Chapter 039 Black Wolf Team (End)
Besides being tiring, getting hit by the ball hurts. By the third set, the court was full of team members.
Fans sat on the sidelines to watch the game, and regardless of the pain in their bodies, they cheered for them excitedly.
After this round, today's visit also came to an end.
Nothing unexpected happened the whole afternoon, and the manager felt relieved.
But who knew that something would happen at the last moment.
The guy from the previous team, the only one Hatori had determined wasn't a volleyball fan, pulled a knife from his backpack. Using his clothes as a cover, he quickly approached Gong You, about to stab him.
Meanwhile, Dong Yexi, who was near Gong You, suddenly moved involuntarily. He quickly rushed between the two men, knelt on one knee, raised his hands, clasped them together, and clamped the blade with his palms!
Everyone present: ...
Hatori was the one who reacted the fastest, and immediately grabbed the man and pinned him to the ground.
The others present finally reacted, and the club security rushed forward to hold down the man instead of Hatori Yui.
Dong Yexi silently put the knife on the ground and slowly stood up.
He knew that [100% Barehanded Catch] was a passive skill, but he didn't know that this skill would also be activated when the murderer's target was not him!
So whenever someone draws a knife in front of him, will he rush forward to catch it?
Gong You was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat. He excitedly held Dong Yexi's hands, tears in his eyes, and said, "Thank you! Thank you so much! If you hadn't saved me, I would have been finished today!"
Hinata Shoyo was shocked but also full of admiration. He looked at Tono Xi with shining eyes: "Amazing! You actually caught the knife! How did you do it?!"
Dong Yexi looked at his sparkling eyes, not knowing how to respond, and could only laugh and say, "It's just luck."
Under the interrogation of Kogoro Mouri, the murderer revealed his motive for murder.
It turns out his brother was one of the stalkers previously arrested. He filmed people, stole their belongings, and then resold them online for exorbitant prices. He stalked not just Gong Yoo but other public figures as well, and he had numerous accomplices, forming a seemingly unrelated industry chain.
After his brother was arrested, he learned the whole story and hated Gong You. He bought the quota for this tour from someone else and wanted to teach Gong You a lesson today.
He said that he did not want to kill anyone, he just wanted Gong You to suffer minor injuries.
But no one believed what he said.
As a professional player, a sprain could lead to retirement, let alone a stab wound? What if Gong You really goes out of business because of this? How will you compensate him?
However, when it comes to reselling personal belongings, Edogawa Conan has something to say: "Those who secretly took private photos of Gong You were not only stalkers, but also staff members within the club."
"What?!" Everyone looked at him in shock.
Conan Edogawa said: "Many of the photos that have been leaked online are taken inside the club. The photographer said that he used a telephoto lens to shoot from a distance, but I saw that some of the scenes were taken from angles that could not be captured from outside."
He pulled up a few photos on his phone and showed them to the manager: "Especially these ones. If you compare them with the wall, you can see that the scene was taken indoors."
The manager looked carefully at the patterns on the wall and exclaimed in surprise, "Really!"
"Ordinary stalkers don't have the ability to get into the club, right?" Edogawa Conan said firmly, "So, these photos must have been taken by someone inside!"
"Then who did it?" the manager said with a frown.
Edogawa Conan smiled slightly: "The photo has already told us who the criminal is."
Everyone: “Huh?”
Edogawa Conan turned to look at the crowd and said confidently, "You're right, right, the uncle in charge of cleaning the venue?"
A group of people turned to look at him.
The cleaning man panicked and stammered, "What are you talking about? I don't understand!"
Edogawa Conan didn't look at him again, but explained to the manager: "You can look at the so-called 'private photos' on the Internet, and you can find that the locations where Gong You was secretly photographed are not fixed. And the only people who can wander around the club without being suspected are the cleaning staff.
"Also, when Hinata saw someone in the restroom today, Higashino-san immediately went to check the window, but didn't see anyone, which suggests they're familiar with the club. And at that time, the cleaners were cleaning the outside area.
"Coincidentally, among the cleaners, this uncle not only meets the height requirement, but also seems to be slightly disdainful of Gong Yoo. As for whether he is the real voyeur, we should be able to find out if we check the cleaning tool room."
The manager immediately sent someone to search the tool room, and sure enough, they found the hidden camera in the cleaning truck.
The evidence was irrefutable, and the uncle had no choice but to plead guilty. The reason for this was that Miya Yu was so popular that he could make money selling private photos. He had also sold photos of Sakusaya Seiomi and Koutarou Kousa. However, those two didn't have as many crazy fans, and after releasing the photos, they were criticized, so he could only target Miya Yu.
After hearing this, Koutarou felt a chill: "Being secretly photographed feels weird... disgusting."
Sakuhaya Seiomi's expression changed drastically, and he muttered to himself, "I need to disinfect, disinfect my entire body..."
Sakusaya Shinta patted his shoulder and comforted him: "You were only patted, not touched."
Hinata Shoyo was more concerned about whether the camera contained any photos of him using the toilet.
Ming An Shuugo looked through all the photos and said, "No. You don't have a single photo."
Hinata Shoyo: ...Why do I feel a little weird?
