Chapter 869 Eavesdropping on others is really rude
Liu Qingyao gently patted his back to soothe his emotions.
After crying her fill, Xiao Zhenzhi fell into a deep sleep in Liu Qingyao's arms, her hands tightly clutching his clothes.
Liu Qingyao breathed a sigh of relief. She wanted to put him back on the bed, but she couldn't get his clothes off, so she just held him like that.
He glanced at Conan and the others.
They nodded and left the room first.
Once the door was closed, Liu Qingyao sighed and leaned back, letting out a sigh of relief.
However, Machika Kawakita did indeed fall asleep.
He thought for a moment, then lay down on the bed and cuddled with Xiao Zhenzhi to sleep.
......
The silver-haired boy had a straw in his mouth and looked quite unhappy.
The people around him kept their heads down, trying to minimize their presence, afraid that even the slightest movement would attract the attention of this little madman!
Getting noticed by him would be terrible! Especially since he's currently in a really bad mood and acting crazy!
Bertrand held a lemon tea in one hand and a knife in the other, repeatedly stabbing the table in front of him.
The knife scraped against the glass tabletop, making a piercing sound.
The quiet and oppressive atmosphere around him made Bertrand's face grow increasingly grim.
He hurled the knife in his hand and slashed it directly at one of the members' cheeks!
The member: ...Ha...ha...ha...I think I just saw a black shadow with a scythe flash in front of me...
The others looked at each other, bewildered.
Ever since Asti was blown up by this little madman, no one has dared to approach Bertrand to chat with him and distract him.
Moreover, his emotions became increasingly volatile, and he would throw a tantrum over the slightest displeasure.
The entire staff at the distillery were trembling with fear.
"Xiao Ye, let's go for a walk."
The ever-present Afra suddenly appeared beside Bertrand, took his hand, and whispered.
Bertrand's expression changed instantly, her cute face breaking into a sweet smile. "Okay, let's go now!"
He threw the empty can into the trash can, grabbed Afra, and ran out of the safe house.
They went out onto the street, walking and stopping intermittently.
Bertrand wanted everything he saw, looking around and piecing things together, completely unlike his previous extremely low-spirited demeanor.
However, after walking around for a while, he got bored again. He sat down on a stone stool next to him, propped his cheeks up with his hands, and looked listless. "So boring, I feel like there's nothing fun left."
He sat there for a moment, then suddenly stood up, his eyes sparkling, and tapped his left palm with his right fist.
"Oh yeah, let's go find Chi-chan and play!"
Without hesitation, he skipped and hopped towards the Chino residence.
Afra followed behind him at a leisurely pace.
Chino House.
Bertrand still rang the doorbell and then climbed over the wall, then climbed into the house through an open window.
"Chi-chan~"
"Chi-chan~"
"千↗酱↘"
He wasn't in the living room, the kitchen, or the bedroom, so Bertrand explored other places and found him in the backyard.
In the flower bushes.
Bertrand blinked, then blinked again.
"Oh no! Chi-chan has fainted! Afra, call an ambulance!"
As he spoke, Bertrand ran over and helped Qianzhu up.
His face was unusually pale, and blood trickled from the corner of his mouth.
This is the first time the disease has flared up since the repairs were performed in the Death Lab.
So it really is the effect of the clone's death?
Bertrand looked thoughtful.
However, he quickly put it out of his mind and continued to immerse himself in the current plot.
"Chi-chan! Waaaaah, you really can't take care of yourself by yourself, waaaah! I think I'll take you back to the organization!"
Bertrand wiped away the two fake crocodile tears from the corners of his eyes as he sobbed.
The ambulance arrived at the courtyard quickly.
The people at the Kudo residence also heard the ambulance siren, and when they looked out, they were shocked to find the vehicle parked outside the Chino residence!
Conan and Ai Haibara: !!!
The group was shocked to see Bertrand and Afra getting into the ambulance with them.
Why is Bertrand suddenly here?!
Did he do something to trigger Qianzhu's illness?!
They quickly followed the ambulance to the hospital.
After the doctor examined them, he told Bertrand and Afra the details, which Conan and the others, who were standing outside the door, also heard.
Bertrand nodded with a smile, "We know~"
Upon hearing this, the doctor gave him a slightly strange look, nodded, told them to take good care of the patient, and then left the ward.
Bertrand chuckled and sat down in the chair, resting his elbows on the bed, his palms supporting his chin, his big, round eyes staring longingly at the unconscious Qianzhu.
His tone held a strange undertone as he muttered, "That's odd. Could it be an effect of Behefinger's death? But wait, just in case, didn't I have those guys give Chi-chan some medicine?"
The doctor gave him a strange look, and before the group could even push open the door, they heard him talking to himself at a not-so-quiet volume.
Conan's outstretched hand suddenly stopped.
What's the meaning?
Will Behefinger's death affect Qianzhu? Why? And why was Qianzhu given medicine just in case? What medicine? Why was medicine given?
A string of question marks floated past their heads.
Conan recalled that at the banquet held by the Kita Aya family last time, Chizuru was called away by Kita Aya Otogo alone. Could it be that Kita Aya Otogo fed Chizuru the drug at that time?
Just in case, perhaps it was because Bertrand didn't actually have much intention to kill Behringer at the time, since he wouldn't disobey his orders then...
Conan's brows furrowed deeper and deeper.
This should be a connection between Bertrand and the church.
But what was the content of the deal between Behefinger and the church that Kita Ayane mentioned last time?
Conan put these questions aside and reached out to open the door.
Bertrand, who was deep in thought, heard the sound, turned around, and gave a bright smile.
"Wow, you guys came really fast! Were you following the ambulance the whole time?"
Now, apart from Ran Mouri and a few others who don't know his true identity, no one gives him a friendly look.
However, Ran Mouri and the others weren't there today, so they wouldn't notice anything amiss between them because of the strange atmosphere.
Bertrand didn't care whether they paid attention to him or not; he was happy as long as he found it amusing.
He suddenly seemed to remember something, raised an eyebrow slightly, and asked with a grin, "Hey, you guys didn't just arrive, did you? Did you hear what I was saying? Eavesdropping on other people's conversations is so rude!"
