"Conan, what's wrong with you, you look restless?"

Lan stretched out her hand and waved it in front of Conan's sloppy eyes, which brought his thoughts back.

"Ahh......h

Conan blinked his eyes, which were a little sour from not moving for a long time, and showed his trademark "innocent" smile to Xiaolan.

"Dad is a rare time to be generous today, you need to eat more!"

With that, Lan couldn't help but take a piece of roasted beef from the metal grill and put it in Conan's bowl.

"Yes, I know! Thank you, Sister Xiaolan!"

Conan nodded excitedly, and then happily picked up the beef slices full of love and put them in his mouth, and he was about to cry with happiness.

As Xiaolan said, this is a rare time for Maori to be arrogant. In a Maori family with little soup and water all year round, wanting to eat meat so happily is like a dream scene. If you don't eat more, I really feel a little sorry for myself!

However, this is not because Maori suddenly found out that he wanted to improve their food, but because he had just received the last balance of his commission fee. That's right, the famous detective Mori Kogoro has completed a commission perfectly, for the perennial detective Mori Kogoro who has solved major criminal cases, it is not easy to find someone?

Completely forgetting that it was almost all the credit of Xiaolan to find someone this time, Maori smiled smugly and poured a large sip of beer. However, his pride was not transmitted to Conan, who was at the same table as him, and even though he was eating meat on his mouth, Conan was still so preoccupied.

There is no other reason, it is what Takaya said to him when he found that Kenzo Hirota before.

[What are the three bank robbers in the billion-dollar robbery...... Now that he knows, he should have dealt with it, right?]

Conan thought as he flipped through the slices of meat with his chopsticks.

Although he is still a little resistant to his methods and ideas, he at least accepts one thing, that is, he and he are both working for the safety and stability of the city. So, he is now neither for nor against.

If you really want to talk about it, maybe it's more than a sentiment of not admitting defeat, right? I want to solve the problem before he does, stop it before it happens, and not just be a critic after the fact, as he said!

Therefore, the reason why he is absent-minded now is also because of the three bank robbers.

Knowing that the incident is in front of him and not solving it, the little detective is tormented by the soul of justice in his heart.

[This time, I'm afraid I'm going to lose to that guy again......]

Conan sighed helplessly, then put down his chopsticks and took a sip of the milk in front of him.

"Eh, no, how could this happen?"

At this moment, Xiaolan couldn't help but let out an exclamation, which made Conan can't help but follow her line of sight to look at the TV over there.

And the content on TV made his eyes widen involuntarily.

"At nine o'clock last night, there was a shootout in the 3-chome dock area of Rice Flower City. According to insiders, he was fishing in the dock area when he heard a loud noise similar to gunshots, and when he was about to go to check, he saw the figure of the black knight-like figure that was now going viral rising into the air, and chose to call the police. After the incident, after the police arrived at the scene, they did find a lot of bullet holes and bullet marks at the scene, as well as messy car marks, please pay attention to further investigation for details......"

"Guns, shootouts?" Conan opened his mouth in surprise, and the circle around his mouth was stained white with milk, which looked very funny.

"Yes, Conan also thinks it's incredible, right," Xiaolan picked up a tissue on the side and wiped Conan's mouth, "It's not an American blockbuster, a shootout or something, it's too unbelievable, and it's so close to us!"

"Heh, since this little imp known as the Black Knight came out, isn't this kind of thing common?"

Maori burped, drunken and smiled, with a smile that didn't know whether it was contemptuous or mocking.

"Also, it seems that since the appearance of Mr. Black Knight, there has been more news of this kind, and I don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing......" Xiaolan sighed softly, "I just hope that everyone can be safe......"

That's what I'm worried about, Hawkya. Can the path of countering violence with violence really bear the fruits of tranquility?"

Conan let out a long sigh, then jumped out of his chair and walked into the room.

"Where are you going, Conan?"

"Ah, I'll go to the toilet, Sister Xiaolan!"

=======================================================================

The sunlight shines through the light veil, dotted with stars, and gently spreads on the snow-white bed edge.

The just right amount of warmth made the pale and sickly cheeks regain a trace of warmth.

The breeze brushed her eyelashes, flicking the veil and letting the scattered dots of light dance on the bed.

Akemi Miyano opened her eyes slowly.

