Stay away from Conan.

Very surprised, as if I didn’t expect that this person would suddenly appear at this point——

"W-Why are you in a place like this?"

Belmode asked nervously.

At the same time, I saw that in the originally white laboratory room, black gradually spread out from the white walls around it——

I saw that the walls of the entire laboratory were actually made of electronic monitors, and it was originally because of the shining white background that it reflected the snow-white color of the entire room.

But at this time, complex black patterns appeared on the screens of these monitors and gradually spread, making the atmosphere in the entire room suddenly become weird.

"Stay back, Belmode."

Just like that, the voice sounded again, directly asking Belmod to leave here.

Hearing this, he seemed to realize something, but Belmod still said reluctantly:

"As for the outcome of Curacao's treatment, that adult has already approved it!"

"But now, that adult has changed his mind."

However, what the mechanical voice said immediately left Belmod speechless. Helpless, Belmod could only retreat and retreat outside the glass door of the laboratory.

Later, when Belmode stepped out of the automatic glass door and locked it in the blink of an eye, he looked back into the laboratory room. He saw bursts of faint smoke spraying from the pipes in the laboratory. out and gradually spread to the entire room.

Then, the display screen in the room completely dimmed, and then the surrounding display screens suddenly reflected the figures of Curacao in different directions at this time, and most importantly, the display screen at the top of the room showed a communication interface— —

"RUM, NO.002."

"R-Rum!"

Surprised, looking at the interface in front of him, Curaçao struggled and was afraid, but finally managed to speak out——

"Curaçao, you have no color now. All you have is pure darkness. If you feel pain because of this darkness, just dye it into other colors."

As the mechanical voice spoke, in addition to the area where the communication interface was displayed, other display screens spliced ​​together suddenly flashed with rapidly brushing, dense, red, and various text.

As the dense text flashed by, the mechanical voice continued:

"From now on, your special ability can only be used by me, whether it is input or output. Then, you will truly become my right-hand man, Curacao!"

——In this way, Belmod outside the glass door stared blankly at the scene in the laboratory room, and Belmod could not help but feel a hint of panic in his heart——

This……

Is Rum brainwashing?

How did you do it?

Because of the smoke that filled the room after I left?

It's medicine!

At this moment, Belmod suddenly recalled the drug that Camu had tried to use on the day Camu was killed——

The organization's former researcher Junerik, the unfinished semi-finished drug!

It was supposed to be a research project that Kamu was secretly responsible for, but now after Kamu's death, has Rum even gotten hold of it?

and……

He also made that adult change his mind...

Originally, I had already asked the Lord to pass the order to execute Curacao, but now...

It is impossible to judge what this incident means, but Belmode knows that from now on, Curacao will become an absolute confidant that truly belongs to Rum!

At this moment, Belmode showed a surprised expression on the surface, but no one knew what she was thinking in her heart...

……

New York, USA, near Jiaming's temporary residence address - After Kamu's death, Hanada Megumi made the choice to remain anonymous, change her identity, and successfully come to the United States, ready to deal with one thing, that is, to Yuan Jiaming was silenced.

As the nominally dead Hanada Emi, after changing her identity, she took action to silence Hara Jiaki. It is natural that no matter which force it is, it would be difficult to think that the perpetrator would be himself. dead".

Regarding this, Hanada Emi was in a very happy mood——

To be honest, since Kamu's death, without the shadow hanging over his heart, it seems that everything has returned to the beginning. The only difference is that his identity has changed.

However, it doesn’t matter. As long as there is no change in what you do, then it’s okay to continue living like this——

Because it's pleasurable.

Even if it comes down to it, if you were given the opportunity to choose, I'm afraid I would choose to do this without hesitation.

After all, the seemingly peaceful life after being sent abroad by that guy was too boring.

On the contrary, it is better to live like this, being a knife that is hidden in the dark and no one knows about it. This kind of life makes me feel at ease...

In this way, when she came to the United States this time, Hanada Emi, who had changed her appearance and identity, disguised herself as a British black-haired woman, and was quietly waiting here——

The target this time, the appearance of Yuan Jiaming.

In fact, as early as a few days ago, after knowing the whereabouts of Yuan Jiaming, Hanada Emi had already paid attention to Yuan Jiaming's whereabouts, hoping to find the right time to take action——

After observation, Yuan Jiaming's action trajectory here is very fixed.

In the morning, he goes to Sindora Company from his residence, in the evening he leaves Sindora Company and goes to the downtown area for dinner, and then returns to Sindora Company in the evening, either sneaking in or finding an excuse to go back. In short, Yuan Jiaming will always be in Sindora Company. Dora and company stayed until late before returning to their residence.

Therefore, based on Hara Jiaki's itinerary, Hanada Emi has found the most suitable opportunity to make a move——

That is to wait until late at night, when Yuan Jiaming returns to his residence from Sindora Company, in this remote corner, he will be killed as cleanly as a homeless man robs and kills.

Hanada Emi had already prepared such an action plan, but when she was preparing to take action yesterday, she discovered that Yuan Jiaming unexpectedly returned from Sindora Company half an hour earlier than usual.

Generally speaking, it usually doesn't happen so early, so yesterday, Hanada Megumi, who was preparing to act, had already found the time to act, but found that the target had already returned to his residence, which made him miss the opportunity.

However, such an action cannot be carried out any earlier. If one were to ambush here earlier, it would be possible to be seen by people nearby because it was not too late.

Therefore, Hanada Emi judged that yesterday was probably just an accident, and continued to carry out her actions according to the original plan today. If another accident happened, it would not be too late to re-investigate Hara Jiaki's action route and make changes. Anyway...

I am not in a hurry either.

In this way, in the old days, Hanada Emi was hiding near Hara Karaki’s residence, waiting for Hara Karaki’s return—

Then, looking at the time, sure enough, during the time period when he was supposed to return, Hanada Emi saw Hara Garaki returning from a distance.

Sure enough, yesterday was just an accident...

Thinking like this, I quietly waited for Yuan Jiaming to walk through the area where I was, so that I could take action directly...

In this way, it felt like a trap was set up and waiting for the prey to enter the cage. Hanada Emi felt extremely excited——

However, at this moment, another accident happened.

Before Hara Jiaming could reach the area where he was ambushing, Hanada Emi saw a new black Porsche sedan driving past the roadside behind Hara Jiaming. After it stopped, a man wearing a long black windbreaker and a black hat appeared. , it seems that the man with long silver hair got out of the car by himself, stopped Yuan Jiaming who was walking on the road and had not yet reacted, knocked him unconscious, dragged him into the car, and drove away... …

Such a sight made Hanada Emi stunned -

Just now, that man in black...
