Chapter 523 My identity is very likely to be exposed

Around 11:30 a.m. on the second day in Japan.

While Bertrand was having brunch, Asti, who had been summoned by a text message, was already waiting in the living room.

Asti: You use it and then throw it away, only to pick it up again when you need it, right?

After finishing brunch and sitting down on the sofa, Bertrand let out a burp, then took out a card and handed it to Asti, smiling innocently, "Thank you for your help, Asti~"

After staring at the seemingly glowing card for two seconds, Asti silently reached out and took it, then took out a pen and wrote on the card in front of Gin and Vermouth.

As his pen left the card, it emitted a faint glow, and the words he had written on it, as well as the golden patterns, gradually faded away and eventually disappeared.

However, Karasuma Renya, who was observing through the monitor, felt that the dissipating patterns had merged into Asti's body.

Has the curse taken effect?

Thanks to Asti's magical disguise, Gin and Vermouth did not see the changes that occurred to the cards.

Watching Asti write something so seriously on it, I felt a sense of skepticism.

Can a card really be used to contact people?

A few seconds later, Asti spoke up, "The other party replied that they will definitely arrive at the agreed location by noon tomorrow."

Vermouth: !? You really can?

Gin: ...?

"Hmm~ Let's go have some fun today!" Bertrand stretched, then stood up, grabbed Asti, and pulled her outside, while also covering up the disappearing card.

Stepping out of the safe house, Bertrand and Asti exchanged a glance and shrugged in unison.

How could a curse on oneself possibly have any effect on oneself?

"It's a bit boring, let's see if we can burn some emotional points along the way." Bertrand skipped away.

Asti followed, asking, "Whose are we going to rob?"

"Let's see who I run into~" Bertrand muttered to himself.

Then, they encountered Ai Haibara.

Bertrand's eyes lit up, and a malicious smile involuntarily appeared on his face.

He directly blocked her path with Asti.

Ai Haibara, who had already vaguely sensed the presence of organized personnel, saw Bertrand suddenly appear in front of her, and her pupils shrank sharply, her face turned pale, and her body stiffened.

When she saw Behringer, who was wearing a black cloak behind him, a bad feeling welled up in her heart.

Bertrand smiled innocently at her, but the next second, his eyes turned as cold and venomous as a snake's, staring intently at her. "Where's Chi-chan?"

Ai Haibara shook her head stiffly. "I...I don't know."

"Tch." Bertrand curled his lip, suddenly stepped forward and approached her, bending down to look her in the eye. His childish voice sounded sinister. "Chi-chan got hurt again, didn't she? Did Conan say anything to you? You'd better tell me now, or I'll have Rum investigate for me."

“If Rum discovers anything because of this…” A wicked smile crept across his lips, “then your identities could very well be exposed.”

"Rum is different from me. As a former member of the organization, you don't need me to tell you the consequences of your identity being discovered, do you?"

After saying that, he stared at her with a half-smile.

Ai Haibara's back was almost soaked with cold sweat.

She never expected that this little madman would want Rum to intervene in order to get Qianzhu's position.