"Hmm!"

Pain. A burning pain came from her abdomen. While all other sensations were still waking up, a keen sense of pain reached her brain first, making her moan uncontrollably. In the same way, thanks to the pain, her consciousness instantly became clear, and she couldn't help but hold her abdomen where the pain came, and struggled to sit up with her back against the mattress.

"Here...... Really?" Akemi looked around the room, frowning a little puzzled.

The room is large, just like in a five-star hotel, and there is a light fragrance, a reassuring smell.

Obviously, it was a strange room, one that never existed in any of her memories. Because judging from the decoration and layout of this room, it is definitely the kind that her economic level cannot bear, and there is no such opportunity at all.

"I ...... What the hell?" Akemi lowered her head, looking at the white hospital gown that definitely didn't belong to her, and her right lower abdomen, which had been properly bandaged, and couldn't help frowning and began to think back to what had happened before.

Yes, last night, she seemed to have made a deal with Gin as agreed, with the Black Knight, of course. Then, as a matter of course, they broke the contract, and after that, they got into a fight with Mr. Black Knight, and then they ......

Stroking the wound that had been carefully wrapped in gauze and bandages, Akemi's fragmented memory began to gradually become clearer.

Other words...... Is this the home of the Black Knight, or rather, the stronghold?

Just when Akemi was holding such thoughts, the door of the room was pushed open, causing Akemi's body to shrink involuntarily.

"Ah, you're awake?"

A woman in a white lab coat with a crisp single ponytail pushed open the door and walked in, still holding a medical tray in her hand.

"You...... Are you?"

Although intellectually understood that it was probably the person in front of him who helped him bandage his wounds, Akemi still instinctively tensed her body.

"As you can see, I'm a doctor," the man smiled as he put the tray on the side of the cart and pulled it to her bedside, "Don't be so nervous, Miss Miyano, especially now that you've just had the surgery, don't push yourself just yet, in case the wound doesn't burst." ”

"Hands, surgery?" Akemi couldn't help but open her mouth wide, "You mean, I'm ...... I just had surgery?"

"Yes, there is no way to repair that kind of wound without surgery," the woman in white shrugged her shoulders and sighed helplessly, but then showed a smile, "But don't worry, your luck is good, the steel needle didn't damage anything important, just cut off a small bit of tissue, and you should treat it as an appendicitis operation." In addition, we have very fine stitches, plus the most advanced medical treatment, if we recover well, there should be no scars. ”

"Yes, is that so? Thank you. Akemi, who was a little confused and didn't know how to speak, had to express her gratitude.

"You don't have to thank me, if you do, thank you to the knight who brought you back. The woman in white smiled slightly, "Okay, please lie down, Miss Miyano, I'm going to change the dressing for your wound." ”

"Well, I'm sorry for you......" Perhaps sensing the kindness on her body, Akemi's tense body couldn't help but slowly relax, and obediently lay back on the bed, and then unbuttoned her blouse, revealing her belly wrapped in gauze and bandages.

"Well, the wound is recovering very well, and it seems that the medicine in the village is really good. The woman in white put on her gloves and gently lifted the gauze to look at the wound that had been stitched up, revealing a look of satisfaction, and then began to change the medicine for her.

"That, may I ask ......?"

Akemi opened her mouth, but suddenly remembered that she didn't seem to know what to call the person in front of her.

"Ah, my name is Asai Narumi, you can just call me Narumi. ”

As if sensing her embarrassment, Chengshi raised his head and smiled at her.

"Dr. Chengshi, that's the ...... Mr. Black Knight, did you entrust me to you?"

Akemi lay quietly on the bed and accepted the dressing change, while asking the question she had wanted to ask from the beginning.

"I'm still guessing how long it will take you to ask this question......" Hearing her words, Chengshi couldn't help but chuckle, "Well, that's right, it was that helpful Mr. Hero who entrusted you to me!"

"Then he's okay, right?" Akemi couldn't help but ask a little nervously, "I remember, he seems to have been shot?"

"Hehe, he's ......" Chengshi sighed and shook his head helplessly, "He's fine, except for worrying people!"

"Eh, Doctor Chengshi, you know...... The Black Knight?"

Hearing her words, Akemi couldn't help but be slightly stunned, such a tone is inevitably a little too intimate, right?

