"Let's make a bet on who can catch a naked demon first."
Red Star Hero said to the class leader and me as he emerged from the bushes.
"Why would I make a bet with you?" I asked in response, "What's your wager?"
"If we can't catch a naked demon before you." Red Star Hero said, "We'll help you promote Yin Yang Sanshou in society. On the other hand, if you lose …"
"Wait." I shouted, "So you want the entire Dong Shan Justice Alliance, which is Red Star Hero, Ardent Fire Hero, Subway Civilization Hero, and Within Your Abilities Hero to make a bet with me alone? Don't you think it's unfair? "
"Yeah, even though it's a good thing to catch a naked demon, it's still unfair to Ye Lin."
The Totoro … no, the class leader who was hugging the Totoro also added.
"I never said Ye Lin can only rely on his own strength. Both parties can ask for help from their own teams." Red Star Hero explained, "From this point of view, Ye Lin can seek help from Ai Mi's bodyguard group or the Diary Hero. In fact, it's the team with the greater advantage."
"How are you so sure I can contact the Diary Hero?"
"It's obvious." Red Star Hero spread his hands, "The Diary Hero attacked the four masters of Zhonghai for you and declared that he's on the same side as you … Our bet is this: If you lose, you have to get your sister Ai Mi to disband the Dong Shan Justice Messengers Alliance."
I came to a sudden realization. Ever since Ai Mi set up the website of the Messengers of Justice Alliance on a whim, the Red Star Swordsman and the others had their presence greatly reduced. No wonder they wanted the alliance to disband.
Actually, I don't support Ai Mi continuing with the Alliance of Justice website. Originally, it was created by Ai Mi to compete with Xiao Qin in the "Sister Flirting Plan". Later, it was used to go against Red Star Hero and the others — — it's a losing business, so it's better to shut it down sooner.
After making some calculations in my mind, I happily agreed, "Great! Let's clap our hands and swear, from now on, whoever catches a naked demon first wins! "
My plan was to use the Red Star Swordsman and the others as laborers to catch naked demons. I would use this opportunity to deliberately lose the bet and then have Ai Mi shut down the Messengers of Justice website.
Red Star Hero was a little surprised when I agreed with him. He hesitated.
"Um … we were the ones who proposed the bet, aren't you worried that we'll cheat?"
"How?" I asked. "Did you already know the true identity of the naked demon dwellers?"
"Not really," the Red Star Swordsman lowered his tone, "But for the sake of fairness, and for the peace of Dong Shan City, we shouldn't limit ourselves to catching the naked devil. Since the Car Seat Devil and Kleptomaniac Devil had been captured, the remaining Demonic Devil and Cat Abuser Devil would also be placed in the gambling house! Let's do it this way. Whoever captures these three Devil Cultivators first will be the winner! "
It was exactly what I wanted. The fewer perverts there were in Dong Shan City, the safer it would be for us law-abiding citizens. Also, this is a bet I want to lose on purpose. I can secretly leak information about the cat abuser Sun Yu to the Dong Shan Justice Alliance. That way, Ai Mi's Dong Shan Justice Messengers Alliance can be disbanded sooner.
I also agreed to Red Star Hero's new proposal. It went so smoothly that Red Star Hero couldn't help but wonder if he had fallen into my trap.
"Shu Sha, can you be a witness?" Red Star Hero turned to the class leader and said, "You've always been known for being honest and fair. I heard you still want to be a police officer in the future. Our Dong Shan Justice Alliance is a vigilante force that maintains the city's security, so in some ways, we can be considered half of your profession …"
"Don't try to get close to the class leader." I interrupted, "You did a good job investigating our names, but we don't even know your own identity! You should at least tell us your real name! "
"That won't do." Red Star Hero was unmoved, "All superheroes must abide by the iron rule of not revealing their true identity …"
"Nonsense." I retorted, "Didn't Iron Man and the Fantastic Four just publicly reveal their identities?"
"That, that's a special case …" Red Star Hero stuttered. The class leader asked: "Who are the Fantastic Four?"
Class leader, even if you don't know anything about anime, you should at least watch some popular movies! You've heard of Iron Man because of The Avengers, but you don't have any impression of the less well-known Fantastic Four?
"Anyway … I can't reveal my name." Red Star Hero said solemnly, "I'm guessing Diary Hero is your friend. Doesn't he also carefully hide his true identity?"
I and the Totoro … no, the class leader who was hugging the Totoro looked at each other. We both knew Xiao Qin was the Daily Chivalrous Hero.
"Can you guarantee you won't do anything extreme during the arrest?" The class leader brought up her concern, "I personally don't support these types of comic book vigilantes. Actually, all you have to do is find some clues and report it to the police."
"We have a sense of propriety." Red Star Hero promised, "But in Ai Mi's Justice Messenger Alliance, there are a lot of people who will do anything for the bounty, and there are even conflicts … We will definitely hand over the bad guys to the police."
