Chapter 247 Just Sending a Cake
Behringer paused, lowered his head again, and after viciously shoveling the pastry into his stomach, he got up, said something to the children, slipped away to 'pay', and then hurriedly ran off.
"I have something to do, so I'll be going now."
Seeing his expression, Conan frowned slightly, deep in thought, and left the coffee shop.
Ai Haibara, who was behind, told the other three that they had to go back first, and then left the coffee shop as well.
The three behind them looked on in bewilderment as they left, exchanged glances, and then happily continued eating their cake.
Upon hearing what the baby-faced man said, Conan and his companion immediately rushed to the Chino residence, as if afraid he might do something bad.
Bertrand: Nonsense!
When they arrived near the Chino residence, Bertrand also happened to be at the door. He even rang the doorbell before climbing over the wall.
As soon as Qianzhu opened the door in confusion, he was suddenly embraced by a baby-faced man.
Bertrand snuggled affectionately against him, "Chi-chan~ I brought you a little cake~"
Qianzhu staggered and almost fell backward.
Bertrand: ! Oh dear!
The baby-faced girl widened her eyes slightly, a hint of nervousness flashing across her face.
"Chi-chan~" His voice softened considerably.
Qianzhu gently pushed him away, then coughed softly with her fist to her lips.
His pale face revealed a ruthless madness in Bertrand's eyes.
He clearly...didn't do anything.
He seemed to be surrounded by a dark aura radiating intense malice, and he looked at the two people hiding behind the wall not far away with trepidation.
A dark glint flashed in Qianzhu's amber eyes, disappearing in an instant.
Bertrand's mood shifted instantly, as if nothing had happened.
He chuckled and shoved the cake into Qianzhu's hands, then left, glancing back every few steps.
Looking at the cake in her hand, Qianzhu sighed softly and closed the door again.
That little madman really did seem to be just there to deliver a cake.
The two people who were secretly watching breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.
Ai Haibara looked up to wipe the sweat from her forehead, only to realize she had forgotten to return her hat.
She took off her hat, glanced at Conan who was lost in thought again, and said casually, "I'm going back now," before heading towards Agasa's house.
Bertrand frowned as he returned to the safe house, lifting a small pebble at his feet. He was nearly knocked over by a group of high school students with their arms around each other as he turned a corner.
One of them glanced at him and said, "Oh, sorry, be careful next time."
Bertrand lowered his head slightly, a hint of murderous intent flashing in his dark eyes, which then suddenly disappeared, and his eyes brightened again.
He raised one hand to cover his lips and muttered softly.
"No...this won't do."
Bertrand looked up at the sky with a blank expression, then silently headed toward Safe House No. 3.
As soon as the door opened, Gin, Vermouth, and Afra were all there. As for the others... they were all doing extra training.
Upon seeing him return, Gin and Vermouth instinctively extinguished their cigarettes.
After glancing at them, Bertrand sat silently next to Afra, his eyes fixed on the unopened small cake box on the table.
The two, instantly sensing that something was wrong with him, looked at each other and questioned each other with their eyes.
Bertrand sighed deeply. "Qin-chan, sister, I'm so bored. Can you take me out to play?"
