Chapter 884 Taking Revenge in Other Ways

"There's still a month until the banquet, but Brother Liu..."

Ai Haibara looked at Liu Qingyao with some concern, and had only spoken half a sentence when the door to the ward was suddenly knocked on and then abruptly pushed open.

A doctor, sweat beading on his forehead and his face filled with anxiety, cried out, "Young Master Bei Ling! Death's people have taken the patient away!"

The sound of a chair hitting the floor suddenly rang out, followed by a cacophony of incredulous murmurs from the crowd:

"What!?"

Kuno Naya quickly stood up and strode into Kawasato Machi's hospital room in her high-heeled boots.

The others quickly followed.

However, all they saw was Asa, injured and unconscious in his hospital bed, and a wide-open window.

The whereabouts of Chuan Shengzhenzhi are unknown.

"Damn it, they managed to find a loophole."

Kuno Naya cursed under her breath and turned to let the doctor treat Asa's wound.

Asa's wound was on his forehead, and thick blood flowed down his cheeks, staining his lips a deep red color.

This didn't make him look particularly disheveled; instead, it gave him a kind of broken yet beautiful charm.

The doctor wiped away the blood, disinfected the wound, applied medication, and bandaged it with gauze.

Death's blow to him seemed to be just to knock him unconscious for a moment, so Asa woke up quickly.

He stared blankly at the ceiling for a moment before snapping back to reality, the pain in his forehead causing him to gasp for breath.

"Hiss... What happened...?"

Asa gently covered his wound, looking at Kuno Naya and the others with some confusion.

"What happened before you fainted?" Kuno Naya asked, her brows furrowed and her tone anything but gentle.

Asa paused for a moment, thinking, "After those people took the truth away, they left me a message to pass on to you, saying, 'I hope to see you on the ship,' and then they knocked me unconscious."

Everyone: "......"

We had just finished explaining how they would get us on the ship when we soon learned that Zhenzhi had been taken away by them...

Asa looked at them with a hint of confusion in her eyes, "...What's wrong?"

"It's nothing, we'll find a way to bring the truth back." Conan shook his head. In order not to get him involved, he didn't intend to tell him the truth.

"..."

Asa opened his mouth as if he wanted to ask something, but seeing their serious expressions, he fell silent again.

"Asa, you should go back first. We'll let you know when you bring back the truth."

Kuno Naya looked at Asa and spoke to him in a serious tone, almost leaving him no room for refusal.

Asa hesitated for a long time, looked at her and then at the others, and finally nodded slightly, "...Okay."

"You don't need to blame yourself. It was our oversight this time." As if she had thought of something, Kuno Naya Tsuki comforted him again without changing her expression.

Asa's eyelashes trembled slightly, then she lowered her eyes and remained silent. After a moment, she quietly got up and left.

The room was silent for a moment after he left.

Ai Haibara sighed softly: "So... are we going to wait until the end of the month now?"

“That’s all we can do, since we can’t find Death’s base anywhere.” Kuno Nayazuki shrugged helplessly. “But since they’re trying to use Machi to threaten us, they probably won’t do anything to Machi for the time being.”

She paused, thought for a moment, then looked at the somewhat trembling medical staff beside her and instructed, "Don't stop the drug research either, continue the development."

"Yes, Miss Kuno."

Several medical staff responded and quickly left.

He told everyone else to go home and rest, while Kuno Naya stayed behind to continue looking after Liu Qingyao.

After learning of her true strength, Ran and the others trusted her abilities and listened to her advice to return home.

Although not entirely true, at least for now, Kuno Naya and Kita Ayane are on their side. Conan, while still wary of them, knows that they won't betray their allies for the time being.

So, after taking precautions, he went back with Ran Mouri.

It's just that his childhood sweetheart sometimes looks at him a little strange these days...

......

Since Behefinger's death, Amuro Tooru has never appeared in the organization's territory or in front of its members.

After all, almost all the members of the organization already knew his undercover identity from Bertrand.

Amuro Tooru, having finally accepted this fact, sighed and facepalmed.

There's no other way, so I'll have to think of other ways... to get revenge.

I don’t know when it started, but Amuro Tooru’s eyes have become much more subdued. Although he usually smiles and is still gentle when he appears as Amuro Tooru, something seems to be missing in his deeper depths.

That night, there was a knock on their door.

As soon as Morofushi Kagemitsu opened the door, he saw a red-haired young man handing him two luxurious envelopes.

He glanced at the young man with a hint of wariness and took the two letters from his hand.

The young man smiled at him in a friendly manner, bowed, and turned to leave.

Morofushi Kagemitsu closed the door and frowned as he looked at the envelope in his hand.

Returning to the living room from the entryway, he looked at Amuro Tooru and said, "Zero, someone just delivered two letters."

Upon hearing this, Amuro Tooru looked up from the tablet screen on his lap and gazed at the envelope in Morofushi Kagemitsu's hand.

The slightly familiar feeling made him frown. He reached out and took the envelope from Morofushi Kagemitsu, and examined it. He finally saw the recipient and sender in the lower left and upper right corners, respectively.

The recipients were the two of them, and the sender was Death.

Amuro Toru paused for a moment, then handed the letter from Morofushi Kagemitsu back to him.

Upon seeing the statement that they were certain they would go, the two of them frowned in unison.

After a moment's thought, Amuro Tooru called Kazami Yuya and asked him to send someone to keep an eye on the South China Sea harbor.

However, most of the time has passed, and no useful information has been obtained.

Unsure of Death's intentions, they didn't rush into a decision but instead contacted Conan and his friends.

They then told them that Death's men had kidnapped Kawasaki Machi to threaten them into attending the banquet that day.

Of course, there's another piece of news: they speculate that 'they' will also be going.

'They' refers, of course, to the members of the Black Organization.

Putting aside the other members, just guessing from Bertrand, you know he would definitely come to stir up trouble.

Amuro Tooru and Morofushi Kagemitsu exchanged a glance, chatted with them for a few more minutes on their phones, and then hung up.

While lost in thought, Amuro Tooru unconsciously touched the plush bear beside him.

Ever since he suddenly discovered that the plush bear could occasionally make sounds, he has almost always kept the bear with him.

Although the probability seemed low, he just wanted to hear Behringer's voice again.

The room remained quiet for a long time.

After washing up, Amuro Tooru prepared to lie down and rest. The little bear he had placed next to his pillow seemed to brighten up, and then a familiar voice, neither too loud nor too soft, but very cheerful, suddenly rang out:

"Ah, it's a perfect time to sleep. Goodnight~"

Amuro Tooru suddenly paused, his eyes curving slightly as he smiled faintly.

"good evening."

He muttered something under his breath, then lay down and fell asleep, though the content of his dreams didn't seem to be very pleasant for him.
