The Devilish Assassin Meets The Angelic Detective - Volume 2: Their Paths Cross Again Chapter 445 445: All Set

“Relax. I’m an ally, not a foe. Catseye was the one who sent me here. Something came up that she couldn’t come tonight. So I’m here on her behalf.”

After saying that, the man showed them Catseye’s death card as proof.

“I’m still in doubt. Even the members of the Dark Knight Organization have Catseye’s death card,” Black Shadow didn’t lower his guard. The other Skull Gang members also nodded in agreement.

“Besides, why did you sneak in instead of entering our base using the entrance gate?” Black Shadow added, feeling suspicious towards the guy.

The man erupted into a peal of laughter before answering Black Shadow.

“I did it for two reasons. First, I want to test how strong your security system is in your hideout. Second, to show you that I am worthy to attend this meeting as a representative of my sister Catseye.”

“By the way, I’m Yu, you can call me Brother Yu.” Brother Yu finally introduced himself to James, Black Shadow, and other members of the Skull Gang.

James was amazed by his overbearing self-confidence but it was not bad. He liked him already. But still, he was wondering why Elle couldn’t attend tonight.

“Did something wrong happen to Catseye?” James asked Brother Yu worriedly.

Even Black Shadow had a look of disappointment on his face.

“Not something bad, but it was something good,” Brother Yu said to them meaningfully.

“Anyway, you will hear the good news from my sister Catseye, herself. It’s not my place to tell you about that good news. So, can you please stop aiming those guns at me? Sister Catseye will not let you off if you accidentally shot me here.” Brother Yu said to them jokingly.

The men averted their gaze to their Supremo, waiting for his command. Since they were not yet convinced, Brother Yu spoke up again.

“I know my brother Lu is still in your care. We are excited to see him. We heard that he would be coming back early.”

At the mention of Brother Lu, James was convinced that he was an ally and he came from Catseye’s side.

So James signaled his men to keep their guns. They didn’t need it. The man in front of them was not an enemy.

Black Shadow just heaved a frustrated sigh. He was looking forward to seeing Catseye tonight but in the end, she couldn’t come.

James just shook his head helplessly while watching Black Shadow’s disappointed reaction. If he didn’t know about Marie then he would think that Black Shadow was in love with Catseye too.

He always wanted to see her. He was very fond of Elle. Was it because he idolized Catseye? James knew how obsessed Black Shadow before when it came to competing against Catseye.

Soon, they started planning out their strategies and moves. They divided the tasks. Catseye’s team would also join the mission.

They had two goals in this mission. First- to stop this negotiation. Many countries in the world would be put in danger if ever the international terrorist group would be able to get Bio-weapons from the Dark Knight.

Second- to learn and reveal the identity of the Dark Lord, the head of the Dark Knight Organization. They got an Intel that the Dark Lord would personally attend the negotiation.

The negotiation in the Black Market was about to happen three days from now. Black Shadow would lead one team. His team was assigned to discover the Dark Lord’s identity.

Catseye’s team was assigned to stop the terrorist group from acquiring the Bio-weapons. If they needed to steal the Bio-weapons from them, they would do it.

James wanted to come as well but the Branch Leaders opposed the idea. They said he should stay behind for his safety and security.

They had a hunch that this mission was going to be a bloody one. They couldn’t avoid spilling blood. They just hoped that their brothers and fellow members would be safe.

Black Shadow, Spike, and Sherlock also agreed with the Branch Leaders’ suggestion. They were the ones who convinced James not to join the mission.

But James still refused to listen because he was thinking that even Elle would want to do this mission. He also wanted to make sure that she would be safe if ever she would do this mission with them.

Erick and He promised each other that they would protect Elle no matter what. He would do it for Elle’s sake.

Spike, Sherlock, and Black Shadow thought of one person who could convince James. That person was none other than Elle.

They would ask her help to stop their Supremo from doing reckless and risky things that might put his life in danger.

“I will talk to Catseye tomorrow. Don’t worry too much. I bet she can convince James,” Black Shadow whispered to Spike, reassuring him.

“I can also talk to her since we are working at the same company,” Sherlock butted in.

Black Shadow shot Sherlock a cold glare. Aside from convincing James, he volunteered because Black Shadow wanted to see Catseye and to confirm if she would join the mission.

“Hey, why are you looking at me like that?” Sherlock asked Black Shadow when he noticed his deathly glare.

“Mind your own business, Sherlock. Hmmph. I’m the one who will talk to Catseye, not you.” Black Shadow insisted.

Spike facepalmed because of Black Shadow’s childish behavior. He knew it. Black Shadow had another personal reason why he volunteered to see Catseye.

“Whatever, do what you want. But make sure that Supremo will stay here during our mission.” Spike said to both of them.

Sherlock: “Aye, sir!”

Black Shadow: “Yes, sir!”

Both of them called Spike ‘sir’ just to tease him. Among the three of them, he was the most serious one.

“I suggest you should smile often, Spike, instead of frowning,” Sherlock suddenly blurted out.

“I agree so that Lady Selena will notice how handsome you are,” Black Shadow also commented randomly.

Spike’s expression changed when he heard those two men. He turned to look at them, ready to kill them both.

“Oops! I didn’t say anything!” Sherlock immediately raised his hands, feigning innocence but his eyes were sparkling with humor.

Black Shadow burst out laughing before saying, “Sherlock, let’s run to save our lives!”

After saying that, Black Shadow and Sherlock fled to escape, running away from Spike. They didn’t want to be killed by Spike on the spot.
