Weird fact: This book doesn't have a stated schedule •~• I just so happen to update on Sunday's

Berry has never once claimed this to have a schedule XD so technically she could skip a few weeks, but she won't~

It had been hours since Saguru had arrived at the hospital, which was concerning. Why was it taking the doctors so long to fix up Kaito's arm? He had a creeping suspicion, but he didn't dare think much of it. If his suspicions were correct, that meant that the magician was in serious danger. At the very least he knew that the other's injury was infected, he just hoped that the infection hadn't spread into Kaito's bloodstream.

A nurse rushing into the waiting room cut the blond out of his musings "Is there anyone here for Kuroba-san?" She inquired, glancing around the room.

"I am" Saguru breathed, standing up from his seat "Is he going to be okay?" Why had the nurse been in a rush? It was concerning to say the least.

She studied him for a few moments before pursing her lips "Any family members? We need someone to make the decisions for Kuroba-san since he's unconscious"

Alarm washed through the blond, that meant that Kaito was in serious trouble "If it's a matter of payment, I'm willing to pay for whatever he needs" He had enough money to spare "And I can call his current guardian, Nakamori Ginzo, for you" Ginzo often didn't answer the phone to unknown numbers and since Saguru hadn't told Aoko, he was pretty sure that the other didn't know what had happened. He hadn't wanted to scare the girl "He's an officer and doesn't answer his phone much, but he'll pick up for me" At the nurse's sceptical look he continued "I'm a detective, so I often work with him"

Her eyes lit up a bit in recognition "From the Kid heists..." She nodded "Please contact him" Her own attempts of contacting the guy had failed, so she might as well have him try.

Saguru nodded, whipping out his phone and dialling the inspector. It took about three rings before the inspector picked up.

"Did Kid send you a note?" Ginzo's voice was gruff.

"Kuroba is in the hospital and the nurses need to talk to you, I'm handing the phone over" He gave his phone to the nurse before the inspector even had the chance to reply.

"Thank you" Gold blinked in surprise at the swift arrival of the inspector, the man's face was grim. Aoko was trailing behind him, looking like she was about to cry. Ginzo took a seat next to the blond "If you hadn't been there to call me, Kaito-kun would have been in a lot of trouble"

"I just did what I could" Saguru breathed, he gave Ginzo a curious look "Why did they need to speak to you?" They wouldn't give him any information about the magician's condition.

Aoko let out a small whine, burying her face into her hands, Ginzo pulled her over to sit next to him. He gave her a hug before replying "The damn idiot really messed himself up" His gaze darkened in a mixture of both anger and worry "The infection got into both his bone and blood" He swallowed "Kaito-kun was entering septic shock when they were speaking to me"

Saguru sucked in a breath. Septic shock? That was serious and had a high mortality rate "Surely they weren't going to give up on him?" That wouldn't make any sense, especially since Kaito is young.

Ginzo shook his head "No, but Kaito-kun's treatment and recovery would have been both easier and a lot cheaper if they cut off his arm" Saguru's blood ran cold, that would destroy Kaito "I told them to do everything they could to prevent the loss of his arm" He gave the blond a sideways glance "You're wallet is going to be a couple hundred thousand yen lighter" They wouldn't have been able to afford Kaito's treatment without Saguru's help.

"Thank you so much!" Tears were streaming down Aoko's face despite the small smile she was giving him "Aoko knows that you guys don't like each other, so it really means a lot" She'd been so scared when her dad had told her what had happened.

Gold softened "I'd be a monster if I didn't help" Kaito was different than most people, the magician needed both arms to do the high level tricks that he often did. The loss of an arm, or even a finger would probably devastate him. A prosthetic wouldn't work that well for magic tricks. He glanced towards the hallways "Hopefully this will teach him that he should take better care of his injuries" Kaito would surely study medical books after this.

"Bakaito better not hide his injuries ever again" Aoko stated, clenching her fists "Or Aoko will stop him from practising his magic alone" Which would ruin a lot of the magician's fun since he liked to surprise others.

Ginzo gave a small smile at his daughter's words "And we'll make him study proper first aid for the times when he's too sneaky" The nurses had told him that it had looked like Kaito had attempted to treat himself, but since that obviously hadn't worked he wanted to prevent something like this from happening ever again. He already knew that Kaito would eventually sneak off to do his own thing.

A few hours later the same nurse came into the waiting room, though this time she knew who to speak to "Kuroba-kun is currently stable" She stated with a smile "Though he's going to need more help before he can fully recover. Physical therapy will be required and he must not miss out on the medications that will be prescribed to him"

Ginzo nodded, steeling himself for the inevitable fit the magician will have. Kaito hated hospitals "Can we see him?"

The nurse gave a small smile "Visiting hours aren't over yet, but you'll have to leave when they're over" She pointed down a hallway "He's in room 357, and he'll be staying there for a few weeks since it's in his records that he doesn't do well with recovering and will be at risk for worsening his condition"

Ginzo snorted, yeah, Kaito would definitely not rest properly if he were discharged.

"Let's go tease Bakaito for being stupid" Aoko stated before heading off, Kaito deserved it for worrying them due to his stupidity.
