It had been three days and he had not heard anything of Daredevil or much about that night everything was being kept quiet. It was top secret the higher police were working on what had happened and the entire Task Force was getting kept out of it. Two Task Force members had been arrested for their crimes and they had been killed in less than twenty-four hours. It was a murder suicide well that is what they were calling it and he did not believe it at all and staring at Hakuba`s expression in class, he too believed the same thing and the crime rate had gone up quickly in Beika.
Every criminal believed that Daredevil was dead. The criminals were happy about this and taking every advantage, they could, the police were working double shifts and were tired as hell. He did not realize how much work that she had actually done.
He was hoping that she was not dead and that she was still alive, she was far too stubborn to be dead. And he did not want to feel responsible for her death because she would have died of a result of saving her and nothing else. The girl had survived an explosion there is no way that she was dead. But until he found out he was not going to hold another Heist until he found out the truth, even if it was good or bad he just had to find out.
He was going to start digging into Hospital records or anything that he could get his hands on to find her.
" The police are here to take blood samples for an investigation " said The Principal of the speaker.
Kaito looked at Hakuba at that moment and Hakuba looked back, both of them were confused and unsure of what was happening.
When names were called they, all came back with a bandage or a plaster on their arm, it was obvious that they were taking a rather large sample of blood. And that could mean they were looking to identify from a lot of samples that were collected. They were looking for someone a criminal or a victim, they were searching for someone and he was wondering who it was.
His name was called and he stood up ready to go as he walked down the row of tables and chairs he was shocked when his sleeve was suddenly pulled and it was Hakuba.
" Are you sure that you can give a sample considering...? " said Hakuba quietly.
" How many times have I got to tell you that I am not Kaitou Kid ...and wait are they looking for a criminal or something like that ? " said Kaito.
He suddenly realized who they were looking for and that meant it was a good chance that Daredevil was still alive and she was a High School Student just like he was.
" Wait you have met him ? " said Hakuba shocked.
Kaito moved his arm and huffed.
" If you are talking about Kaitou Kid I only wish that I could meet him " said Kaito and he walked away angrily.
And when they did take his blood he noticed that they did not take a lot as if he was not a suspect. And when he walked back Hakuba was waiting for him in the hall way, he was about to walk the other way but Hakuba had already noticed him and was hunting him like a dog with a bone.
" Kuroba have you met with the vigilante ? " said Hakuba.
He was genuinely surprised by this question and his face had shown it.
" Kuroba! " said Hakuba shocked.
He did not want to hear any of this and he just walked away but Hakuba followed him anyway.
" They found blood and they are thinking that it belongs to the vigilante and that he is dead. They found at least two litres belonging to one person and all I have been told that the same person is around our age and that the blood left quite the trail. And from the last we found that person is or was still alive and moving. By the searching of schools, I am guessing that the vigilante is a High School Student as well and if they find the correct sample then that person will be in danger " said Hakuba.
"...? " said Kaito.
" There is a vigilante ? " said Kaito shocked.
" Hakuba you sound like a conspiracy nut, what is next aliens ? " said Kaito.
PUFF
Kaito was gone and Hakuba was now all grey as he was dressed as an alien and people were staring at him and pointing, confused and bewildered. Hakuba loved in the mirror and he was shocked because he was looking like a real alien. And ended up forgetting all about questioning Kaito because he was struggling to get the costume off and there was actually another lair underneath it.
" Jii she might be still alive " said Kaito.
" She ? Who are you talking about Young Master ? " said Jii.
He was currently on the phone.
" Oh right! " said Kaito.
He did not tell Jii in fact he did not tell anyone or his Doves and he tells them everything.
" I will meet you in five minutes at the Blue Parrot " said Kaito.
And he hung up the phone quickly and he jumped out the window scaled the drain pipe and he ran all the way there.
" Jii we have a lot of research to do " said Kaito.
" I need you to tell me everything you know about Daredevil, so I can protect her " said Kaito.
" Can you tell me what is happening first? " said a confused Jii.
" Oh right! Daredevil is a girl not a guy and there is a possibility that she around my age and the police are searching for her " said Kaito.
Jii had to sit down because he was in shock.
" How ? " said Jii.
He whistled and he then blushed.
