Chapter 915: Robbery at Night

Chapter 915: Robbery at Night

The referee came to the center of the field, pulled Kyogoku Makoto's hand high, and shouted excitedly:

"Congratulations, the champion of this Karate Championship has been decided!"

"That is···"

"Contestant Kyogoku Makoto!"

Next came the award ceremony. Chen Zhonghan personally went on stage and handed the trophy and championship belt to Kyogoku Makoto.

Chen Zhonghan took Kyogoku Makoto's hand and said with a smile: "Young man, you are so strong! How about being my bodyguard?"

If I could recruit this young man under my command, wouldn't I be able to watch thrilling karate duels every day?

However... Chen Zhonghan looked at Kyogoku Makoto who was only slightly injured, and then at Jalmartin who was lying on the ground and almost beaten into a pig's head, and thought to himself that it might not be easy to find a suitable opponent for Kyogoku Makoto.

Only Jalmartin has the strength to fight. Should we take him in as well?

Chen Zhonghan was obviously overthinking it. Kyogoku Makoto had never considered the idea of ​​being a bodyguard for others.

"I'm sorry, I came to participate in the competition just to find a strong opponent to compete with."

Kyogoku Makoto declined Chen Zhonghan's invitation, and then came to the audience excitedly with the championship belt.

"Sonoko, I have done my best and won the championship!" Kyogoku Makoto said seriously as he stood in front of Suzuki Sonoko's wheelchair.

Suzuki Sonoko raised her head and smiled: "I knew it long ago that Zhen would win!"

Kyogoku Makoto nodded, looked down at the belt and handed it over: "This, for you."

"Eh?" Suzuki Sonoko was stunned. She pointed at the belt in surprise, then pointed at herself, "This, give it to me?"

Kyogoku Makoto nodded: "I think you will like this gem."

Suzuki Sonoko exclaimed, not quite understanding what Kyogoku Makoto was thinking, but she was still very happy to receive a gift from Kyogoku Makoto and took the belt with a smile.

At this moment, Miyano Shiho looked around and whispered, "Shall we leave here first?"

Only then did they realize that because Kyogoku had really arrived, all the spectators around were staring at them.

It’s okay for men, most of them look at him with admiration; but it’s different for women, especially the rich ladies wearing branded clothes, who kept swallowing their saliva as they looked at Kyogoku Makoto’s muscles, and their eyes looked as if they wanted to swallow him up in one bite.

Although Kyogoku Makoto didn't understand why they were looking at him like that, he still felt very uncomfortable.

Suzuki Sonoko's expression changed slightly, and she quickly said, "Hurry up, hurry up!"

She was worried that if she stayed any longer, those rich ladies would pounce on her like hungry wolves.

So, under the reluctant gazes of those rich ladies, everyone fled from the scene.

In the audience room on the high platform, Liu Liang was looking at the championship belt in Suzuki Sonoko's arms. To be more precise, he was looking at the Blue Fist.

Sparks of anger flashed in his eyes and his hands were clenched into fists.

"In that case, don't blame me for being cruel..."

···

Yuya found some friends in a restaurant.

As soon as he came in, he said to Kyogoku Makoto, "Congratulations, Mr. Kyogoku, for winning the championship."

Kyogoku smiled and said, "Thank you!"

Everyone held a small celebration banquet for Kyogoku Makoto, and when they came out of the restaurant, it was almost completely dark.

Kyogoku Makoto pushed Suzuki Sonoko forward, while the latter held the championship belt in her hands lovingly. She took several photos and sent them to her family and also posted them on her blog.

Youye was a little absent-minded, taking out his cell phone to look at it from time to time.

Why has there been no news from Li Xi? Did Chen Zhonghan not believe him and not send the police?

Or was there an accident?

Just as the few people were passing through a small alley, a dozen sturdy men suddenly jumped out from it, each of them with their faces covered, holding weapons such as daggers, wooden sticks, and steel pipes in their hands, and surrounded everyone in the middle aggressively.

"Hey, hey, hey? What's going on?" Suzuki Sonoko was startled and subconsciously hugged the belt tightly in her arms.

Youya took a step forward, glanced around, and asked in a deep voice: "Who are you?"

The sturdy man holding the dagger said coldly: "Hand over the belt!"

