Chapter 548 - SHUT YOUR MOUTH (1/2)

Kaito looked at the two people and felt they were ridiculous. No man could wield absolute power and hope to stand. And he was not a god who could hold the fate of the world in his hands. Everything he accomplished was through sheer hard work.

”Do you think you can prove your worth by creating a large explosion?” Kaito asked.

Bonnie laughed. ”No. This is just the beginning. We are celebrating our past and looking forward to a brighter future. We do not have to bow to other people's rule.”

”Our goal is to stand into the limelight and redefine everything. We want people to understand that the meaning of changing the world..” Clyde lifted his glass of red wine and sipped on it like he was a refined man.

On the other end of the com system, Akira whispered. ”Can I talk?”

”You can keep talking,” Kaito said while looking at Bonnie and Clyde, but he was agreeing with Akira. Most assassins had sharp years, so Akira's caution was necessary. However, it did not matter for Bonnie and Clyde.

After years of experimenting with explosives, their hearing was not that good. It was even slightly lower than a normal person. Unlike normal demolition experts, they refused to use the appropriate safety gear because it did not match their cool images.

”Do not patronise us, Kaito. Do you think that by stalling a miracle will happen? At precisely half-past eight, we will have our moment.” Clyde said with obvious smugness.

Bonnie frowned. ”Why did you tell him that?”

She could not believe that Clyde would let out such a secret with so little provocation. She knew that Clyde never felt secure before Kaito, even when their working relationship was good. However, they both needed to keep their eye on the prize.

Kaito looked at the watch on his wrist. It was one minute to eight. There was half an hour before the bomb exploded. He could not help feeling that it was very limited time. Even if he were to torture Bonnie and Clyde, they might be able to hold on for that period.

”They are insecure, and Clyde is desperate to prove that he can be better than you. Try to destabilise their emotions.” Akira said. ”I am going to call the CAB and inform them of the development.”

Kaito looked at the two people before him. It was not difficult to set them off.

”I think he has a compulsion to please me,” Kaito replied to Bonnie with a teasing look at Clyde.

Clyde felt humiliated by the statement because the implication of the sentence was obvious. Kaito was trying to put him at the bottom of his shoe. He was making it seem like he, Clyde, was not a man. What could be more shameful than that?

Clyde banged his hand on the delicate dinner table. ”You shut your mouth!”

Several people looked in their direction due to the disturbance. Kaito did not look at all discomfited by the progress of the conversation. He knew that at the moment, having a calm conversation with Bonnie and Clyde would not stop the bomb.

The more unstable the two people became, the easier it would be to get information from them.

”Clyde, baby, stay calm. Remember our plans…” Bonnie said soothingly after looking at the other diners apologetically. She reached a hand across the table and tried to ground him.

Clyde's mind seemed to clear up for a moment. He looked at Kaito with anger and annoyance. He did not know what about Kaito got on his nerves.
