Chapter 556 It'll be fine once I fall asleep
His gaze seemed to penetrate the wall and look outside.
Scotland's expression turned slightly cold, and he also turned his head to look in the same spot.
Afra, who has been appearing and disappearing mysteriously lately, suddenly appeared beside Bertrand.
This commotion caught the attention of Gin and the others.
Vodka followed their gaze to the wall with a puzzled look, then looked back at Bertrand and asked, "What's wrong, Bertrand?"
Bertrand shrank back, reached out and hugged Afra's arm, looking at him and Gin with teary eyes, "I feel someone is watching me."
Gin frowned, pondered for a moment, and then said in a cold voice, "We have to give up on this safe house."
"Could they be following Scotland?" Vodka guessed naively.
"Impossible. Su-chan is very good at counter-surveillance. No one could follow him unless the other person is even better than Su-chan," Bertrand retorted, pursing his lips.
Vodka immediately shut down.
"No matter what, let's get out of here first." Vermouth stood up and flicked her long hair.
Scotland bends down to put shoes on Bertrand.
Nodding, Bertrand stood up. "Then I'll have my dolls come and get the things later."
"The organization just acquired a new safe house."
Gin took out a cigarette and put it in his mouth.
Clutching a kitten-shaped handbag, Bertrand followed them out of the safe house, glancing up at the spot where the boy had been observing the safe house.
Vermouth frowned as she glanced at Bertrand, who seemed somewhat distracted.
Could it be that people from that research base have come looking for us?
The new safe house was well-hidden and unknown to anyone except a few core members.
However, if the other side's tracking capabilities are superior to those of Scotland, then they will likely be able to find them again very quickly.
"Sweetheart, you and your dolls shouldn't go out for now. If you need anything, have someone else handle it." After thinking for a moment, Vermouth spoke with a slight frown.
Bertrand, crouching on the sofa with a plush kitten handbag in his arms, nodded slightly upon hearing this and replied softly, "I understand."
Everyone's mood sank.
The only thing that could make him/his sweetheart feel down is that mysterious research base organization.
Vermouth gently patted the silver-haired boy's head and said softly, "Sweetheart, we're going out to take care of something. You and Afra and the others stay here, okay?"
Bertrand nodded, then lowered his head and buried his face in the kitten.
Only after Gin and the others left did he slowly raise his head, his light green eyes now somewhat dim and lifeless.
Afra and Scotland didn't know what was wrong with him; they just instinctively wanted to cheer him up.
"Does the little one want some candy too?" Afra smiled gently, taking out a few lemon candies.
"Do you want to play with toys too? Or do you want a teddy bear? A kitten?" Scotland pulled out a bunch of toys.
Bertrand seemed depressed the whole time. Afra and Scotland put their things away and sat quietly beside him, not forgetting to pull a fluffy blanket over him.
Afra gently stroked Bertrand's head, silently lulling him to sleep.
You'll be fine once you fall asleep.
When you fall asleep, your mind clears up, and you won't be unhappy.
……if.
I wish it could really be like that.
