Kyo finished eating and left to go to his room. After getting ready for bed, he removed the bell from his wrist and placed it on a bedside table, figuring it would not be needed again until morning. The events of the day had exhausted him, so he fell asleep rather quickly, mere minutes after he lay down and closed his eyes.
