Chapter 119

"Achoo!"

Downstairs at the Beika Museum, Lupin III sneezed.

"Alright, I'm off. Let's steal the ruby and get out of this cold place quickly."

Jigen Daisuke nodded, "Be careful, there are a lot of police today, and Nakamori Ginzo is here too. Luckily, that Onmyoji doesn't know where he went."

"I know! Nakamori is indeed a bit hard to deal with, as for that Onmyoji... he's not in the jewelry exhibition hall right now, the others can't stop me."

Lupin III chuckled and got out of the car.

Then, avoiding the police line, he used a grappling hook to enter the third floor.

In the third-floor corridor, countless police officers were guarding the area.

Seeing Lupin, they all shouted: "Lupin III has appeared!"

They had received the portrait brought by Nakamori Ginzo, so they wouldn't mistake him again.

Lupin scratched his head like a monkey and turned to run toward the fourth floor.

The police all shouted: "Lupin III is running to the fourth floor!"

Inside the jewelry exhibition hall, Inspector Nakamori held his walkie-talkie, listening to the reports from the officers, and kept giving orders:

"Team One, Team Two, keep a close eye on Lupin III, don't lose him!"

"Team Three, seal off the building's entrances and exits immediately. No one is allowed to leave. Without my orders, no matter what happens, do not leave your posts. Reply if you receive this!"

"Team Three received!" A voice came from the walkie-talkie, and then there was no further response.

Inspector Nakamori's heart tightened, and he immediately asked: "Team One, Team Two, please answer if you hear me! Please answer!"

A few seconds later, a lazy voice came from the walkie-talkie.

"Sorry, sorry, you guys have too many people, so I had to let them sleep for a while."

"What?! Damn it!"

Inspector Nakamori roared, looked at the police in the jewelry exhibition hall, and yelled:

"Split half the men immediately and go chase Lupin III! Also, go get gas masks, that guy might have released anesthetic gas in the building!"

"Yes!" In the exhibition hall, the police saluted together, and then half of them ran out.

Beside Inspector Nakamori, Nakamori Ginzo frowned and said: "Lupin III has appeared, I'll go out and take a look too."

Nakamori Ginzo walked out of the exhibition hall.

About half a minute later, Lupin came running into the exhibition hall.

He took an iron chain, locked the door of the exhibition hall, and then waved to Inspector Nakamori and the others: "Hi! Good morning, officers, thanks for your hard work!"

As he spoke, he threw out an anesthetic bomb and put on a gas mask.

Inspector Nakamori was stunned for a moment, then roared, "You bastard, catch him!"

Unfortunately, without gas masks, under the effect of the high-efficiency anesthetic bomb, they all collapsed to the ground before they could even rush to Lupin.

Lupin chuckled, walked slowly to the display stand, and grinned at the ruby in the bulletproof glass case.

"What a treasure, this thing is mine!"

"Is that so? Lupin III, you're thinking too highly of yourself."

A figure fell from the air, landing right on the glass of the display stand.

With the Gate of Space in hand, how could anyone stop Akaso Kaze?

Looking at the police lying on the ground, Akaso Kaze curled his lip.

Is the police's combat power really this weak?

They were taken down so quickly?

If the gem had been left to them for safekeeping, it would have been gone without a trace long ago.

"Heh, Onmyoji, you're too late."

Lupin III reached out his hand, and before anyone knew it, the ruby was already in his hand.

"Heh, worthy of being an international thief."

Akaso Kaze smiled slightly.

Hand of Will.

Whoosh.

Lupin III was stunned.

The ruby in his hand was gone. He looked up and saw it was already in Akaso Kaze's hand.

Lupin III was truly shocked this time.

Being able to snatch the gem from his hand so easily is definitely not something an ordinary person could do.

"It seems, Onmyoji, you are truly amazing!"

Akaso Kaze tossed the ruby and smiled faintly.

"Lupin, my things aren't easy to take. Do you know why Kaitou Kid didn't come today?"

"Hmm? Why?"

"He's already overwhelmed. You're next."

"How does the Onmyoji plan to deal with me?"

Lupin III spoke while secretly pulling out a pistol.

"Why don't you just take a nap for a while."

He suddenly fired, shooting two anesthetic bullets.

But Akaso Kaze didn't even move.

Lupin III's eyes widened.

At that moment, a square black hole suddenly appeared at the muzzle of the gun.

Then, the two bullets disappeared into the black hole.

This, this is too unscientific.

Akaso Kaze curled his lips and waved his hand.

The gun in Lupin III's hand flew away immediately.

Then, invisible magic threads wrapped around his limbs, tying him up.

Lupin III crashed to the ground, looking bewildered.

What's going on? How did his pistol fly away?

And what is he tied up with now?

"What, what exactly did you do to me?"

Lupin III wriggled his body like a maggot.

Akaso Kaze couldn't be bothered to pay attention to him.

He looked at the tied-up Lupin, picked up the walkie-talkie on the ground, and said: "Lupin III has been captured by me. Please have the police come up and take him away."

Lupin chuckled: "Damn, I'm going to be laughed at by them again."

He suddenly shouted loudly: "Jigen Daisuke, Goemon, come save me!"

Downstairs, in a car by the street, the two people listening with a bug couldn't help but smile bitterly.

"Hmm, what a troublesome guy." Ishikawa Goemon lowered his head.

"No choice, let's go save that guy." Jigen Daisuke got out of the car.

Ishikawa Goemon also got out of the car and looked up at the museum a dozen meters away.

His body lunged forward, and in a few seconds, he ran downstairs, stepped on the wall, jumped twice, and landed directly on the window ledge of the third-floor jewelry exhibition hall.

Inside the exhibition hall, Akaso Kaze heard the sound and turned to look out the window.

A person in samurai attire stood on the window ledge, drawing a sword from his waist.

Clang, clang, a few slashes.

The thick bulletproof glass shattered instantly.

The samurai jumped in, assumed a horse stance, lowered his head, slowly sheathed his sword, and whispered: "I've cut through some more boring things."

Seeing this scene, Akaso Kaze couldn't help but twitch his mouth.
