Chapter 963 [Observation] He casually controlled the person he mentioned in a joke.
The moment the door behind them closed, both Xiao Ye and the man behind him smiled.
Of course, even if it's just a small child, they can continue to laugh.
Swinging the small shovel in her hand, Xiao Ye slowly turned around, looking at the man lying on the ground with a surprised expression with a smile.
He chuckled twice, "Uncle, your house is so beautiful! I'm so glad I came back with you!"
Xiao Ye patted the back of the shovel with one hand and searched the man's house in front of him, taking everything he could, including cash. His practiced manner was unlike that of a first-time offender.
After completing the ransacking operation, Xiao also dragged the tall and strong man from the entrance hall into the living room.
"It's so heavy, it's tiring."
He put one hand on his hip and exhaled heavily.
Liu Qingyao: "? Wait, are you really that strong?"
Bertrand was surprised and skeptical: "Oh? It's alright, isn't it? Are you not capable?"
Liu Qingyao paused for a moment, then gritted her teeth: "...How am I not good enough? If there weren't so many people here, I would have shown you whether I'm good or not!"
Qianzhu and Beihefeng, standing between the two: "..."
Qianzhu: ...Please, just let whoever is on the show sit with Qingyao.
Looking down at the man, Xiaoye smiled reassuringly at him, "Uncle, don't be afraid. It hurts, but it will pass quickly~"
With that, he raised the small shovel in his hand. It looked like just a plastic toy shovel, but at that moment it gleamed with a cold luster, like a sharp knife.
The man only felt a cold light flash before his eyes, and in the end, all he could see was that seemingly innocent but actually excited and wicked smile.
With a splash, the scarlet liquid splattered everywhere.
Xiao Ye squatted down beside him, shoveling sand around as if he were playing, and finally shoveled out the still-beating heart.
"whee."
Xiao Ye casually tossed the heart aside, took the shovel to the bathroom to wash the blood off her hands and the shovel, rummaged through her bag to find clean clothes to replace the blood-stained ones, then stuffed the shovel and clothes into a bag and put them back in her bag.
He didn't even glance at the lifeless man as he passed through the living room, and simply left through the front door.
When Xiao returned to the coffee shop, Behringer had already packed up everything he had bought, so he took out the things he had taken.
"?"
Looking at these things, Behrfinger was completely bewildered.
Xiao Ye smiled and calmly said, "It was a gift from someone."
"...Oh, oh."
Behrfinger never considered questioning anything; he believed everything Xiao Ye said.
Looking at the obedient Behringer, Xiao sat on the bed, his expression thoughtful.
"Beibei, would you trust and obey other people this much?"
After a long while, Xiao Ye rested her chin on her hand, her clear eyes fixed on Behringer, and asked him a question in a calm tone.
Bechfenger exclaimed "Ah!" and turned to meet his gaze in confusion. "Why should I believe them if I don't know them?"
"What if we get to know each other?" Xiao Ye asked again.
Behringer was momentarily at a loss, racking his brains but unable to find a way to answer his question.
So Xiaoye asked him a different question, "Would you suddenly disappear like Xiaoqian?"
Behrfinger immediately shook his head, looking at him earnestly, "No, no! Absolutely not!"
"Really?"
Xiao Ye's eyes curved slightly, and a smile returned to her face.
Bechfenger nodded. "Really."
Xiao smiled at him and didn't ask any more questions.
He doesn't need verbal assurances from the other party, because he will monitor their actions.
Liu Qingyao stroked her chin. "So we can see that Bertrand knew a thing or two about what Gu Gu went through afterward."
Behrfinger: "...?"
ah?
Blue Yeye was stunned for a moment, then turned her head with disbelief and a hint of curiosity to look at Bertrand, who was lazily nestled in Gin's arms like a cunning cat.
Bertrand, who was biting on a straw, paused slightly, turned to look at him, and then smiled, "Do you think I would do that, Bertrand?"
Behrfinger's expression sharpened slightly, but the next second he nodded firmly and replied, "I don't think so!"
Liu Qingyao: "..."