" I was only trying to help her to her feet and I accidentally brushed my hand against something I shouldn't have...And to make sure that I was right I may have crossed a line and touched them. She was mad at me and called me on it using her female voice and that is why my hand is sprained " said Kaito nervously trying to sound innocent and not like a pervert.
" You touched her what ? " said Jii.
Kaito just blushed.
" That is not the point...we need to find her so we can warn her and protect her " said Kaito.
" But if Daredevil is female then that means that it is a different person from the one I met and that changes everything because I know nothing other than what I told you " said Jii.
" Well Hakuba is looking with the police, maybe we will be able to get something from him or the police " said Kaito.
" Now a Detective, Young Master why are so keen to protect someone that could kill you or turn you into the police so easily ? " said Jii.
" She saved my life. And I may have told her that I was the son of the first Kaitou Kid and my reason for doing what I did and I may have mentioned Pandora " said Kaito.
" You what ? " said a shocked and scared Jii.
" Well she already knew enough about me and she did not seem to care what I was doing she just wanted me out the way. I think she just thinks I am a pest that is in her way and I did get in her way and she is hurt because of me because she had to protect me " said Kaito.
" Well we will do what we can to help her " said Jii.
" When you met Daredevil what did it feel like ? " said Kaito.
" MMmm like he could see everything and read me like a book. Like he knows me better than I knew myself. Like you said like he could read and tell every lie I was telling and so much more it was terrifying. But had a sense of justice " said Jii.
" I could say the same but she had a little patience with me than normal people do and she only got mad at me when I touched her boobs " said Kaito.
" Well that would make every girl in the world mad wouldn't it! " said Jii laughing at Kaito at his own expense.
Kaito just laughed and nodded.
Jii looked at the teenage boy he was now staring at as he could see that he was daydreaming as he was looking into thin air not paying attention to a single thing that was happening around him. He did not even notice of his own Dove was pecking him on the forehead and he knew that look it was the same look at he saw on his previous masters face. And that was right before he ended up becoming Kaitou Kid and he did not like the thought of him falling for a Vigilante that would be a threat to be the both of them. And what would be next a Detective? This would not end well for any of them and he was hoping that the girl had felt the same way like the last time but he was hoping that this would not end up with another Kaitou Kid appearing. Because that would mean he would end up being a sidekick for another one and he had a feeling the next one could be just as bad or even worse.
" Hakuba we have brought you hear to see if you can help us ? " said a police man.
" Ok " said Hakuba sitting down unsure of what was happening.
" There was a blood sample found and we are trying to find who it belongs to, if it is another victim or that there might be another criminal out there. The point is this person is seriously hurt and we need to find them and fast " said the police man.
He was handed a list of names.
" These are people that we were not able to get a sample from and we were wondering if any of these names are familiar to you and could be a potential candidate " said the police man.
Hakuba looked at the list, he only recognized one name on the list and he knew it was not possible that she was Daredevil.
" There is only one name that I know right away and she is clearly not the vigilante " said Hakuba pointing to the name.
" Kudo Shinichi ? She is a Detective and I hear that she was at the Kaitou Kid Heist and she somehow ended up at the Hospital with internal bleeding and that she had lost a lot of blood. How can she not be a suspect ? " said the police man.
" Are you serious ? " said Hakuba annoyed.
" Well I hear that she is cute maybe that is clouding your judgement or you do not like the fact that a fellow Detective may be a criminal ? " said the police man.
Hakuba just laughed at him.
" She is a great Detective and yes she is cute. But it is not possible for her to do the things that you are asking me " said Hakuba.
" How would you explain why she is in the Hospital ? " said the police man.
" So, you have her medical records " said Hakuba.
" Yes " said the police men.
" And I take it that you have not had a proper look at it because if you did read it properly you would know that she is Blind and therefore is in capable of being a vigilante " said Hakuba smugly.
"...? " said the angry police man as he read the medical records closely.
" You can go now " said the police man.
" And one more thing she was in an explosion at her neighbours earlier that day and he is well known for them. He was treated for burns by the paramedics but she was not. And the explosion at his house nearly burnt his house to the ground. Internal bleeding can take some times take a while to show and that is likely what happened. As hard as it is to believe this one is actually a coincidence and I think the blood was planted and probably belongs to a victim that is likely dead already " said Hakuba.
And he left leaving the police man mad.
