Chapter 86: 86
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 didn’t 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 there’s no need for it.
As a result of each other, we didn’t feel like going back to the square right away.
ā€œI wonder which Kara is?
As far as what you did earlier, you seem to be helping me.
But I don’t get an answer when I think about why.
Does she suspect anything about Mr. Meera?
ā€œKara 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 don’t know much about adventurers.
ā€œIf you’re an adventurer, do you travel often?
ā€œWhen you want to increase your rewards or, well, get away with a little troubleā€
ā€œTrouble?ā€
ā€œAhhh, uh, men’s and women’s issues and all that stuff between brothers… you know?
ā€œSomehow, 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 it’s okay, and then ask Mr. Ratlua.
ā€œUm, control failed, didn’t it?
ā€œOh, yeah. Why?ā€
ā€œBecause it doesn’t 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€
ā€œYou mean the thing that caused the problem was the control?
ā€œI don’t know, but it feels like Meera and the others are in a hurry to get things going.ā€
ā€œSure, you’re 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€
ā€œIs that a paperwork?
ā€œYeah, but they didn’t make any sense at all. Seiselk has also confirmed this.ā€
ā€œIf it’s not a document, how about money?
ā€œMoney? Was I talking about the fact that I did have a safe and left a little. But that’s not a lot of money either.ā€
ā€œIs a controlled place a private house?
ā€œSure, it was a former merchant. It’s a pretty big building.ā€
Could it be a big building?
ā€œIs there any chance that something is hidden in the building?
ā€œNo, I don’t think so. I’ve been through it thoroughly.ā€
ā€œReally…… what’s going on with that place now?
ā€œNow I’m sure I’m keeping an eye out because the problem hasn’t been solved yetā€
ā€œWatch…… how many people?
ā€œUh, fewer people than at first, and now it was five or six,ā€
ā€œIs it the vigilante who’s watching?
ā€œYeah, the adventurers were in on it, but there’s something about Meera and the others. Now it’s just the vigilante.ā€
ā€œVigilante. Um, I told you I checked the location of the controls, but who did? \nā€œHmm? Oh, it’s okay. The vigilantes are the only ones I’ve looked into, because the adventurers aren’t in.ā€
ā€œJust the vigilante… maybeā€¦ā€
ā€œIvy?ā€
I don’t know what to do, just my imagination with no evidence or anything.
I guess I’ll just talk about it for now.
ā€œUm… are the vigilantes okay?
ā€œVigilante? Could it be about the guys we checked? No, they said it was okayā€¦ā€
ā€œHow did those people get into the vigilante?
ā€œRecommendations from captains, deputy captains, and then noblesā€¦ā€¦ā€¦ā€¦ā€¦ā€
ā€œNobleā€
ā€œYes, recommended by the noblesā€¦ā€
ā€œUm, it’s hard to sayā€¦ā€
ā€œIt’s okay, I know what I’m 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 can’t take action because of the lookout.
If you wait slowly, it’s not too late because any of them will be out of watch.
But suppose the evidence you’re hiding is too important to wait…
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€œā€¦ why?
ā€œIt is easy for people who are trusted or respected to gather a variety of information. And when something happens, there’s nothing to suspect first, so you can get away with it safely.ā€
ā€œWell…… I have two people in mind, one who Borolda trusts. The other one is a resident of this town who doesn’t suspect anything.ā€
ā€œI don’t doubt… why not?
ā€œEleven years ago, I saved the children of a family of adventurers being attacked by bandits because they didn’t care about their lives.ā€
ā€œā€¦ the one who savedā€
Someone who saved my life, kind of a word I’ve heard over and over in the last few days.
ā€œHe’s a town hero for bravely protecting a child even though he was injured.ā€
ā€œWhat happened to the bandit who attacked you?
ā€œThey’re all dead… why not?
ā€œā€¦ā€¦ā€¦ā€¦ā€¦ā€¦ā€¦ā€¦ā€¦ā€¦ā€¦ā€¦ā€¦ā€¦ā€¦ā€¦ā€¦ā€¦ā€¦ā€¦ā€¦ā€¦ā€¦ā€¦ā€¦ā€¦ā€¦ā€¦ā€¦ā€¦ā€¦ā€¦ā€¦ā€¦ā€¦ā€¦ā€¦ā€¦ā€¦ā€¦ā€¦ā€¦ā€¦ā€¦ā€¦ā€¦ā€¦ā€¦ā€¦ā€¦ā€¦ā€¦ā€¦ā€
…………
Oh, I shut up.
But if that’s a selfie, I’d have been ready for 11 years.
Is that it?
ā€œUm, how many years ago was the organization recognized?
ā€œI guess it was seven years ago for sure. A woman who was about to be enslaved found out there was an organization for running away.ā€
Seven years ago, four years before that, a selfie?
I guess it’s too soon.
But even though it was recognized seven years ago, the activity has been around for a long time.
I see the square.
Turning his gaze to the tent, he sees Mr. Seiselk.
You’re early today. I think all the time, but I don’t see Mr. Marl Leak and Mr. Low Creek.
Did something happen and only Mr. Seiselk came back?