The class leader nodded, "Okay, I'll be your witness for this bet. I just hope both of you can stop when it's appropriate and hand over everything that needs to be handed over to the police. "
"Then it's a deal." Red Star Hero was about to leave with satisfaction, but he waved his hand before he left and promised, "Before we decide who's the winner, the top ten experts in Zhonghai won't bother you anymore. You can focus all your energy on hunting down the demons."
I thought: Who wants to hunt down demons! I still have time to eat, sleep, and beat Dou Dou!
The class leader's gaze suddenly became sharp and she entered detective mode and questioned: "You're the leader of the Dong Shan Justice Alliance, there's no reason you can influence the decisions of the top ten experts in Zhonghai — — are you actually a student at Zhonghai Civil and Military Academy?"
"I …" Red Star Hero's muscles stiffened. It looks like his last sentence was a slip of the tongue. I'm afraid this guy isn't the smart type.
After I received the class leader's hint, I came to a sudden realization and asked: "On the surface, Diary Hero is on the same side as me. That's something only the top four experts of Zhonghai would know, how did you know?"
In fact, rumors spread like wildfire. In just a few days, the story of Zhong Hai's Top Four being defeated by the Diary Hero had been spun into more than twenty versions. Even an outsider would be able to find out the details if they paid enough attention.
It's just that Red Star Hero was confused by his slip of the tongue and didn't notice the flaws in my words.
"Seven of the top ten experts of Zhonghai have already been defeated, right?" The class leader pursued, "The so-called 'the top ten experts of Zhonghai won't bother Ye Lin anymore' refers to the remaining three people, which are the three heads of Zhonghai, not challenging Ye Lin in the near future … If you dare to make that guarantee, it means you have a close relationship with them, or you might even be one of the three heads of Zhonghai!"
Red Star Hero called out the class leader's name as soon as they met, so the class leader was a bit unhappy that she was secretly investigated. That's why she was so serious about Red Star Hero's true identity.
The class leader's guess gave me a lot of inspiration and I said loudly: "As Red Star Hero, you were defeated by Diary Hero before. Now that you're one of the three heads of Zhonghai, you don't have the confidence to defend against Diary Hero's sneak attack, so you're using this method to make a temporary truce, right?"
The class leader started to sing along with me: "It's fine if you don't admit it. We'll go look up information on the three heads of Zhonghai and we'll immediately find out which one of them is you!"
The class leader and I began to attack Red Star Hero with our words and finally made him kneel.
"Don't … don't expose my true identity!" Red Star Hero clasped his hands together and pleaded pitifully, "It wasn't easy for me to hide my identity for this long, I don't want my parents to know I'm doing this! Otherwise, they'll force me to go to cram school! "
The class leader and I were stunned when we saw the righteous hero suddenly become a victim who couldn't even breathe under the pressure of schoolwork.
"Fine, we won't announce your secret identity to everyone." I took a step back and said, "But you should at least tell us your ranking among the three heads of Zhonghai, right?"
"Third …" Red Star Hero replied like a child who made a mistake. He knew there was no point in hiding it. With the class leader's investigative abilities, she could immediately find out who he was as long as she looked up information on the three heads.
I said in bewilderment: "I heard the three heads are all very powerful! Why do you have so little confidence in yourself? I can't believe you came up with a bet to stall for time … "
"It's not that I don't have the confidence to beat you!" Red Star Hero said stubbornly, "I'm just worried I'll be plotted against by your partner, the Diary Hero! A year ago, I tried to negotiate with him to join the Dong Shan Justice Alliance, but he suddenly beat me up and sent me to the hospital … I don't want to go to the hospital anymore! Also, the reason I made the bet with you wasn't to stall for time, I sincerely want to manage the Dong Shan Justice Alliance and disband your sister's bounty hunter alliance! Compared to the three heads of Zhong Hai, I care more about my identity as Red Star Hero! "
"Then we understand." The class leader blushed with shame when she saw Red Star Hero's agitation, "Since you're one of the three heads of Zhong Hai and can make them temporarily not challenge Ye Lin, then use this time to arrest the three perverted demons that are disrupting the peace of Dong Shan city. As long as you don't do anything serious, we won't reveal your true identity. Do you agree? "
"Then … then it's settled." Red Star Hero could only nod in agreement since we had his weakness in our hands.
After parting ways with Red Star Hero, I sat on the bus and looked up the name of the third strongest person in Zhong Hai. It turned out he was called 'Wan Dong'. It was a very ordinary name and wouldn't leave a deep impression.
In addition, in order to help Red Star Hero's Dong Shan Justice Alliance win the bet, I was thinking about how to send over the cat abuser Sun Yu's information. At the same time, I told Xiao Yin about the most recent information on the naked demon and asked her to search for the identity of the naked demon.
In the end, Xiao Yin gave me a very clear answer.
"Damn, it really is him!"
