It's so quiet inside.
He concealed the gun under his clothes at his waist, then took out a can of hypnotic gas and tossed it through the crack in the open door.
"Bang!"
"Zizzi."
Determining that it must have been thrown to a relatively far location, L waited a while longer.
But so far, no one has been heard to speak.
(this?)
Based on the speed of gas propagation, it should be able to fill the room and knock people unconscious in a dozen seconds.
But what about this completely silent situation?
Even if someone faints, they should make some sound.
But it's so eerie that it's completely silent, like nobody's around.
"Could it be?"
Realizing that there might be an escape route in the room that he was unaware of, L immediately pushed open the door and rushed inside.
"boom!"
The moment I entered, the room was filled with a mist-like atmosphere.
Some of the clothes were still on the chairs.
"Clap."
L cautiously moved inside, but didn't see a single person.
Almost all the windows in the room were open, and the air began to flow outwards with the air conditioner's fan speed.
(Did they escape from the balcony?)
(No)
He glanced at the open curtained door and hesitated for a moment.
The air conditioner's temperature and fan speed were clearly just set.
(Still here!)
Looking at the clothes that weren't completely put on, L knew the person might still be hiding in the room.
Looking around, he had a new question.
Looking back, Sawada Tsunayoshi originally intended to open the door for him, but for some reason he sensed something was wrong.
Later, he forced open the door with a gun and threw in hypnotic gas, an action that few people would have expected.
The quiet behavior, the open window, and the air conditioner running at maximum speed were all illogical and contrary to common sense.
It was as if they had anticipated his actions and had prepared in advance.
"boom!"
Just then, the wardrobe behind him was suddenly pushed open, and Tsuna rushed out, covering his mouth and nose with a wet washcloth.
(really.)
There was only so much space in the room to hide, so L had a pretty good idea of where he would come from.
Intentionally approaching the wardrobe creates this opening, luring the other party out.
Although he didn't know what was going on, it seemed that his plan had been completely seen through.
He took a step back, dodging Tsuna's outstretched hands, and then quickly grabbed the other's wrist, trying to hold him down.
(I won't let you get away with it so easily!)
Having realized the other party's actions, Tsuna abandoned his usual cowardice.
He didn't know who the other person was, but he absolutely couldn't let them harm Anya and Shin-chan.
It's incredible
He knew perfectly well that this was a dangerous act, but he still mustered up his courage.
In the past, he probably wouldn't have had such courage.
There's no other way; he's the most powerful person here. We can't let Anya and Shin-chan face him, so he has to hide.
"Wow!"
The moment the other person grabbed his right wrist, Tsuna used his left hand to grab L's other hand.
"Snapped!"
But L had already reacted and grabbed Tsuna's hands in a counter-grab.
"Ok?"
L should have already declared victory, but he discovered that Tsuna had stepped on his right foot.
The other party's unwavering gaze suggested that things were not so simple.
L stared at the washcloth that had slipped off Tsuna's face, and only then did she realize something.
That is, the gas that was originally filling the room was almost entirely carried outside by the wide-open doors and windows, along with the air pressure from the air conditioner.
"Now!"
Tsuna's voice also made L's eyes widen.
"drink!!"
"what!!"
L then witnessed the two figures jumping down from the small cabinet above.
(it turns out.)
That was a place very close to the air conditioner's airflow, so it was completely unaffected by the previous hypnotic gas.
Anya and Shin-chan pounced on L's waist. Shin-chan lifted his clothes, and Anya quickly pulled out the gun. Then, the two of them jumped to the ground and created distance between themselves and L.
(.)
The swift and decisive action, coupled with the current situation, was something L hadn't anticipated.
"Don't move, bad guys!!"
"Let Tsuna go!"
With guns pointed at him, the two children displayed a level of intelligence that most people lack.
"I see."
"Have you seen through me completely?"
The worst-case scenario I could imagine was being attacked from both sides by two Servants.
He had not considered the possibility that he would lose everything because of the resistance of Sawada Tsunayoshi and the two children.
All the previous mysteries have been solved.
Why didn't Sawada Tsunayoshi open the door? Why is the room suddenly so quiet?
The windows and balcony door were open beforehand, which, combined with the air conditioner running at maximum speed, felt very out of place.
L thought the other party might have noticed and had prepared accordingly, but this ability to react on the spot was so exaggerated that he thought it was impossible for Sawada Tsunayoshi and the two children to have such thinking.
Later, while grabbing Tsunayoshi with both hands, he himself was also restrained.
The fact that L's right foot was being firmly pinned down made him realize the other party's scheme.
Sawada Tsunayoshi deliberately used himself as bait to rush out in order to completely restrict his movements.
The purpose was to ensure that the two children could accurately grab the gun he had hidden.
indeed
If the pistol is still in his hand, then there's no point in resisting.
But once it's taken away, then the situation can be said to have reversed.
After realizing what had happened, L, as the world's number one detective, also felt a strong sense of passion for "outwitting and outmaneuvering" others.
His entire plan was seen through, and he was even countered?
Who is advising them?
He released Sawada Tsunayoshi's hand and looked back and forth between Anya and Shin-chan with a curious gaze.
His pale skin and dark circles under his eyes made him look quite frightening.
L didn't think Sawada Tsunayoshi would have such "wisdom." This "luring the enemy into a trap" scenario gave L a sense of "frustration" for the first time.
He had a feeling.
The reason for the failure must lie with one of the two children.
"Well"
