Chapter 17
Finishing the remaining five people’s interrogation one by one, I extracted information little by little.The second one goes like this.“I had a very good chat with Mr. Kozun.”When I crossed my hands on top of the table, the young man completely withered in fear.“Ah, well… anything about me…”I smile cheerfully.“If you also answer honestly, let’s have you return home safely. If you tell even a single lie….”Behind me, Monza starts transformation into werewolf.Looking at the youngman with a pale face almost on the verge of fainting, I smiled.“Understand?”Surprisingly the interrogation proceeded smoothly.Just as expected, when it came to the main point, they shut their mouth.Seems like they are holding in a big secret which is not to be uttered with a small amount of threat.Well, what to do.
After finishing interrogation, Monza mutters looking at the memo.\n
“All of them have different age and occupation. I thought they definitely are a ‘group’, but I lost my confidence.”“The second guy, wasn’t he acquainted with the first guy? It is probable that others also had mutual acquaintance.”Adjusting my appearance by looking in the mirror, I continued.“Those guys were loitering near werewolves holding silver knives, they cannot be unrelated. Well they are still hiding something.”Monza grins lifting her head from the memo.“Then, shall we torture them?”
I refused Monza, who can say such disturbing things with a smiling face.“If we overdo things, then we will give rise to the antipathy of citizens. It is almost the limit, release everyone.”“E,eh? Is it alright?”Monza makes an anti-climactic face. Seems a little disappointed.So I gave her a new order.“Of course, there is no need to send them straight back. From today, for a while, tail them thoroughly.”“Ah, the wolf-escort. I’m happy.”(TN: okuriookami-A wolf-escort is a ‘gentleman’, who escorts a woman home, only to make a pass at her)Monza clapped happily, but was suddenly puzzled.“In my squad, there are only four…” \n“I will lend you squads of Woddo-jiisan and Hammam. Stick after them in shifts with twelve people. Is that fine?”“Yes, commander”
Leaving the rest of the things to Monza, I returned to my room on second floor.“Vaito-dono”Just as I thought, immediately the viceroy Airia rushed in with a pale face.Behind her, Faan-oneechan shrugged her shoulders. It seems like, there were sufficient exchanges during the interrogation.Airia not in her usual state of mind, cane closer to me.Well, that would be so. Currently she is in submission to the demon army, and that demon army has slaughtered the compatriot Mirarudia army, her situation is complicated.“Looks like there was a war outside the city, please tell me the details! Also, what about those men?”
Offering her a seat, I started explanation sitting down.“Because four hundred of Tuban soldiers attacked, our army repelled them. The men arrested were the people who were loitering around the north gate. All of them were armed with silver knives.“Silver knife..?”Airia made a dubious face, but soon realized the meaning.“No way, attacking the werewolves?”“I don’t know, but it can’t be helped to be perceived like that.” \nWell, the rest depends on the work of Monza and others.
