The huge research institute is still burning, and the billowing black smoke has formed a pillar reaching the sky, which can be seen from a long distance away.

"Ginji, it's me... bring me the things, and the address has been sent to you... Well, okay, we'll see you later."

After hanging up the phone, Kitahara Sosuke secretly gasped for air, inserted a piece of glass shard into his thigh, took out a bandage from his backpack and simply wrapped it, and finally no blood could be seen gushing out.

At this moment, Kuroba Kaito had left. He had to be anxious, because the guy who was holding his face was already armed with weapons and went to the people Kuroba Kaito cared about who were defenseless against him.

He also wanted to cause trouble everywhere in the name of Kaitou Kidd. If those weapons were used when being chased by the police, he didn't know how many casualties would be caused.

But despite this, he still refused Kitahara Sosuke's help and insisted on facing the robot alone. As for the reason, Kitahara Sosuke didn't need to think about it - escaping from the explosion with Kuroba Kaito was not without cost.

No matter how strong Kitahara Sosuke is, he will not move instantly, and he will still be affected in some way. Considering that his physique is much stronger than Kaito, a real boy, he uses his body to protect Kuroba Kaito in times of crisis.

As a result, I suffered more than ten injuries, large and small.

So after climbing up from the cliff, looking at Kitahara Sosuke who looked like a bloody gourd, how could Kuroba Kaito have the heart to continue to involve him?

But Kitahara Sosuke himself knew that these were just superficial injuries. When all the injuries were added up, they were not as serious as the first time he was shot. It was just that he was bleeding all over his body, so it looked scary on the outside.

After skillfully treating the other wound, Kitahara Sosuke endured the pain and stood up. His body shook unconsciously before standing firm again.

Kuroba Kaito is a normal human being. Although he is an expert in magic, he is not good at martial arts. If that robot is half as intelligent as Kitahara Sosuke envisioned, the boy would have no resistance in front of it.

.

You can't watch him fight bravely and bravely, and then really have to fight to the death.

It's just a pity that Visa...

Just as Kitahara Sosuke was thinking this, he suddenly heard a cry——

"Woof! Woof woof woof! Woof woof!"

"Visa?"

Kitahara Sosuke looked up in surprise and saw a black dog running from the other side of the collapsing research institute. After seeing Kitahara Sosuke covered in blood, it stopped suddenly and looked at him in shock, round and round.

His eyes were full of worry, and he came closer cautiously, letting out a low cry in his throat: "Woooo..."

"Okay, I'm fine."

Kitahara Sosuke reached out and touched the big dog. Fortunately, it was not injured, but its fur seemed to be partially burned by the flames. However, it was very dark anyway, so it was difficult to see it like this.

Suddenly, Kitahara Sosuke touched the big dog's chin for a moment. He took his hand back, and there was a piece of scarlet liquid on his fingertips.

--Blood?

But Visa was not injured...

"Woo... woof woof."

The black dog circled around twice, barked in a low voice, and turned around to signal.

When it opens its mouth, obvious blood can be seen between the teeth.

Kitahara Sosuke was silent for a moment, and when Visa became obviously a little anxious, he stood up and walked over. The black dog immediately jumped twice with joy, and then led Kitahara Sosuke in the direction where it ran before.

It didn't take long for Kitahara Sosuke to see something that Visa must take him to see——

is a person.

To be precise, it's a corpse.

A bald old man, tall but not burly, wearing a white coat and a pair of white gloves, with a painful and shocked expression. He was dead, with huge wounds on his neck and chest, and blood was flowing all over his body.

There were also traces of being dragged, and the clothes were bitten to the point of deformation.

Kitahara Sosuke understood clearly - this was probably Dr. Mikami who invented the robot. He eventually died tragically at the hands of his invention. Then he was discovered by Visa for some reason, and it dragged the person out before the explosion.

"Woooo..."

Visa rubbed against Kitahara Sosuke's legs and looked up at him, his eyes seemed to say - "Hurry and save people!"

"Silly boy, he is already dead."

Kitahara Sosuke touched the big dog's head with pity, and just as he was about to turn around and leave, an idea suddenly flashed in his mind.

Yeah...this guy invented that robot...

……………………………………………………

The black dog with the leash still tied around its neck was squatting on the roadside, staring at the little nurse who was treating Kitahara Sosuke's wounds, as if he was afraid that if he blinked, his owner would be in danger again.

