A glance down at his own suit brought the splotches to KID’s attention, and his worry spiked though he tried to keep that hidden.  His mind immediately started racing with the bits of medical knowledge he’d gathered since he’d started this ‘hobby’, and only glanced up when Hakuba started walking off.

“Don’t go far, Tantei.  Not only do we need to stay together, but if you’re bleeding that badly, we need to do something about it."  The thief frowned, starting to carefully follow.  The costumes and such were definitely useful, and KID looked as much at them as he could as he followed the detective.  Of all the places to hide, this was probably an excellent choice as far as increasing their chances for escape unnoticed.

"Yes… I think that you’re right,” Hakuba called back, pressing onward. He reached the restroom and leaned against the door frame, only then realizing just how dizzy he felt. The come down after the adrenaline rush was catching up to him in a very forceful way.

He flipped on the light switch, which only made the room somewhat brighter. Cheap wiring and light bulbs made the room eerie. Hakuba then stripped off his suit jacket and laid it on the back of the closed toilet, grimacing at the movement and the amount of blood that had soaked through his dress shirt. 

Turning on the water, Hakuba first washed his hands, a compulsion that was never quite far from him. He checked his watch, next, then leaned against the sink with the water running, hesitating…. before crumpling to the floor, unconscious.
