Chapter 241 A Mermaid Was Sewn On
But to her surprise, after nightfall, the baby-faced boy led them into a dark alley.
As she wondered what was happening, another set of footsteps approached.
She saw excitement and agitation in the boy's bright green eyes, and then he raised the baseball bat that he had somehow acquired and swung it at the approaching person.
In an instant, Shirley saw that the person who had fallen was the same man who had mocked Bertrand during the day.
The hot, wet blood splattered on her face, making her pause in surprise.
Then, she watched as the seemingly harmless boy, who called her "sister" with an innocent smile and a sweet voice, excitedly sawed off the man's legs, took out a needle and thread from her cute cat-shaped bag, and sewed the man's legs back together. She also sewed a layer of fish skin onto his sewn-up legs.
Finally, with a sweet smile that sent chills down your spine, she looked at them, her body stained with bright red blood, yet she innocently spoke to them.
"Koto-chan! Sherry-neechan, look! A mermaid! It's ugly, but I finally saw it!"
As someone who had been experimenting within the organization since leaving school and had never witnessed such a bloody scene before, Shirley felt a chill run down her spine and her hair stood on end.
This innocent and carefree little madman.
A mermaid was sewn using human materials.
He fulfilled his own wish through bloodshed.
...
"Haiyuan? Haiyuan!"
Ai Haibara was jolted awake from her reverie. She brushed away the hands that were supporting her shoulders and shaking her, let out a soft breath, and looked at Conan with a calm gaze. "What are you doing?"
Conan looked at her suspiciously a few times. "What happened to you just now? I called you several times but you didn't respond."
"I was just thinking about some things," Ai Haibara turned around and replied with a faint smile, "but it has only strengthened my resolve not to provoke that little madwoman."
Watching the aloof girl's rapidly changing emotions, Conan silently twitched the corners of his mouth and muttered a curse in his heart.
"Are we leaving or not? Don't keep those four kids waiting." Ai Haibara turned around and glanced at Conan, who was standing there in a daze.
"Ah, oh." Conan quickly followed.
Neither of them noticed a gray shadow following them.
The Junior Detective League kids had arranged to meet here. When they saw Ai Haibara and Conan arrive late, Machi Kawasaki, who was squatting down, stood up, stretched, and then stared at them with his hands on his hips and half-moon eyes.
"Conan! You're late again."
Conan: ...
Hey, the person next to me is late too.
Seemingly sensing his inner thoughts, Kawasaki Machi pursed his lips and continued, "It must be Conan's fault that Haibara was late as well."
The three little ones beside them nodded in agreement.
Conan's lips twitched in disbelief.
Haibara Ai glanced at the discomfitured boy, then smiled slightly, seemingly pleased, and took a Detective Club badge from her pocket, handing it to Kawasaki Machi.
"This is a new detective badge that Professor Agasa made. Here you go."
Kawasaki Machi happily accepted it with a smile, "Thank you, Haibara!"
He put the badge away and turned to look at Genta and the other two. "So, what are we going to do today?"
"Hmm..." Mitsuhiko thought for a moment, then raised his index finger and suggested, "How about we go check out that 'haunted house' that everyone's been talking about lately?"
