Chapter 562 The Xia people truly love peace
Qianzhu took the drink and took a small sip. A smile of apology appeared on her pale face. "I'm sorry, I made you worry again. Did something happen just now?"
Conan let out a breath and told him everything that had just happened.
"So it was that dangerous just now..." Qianzhu's eyes widened slightly, a trace of lingering fear flashing across her face. She then turned to look at Liu Qingyao, tilted her head slightly, and smiled. "Thank you for what happened earlier."
"You're welcome, after all, we're friends." Liu Qingyao gently patted his shoulder.
"But now that the car is gone, how are we going to get back?" Kogoro Mouri scratched the back of his head, looking slightly troubled.
"Don't worry, I just contacted my friend to come pick us up," Liu Qingyao waved her hand reassuringly, just as her phone beeped in her pocket.
He took it out and glanced at it, then looked up at the convenience store entrance. "Look, he's here. Let's go."
Outside the convenience store, a brown-haired young man got out of his car and waved to them.
Liu Qingyao helped Qianzhu to her feet, and together with Kogoro Mouri and the others, they left the convenience store.
"Hello." Hoshino Tsukasa smiled at them and opened the car door for them to get in.
"Thanks."
Before getting into the car, Conan glanced curiously at Hoshino Tsukasa and happened to see a strange smile on his lips, which immediately made him wary of him.
This guy...
On the way back, Conan thought a lot. His doubts about Liu Qingyao being L lessened considerably, but at this moment he began to question Hoshino Tsukasa again.
However, apart from what he had just witnessed, he did not exhibit any other abnormal behavior on the way.
After dropping them off at the Mouri Detective Agency, Hoshino Tsukasa left.
Conan lifted his foot and reached out to tug at Liu Qingyao's clothes, then waved his hand to make him squat down a little.
Liu Qingyao looked down at him in confusion, then squatted down and asked, "What's wrong?"
"Actually, I wanted to ask about your friend," Conan said, scratching his head sheepishly.
"Him? His name is Hoshino Tsukasa. Actually, I haven't known him for very long. We met at a photography exhibition last time. We asked him to pick us up this time simply because he lives nearby." Liu Qingyao grinned and gave a thumbs-up.
Conan: "..."
Looking at Liu Qingyao's sunny and cheerful demeanor, Conan's lips twitched slightly.
The people of Xia were indeed peace-loving.
"Alright, if there's nothing else, I'll take Chino-kun back first. Goodbye." Liu Qingyao stood up, not forgetting to ruffle Conan's hair.
"Okay, then be careful on your way!" Conan waved to them.
Turning around and going upstairs into the house, Conan couldn't help but sigh.
The Black Organization, the Church, masked men in black... and Hoshino Tsukasa, whose intentions and motives are unclear...
As he pondered, he let out another long, silent sigh.
...
In the new safe house.
The silver-haired boy, clutching a plush cat-shaped bag, nestled in the arms of the woman in the red dress, his eyes closed as if he were asleep, though his brow was slightly furrowed, suggesting he wasn't sleeping soundly.
A hint of heartache flashed across Afra's eyes as she reached out and gently smoothed the furrow between his brows.
"Xiaoye..."
She murmured softly, a flash of murderous intent suddenly appearing in her eyes.
