Chapter 57 On Fate
"So, Ryuzawa-kun is here to deposit money too?"
A father and daughter, a first-grade elementary school student, and a junior high school student walked into a bank—a familiar group configuration.
Bai Yexiu smiled and nodded in response:
"Yeah, what a coincidence." What a joke.
He was just a miserable office worker who was walking down the street when Gin inexplicably dragged him over to do a mission.
However, Gin didn't dare to give all the missions to Byakuya, because if he did, it would be easy for the higher-ups to find out, and then Gin would lose his salary.
This time, Gin gave him the task of monitoring and warning Miyano Akemi. Because Gin was afraid that Miyano Akemi would play tricks, he specially asked Byakuya to come and supervise the work at close range.
On his way to supervise the construction, he ran into Conan and his friends again by chance, so he decided to come along with them.
Come to think of it, how many times has he run into Conan and his friends during missions? Why is it so easy for him to encounter them on his missions?
Bai Yexiu glanced at the group of people who had come with him out of the corner of his eye and sighed inwardly.
Whenever Conan is involved in a mission, he has to restrain himself, and having to consider this and that makes him feel incredibly uncomfortable.
Complaining, Bai Yexiu sat on a chair to the side, pretending to wait in line, but actually keeping an eye on Miyano Akemi dressed as a counter lady.
Akemi Miyano looked very nervous, constantly glancing at her watch, as if she was in a hurry.
Bai Yexiu also checked the time on his phone and found that there were still a few minutes before the robbery.
Meanwhile, Conan noticed Miyano Akemi's strange behavior and was about to call Byakuya Osamu over to discuss it when he saw him get up and walk straight toward the strange receptionist.
"Ah, hello," Akemi Miyano noticed someone's arrival and looked up abruptly. "May I ask where you are...?"
"Big sister, I'm here to deposit money." Bai Yexiu handed over the paperwork with a well-behaved expression.
Just as Akemi Miyano lowered her head to organize the paperwork, a soft voice came from above her head: "Ms. Miyano."
The voice was completely different from the one of the boys he had just spoken to, startling Miyano Akemi into looking up abruptly, only to find it was the same boy before. The only difference was that this boy now wore an enigmatic smile.
"Gin wants you to stop playing tricks."
Bai Yexiu's voice was very soft, so soft that only the two of them could hear it.
Upon hearing this, Akemi Miyano was stunned.
These words actually came from the mouth of a seemingly harmless teenager.
Even a child...
Miyano Akemi felt an inexplicable pity for Shirayuki Osamu.
If it were Gin in front of him, she would undoubtedly give him a look of disgust, but the person standing in front of him was a teenager. Even knowing that he was a member of the organization, he couldn't bring himself to feel any aversion towards the child.
This child reminded him of Shiho, who had also become a core researcher in the organization at a young age. However, the difference between them lay in their temperament—
Shiho had been researching drugs for the organization for several years, but she never had any good feelings towards it, nor could she be said to be serious or loyal to it; everything she did was out of necessity. As for this boy, just by listening to his tone and observing his behavior, it was not difficult to tell that he was a young man who had been completely corrupted by the organization.
The formalities were completed quickly, and Bai Yexiu did not linger. He left the counter soon, but Conan, who had been observing for a long time, hurriedly grabbed Bai Yexiu and gave him a look, indicating that he had something to say.
"What do you think is strange about that saleswoman?"
Conan whispered in Bai Yexiu's ear.
Bai Yexiu stroked his chin, pretending to think, and casually offered an excuse: "Hmm...maybe she and her sweetheart have arranged a time to meet."
Is it really?
Conan fell into deep thought after hearing Bai Yexiu's answer.
Bai Yexiu didn't need to participate in the robbery. Gin told him to just watch from a distance and help out if anything unexpected happened.
Bai Yexiu, who had just left the bank, was now watching the bank's movements from the rooftop of a small building opposite the bank.
Akemi Miyano has already begun her operation, and this angle provides a good view of what she and her team are doing.
But as he watched them move, he also spotted a familiar figure—Conan.
This guy is peeking.
Upon seeing this scene, it was as if something had been triggered, and Bai Yexiu's mind was flooded with the entire process and outcome of the event.
"..."
The organization can't even get this money?
Bai Yexiu grasped the key point.
It was Gin who suggested that Miyano Akemi rob the money. If Gin fails and doesn't get the money, he will definitely be warned.
If his superiors ask and find out he was involved in the matter, he doesn't want his boss to send him a sarcastic email accusing him of not handling things properly.
His boss has always been very strict with him.
In this matter, Bai Yexiu doesn't need to change any other key points. He only needs to intercept Miyano Akemi when she hands the key to Conan before she dies. It's just unknown whether this matter will still develop in the predetermined direction as before.
However, Bai Yexiu did not intend to tell Gin directly about not being able to get the money. After all, Gin was so suspicious, and if he suddenly said something like that, Gin would probably become suspicious, and he couldn't explain it clearly anyway.
Even though he is the boss's adopted son, Gin still has the same suspicions. After all, Vermouth, who is also a "connected" person, has been suspected by Gin many times, so it goes without saying that he is suspected as well.
In just a few seconds, Bai Yexiu came up with a complete plan and decided to help Gin, and also help himself.
I just don't know if this matter will develop in the same direction as before, and I won't be able to get that billion.
The most painful thing is having the ability to foresee the future, but being unable to change the outcome of things at all.
If this happens again, Bai Yexiu doesn't know what to do.
Because fate is something that is inherently difficult to predict and change.
Take the tequila case, for example. Even if he changed the key points, tequila would still be doomed.