The club manager will handle the rest of the matter. Ming An Shuugo will escort Higashino and the other fans. He also gave away some merchandise, and asked everyone to keep the story secret for now.
Everyone expressed their understanding and remained silent until the police informed them.
Gong You was hit hard today. He sat on the steps and looked into the distance, exuding a melancholy air.
His teammates stood behind him and looked at each other, not knowing how to comfort him.
Hinata Shoyo thought for a moment, then jumped over to sit next to Gong You, put his arm around his shoulders and advised, "Don't think too much. We know how good you are, and your fans know it too. There's no need to be sad for someone who doesn't like you."
Gong You glanced at him. "I'm not sad," he said. "In this world, even money can't please everyone, let alone people. And there are so many people who hate me, especially the fans of the teams that lost to me. They want to tear me into pieces."
"Then what are you thinking about?" Hinata Shoyo asked puzzledly.
"I was just thinking, since I'm so talented, I might encounter a crisis like this again in the future. How about I go learn from Dong Yexi?" Gong You gestured twice. "The moment he caught the knife, he was so handsome!"
Hinata Shoyo nodded repeatedly, "I think so too! It's really cool!"
Koutarou Koutarou came over and said, "He looks quite frail, but I didn't expect him to have such courage!"
The three of them had an admiration for Higashino Hiroshi that flowed endlessly like a surging river, but Sakuhaya Seiomi, who was standing by, just thought they were being noisy.

On the way back, Higashino Hi sneezed several times in succession. Hatori Yui tilted his head to look at him and asked, "Are you cold? Are you cold? Do you want a coat?"
Dong Yexi shook his head: "I'm not cold, my nose is just itchy. Maybe someone is talking about me."
Hatori Yui thought about the way he caught the knife and couldn't help asking, "How did you do that?"
Dong Yexi smiled awkwardly: "I said it was my body's instinct, do you believe it?"
Hatori Yui was silent for a moment, then said, "No matter what, this method is too dangerous. If you encounter this situation again in the future, it's better to find another way to save people."
"This is not something I can control." Dong Yexi blinked and said mischievously, "My body moves on its own~"
Hatori Yui raised an eyebrow. "Move on your own? In other words, you have no autonomy?"
He thought Dong Yexi was just joking about this unbelievable thing.
After sending Higashino back home, Hatori Yui arrived at his new residence. He had already checked out of the hotel room and had tidied up the new house, adding some daily necessities.
At this moment, his cell phone rang. It was a message from Gin.
Ever since he took on the mission, Gin seemed to know that he was not welcome and changed his contact method to text messages.
The text message said that the fifth of next month is the birthday of the third son of the Higashino family. The Higashino family has invited many guests to a banquet, and two members of the organization will sneak in and wait for an opportunity to act.
Gin will tell him about the Tono family's mission, as this is their agreement. But Gin will not be so stupid as to reveal all the details of the mission to him.
Hatori Yui collapsed on the sofa, pinching his brows.
The people in the organization will obviously take the opportunity to cause trouble. How should he remind his seniors?
\\
After returning home, Dong Yexi found a system message. He clicked it and saw that because he saved Gong You, the system gave him a lottery ticket.
It seems that the system encourages people to be brave and do what is right.
Before going to bed, he received a call from his eldest brother, asking him to go try on clothes tomorrow.
Dong Yexi then remembered that his third brother's birthday was very close.
The next day, he followed the address given by his elder brother and came to a styling design studio, where the glasses butler was already waiting for him.
Dong Yexi learned the housekeeper's name from his eldest brother. He smiled and greeted him: "Di'an, long time no see~"
Fujitsuka Tian bowed slightly: "Second Young Master, good morning."
Dong Yexi got goosebumps all over his body and said, "Don't call me like that outside. It feels weird."
Fujitsuka Tian thought for a moment and said, "Then he's called Master Xi?"
Higashino: ...What difference does it make? Do you really have to say "young master"?
He held his forehead and said, "Forget it, call me whatever you want."
The stylists were very enthusiastic. They pushed out a large number of clothes for Higashino Xi to try on, making him feel like a doll at their mercy.
After choosing the right clothes, the stylist began to try out his hairstyle.
Higashino Xi sat in front of the mirror, chatting with Fujitsuka Tian.
He suddenly asked, "By the way, do you know what the third brother likes?"
"What gift are you thinking of for the Third Young Master?" Fujizuka Tian thought for a moment and said, "The Third Young Master has been quite interested in motorcycles lately and often makes plans with friends to go racing on the track."
Dong Yexi: ...That kind of motorcycle is so expensive, how can I afford it?!
"Does he have any other hobbies?" Dong Yexi asked.
Fujitsuka Tian immediately understood what Higanohashi meant. He pondered for a moment and said, "Third Young Master's hobbies seem to be quite expensive."
Dong Yexi thought to himself: Very good, he really is a rich kid!
"Don't worry, Second Young Master. The Eldest Young Master has already prepared all the gifts, including one for you," Fujitsuka Tian comforted.
Dong Yexi cheered inwardly: Wow! Big brother is so nice! When it’s Big Brother’s birthday in the future, he will definitely pick out a good gift for him!
