Chapter 601 What to do now?

"Um, what's wrong, Xiaoye-nii?" Ayumi asked cautiously.

Bertrand gripped the axe tightly, his eyes fixed on them, and said in a flat tone, "I'm fine, I just think you guys are annoying."

The next second after he finished speaking, a bright smile appeared on his face.

Before the three elementary school students could react, he grinned and swung his axe, looking as if he was about to chop them down.

Of course, it did indeed come crashing down on them.

The three children were terrified and quickly hid away.

"I really hate you noisy kids! Can't you just stay quiet forever?!"

Slowly pulling the axe out of the wall, Bertrand raised it again with a forced smile and walked towards them, the sharp axe grazing Yuan Tai's arm as it chopped down.

Bertrand looked at them with displeasure and muttered under his breath, "I don't believe I can't beat you..."

He then took out a small white pistol from his bag and fired it at them.

The gunshots rang out through the detective team's badges.

Conan's expression immediately changed.

Seker, standing nearby, frowned. "Did those guys offend my little Bai-chan?"

Conan ignored him and instead shouted at the badge, "What's going on! Bertrand, what are you doing!"

With a clang.

A bullet grazed the back of Mitsuhiko's hand, leaving a bloody gash. The badge in his hand slipped from his grip due to the pain and fell to the ground.

Bertrand stepped forward, bent down, and picked it up, his tone cheerful as if he were chatting with him. "What am I doing? I'm not doing anything. I just think—they're annoying."

After saying that, he threw the badge back to the ground.

Watching the three people who had been protected by the world's consciousness and dodged the bullets, he continued to load bullets into his small pistol, his eyes filled with excitement as he fired at them with bang bang bang.

Conan's pupils contracted, but a hand reached out and took his badge.

Sekter smiled, but his smile didn't reach his eyes. "What my little Bai-chan wants to do is none of your business, you little brat."

"you……!"

Conan gritted his teeth and touched the wristwatch-shaped tranquilizer gun on his wrist.

But what good would it do to anesthetize the man in front of her now? Bertrand is currently with Ayumi and the others, and Bertrand is the one in the most danger right now.

what to do?

The way to activate the mechanism is most likely in the space on the other side, but he has no way to command Mitsuhiko and the others to search for it right now.

What should we do now?

Conan's mind started racing.

Oh, right! The badge in Haibara's hand!

He glanced at Seeker, who was staring at the wall, and then stepped back into the passage.

Seeker noticed his movements but didn't care; he was only concerned with how to get the wall open.

Conan ran back to where Ai Haibara was, briefly told her what had happened, and then tried to contact the three elementary school students using her Detective Club badge.

On the other side of the wall, Bertrand stood with one hand on his hip and his head tilted slightly, watching the three panting teenagers who were staring at him with terrified eyes. He curled his lip slightly in annoyance.

He put away the small pistol in his hand, then took out a folding knife from his bag and walked towards them with a grin. "Don't hide anymore, it's tiring!"