This was a small private clinic, divided into two floors like the Maori Detective Agency. The first floor was for business, and the second floor was residential. Apart from him, there were no other patients in the clinic.

"Yes, I'm sorry...it hurts a lot, right? The doctor should be back soon."

The teenage nurse said in a panic. She looked like a middle school student. She was almost frightened to tears when she saw the bloody gourd-like Kitahara Sosuke entering the door. Her hands were shaking when she took cotton swabs for disinfection.

"It doesn't matter." Kitahara Sosuke endured the pain and said, "Where is the doctor? Are you alone here?"

"Well, usually it's just me and Dr. Asai. But in the morning, grandma Sasunari who lives in Sanchome accidentally fell and injured her body. The doctor went to treat him, so I was the only one left." The little nurse said tremblingly.

.

"So that's it... I'm sorry, I seem to have scared you." Kitahara Sosuke said with a wry smile.

"No...it's not your fault..." The little nurse felt that the young man covered in blood in front of her had a gentle temper and didn't seem so scary. She bravely raised her head to look at him and asked in a low voice: "Do you feel any pain?"

?”

"It's okay." Kitahara Sosuke smiled reassuringly and said, "I'm a man! So I don't feel much pain."

"Oh..." The little nurse didn't understand the logical relationship. After responding, she asked the question she really cared about: "Um...how did you get injured? Ah...if you can't say it, forget it.

,I...I'm actually not very curious."

She finished speaking carefully and secretly observed the changes in Kitahara Sosuke's face. If the other party suddenly changed his face or showed something like "This is a secret! Woman, you know too much," she would immediately respond.

Apologize!

"There's nothing that can't be said." Sosuke Kitahara made a very unfortunate expression and said, "There is a God Research Institute nearby, do you know?"

"Oh, that place..." The girl obviously grew up nearby. She immediately said: "That research institute seems to have been on the mountain since I was a child. My parents said that there lived a man who was doing research and became insane.

The crazy doctor, let us stay away."

"His research institute exploded, and I happened to be nearby at the time," Kitahara Sosuke said.

"Huh?" the little nurse said in surprise: "Explosion? Why did it explode...that doctor..."

"Unfortunately, he passed away."

"Oh..." The little nurse did not feel any sympathy for the sadness. After all, she was not very familiar with that person. After politely expressing her sympathy, she wanted to know the details of the explosion.

But at this time, Kitahara Sosuke had already seen a familiar car parked outside the clinic, and smiled: "Sorry, I have to go."

"Let's go? But your wound hasn't been cleaned yet... Should we wait until the doctor comes back to check it again?" the little nurse subconsciously stopped her.

"It's okay, as long as the wound stops bleeding. I have something very important to deal with now. Can you please help me take care of the dog outside? I'll come back to pick it up later." Sosuke Kitahara wrote a message.

He handed the check to the other party and said: "This is the diagnosis fee and the commission fee for taking care of Visa."

"You can't do this, the wound will be infected! And we don't have dogs in our clinic..."

The nurse was halfway through her words when she saw the number on the check. After being stunned for a moment, she immediately changed her words and said, "I can only foster her for a while!"

"Well, I'll pick it up before you get off work."

The little nurse watched the young man glance at the work schedule hanging on the wall, then smiled and walked straight out. She followed subconsciously to the door and saw the young man squatting down to comfort the big black dog for a while.

, then stood up and walked towards a car.

A man in a long gray trench coat got out of the car, holding a black coat in his hand. The young man covered in blood took the coat and put it on. The man leaned over and opened the door, watched him sit in, and then returned

The driver's seat started the vehicle.

The girl stood at the door, watching the black car disappear from sight, and suddenly an inexplicable emotion surged in her heart - she felt as if she was in the corner of a movie's flashing camera, watching those stirring things.

The protagonist of the storm passed before his eyes.

"Mika, what are you doing standing here?" A gentle voice came from the side.

"Ah, doctor, you are back!"

The little nurse looked at the fresh and handsome man in front of her, and immediately came to her senses, and said quickly: "Doctor, let me tell you, there was a very strange patient just now, he..."

While listening to her chattering about what had just happened, the doctor changed into a clean white coat and pinned his name tag on his chest.

It says——