Upon hearing this, Bertrand glanced at Liu Qingyao and gave him a slightly provocative smile.
Liu Qingyao: Damn it!
Qianzhu remained calm, her back pressed against the seat, trying not to block their eye contact.
Liu Qingyao: ...Uh, there's no need for that.
...
Although the younger one was there, they couldn't just stay in the house every day when the godfather wasn't around. So, when there wasn't much to do, Behefinger would go out to gather some useful things, and occasionally go to a secluded place to practice magic.
As for why he doesn't practice indoors...
Uh, what if it gets burned?
When Bechfenger went out, Xiao Ye remained in his room, fiddling with his butterflies and studying his dolls.
Finally, he held up a black butterfly that was a size smaller than his hand, and took out a heavy computer. He fiddled with the computer for a bit.
Soon, a live video feed appeared on the computer screen, and the visuals were those of the butterfly.
Xiao Ye smiled enigmatically, opened the window, and released the butterfly out.
Go ahead~
Watching the butterfly fly away, he closed the window to keep out the cold wind from outside.
He leisurely heated up a glass of milk for himself, then snuggled back into his still-warm bed.
The image on the computer screen trembled slightly, but remained relatively stable and clear. The mechanical butterfly moved quickly, and Behffinger appeared in the image almost immediately, remaining there throughout the entire scene.
Xiao Ye stared intently at the computer screen, a slight smile playing on her lips, and casually pressed the power button.
He certainly wouldn't watch him every second, but he needed to be able to keep track of his movements at all times.
Looking at this, Liu Qingyao frowned and turned her head slightly to glance at Behringer, but unexpectedly, Bertrand had the advantage of being "close to the water tower and got the moon first".
He cupped his hands around his heart and looked at Behringer with genuine concern, "Beibei, don't misunderstand, I'm doing this to protect you."
Bechfenger nodded seriously. "I believe you."
Liu Qingyao slapped her forehead.
The others were also angry and frustrated, either covering their faces or pinching their brows.
have to.
This mushroom is beyond saving.
...
Before Behefinger practiced teleportation magic, Xiao Ye had already prepared to stuff the new photographic butterfly into his cloak.
As for why Xiao Ye made him wear a cloak?
Of course, it's about using a popular characteristic to mask a niche characteristic.
While disguise is an option, a cloak is still more convenient, isn't it?
The person quickly puts on the coat, and then quickly changes it off to reveal another person.
Besides... he needed Behefinger to do some things for him, and pretending was too troublesome. Moreover, once he learned magic, he could put it to use...
A tiny blond child, with his beautiful light green eyes squinting, was pondering many things on his own.
...
After learning the wrong teleportation technique in Behffinger and ending up in Japan, R talked with Koya for a few minutes.
"So this is the last time you'll come to see us?" Xiao Ye sat in the chair, her hands resting on her knees, looking obedient and well-behaved.
R glanced at the two-faced little guy, a hint of a smile flashing in his azure eyes, "After all, I've spent quite a bit of time here with you."
Xiao Ye nodded calmly, "I understand."
"Also, when Behefinger returns, please give this to him for me." R took out a gem and placed it in Xiao Ye's hand, then smiled and got up to leave.
Xiao Ye lowered her eyes slightly, glanced casually at the rhombus-shaped dark blue gemstone in her hand, and then put it into her bag.
He stood up, stretched, and then turned and went back to the coffee shop.
Before R mentioned leaving, he brought up the coffee shop.
He should go and look for another place to stay.
Xiao Ye pondered.
Back in her room, Xiao Ye didn't rush to do anything else. Instead, she took out her computer and checked on Behringer's condition.
He glanced at the two unfamiliar men who had appeared, but didn't pay much attention to them. After confirming that Behringer was really alright, he shut down the computer and put it away.
He sat there for a moment, then softly called out a name: "Lia".
A woman whose limbs were slightly uncoordinated but whose movements were still fairly smooth walked into the house.
This is a doll made by Xiaoye.
It has many flaws.
It has no independent thought, cannot think or speak, and only listens to what Xiao Ye says.
This is already considered excellent for now, but Xiao is not entirely satisfied.
