Chapter 240 Shadow
Hearing his affirmative words, Bertrand finally smiled. "Yay! Can I go now?"
Seker nodded, a faint smile appearing on his handsome face. "Alright, go have fun."
"Hmm~" Bertrand swung his bag around and skipped away happily.
After he left the lab, the relaxed expression on Seeker's face vanished, and he immediately frowned and took out his phone to report to Karasuma Renya.
[Boss, Bertrand has very faint scars on his body, currently speculated to be injuries sustained before joining the organization. Also, his constitution is somewhat peculiar; whether this will have any impact is currently unknown, but his body is indeed very healthy, much better than the average person. —Sekt]
[Yes, you and Gin will be in charge of investigating what happened before he was seven years old.]
The other party replied to him almost instantly with a single sentence.
[Yes, Boss. —Sekt]
Putting his phone away, Seeker took a deep breath, glanced one last time at Bertrand's medical examination records on the table, and silently sealed them as top secret.
After leaving the experimental base, Bertrand was delighted to walk down the street with Afra.
From the time he fell into a coma until now, the staff at the distillery have contributed a lot of emotional support to him.
Bertrand, who was skipping and jumping with Afra's hand, suddenly turned around, squinted at a corner, snorted softly, and continued walking forward.
Around a corner behind him, Conan leaned against the wall with a terrified expression, cold sweat pouring from his forehead. Beside him stood Ai Haibara, whose face was equally horrified.
What an unfortunate coincidence to run into some little lunatic!
Conan still vividly remembers the scene where the baby-faced boy showed him Miyano Akemi's corpse and a real skeleton, and the scene where the boy swung a spiked club at him from the rooftop.
As for Ai Haibara, her earliest shadow over Bertrand was two years ago when she went to Mermaid Island with Gin to investigate the matter of immortality.
They went there to investigate immortality, but the baby-faced guy was more interested in the so-called 'mermaids' and kept clamoring to see them.
But after discovering that the immortality on Mermaid Island was a lie, his desire to see mermaids vanished, which made him very angry.
"If there are no real mermaids, why use things like dugong arrows to deceive people? That's outrageous!"
The thirteen-year-old boy, with an even more childlike face, tugged at Gin's sleeve and grumbled in a very dissatisfied tone.
Gin clicked his tongue impatiently. "Didn't I tell you not to get your hopes up too high?"
Bertrand puffed out his cheeks and shook Gin's arm vigorously. "Waaah! I came to see the mermaid, okay?! Mermaid!"
Just then, a voice with an extremely nasty tone and the smell of alcohol came from the side, "Oh, what mermaid? Only a naive guy like you would believe that, right?"
The man laughed heartily and talked a lot more, his face flushed with drunkenness.
Drunkards are not afraid of killers or model workers.
Even when Gin's cold gaze fell on him, he didn't stop.
Sherry glanced at the boy who was clinging to Gin's arm.
His eyes were filled with tears, and he looked aggrieved with a slight pout.
After glancing at the man, he pulled Gin away.
Shirley, who was standing to the side, glanced at the boy who was several years younger than her, and wondered what was going on.
It sounds different from what the other members said...
