Chapter 803 Their Purpose
The thought that something was wrong had just risen in Conan's mind when he caught a glimpse of Kuno Naya, who had been very concerned about Chizuki, suddenly standing up and leaving the room while everyone was not paying attention.
A hint of doubt flashed in his eyes. After glancing at the others, he quietly followed behind.
Kuno Naya walked to a deserted place, leaned against the wall, and let out a breath.
Conan blinked, about to step forward and speak to her, when he heard two more footsteps approaching. He instinctively pulled back his foot and hid behind a corner. Then he heard a familiar voice, the contents of which made his pupils tremble.
"So, do you think those stupid cops can solve this case?"
His cool voice was flat and emotionless, as if he were talking about something trivial.
This is—the voice of Kita Ayane.
"Heh, it doesn't matter whether it can be resolved or not, I'm not going to let that guy, Yuudera Kagetsuki, get away with it."
Kuno Naya's sweet voice sounded somewhat cold-blooded at this moment. She gave a gloomy laugh, "If she had her eye on someone else, I would have considered going easy on her, but... well, who told her to have such feelings for Chizuru?"
Kita Ayane tapped his fingertips lightly on the windowsill, making a low, muffled sound. After a moment, he spoke slowly, "You'd better talk to the master about this. If he gets angry because of it, the Godfather won't let us off the hook either."
“…” Kuno Naya Tsuki was silent for a moment before speaking with a slight headache, “I know, but that will have to wait until I’ve sorted things out here.”
"Um."
Kita Ayane gave a soft reply, then asked, "Is he alright?"
Kuno Naya smiled teasingly, "Don't worry, I knew this would happen, so I drugged him beforehand and left him at home with L to watch over him. It was E in disguise who came."
She paused, then continued, "However, don't worry too much about him. After all, our current task is just to monitor him and protect him from danger."
"......I know."
"That's settled then, I'll head back now."
"Um."
Hearing footsteps coming this way, Conan quickly looked for a place to hide, but there was nothing in the corridor except for potted plants every few meters.
"Who is there?"
He heard Kuno Naya's voice and quickened his pace.
It's over.
A thought popped into Conan's mind.
"Conan?"
The voice was right next to him, and Conan's body stiffened slightly, but he quickly relaxed and put on his directorial acting skills.
He scratched his head sheepishly and turned around with an awkward smile. "I just saw Sister Naiyue come out, and I was worried something might have happened to you, so I thought I'd come and check on you... but I didn't expect Sister Naiyue to leave so quickly... so..."
"I see." Kuno Naya's lips curved into a half-smile as she looked at Conan, who appeared calm on the surface but was actually panicking inside. She chuckled and patted Conan's head. "Thanks for your concern, but I'm fine. I just came out for some fresh air. Let's go back."
"OK!"
Conan smiled, but inwardly he was already thinking of a solution.
She certainly didn't completely believe what he said.
Kuno Naya walked ahead, glancing at Conan's continuously increasing emotional value, and her smile deepened.
As soon as she opened the door, she saw Ran Mouri and the others seemingly about to go out. They paused for a moment when they saw them return, and then quickly walked over.
"Naiyue, where did you go? Why didn't you tell us?"
"I just went out for some fresh air, don't worry." Kuno Naya smiled at them and took their hands in hers.
Conan, who had just put his phone back in his pocket: "..."
#What should I do if my childhood friend's best friend is a church member? I need help urgently!#
"That's good."
The two breathed a sigh of relief, as if they were afraid that she might do something rash.
Kuno Nayeyue pursed her lips and smiled.
Seeing this, Sonoko Suzuki was about to say something when a commotion erupted in the corridor outside.
They were puzzled and went outside to look.
It's Kogoro Mouri and his group.
Upon seeing the four of them, Kogoro Mouri strode over, a look of relief and joy on his face.
"The police have already checked the tower, and there are no charred bodies inside, which means Qianzhu is alright!"
Upon hearing this, Ran Mouri and Sonoko Suzuki's eyes widened immediately. "Really? That's great!"
They had subconsciously felt that Qianzhu was alright, and now that they heard the confirmed news, they immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
Where is Qianzhu now?
After the initial feeling of unease subsided, they eagerly pressed for more information.
“This…” Kogoro Mouri scratched his head, “The police haven’t been able to find him either.”
"Perhaps, perhaps Brother Qianzhu has already been rescued!"
Conan voiced his guess.
Then he felt a cool gaze fall on him.
Just then, his phone beeped in his pocket. Conan took it out without changing his expression, glanced at it, and then turned the screen towards Kogoro Mouri and the others. "Look! Bechfenger also sent me a message to confirm!"
Ran Mouri bent down and looked at the text message. She blinked and said, "No wonder Behringer suddenly left earlier. So that's why."
"Is that so?" Kuno Naya spoke softly, looking down at Conan with a glint in her eyes. "It's good that Chino-kun is alright, but... what Yumiya Kaguya did must be investigated and made public."
"I never expected that Miss Yumedera would do something like this!"
Just thinking about this person made Sonoko Suzuki extremely angry. "I used to think she was such a gentle and refined girl!"
Ran Mouri pursed her lips slightly and nodded. "Although she was influenced by her mother when she was young, it is still unforgivable."
"Okay!" Sonoko Suzuki suddenly became interested, her movements so abrupt they almost startled Conan, who was deep in thought. She grabbed Ran Mouri and Naya Kuno's hands and said seriously, "Let's go and find out what bad things Kaguya Yumeji has done!"
“Okay,” Kuno Naya replied with a light laugh.
Conan followed behind them, his gaze fixed intently on Kuno Naya, who was engrossed in her conversation with Ran Mouri. Finally, he could only let out a sigh.
The church's target is Qianzhu, so they wouldn't target Xiaolan and the others. Furthermore, from their conversation just now, it's clear their aim isn't to do anything detrimental to Qianzhu.