His expression was indifferent, and he seemed uninterested. "Lia, go and process the locations you marked last time."
Leah nodded and turned to leave.
Xiao Ye watched her walk away through the window.
It is said that a name is the shortest spell.
But for him, it was just a casual nickname that he could use casually.
He stared blankly at the gloomy clouds in the distance.
"Neon lights..."
After a long while, he murmured something in a daze.
After a moment, he came to his senses, propped his head up with his hand, and pondered, a mocking smile suddenly appearing on his face.
"It's not impossible."
Well, how should I put it?
It has a strong sense of conspiracy.
But the video that was played featured a child who was only six or seven years old.
But if it's Bertrand... well, that's not impossible.
Many people kept glancing in the direction of the silver-haired boy.
after all.
At three or four years old, they can read people's expressions and read their moods; at five or six years old, they can brainwash and hypnotize others and quietly take care of many people's children. No matter how you look at it, they are not comparable to normal people.
Not to mention peers, even adults can't compare.
Moreover, he himself is indeed not a normal person.
I used to think he was just a born bad guy.
Later, I realized that he was becoming increasingly unsettling in his thoughts.
Looking again at the boy who was lazily leaning against the man's chest, even the members of the Black Team felt a hint of apprehension, though not as obvious as the members of the Red Team.
Conan and the others seemed to have realized something, and their expressions turned rather unpleasant.
If that's the case, doesn't that mean all their actions are just like a TV drama in the eyes of the other side?
Even live-action dramas with any suspense or setup.
Seemingly unaware that the atmosphere in the theater had become strange, Bertrand was still chuckling, playing with Gin's hair while teasing Behringer.
Seeing Behringer still getting along so well with Bertrand, many people looked up and sighed.
Begonia, you need to be more careful!
After Behefinger returned from the neon teleportation, Xiao Ye pretended not to know anything. Seeing his panicked and tearful appearance, she hugged him and patted him to comfort him.
Then they turned around and brainwashed and hypnotized him.
That's right.
On the very day Bechfenger returned from his first trip to Japan, Xiao had already begun to subtly brainwash him.
The purpose is to be able to hypnotize him more quickly when needed later.
...
Xiao Ye sat alone in the dark, with only the computer screen lit up. The screen displayed Behringer's experiences over the past few days. Although the processing was sped up to save time, he clearly hadn't overlooked any of the small details.
He stared blankly, his thumb nail occasionally jabbing at the pad of his index finger.
Finally, he turned off the computer and rested his chin on his hand, deep in thought.
"It's still not working quite right."
He was talking to himself.
"I can't keep an eye on him all the time, watching for any dangerous elements around him..."
"Moreover, the quality of the dolls is not very good. Dolls that have not been treated with magic are defective products that cannot last long."
"As expected, I still have to let him do it himself..."
Xiao Ye spoke slowly, a sharp glint flashing in his eyes, and quickly decided what to do next.
He remained silent for a moment, then returned to his room, lay down beside Behringer, gazed at him for a few seconds with a deep look in his eyes, and then slowly closed them.
In a short scene, when Ran Mouri and the others felt cold, they subconsciously raised their hands to hug their arms and rub them, which warmed them up a little.
Unlike his obedient baby persona during the day, and unlike his smiling face even when covered in blood, Bertrand is more like a demon lurking in the darkness in this scene, a manipulator hiding in the shadows, controlling someone he speaks of with just a few strings in his hand.
This feeling is the most chilling, as if your heart is being tightly gripped, and you are easily mocked by the other party without even realizing it.
Morataya clicked her tongue softly, her tone wistful.
“You are even more wicked than I am, a sorcerer of pure blood.”
Bertrand licked his lips, then turned to look at her with a bewildered expression. "What?"
Morataya said nothing more.
The others looked at him with complicated expressions.
Including gin.
Judging from this, it seems that on the surface he was indulging him, but in reality it was more like he was treating him as an interesting toy out of boredom, which is why he kept provoking him.
Just like when they first met, the little guy who wasn't even as tall as his leg showed great interest in him the moment he saw him.
