The blond-haired man, panting heavily in terror, began to beg for mercy with a mournful face: "I was wrong, I'll tell you whatever you want to know, I'm just a lackey, please let me go, please..."
"You traitor...!" The middle-aged man angrily berated the blond-haired man, and then Bai Yexiu shoved the end of his baton into the man's mouth, silencing him.
"Shut up." Bai Yexiu glared at the middle-aged man, then spoke softly to the blond-haired man, "What do you know about those goods? Tell me everything, and I promise to spare your life."
Huang Mao nodded with lingering fear and said, "I was just following orders. I was brought here to protect Nishimura. Nishimura asked me to get the goods from a man."
"Is he Nishimura?" Bai Yexiu pointed at the middle-aged man.
The blond-haired man nodded: "Yes, that's Nishimura, I don't know his full name. I also know that the man who gave me the goods has a lot of goods in his possession. I overheard him on the phone last time, and he mentioned a 'Mr. Nozawa' and an Englishman named Apep."
Upon hearing the name "Appepp," Bai Yexiu immediately frowned.
It's Appepp again?
"What was the conversation about on the phone?" Bai Yexiu asked coldly.
"I didn't hear the whole thing," the blond-haired man said cautiously. "It was something about picking up goods, suppliers, and then I don't know anything else. I said everything I was supposed to say..."
"Ugh!" The man named Nishimura, who had just heard the blond-haired man recount all the information without reservation, was furious and tried to make a sound, and began to struggle.
Bai Yexiu glanced coldly at Nishimura, then pressed the baton further into his mouth, causing Nishimura to roll his eyes.
"Can you let me go now? I promise I won't tell anyone about what happened today. I promise I'll turn over a new leaf!" The blond-haired man ignored Nishimura's angry gaze and looked pitifully at Bai Yexiu.
“I promise to let you go, but you will not remember anything that happened during this time.” Before he could say anything, Bai Yexiu took out an unidentified syringe with his other free hand and stabbed it into the blond man’s neck.
The blond guy was stunned.
This potion is exclusively produced by Pei Nuo, and it can make a person forget everything that happened within the last two weeks—meaning all their memories will regress to two weeks ago. This potion has been tested on numerous test subjects, and so far there have been no cases of failure.
“Next,” Bai Yexiu pulled the baton out of Nishimura’s mouth, wiped it on Nishimura’s sleeve with a look of disgust, and then used his other hand to cut the ropes binding him with a scalpel.
Nishimura was somewhat taken aback, but remained highly vigilant and defiant: "What exactly do you want?"
"How about that?" Bai Yexiu sneered, suddenly kicking Nishimura to the ground and raising the baton in his hand...
