What Bermod stated was the truth. No matter what Kuroki was thinking now, he would never let the FBI people take action against Bermod. And why didn't she dare to bring Kuroki Jin to tonight's operation after seeing this major premise clearly?
In this case, she, Jin Kuroki, and a long-range Calvados were enough to subdue an injured FBI and two children who had no offensive power.
If there really were three of them.
"Potter, when I execute this hyena, you will take the kitten with me."
Belmode bent down to pick up the gun. Even though Judy had a gun in her hand, she did not dare to shoot in this situation.
She blew lightly on the muzzle and wiped away the dust with her hands. "Calvados, close the team."
She pointed the gun at Judy, with an undisguised murderous intention hidden in her bright smile.
Kuroki Ren lowered his head slightly, walked towards Haihara Ai with his hands tied, squatted down in front of her, and looked at her level.
"Xiao Ai... Shirley." He temporarily changed his name, his eyes flashing with something, "Come back with me."
"The Doctor and the children..."
"They will be safe," Kuroki Ren knew what she wanted to say, and subconsciously reached out to touch her hair, but paused midway and did not reach out.
"You will be safe too, trust me..."
It is completely impossible to be tough with Belmode. Kuroki Jin has one advantage that is not an advantage, and that is that he is very aware of current affairs and will rationally use everything at his disposal to get closer to that goal.
It was then and it is now. It's true for Gin, and it's also true for Belmode.
So, everyone will be safe...
Over there, Belmod didn't know if she heard Kuromu Ren's words. She raised the corners of her mouth, curled her index finger slightly, and was about to pull the trigger. The next moment a gunshot rang out, but it was Calvados from above who fired.
The bullet... hit Belmod's side of the waist!
"Calvados——!" Kuroki Jin, who was shocked by this turn of events, first subconsciously hugged Haihara Ai, but when he saw clearly that the bullet was not hitting him, his face was full of disbelief.
Did Calvados shoot Belmode? How can this be!
This was indeed impossible, because the next moment, a familiar voice came from his and Belmode's headsets at the same time.
"Hey, long time no see."
The man in his arms struggled slightly, breaking away from Kuroki Ren's embrace, and was slightly startled when he looked up at his expression.
"Potter..." Hui Yuarai was slightly absent-minded: You are smiling...
"Rye!" Kuromu Ren's mood changed instantly and he said sternly, "Bai..."
Time was running out, and he could only express what he wanted to say by calling his name.
Even so, it still couldn't keep up with the speed of the second shot.
Belmode was wearing a body armor, and the first shot that hit her in the abdomen did not cause fatal injuries. She was only knocked back two steps by the force of the gun and fell to the ground.
It looked like he had two broken ribs. He wouldn't die, but it would still hurt.
Belmode was indeed in pain, but her sense of crisis made her roll on the spot, and the next moment a bullet hit the ground where she had just been.
Judging from the direction of the bullet, if she hadn't dodged in time, she might have been shot with her neck broken.
The bullet hit the ground, and it was unknown where it bounced, but then Kuroki Ren let out a muffled groan.
"black wood?"
Behind him, Haihara Ai saw a half-crouched Kuromu Ren kneeling on the ground with his right hand covering his shoulder. Soon, bright red blood flowed out from between his fingers.
I don't know if it was a coincidence or a deliberate calculation, but the bullet hit Kuroki Jin right. Because of a collision, most of the bullet's energy had been dissipated.
As a result, the bullet did not penetrate deeply into Kuroki Ren's shoulder, but exposed a bullet outside, and it did not cause any damage to the muscles.
"Akai Shuichi!" Belmode finally called out the person's name, and she gritted her teeth. Opposite her was Judy, who survived the disaster and shouted excitedly: "Show!"
Calvados's sniping point was on the roof of a building built by the water. The building was not high, only about five stories high, and it was not very far from here. Looking up from their angle, they could vaguely see an upright figure.
Even just by looking at the figure's standing posture, Kuroki Jin knew that it was Akai Shuichi without a doubt.
"Belmod, let's go." Kuromu Ren said through gritted teeth, covering his shoulders, "While he is far away there is no way to get down."
"How could I let you go!" Judy had reinforcements, how could she just watch them leave. She fired several shots in her hand, perfectly avoiding Belmod's body.
"Heh." Belmod took a breath of air. She stretched the injured area again when she was dodging. Now it hurts even if she breathes.
She glanced at Kuroki Ren, who was squatting on the spot without moving, and turned over to the car without any hesitation.
"Wait for me at the old place." Her headset had long been torn off and damaged, and Belmode said this directly to Kuroki Ren in code.
Kuroki Jin responded, threatening Judy with a gun not to make any unnecessary moves, and watched Belmode drive away.
"Tsk." Akai Shuichi's unwilling voice came from the headset. Then there was a sound of neat running. It seemed that Shuichi Akai climbed over the floor and came this way.
"Are you okay?" Seeing Kuromu Ren's movements, Haiyara Ai, who had been pressed behind him to prevent her from showing up, forced her head out.
"Injured... um." The original intention was to look at the wound, but unexpectedly Kuroki Ren pulled the person into his arms with a gentle tug.
"Shh-" Kuroki Ren whispered to comfort her who was frightened, "It'll be okay." She said softly.
Those were the last words she heard consciously tonight.
After Kuromu Ren gently placed Haibara Ai on the ground, and carefully took off his coat and wrapped it around her body, Conan behind him asked lightly: "Is it necessary to let her sleep?"
Kuroki pulled out the dagger from his waist, reached to his shoulder without hesitation, and dug out the bullet. Then I pulled off the fabric of my underwear and performed a simple bandage.
"Ah." In response to Conan, Kuroki Ren retracted the dagger and pulled out the gun, "Because it would be better for her not to meet the next person."
"It seems that he is disliked." Behind him, a figure slowly approached.
"Yeah," Kuroki Ren smiled softly, "Rye, long time no see."
He turned around, raised his uninjured arm flat, held the pistol, and pointed it at the person.
The person whom I had met only two days ago, and who would have met five, six, seven or eight times a year, was now greeting me as if I had never seen him before when he defected from Rye to the organization.
But the people present didn't think there was anything wrong with this.
"A mastermind ran away, but I caught two followers." The person stepped out of the shadows step by step. He had short hair, a knitted hat, and a rifle on his back. It was none other than Akai Hidemoto.
"Where's Karl? What did you do to him?"
Since Calvados' voice was not heard from the beginning, Kuroki couldn't help but ask this question.
"Of course, I broke his limbs and let him calm down on it and prepare for the not-so-far journey ahead."
Kuroki Ren's expression remained unchanged, but he sighed in his heart.
Yes, Belmode has to give up one person. What a pity is that, Calvados, the person she is giving up is you.