What neither of them knew that there was a Dove watching them and was listening on what they were saying.
" Kudo Shinichi ? " said Kaito.
He did a quick search just looking at pictures.
" She is cute, smart and the right size she is Daredevil no doubt " said Kaito taking off the head phones and smiling.
" I found her " said Kaito and he jumped out the window ready to meet her.
Jii walked in at that moment and he listened to the rest of the live recording and his face went grim when he heard the last part.
He knew this girl, the Detective girl and he knew that she could not be Daredevil because he already knew she was blind and he knew this personally and he blamed himself for it ever happening. And he had to warn Kaito what he was thinking was wrong and that this girl was not Daredevil and she would most definitely turn him in if he told her the truth. Not only because she was a Detective but because of who he was and because it was his fault that she was blind.
He tried to call but he saw Kaito had left his phone and he knew where he would be anyway. He would be in the Detective Hospital room and he would be telling everything and tell her he knew who she was and he could not have been any more wrong.
BEEP
BEEP
BEEP
She heard the sound of beeping and it was hurting her ears as she sat up confused to what was happening.
"What, what is happening ? " she said scared and confused.
" Calm down Miss Kudo. You are in Hospital and you are just fine " said the Doctor calming her down.
She was now able to focus her senses and she calmed down remembering everything that had happened.
" Can you tell me what happened ? " said Shinichi.
" Your guardian told us about the explosion that happened at his house and your injuries for some reason did not show until much later in the day. But this is common with these injuries and can happen a lot with other injuries " said the Doctor.
" Injuries ? " said Shinichi.
" Internal bleeding and blood loss but it looks like you are healing fast and that you will be just fine " said the Doctor.
Shinichi sat back in the bed calm.
She was not discovered and she had an actual cover for her injuries it was perfect but she had a lot of things under answered.
The Doctor was now leaving.
" Doctor can you tell me how long I have been asleep for ? " she said.
" Three days but I thought it would be more, you are a miracle patient " said the Doctor.
" Oh " she said.
She was not happy, all of them would think that she was dead and the criminals would be back and each trying to get a place where they would belong and she could not do anything about it while lying in a Hospital bed.
" So, Doc can I leave ? " said Shinichi.
The Doctor frowned.
" No, you have a lot of healing to do and it would be best if you went back to sleep " he said putting a needle into the tube.
" Hey...what are you ? " said Shinichi as she was falling asleep.
" The faster you heal the faster you can get back to your work, we will not have you die trying to save us and you are safe here. We are here to help you like you help us, you can trust us " said the Doctor.
She realized that the Doctor and some others must have found out the truth about her because Agasa brought her in and it must have been in her costume. And they did not tell on her and they knew about her likely because of all the criminals that were brought in because of her.
Wait she remembered that she saved this guys life before and he thanked her he was pleading for a way that he could help her but she just waved it off. What was his name again Dr Araide she remembered, so she found a Doctor that maybe she could trust with her secret and could help her.
She drifted off to sleep as she heard the door being closed and whispers between Agasa and Araide they were talking about her in concerned whispers and that was the last thing she heard before she closed her eyes.
" If the police ask for a blood sample do not give it to me ...just yet " said Agasa.
" They are asking and I did say that she had blood loss and that she had to be given a transfusion so her blood will be different and her clothes well...I said you took them home and washed them " said Araide.
" When will you be ordered to give a blood sample over ? " said Agasa.
" Maybe a day at the most " said Araide.
" That will be enough time for me then for me to do what I need. But will you just keep an eye on her while I am away, someone needs to watch over in case anyone comes looking for her. She needs to be protected while she heals right now " said Agasa.
" I will do what I can " said Araide proudly.
Agasa frowned.
" She is just fifteen and nearly sixteen she is far too young for you " said Agasa.
Araide flushed.
" I know that it is just that she is like no one I have ever met and I would never step over the line. I know she is still just a child but she has taken on the role of an adult " said Araide.
" Good then keep it that way " said Agasa.
Araide was not physically attracted to the girl she was a child in his mind and physically but it was her mind and passion that he was attracted to and he would be willing to wait until she grew up and to see the woman she grew into and what she would become. He was just looking forward to that day but he would have to wait and he would help with every single injury he needed to help with. He just wanted to know what she would be like when she grew up.