"Belt?" Yuya was stunned, he looked back at the belt in Suzuki Sonoko's arms, his gaze lingered on the Fist of Blue Sapphire for a moment - could it be that Leon's purpose of getting the Fist of Blue Sapphire through the competition failed, so he planned to rob it directly?

Hearing that these people wanted to take her belt, Suzuki Sonoko subconsciously resisted: "No, I don't want it!"

This was a prize that Ah Zhen had finally won the competition and was given to him specially. How could he give it to these people of unknown origin?

Kyogoku Makoto's face was icy cold. He blocked Suzuki Sonoko from another direction and said in a deep voice, "Ms. Xiaolan, Sonoko is now in your hands!"

Mao Lilan was stunned for a moment, then nodded vigorously: "Okay!"

Seeing that he couldn't just "take" the belt, the leading sturdy man was too lazy to talk any more and shouted in a low voice: "Give it to me!"

He rushed up with his men.

Half a minute later.

Yuya looked at the robbers lying on the ground, tugged at their collars, fanned them with his hands, and said with disdain, "No, I thought you were very capable, but this is all?"

Just then, several police cars drove over without paying any attention.

Several policemen got out of the car and ran over quickly.

The leading police officer looked at Youye and the others, then looked at the dozen or so strong men lying on the ground groaning and rolling, and felt a little confused.

They had just received a report of a robbery here, with a dozen burly men surrounding and robbing a few young foreign tourists, so they hurried over.

What did I see when I got here? The young people who were robbed were fine, and all the robbers were knocked down?

Shaking his head, the leading police officer asked Youya in English: "We just received a call that a robbery has occurred here. Are you okay?"

You also shook his head: "We are fine, but the public security here is a bit poor? So many robbers suddenly appeared, isn't it too open and aboveboard?"

"Luckily they encountered us, if it was other tourists, they might have been robbed."

Fortunately... The police officer's mouth twitched slightly. Is this good or bad? However, this is indeed their problem. They let tourists encounter such a thing.

He pretended to cough, and then said: "I'm glad you're okay, but I still need you to go to the police station to make a statement..."

Youye looked back at his friends. No one had any special expression on their faces - he was just a robber. They had seen many different kinds of corpses.

Everyone looked at Youya, waiting for him to make a decision.

Youye thought for a moment and said, "How about this, I'll go with you to take the statement, and let the others go back. The girls might be scared."

"Also, a robbery just happened. I'm a little worried about the safety of my companions. I need a friend like you to escort them back."

Yuya pointed at Kyogoku Makoto, who nodded slightly to indicate that he could take care of it.

The police officer looked at Kyogoku Makoto and immediately showed a surprised expression: "This... could it be Mr. Kyogoku who won the championship today?"

"That's fine. To express my apology, I will send two colleagues to take them back. Don't worry."

So, Youya took a police car to take a statement, and the rest of the people returned to the hotel accompanied by two policemen.

police station.

Youye was already very familiar with taking notes and finished it quickly.

While signing, a police officer came in and whispered something in the officer's ear.

The police officer nodded, looked at Youya and said, "The identities of those people have been investigated. They are hooligans roaming around the area. Recently, because of the karate championship, there are many tourists. They specifically target some weak-looking guests.

It seems that he had a conflict with two of your companions yesterday, and when he saw the sapphire on the championship belt, he had evil intentions, so he found a few accomplices to rob it. "

"I didn't expect..." The police officer spread his hands. These people were really unlucky. They actually tried to rob a karate champion.

Isn't this like holding a lantern in the toilet to look for shit?

"Thug?" Youye was stunned. Wasn't he the one sent by Leon?

No, Youye murmured, although it was at night, robbery in the street was too blatant, Leon would definitely not use his own people, it would be troublesome if they were caught, finding a few petty thugs who were good at stealing and robbing was a very good idea.

As for why he used such a brainless method... maybe he just wanted to give it a try?

I feel that no matter how powerful Kyogoku Makoto is, he may not be able to protect so many people around him when facing the siege of more than a dozen people who want to take advantage of the chaos to snatch the belt.

If he succeeds, that would be the best. If he fails, that doesn't matter since it can't be traced back to him anyway.

But he didn't expect that among these people, in addition to Kyogoku Makoto, Yuya and Mao Li Ran were also karate masters.

Not to mention a dozen people, Yuya and Kyogoku Makoto had knocked down dozens of people together.

Yuya said goodbye to the officer and left the police station.

As soon as he arrived downstairs of the hotel, Youya received a message from Miyano Shiho.