"I guess if I said I didn't know, you probably wouldn't believe it, would you?"

Hearing her words, Chengshi didn't have the slightest surprise, as if he knew that she would ask this question early on, but just smiled back at her,

"Yes......"

got the expected answer, and Akemi didn't sigh too much.

After all, if it weren't for someone he knew, someone he could trust, Mr. Black Knight wouldn't have entrusted his injured self to her for treatment, otherwise, wouldn't it be more convenient to send himself directly to the hospital?

"Well, do you know his true identity?, of course, it doesn't matter if you don't have to answer......"

Akemi hesitated for a moment, but after all, she couldn't suppress the curiosity in her heart and asked the question.

"To know is to know, but that's all I can tell you. Chengshi glued the new gauze on, looked up, and smiled at her, "Because it's his privacy, unless, he decides to tell you himself." Otherwise, I can't say. ”

"Well, I understand, I'm just asking. Akemi shook her head a little embarrassed, she knew that the question was a bit out of bounds, but it still couldn't withstand the natural curiosity of humans. After all, that's Mr. Black Knight, who is in the limelight right now, and who doesn't wonder what kind of face he will have under his black mask?

"Then for the time being, please take a good rest, the wound in your abdomen will take at least one to two weeks to heal, and it is better to be less active during this time," Chengshi sorted out the dressing change bag, and then nodded towards Akemi, "If you need anything, just press the bell at the head of the bed, and someone will come and take care of you!"

"Ah, please wait a minute! I can't just stay here!" Akemi sat up from the bed and stopped Chengshi, who was about to leave.

"What's the matter, are you worried that those people will find here?" Seeing Akemi's dodging eyes with a hint of fear, Chengshi couldn't guess what she was thinking, "Don't worry, this place is safe, they will definitely not find you!"

"No," Akemi couldn't help but shake her head when she heard her words, and said worriedly, "You don't know them, but they are ......"

"You don't know that Mr. Hero either," Chengshi interrupted Akemi's unfinished words, looked at her deeply, and then showed an indifferent smile, "I know that the group of people chasing you is not simple, you can see from the injuries you have suffered and the solemn face on his face. However, please don't take our Mr. Black Knight too simply. ”

[Otherwise, he wouldn't be such a trustworthy man......]

The last half of the sentence was put in her heart and didn't say it, but it didn't matter, her meaning had been clearly conveyed to Akemi.

These words made Akemi can't help but close her mouth, and she lowered her head and fell into silence, not knowing what she was thinking.

"And he said about those people, and the things you prayed for before," looked at the silent Akemi, and said Chengshi, "when you get better, he will come to see you, until then, please don't worry too much, okay?"

"I got it......"

After hesitating again and again, after a long silence, Akemi finally let out a long sigh, leaned back on the back of the bed as if she was tired, and said no more.

"Well, don't worry, well, rest, Miss Akemi Miyano. ”

Saying this, Chengshi silently closed the door, blocking the sunlight from the outside, and at the same time cutting off her smile and calmness.

The wind passed silently, and the entire corridor was silent, leaving only Sung Shi's heavy heartbeat and a serious expression on his face.

She packed up the waste, replaced a dressing kit, and slowly walked to the study, activating the secret elevator behind the bookshelf.

In the eagle's nest, a shirtless man with his entire back bandaged was staring intently at the magnifying glass in front of him.

On the screen of the main computer, the object he was looking at with the magnifying electron microscope was displayed.

It was a steel needle, a steel needle taken from Akemi's body.

On the other electron microscope next to him, there was also a clear yellow warhead, a warhead dug out of his shoulder armor.

These are the remaining pieces of evidence from the dead shooter, and they are one of the few clues left at the moment.

"She's awake?"

Sensing the arrival of Chengshi, the man said without looking back.

"Hmm. ”

Chengshi walked up to his side, looked at his bandaged back, and sighed helplessly.

"Stop, I have something to tell you. ”

She didn't rush to change his dressing, but put down the dressing change bag, walked in front of his eyes, and stared straight at him.

"What's wrong?" the man said, turning his head and confused.

"Do you understand your own situation?" Chengshi frowned, staring at him with a gaze that could not be described as emotion.

"What's the matter?" the man chuckled, "That expression?"

"You're sick. ”

Chengshi took a breath and looked at her seriously and seriously.
