The tea leaves were to be searched for again by everyone.\n
Mr. Meera replied that he had no problem, but his face was a little drawn.
I was planning on going to the next store, but I hear Mr. Luiselia has business.
We were talking about going to the woods earlier.
Is this because it didnāt go as planned?
Break up with Meera and the others in front of the store and head back to the square.
Still all kinds of weird.
Besides, even the 5 people who were in the store got suspicious.
As we head back to the square, we look around at the stores selling vegetables.
Vegetables are in the pile, so thereās no need for it.
As a result of each other, we didnāt feel like going back to the square right away.
āI wonder which Kara is?
As far as what you did earlier, you seem to be helping me.
But I donāt get an answer when I think about why.
Does she suspect anything about Mr. Meera?
āKara is an adventurer who moved to this town two years ago. Until then, they were adventurers in two neighboring towns.ā
Mr. Ratlua gives me information about Mr. Kara.
I just donāt know much about adventurers.
āIf youāre an adventurer, do you travel often?
āWhen you want to increase your rewards or, well, get away with a little troubleā
āTrouble?ā
āAhhh, uh, menās and womenās issues and all that stuff between brothers⦠you know?
āSomehow, but I understandā
There seems to be no discomfort with the fact that it has moved.\n
Finished looking at the store and into the path of few people.
Look around, make sure itās okay, and then ask Mr. Ratlua.
āUm, control failed, didnāt it?
āOh, yeah. Why?ā
āBecause it doesnāt match the image of the organization we were talking about because of how Meera and the others are doing. Even so, given the fact that we keep adventurers company, it is still inferred that we are prepared. Given that, I thought something was wrong with the organization.ā
āYou mean the thing that caused the problem was the control?
āI donāt know, but it feels like Meera and the others are in a hurry to get things going.ā
āSure, youāre under the impression that Meera and the others are in a hurry. But that restraint was really nothing. I did leave some paperwork behind.ā
āIs that a paperwork?
āYeah, but they didnāt make any sense at all. Seiselk has also confirmed this.ā
āIf itās not a document, how about money?
āMoney? Was I talking about the fact that I did have a safe and left a little. But thatās not a lot of money either.ā
āIs a controlled place a private house?
āSure, it was a former merchant. Itās a pretty big building.ā
Could it be a big building?
āIs there any chance that something is hidden in the building?
āNo, I donāt think so. Iāve been through it thoroughly.ā
āReallyā¦ā¦ whatās going on with that place now?
āNow Iām sure Iām keeping an eye out because the problem hasnāt been solved yetā
āWatchā¦ā¦ how many people?
āUh, fewer people than at first, and now it was five or six,ā
āIs it the vigilante whoās watching?
āYeah, the adventurers were in on it, but thereās something about Meera and the others. Now itās just the vigilante.ā
āVigilante. Um, I told you I checked the location of the controls, but who did? \nāHmm? Oh, itās okay. The vigilantes are the only ones Iāve looked into, because the adventurers arenāt in.ā
āJust the vigilante⦠maybeā¦ā
āIvy?ā
I donāt know what to do, just my imagination with no evidence or anything.
I guess Iāll just talk about it for now.
āUm⦠are the vigilantes okay?
āVigilante? Could it be about the guys we checked? No, they said it was okayā¦ā
āHow did those people get into the vigilante?
āRecommendations from captains, deputy captains, and then noblesā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā
āNobleā
āYes, recommended by the noblesā¦ā
āUm, itās hard to sayā¦ā
āItās okay, I know what Iām trying to say. Yes, even the vigilante has a traitor.ā
Yes, it occurred to me that a well-prepared organization would be reaching out to vigilantes as well as adventurers.
Mr. Ratlua must have noticed that, too.
A little confused.
If you consider that the vigilante also has a traitor, there is a possibility that something is hidden in the former merchant.
The organization wants it back, but they canāt take action because of the lookout.
If you wait slowly, itās not too late because any of them will be out of watch.
But suppose the evidence youāre hiding is too important to waitā¦
How it works as an organization.
All you have to do is sharpen the manpower you break into watches.
Mr. Meera may be a throwaway pawn for the organization.
\nā⦠why?
āIt is easy for people who are trusted or respected to gather a variety of information. And when something happens, thereās nothing to suspect first, so you can get away with it safely.ā
āWellā¦ā¦ I have two people in mind, one who Borolda trusts. The other one is a resident of this town who doesnāt suspect anything.ā
āI donāt doubt⦠why not?
āEleven years ago, I saved the children of a family of adventurers being attacked by bandits because they didnāt care about their lives.ā
ā⦠the one who savedā
Someone who saved my life, kind of a word Iāve heard over and over in the last few days.
āHeās a town hero for bravely protecting a child even though he was injured.ā