He opened it and took a look, and his pupils shrank instantly——

The information contained the latest analysis of the cruise ship that had deviated from its route, which showed that the end of the cruise ship's route was the Sands Hotel! And it was almost there!

Because of the robbery, Youya temporarily forgot about the cruise ship.

What was going on? What on earth was that guy Lishi doing? Was he really going to watch the cruise ship crash into the city? Was he crazy?

Without time to think, Yuya quickly called Miyano Shiho: "Hello, are you in the hotel?"

Miyano Shiho replied: "Xiaolan and I were watching the fountain show at the open-air theater in front of the hotel. I went to the bathroom halfway through and wanted to check on the cruise ship. As a result... Xiaolan's phone was unreachable, and I was about to go back to find her!"

Yuya keenly noticed that Miyano Shiho only mentioned Mao Lilan, "What about Sonoko and Kyogoku-san?"

"Sonoko was injured and frightened by the robbers, so Mr. Kyogoku took her back to the hotel to rest. They should still be in the hotel."

"I understand. You go find Xiaolan and I'll call Sonoko and the others."

"it is good."

Coastside.

Tourists were watching the fountain show when suddenly someone spotted a huge black shadow on the sea in the distance. As the shadow got closer, they were surprised to find that it was actually a cruise ship.

Just when they thought it was a special performance tonight, the cruise ship crashed through the embankment with a bang and headed straight into the bay.

A large amount of sea water was pushed aside by the cruise ship and rushed onto the road.

The tourists then realized something was wrong and began to flee in panic.

For a moment, the roads were full of fleeing tourists.

The hotel also received news that the cruise ship had entered the bay and was heading towards the Marina Bay Sands Hotel, and immediately notified everyone to leave and evacuate.

At the same time, Miyano Shiho returned to the place where she was watching the performance and found Mouri Ran. Before the two had time to talk, they heard the evacuation broadcast.

Suzuki Sonoko doesn't have to worry because Kyogoku Makoto is with her. Yuya is also downstairs in the hotel and will probably follow the crowd to evacuate.

But...what about Kogoro Mori?

Mao Lilan anxiously called her old father.

She covered one ear and barely heard her father's drunken voice: "Dad, where are you?"

"Where is it? I don't know!" Maori Kogoro replied with a big tongue, "But I can see a nice big ship here! Is it a show?"

Mao Lilan was shocked and looked up at the sky garden on the top of the hotel: "Dad, you are not on the top floor of the hotel?!"

However, there was a sudden silence on the other end of the line.

"Hello, Dad? Hello?" Mao Lilan hung up the phone anxiously and said to Miyano Shiho, "Mio, you go to the shelter first. I want to go back to the hotel to find my dad! He seems drunk."

Miyano Shiho immediately said, "I'll go with you. Yuya is also in the hotel. Let's go meet him."

Mao Lilan nodded, and the two ran towards the hotel.

···

In the hotel, Kyogoku Makoto knocked on Suzuki Sonoko's door.

"Yuanzi, something seems to have happened outside. We'd better leave the hotel first."

Just as Suzuki Sonoko was about to say something, the phone in the room rang.

Suzuki Sonoko walked over and picked up the call. After listening for a while, she said, "I understand."

Kyogoku Makoto quickly asked, "Who is it?"

Suzuki Sonoko replied, "It was Officer Rishi. He said that if I left the room, I might be targeted by those people again. He asked me to stay in the room and not run around. He would send someone to protect me."

Kyogoku was stunned for a moment: "Being targeted?"

Suzuki Sonoko nodded: "It seems so. The criminals who just robbed us are the ones who had a conflict with us in the restaurant yesterday."

Kyogoku Shinya finally remembered and realized that today's robbery was not an accidental act but a deliberate revenge?

Kyogoku Makoto nodded and said, "I understand. I'll stay outside the door. Call me if anything happens."

Suzuki Sonoko advised: "You can stay in the room."

Kyogoku Makoto hesitated: "But if I stay inside, I won't be able to notice someone coming over immediately..."

Suzuki Sonoko sighed, Kyogoku Makoto was sometimes too serious.

If it were Yuya and Miyano Shiho, let alone sharing a room, they would want to... uh...

Suzuki Sonoko covered her face, wondering what she was thinking about, and shook her head vigorously. When she came to her senses, Kyogoku Makoto had already left the room.
