A Mid-level (Middle-aged) Office Worker’s Laid-Back Industrial Revolution in Another World

Episode 110: Hidden Passage Discovery. and the furniture came.

As Takeo and Alice returned the horse to the stables and entered the front door of the Elvis mansion, Frederick was just there.

"Welcome back, Miss Alice, Master Takeo.

"I'm home, Frederick.

"Good day, Mr. Frederick. I'm back.

"Earlier, the furniture store contacted me and said I would bring the furniture in a few moments.

Right now, we're moving the bed out of your two rooms.

"Yes."

"I'm sorry to bother you.

Alice nods and Takeo thanks.

"So please do not return to the room and wait in the room until the furniture arrives.

"Okay.

Alice makes an understanding. But Takeo...

"I'd like to see you without a bed. Are you okay?

"I don't mind. The bed is now coming near our next main room, so entering the bedroom is fine.

"Okay.

Frederick left the two of them and went back to moving the bed.

"Because Master Takeo is going to see it?

"Yes, it was over when I got back when I moved in between, so I thought I'd feel the size of having no big stuff.

and Takeo laughs bitterly.

"Okay. I'm in the guest room.

"Yes, I'm coming.

------------------------

Takeo went back to his bedroom, looked inside and said something.

"Wide!

How much area did that bed occupy...

For a while Takeo enjoyed the large bedroom with a great view of Bo.

"Speaking of which, it used to be in some kind of book."

and Takeo casually walks lightly tapping the wall of where the bed was.

"Con"... "Con"... "..." Con "...

Takeo puts his arms together and worries lightly.

and

"Master Takeo, what are you worried about?

Soon Alice was coming.

"Oh? Are you here?

"I was free because Takeo wouldn't come to the guest room.

Alice looks like "deal with me".

"Ha, I'm sorry about that.

Takeo laughs bitterly.

"So, what are you worried about?

"Is there something here?

Takeo puts his hand where there was no sound when he slammed the wall earlier.

"... why, did they think so?

"No.

In books and other stories, noble mansions have hidden passages... so I see settings like that, so it's here too? Because I thought that if I casually tapped the wall lightly, it would only make no noise here. After all? and.

"I see... you're half right about what Takeo thinks.

"What do you mean?

"This room has a hidden passageway... an evacuation passageway.

But it's not there, is it?

Alice goes by the door to Takeo's study.

"It's here.

and shifted the desk next to the door to the side. Press the wall to open it like a door, and it looks like there are stairs while the room appears.

"Ooh."

Takeo admires.

"By the way, where does this go?

"You're a firewood shed.

In Alice's words, Takeo said, "Loyalty? I think," but it doesn't make sense to say, so I stayed thinking, "Are you with me at all times..."

"There are several other passageways in the mansion.

Would you like to go check it out?

"No, I guess I don't need to know.

... Can you open this from the other side?

"No, I can't open it because I don't have a handle.

Besides, my desk also has the role of Cannuki, so I can't open it.

"I see you're well thought out.

"Yeah. I can't evacuate because there are a lot of problems.

"Right.

and at the end of Alice's explanation.

"Lady Alice, Lady Takeo. The furniture store has arrived.

and Frederick came.

------------------------

"We look forward to using you again.

Left to say, the furniture store manager left.

Takeo and Alice were dropping off a line of furniture shops at the front door and coming back to the bedroom.

"Master Takeo, the bed is here!

and Alice dives into her new bed.

"Ha, you smell brand new.

"Yes! It smells good.

Alice gobbles in bed.

Takeo sat back in bed and looked at Alice smiling like that.

"With that said, you had a couch and a small desk in Takeo's study.

"Yeah. Looks like the manager distracted me and brought it to me.

Did you find out I looked like I wanted something in the store?

Takeo laughs bitterly.

"You wouldn't use that couch much, would you?

"Oh? Why?

"Huh? Because Master Takeo will work at his desk.

The couch is for visitors, isn't it?

"That's my nap place.

"Even though you have a bed in the next room?

Alice said, "Why? face."

"Alice, hasn't the lady ever slept on the couch?

"You don't. Because it can't be.

"Oh, is that right?

So let's experience it.

and Takeo stands up with a pillow for himself.

Let Alice also stand and head to the study.

"Yes, Miss Alice. Please lie down.

Previously, a desk was placed behind the room towards the hallway side, as decided, with a bookshelf lined up between the walls.

I have a desk and a couch opposite my desk.

Alice protests with her jitsy eyes, but leans reluctantly.

And, Takeo puts his coat on Alice.

"? Master Takeo?

"It's a little cold to sleep, isn't it?

I'll wake you up later.

Saying Takeo himself sits at his desk and starts writing something down with a pen on the paper (notebook) he bought yesterday.

Alice looked at Takeo all the time, but in time she heard him sleep.
