Chapter 536: How did they end up in this state?

Meanwhile…

Aries made a stop at the back of the Imperial Palace. Since their plan was to surprise Abel, she thought of a way so they could sneak inside. The marshalls at the entrance would surely notify someone about their entry, and it would surely reach Abel's ears. 

Fortunately, Aries remembered a secret entrance Conan told her about. Hence, Aries and Sunny went and checked it out. Conan wasn't lying. Behind the bush outside the palace, there was a hole that she could fit through if she squatted down. Sunny was small, so she was able to squeeze herself in. 

The two of them planned to be discreet, but their discretion slowly faded as they infiltrated the inner palace. Looking from left to right with Aries's head sticking out of the door of the kitchen, her brows furrowed. 

The hallway was empty. 

"Sunny," called Aries in a whisper yell, holding Sunny's hand as they left the kitchen.
